The Royal Master isno tire for the man who buys a ca: ro drive for only one year. It costs too much and lasts zoo long. Bu: if conti- nued safety at any speed and through any conditions are what you want, the Royal Master is an and an‘ economy. y 1 1 THE other day in Montreal, we stopped a taxi equipped with Royal Masters, back and from. Ir wasn't a particularly luxurious taxi and it had cos: fifty dollars extra to give it Royal Masters. Bu: the driver said they paid him.
