plant of the B. F. Goodrich Company.
at Akron. Ohio, the largest rubber fac
tory in the world. The Goodrich insti-
tuition was already the worlds largest
plant devoted to the manufacture of
rubber goods. but with the immensely
increased capacity provided by the re-
cent additions. which are in themselves
larger than most rubber factories. the
Goodrich plant now ranks far ahead-be-
comes veritable giant of the indus
trial world.
An idea of the immensty Of the Good
rich factory may be gained when 1t II
said that the group of fifty-seven build
ings composing the plant have floor

that one would have to travel three
and eight-tenths miles in going once
around the grounds which the buildings
occupy.
Unlike many industries of the day,
the business of the B. f. Goodrich Com
pany has none Of the characteristics of
mushroom growth. 1t has not sprung
up overnight, nor is ii the result of alb
normal conditions. 1t has been built up
gradually for many years. in accord
anco with the soundest principles. The
so!idity and pcrmanence of the new
buildings as we'll as the others compos-
ing the group Is characteristic of the
whole Goodrich institution.
Steady and natural growth of the
company's business in the general lines
of rubber products is the chief factor
which made enlargement of the plant
necessary.
The largest Of the new buildings is

Besides being proper it gives anima-

Do not assist a lady into your car as
II you were elevating wish bone. Grasp
her under the elbow, with your fingers

her to rest firmly on your support and
also permits you to direct her toward

one of my favorite ideas that women
depend entirely too much on balustradeS

Popularity Of Touring Body With
Only Two Entrance Doors
Led to New Design.
WORKED LONG ON PLANS
Great Demand For Machine
Useful in All Seasons Testi-
fies to Success Of Venture.
BY GEORGE A. KJSSEL.

The most successful Inventions are
those that combine, in a simple and con-
venient Fway. something useful. attrac-
tive. and onomical-something that
looks as we'll and serves as we'll at less
cost than the same purpose was for-
merly served.
The all-year car is one OF this class
of inventions, and on account OF the
warmth with which the public has ac-
cepted the idea it has been suggested
that story of its origin and develop
ment would prove interesting.
At the 1914 automobile shows the
Kissel Motor Car Company presented
as a novelty-not as standard-a new
style Of open touring body which had
but two entrance doors and a divided
front seat with corridor between.
This model not only was subject of
much interest and comment, but a
great many orders were taken for it.
Adopted AS Standard.
In fact so many compliments and in
Quiries were received from this design
that it was decided to adopt it as
standard. 1t was introduced as such in
May, 1914. That was the germ Of the
all-year car idea.
With two doors and q. divided front
perfect a two-in-one cara car that
would be a real high-grade closed coach
In winter and a. stylish touring car in
summer. We saw this opportunity the
moment we placed our o. h. on the two
door car, ami began to work out the de-
tains.
For two months our body engineers
labored at nothing else. There were OBJ
plans were rejected. 1t had to be a
thorough job-something that would
look just as good and serve as COM
pletely In its winter form as in its sum-
mer form.
1t was determined that the only way
10 build this model and build it so IL
would dovetail as it should. was to con-
struct the two halves as one. This we
is not a mere lid-it Is part Of the orig
inal job-removable at the owners will
and without squeaks, rattles, or
draughts.
Great Demand For Car.
The public announcement Of the ALL
Year car was made in the middle Of
August 1914, in both the newspapers
and magazines. How it was received
is best indicated in the fact that in
New York city alone more than $50 in
uuiries were recorded in the first two
days following the publication OF the
advertisement. Throughout the lsl4-1i
season the demand for 1t was so great
that We could fill only about one-thrd
of the actual orders received. There
was no other manufacturer building
anything Of the kind, but all ack-
nowledged that it would increase the
winter use of cars wonderfully. That
they were sincere is best proved by the
fact that more than a score of them
are featuring some sort of a detach.
