OaauBBally
Same people seem to think
tbat they ean prosper ie business
even il their borne towns do not
go ahead. At least, they are very
unwilling to take hold themselves
and do anything for com-ounitjf
progress. Of oourse they can find
iostancees of people who havs
done well in business in communities that were backward and
unprogressive. But in suob cases,
it is almost always true that
people would bave done a great
deal better if their home towns
bad gone ahead
There are eharp limits to tbe
growth that oan be accomplished
in a stationary or back war k town.
But in a growing town, where tbe
atmosphere of development ant}
progress is constantly manifest,
the chances for successful bus!
ness are greatly increased, ljfc
will pay for people to devote soma
portion of tbeir thought and energy and a little money to the
problem of community development.

Au    entirely  new   plan   for
manufacturing, selling and adver
tising tires and  rubber goods is
tore-cast by the Mainardy Bubber

work of experienced Bubber
manufacturers and expert tire
merchandising and advertising

large patronage in local fields.
The plan presents many logical
and much needed economies, both

of tires It promises great savings
to coat to the consumer.
Mr. Mainardy is doing a
needed public job in a line of
manufacturing which affects the
pocket book of nearly everybody.
Much will be heard about Mr.
Mainardy'a new business to the
personal profit and general satiafac
tion of the motoring public.
