How much should I give
to make this a better world?
A CERTAIN man in New York filled out hi#
income tax report
It showed an income so large that his tax was
53%. And his total gifts to church and char-
ity for the year were $148.
Think of it—thousands spent for luxuries and
pleasure for himself; and $148 to leave the world
a little better than he found itl
Most of us do better than that; but not so very
much better.
Our average daily gift for all church causes is
sr-
—less than we spend for daily papers
—less than a local telephone call
—less than a third of the day's car fare
—less than 3 cents a day
No wonder that 80% of the ministers of America
are paid less than $20 a week. No wonder that
the church hospitals turn away thousands of sick
people a year. NoWooder that China has only
one doctor for every 400,000 people. No wonder
that every church board and charity society is
forever meeting deficits, forever passing the hat.
It isn't because we an selfish; it isn't because we
don't want to help. If s just because no one has ever put
up a great big program to us, and asked us to think of the
work of the church in a systematic businesslike way.
The Interchurch World Movement represents the united
program of thirty denominations. They have surveyed
their whole task, no business could have done it better.
They have budgeted their needs; no business could have
a more scientific budget. They have united to prevent the
possibility of waste and duplication. At least a million dol-
lars will be saved by the fact that thirty individual cam-
paigns are joined in one united effort.
And they come to the men or women who love America
—to you— this week asking you to use them as the chan-
nel through which a certain definite part of your income
can be be applied to make this a better world.
Only you can determine what part of your income that
ahould be.
It's a good time right now to answer that question.
We're passing through the world just once; how much
better will the world be because you paaaed through?

WHAT a difference in
these motor-car days,
when every point in the
county is hardly mere than
"just around the corner."
People's ideas are chang-
ing, too.
They're beginning to fig-
ure out how much it is cost'
ing them to keep a car. And
the man who is doing the
greatest amount of figuring is
the man with the moderate-
price car.
ti
There still seems to be a
notion in some quarters that
any tire is good enough for
a small car.
That's not what the man
who owns it think*.
In recommending and sell-
s ing U. S. Tires we are trying
to see his side of the propo-
sition—finding out what he
wants in a tire and giving
him that.
HI
Large cr small, U. S. Tires
are built to cnlyr one stand-
ard of quality—the standard
that produced the first
straight side automobile tire,
the first pneumatic truck
tire.
Every tire that bears the
name "U. S." is built the
best way its makers know
how. It isn't the car, but
the man who owns the car,
that counts with the oldest
and largest rubber concern
in the world.

As representatives of U. S.
Tires in this town, we offer
you the benefit of our experi-
ence and advice in settling
your tire problem.
