AEROPLANE flying
/~\ imposes unfore
seen and trying conditions on a watch.
The aeroplane vibrates constantly. It
tilts at all angles. Often it lands with
a jolt that would ruin the balance-wheel
of many a watch.
The Wright Brothers had most
unsatisfactory experiences with all the
watches they tried in Europe and
America until they adopted the
Howard.
The Howaib Watch is the finest practical
timepiece in the world.
Howard watchmakers make and adjust every
Howard as a fine watch. Cased at the factory
and timed in its own case.
Printed ticket fixes the price—$40 to Si 50.
Let us show you this distinctive watch.
