HN BOYD DUNLOP made the first practicable pneumatic tyre in 1888. Universal though the manufacture of fyres has now become, DUNLOP still stands supreme. For half-a-century DUNLOP has been associated with every progressive step in tyre manufacture, To-day, the DUNLOP FORT TYRE because of its 2,000 road-gripping teeth of solid rubber-is the most com- fortable, safest, speediest and most durable tyre ever produced unchallengeably "THE WORLD'S MASTER TYRE".

Gadd's children, and when she knew of the tragedy in which my niece was involved she said she would like to do everything she could to help.
"When Cissie leaves hospital with her baby, who will be christened Edward George-George because it was her fiance's name-she will go and see Lady Game and talk over her future with her."
