Is
cttS&jr Your Guess?
The mysterious, revolving tire in our window is
baffling thousands. If you haven't seen it don't
miss it. Howard Thurston, the ' great magician,
spent years in perfecting this illusion. It spins in
B the air with no apparent means of support. You
say it can't be done, yet it spins before your very
eyes. A few people have solved the mystery; come
1 and see if you can.
7 Here's an extra feature: The first motorist who
txi )Jr uesses nearest the number of revolutions the tire
makes in a day of 10 hours gets a Miller Geared-to
ilpH the-Road Tire free, in the size to fit his car. Contest
closes Saturday night. With your guess, leave
your license number and make of car. Get your
guess in early.

Courtesy
Telephone courtesy means more than mere
politeness. It means consideration for the feelings
and convenience of others.
This is just as important in business as in
social intercourse. In a telephone conversation
the party to whom you are talking forms his
judgment of you entirely by what you say and
how you say it.
Good manners and amiability never fail to
make a favorable impression and greatly facili
tate good telephone service.
