IMS SUPERIOR HUE i Local Branch of Famous Company Is Best in the West, Says Manager. The new Goodyear Tire & Rubber cortipany's branch at 3120-26 West Second Sec-ond South street is being received -with general favor by the great army of in-termountain in-termountain tire dealers who swear by Goodyear tires. T. B. Trent, local manager of the Goodyear branch, when asked for a few of the important facts concerning his organization and the new building, said : "Our new home, being, as it is, the largest tire house between the Missouri river and the Pacific coast, is extremely extreme-ly well suited to the rapidly growing business which the Goodyear Tire & Rubber company always enjoys. ''Our quarters at o-V2 iSouth State street, from which we just moved, have been far too small for the last tw.o ! years; but, due to the limitations on wartime building, we were unable to make a satisfactory move. However, last spring and summer our present structure was erected, with the idea in mind of making it an ideal tire company's com-pany's branch. That this object was attained is shown by the exceptionally prompt service which wo are now able to give to the hundreds of service sta-tions sta-tions in the states of Idaho, Utah, western Wyoming and eastern Nevada. "Jt seems that never before have Goodyear tires been giving such tremendously tre-mendously long mileage, and never before be-fore has the public so appreciated fhe excess value which they obtain in Goodyear tires. "Our sales force covering the local territory now consists of fourteen men, and every dealer, in every hamlet, no matter how small, is visited regularly. ''Our building, which consists of three stories and a full basement, has probably more storage space than four or five ordinary tire branches. But so tremendous a stock is carried that already al-ready there is little spare room. Our fifty-three employees are all animated by the wonderful Goodyear spirit, which knows no obstacles and which has put our company in the lead among the world 's great rubber companies. "The public is invited to call and see our institution, for such it really is, and inspect our huge stock of Goodyear automobile tires, tubes and accessories, Goodyear truck tires, Goodyear garden hose, steam hose, air hose, Goodyear transmission and conveyor belts. Neolin soles, Wingfoot heels and a huge amount of other goods. " I
