MADE ROUND TRIP
between TWO BIG CITIES
Oscar Burris and Party in Columbia
Report Roads in Perfect Condi-
ton for San Francisco Record

IF there was time that any persons
wished to make one of the most de-
lightful automobile trips this IS the
time to go to san Francisco overland,
according to Oscar Burris, who with
party of friends made the round trip
between Los Angeles and san Fran-
cisco and returned last week.
Mr.. Burris and wife. accompanied py
Harold stone. the well known driver of
the Columbia racing car, and his Wlte,
made the trip in the new Columbil
purchased by Mr.. Burris recently ana
he reports the most perfect road condl-
tions prevailing almost the entire rout"'
This trip made twenty-six times that
Stone has Travelled the roads between
the two big cities and he states th't
this is the moment for any ampltIous
automobile driver or dealer to go aIIcr
the San Francisco record.
No attempt was made to take any
records by the Burris party, the TRIP
| being one solely of pleasure, stopping
en- route going and coming at inc
various places of interest along me
road, with side trips to all the noted
cities and towns convenient to the
! highway. .. H..
! The Columbia performed its part ia
the utmost satisfaction Of its owner
| not a particle of trouble being eN-
perienced i'm either the up or down
| trip. not even the hood being removed
for any cause and in many portions o.
the road great bursts of speed were de-
veloped, and 1t afforded all of the party
the greatest pleasure.

INSPIRATION OF THE
KING OF AUTO TRACK
Mrs. Barney OIdfieId Authority on
Automobile Records and Ever
Inspiring Spirit of Her
Husband

A very dainty, very pretty, hand
somely gowned and sumptuously jew
eled little woman, gifted by nature
with all the charms of person and in
dividuality which make woman the
most admired of all the creations OF
nature. with complexion radiant in the
colors of good health; charming
manner, inviting and reposed and you
meet Mrs. Barney Oldheld, wife OF the
most famous automobile racing expert
on the face of the globe.
Destitute of the slightest affeetation,
walking encyclopedia upon the sub
iect of automobiles and track records,
an authority upon all American events,
and an enthusiastic follower of the
work of her husband, Mrs. Oldfield af-
fords those fortunate enough to have
the pleasure of her acquaintance a
most delightful experience.
Never does her husband go into q
race or event with his automobile but
Mrs. Oldfield is his inspiration, and
with her kindly smile and good wishes
he is sent away knowing that in the
vast assemblages that greet him ana
his car, there is one loyal soul with
eager eyes following him every inch of
| the track, and hoping that he may
bring back to him and to her the re-
suit of the ambition which led him to
| the event.
With most pardonable enthusiasm
good-natured Barney attributes most
of his success of late to the coaching
and inspiration of the wife who sees
in him alone all for which the world
was made.
Driving her handsome white Over
land won by Barney at Indianapolis,
and which he presented to her as an
other trophy of his work, Mrs. Oldfield
makes one of the most picturesque fig
ures to be seen upon the streets OF
Los Angeles. With its handsome gold
platings on clutches, levers, hubs and
| furnishments, it is one of the most
beautiful pieces of workmanship ever
seen in this section of the country.
Where Barney and his wife go, there
the little Overland travels, and IN the
car Mrs. Oldfield finds much of the
pleasure of her wide travels, although
She never endeavors to emulate the
good mans ideas of speed. On the con-
trary there is little danger at any time
of Mrs. OldfeId ever having any ar
gument with the constabulary as TO
violations of the speed ordinances. Mrs.
Oldfeld leaves with her husband and
his cars today for Bakersfield, where
Barney is to give an exhibition on the
track of that city tomorrow.

MOON DRIVER STOPS
A RUNAWAY HORSE
Dashes After GalIoping Dobbin, Pulls
Across Street and Blows
Smoke in His
Face

A new method of stopping runaway
horses by automobile was successfully
tried out in st. Louis last week Phil
Wells, the race driver, was trying out
one of the 1910 Moon forty-fives in the
unfinished state of test cars when the
opportunity occurred.
Left by a careless boy united at the
curb, a grocer's horse of too spirited
disposition started off down the street
at a mad, free gallop. Wells went
after old Dobbin in the Moon and with
in few blocks was able to pass him
safely. Then the racing man took a
position with his car directly in front
Of the running horse and gradually
slackened speed. The horse threatened
to dive into the back of the car, but
was met by a cloud Of oil smoke that
came out of the exhaust in response
to a mysterious touch from the car

Retlres from His Firm

A change has been made in the firm
of Bekins-C Corey Motor Car company
in the withdrawal of Richard N. Corey
from all connection with the company,
his interest being assumed by the re-
naming partners, Messrs. Bekins and
Walter Williams, the latter being the
active manager of the company.
In what new enterprise Mr. Corey
will engage he has not yet decided,
having several things in view, but his
well known sterling ability and integ-
rity will lead him to success wherever
he may decide to locate. He has been
one of the most energetic and enthu-
siastic promoters of the merits of the
two-cycle American Simplex and Atlas
cars, in which he and his copartners
have been associated since early in
the present year His many friends
will wish him the good fortune to
which he is entitled wherever he may
locate

Noiseless Cars the Thing

Gears which are practically noise
less in operation have become common
enough not to attract the atlentlon
they did a few seasons ago.
Indeed, a machine which is unusu-
ally noisy will not sell in this country
at the present time, no matter Wnat
its merits may be-" says d. b. Rose
of the Elmore car agency.
"While uniformity of workmanship
and adjustment of parts are respon-
sible for much of the reduction OF
noise proper especially is this the case
with the Elmore, which has less NOV
ing parts than any other car"

man. This was too much for the horse,
which settled down to a walk. When
the grocer's boy, who had followed on
a trolley car, arrived the animal was
docile, fully subdued.
Perhaps the realization Of the utter
superiority OF the gasoline animal was
too much for him.
