HAD YOU THOUGHT
OF IT
Just how many of you men have p reseated
your wife with a checking account of her
own so that she can handle her own porsoa-
al accounts.
If we were in your shoes we'd do more.
We would increase that allowance and let-
her pay all the bills for home necessities
and that would relieve your mind of them
and besides she knows all items and would
be more likely to catch errors.
Why not give your wife a checking account'
as a Christmas Gift. It will be a big assis-
tance to you personally.

The McClaren "Mileage Strip"
what it is and what it means to you
AW I DEL continuous strip
of solid rubber running
through the center of the tread
and around the entire tire
that is the well known Mc-
Claren "Mileage Strip."
The greatest wear on any tire is
in the exact center of the tread.
It is at this point that the tread
wears fastest as it comes in full
contact with the road and re-
ceives all shocks. This is why
the McClaren "Mileage Strip"
was designed and is embodied
in all McClaren Tires.
In the Autocrat Cord or the
Allroad Fabric this "Mileage
Strip" bears the load prolongs
the life of the tire and gives
greater mileage.
Come in and let us show this
construction of the McClaren
Tire in detail let us show you
how the "Mileage Strip" makes
both the Autocrat Cord and
Allroad Fabric leaders of their
class in extra long life and ex-
tra mileage.
