P 1 HE new Premier enjoys the dis
tinction of being the only Ameri
can car that has an aluminum motor;
and it is also the only motor car that
automatically shifts the gears by means
of the Cutler-Hammer Magnetic Gear
shift. These two exclusive features,
together with its general engineering
fineness, give it certain operative advan
tages that can be understood only
through the medium of a demonstration
which is yours, at your convenience.

Compare the thick, powerful and elastic body
of the Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tube with
that of any ordinary tube.
See how the Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tube
valve-patch is -vulcanized in, instead of being
merely stuck on.
Try the Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tube in
water and note how it floats, as only a pure
gum tube will float.
Think how the Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tube
is made, not of one sheet of heavy rubber
merely, but of many thin sheets ouilt up
layer -upon 'layer and vulcanized inseparably
together.
We build Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubes to
be relatively as superior to ordinary tubes as
Goodyear Cord Tires are superior to-ordinary
tires.
Their initial cost is no more than the price
you are asked for tubes of less merit why
risk cosdycasing8 when such-sure protection
is available?
