APOLLO, one of the great divinities of Ancient Greece, was l credited, amongst other things, with bringing back sunshine and light in Spring.' He was the ideal of manly youth and-beauty; hence the patron of athletes. The Romans'looked upon him as the giver of Victory. In the Motor world to-day ', WOOD-MINE MOTOR TYRES . lymbolise the ideal of tyre construction; In the winter of War they have ' measured up to the most-exacting of conditions, and in. the sunshine of Peace, now happily ours, their outstanding features, endurance, speed, and reliability will prove a big economic advantage.
