Stearns Chassis to Be Here.

The importance with which the
manufacturers look upon the coming
automobile show to be held in Ard
more is demonstrated by the fact
that the Oklahoma Stearns company
is bringing a cut-out chassis OF the
popular Stearns-Knight motor for this
event. This chassis is a duplicate
of the car in every respect; each
working part is cut in half so as to
expose the action of this motor in
actual use. This is the first time in
the history of the Stearns company
that this chassis has ever been shown
outside of New York, Chicago, and
the larger cities, and at the present
time is on exhibition at Philadelphia.
There is a mechanical instructor
who accompanies this chassis in all
the big shows who will give a let
ture in Ardmore. People interested
i'm motor cars in general will fini
that his talk contains many points
of interest. He will go into detail
manufacturing methods; results OF
experimental work, and history OF
the difficulties that had TO be over
come on the cars of the early days,
, in order to reach the state Of perfec-
tion which the Stearns motor now en-
ioys. While this motor is not gen
orally used in America, they are
used extensively in Europe and Is

that country. The f. B. Stearns COM

years have ueen building the famous

rated the Oklahoma Stearns company,
and are to be congratulated on secur

the week OF the exhibition.
C. w. Hubert, manager OF thH
Oklahoma Stearns company, views
the coming automobile exposition
with a great deal of interest. He
has been connected with the auto
mobile business for the past fifteen
years, and has been in attendance
at the first and following automo-
mobile shows held in this country.
During the first automobile show
held in Madison Square Garden, New
York, during 1902, there was board
track built in a circle on the ground
floor. This was called the demon
strating pavilion" and at that time
il was well needed. AS people view
ing the earlier models were skeptical
as to whether it would even run or
not. and the motor manufacturers, by
way of dispelling this doubt would
seat their prospects in the car and

SAlESMEN TOO"
LONG CHANCES

II ever the resourcefulness and in
genuity of motor car manufacturers
and dealers were put to the test 1T
has been during the past few months,
in fact. ever since the famine in
eight cars hit the country. 1t is
safe to say that, as strategists, army
generals had nothing on automobile
traffic managers who successfully
coped with the situation.
The story OF how motor cars were
moved, despite the freight congestion,
is an interesting one, tinged with ro-
nance and adventure, and involving
the matching OF wit against wit.
With dealers echoing the clamor of
automobile buyers for immediate de-
livery of their cars, the big problem
become how to get the cars to their
destinations. And it was one of the
stiffest problems ever faced by the
builders of motor cars.
A big factor, of course, was the
unprecedented early demand for auto
mobiles, foretelling, as it did, rec
ord year for the industry. The
months of January and February, dull
in former years, have found the fac
tories working full force that season,
ard even putting in many hours OF
overtime. Production schedules have
been increased 10 take care of the
greater demand.
TIL task of the sales departments
is an easy one alongside that OF the
manufacturing and traffic depart
ments. 1t was not a question, ss IN
former years, of how TO sell the
cars. but rather of how to produce
them fast enough, and more especially
how to provide facilities for ship
ping the cars that were built. Most
of the big factories are now using
fiat cars and gondolas, shipping full
trainloads in this manner.

of about six miles per hour, to the
accompaniment of the Marine Band.
The demonstrators kept on the out
side of the building would seem oddly
out of place viewed alongside of the
present models Chauffeurs in leath'
er Jackets, leather leggins, goggles,
and gauntlet gloves, which at that
time indicated associations with mo-
tors were in general use, and to spin
out the avenue at the rate of ten
or twelve miles an hour would not
be complete without first donning par
aphernalia Of this kind, and the horn
was in constant use, notifying pedes'

bile. This was unnecessary, as at
that time you could hear them COM
