Mr.. Prichard then brought up
the question of a new building for

couldn't recognize aAood story wher

they saw it in manuscript form.
1t would be different in c.
but, of course. a personal visit to the
publishers woulI be better tran nego-
tiations by mail. So the doctor had
decided to take Brother Wright to
Chicago company which handled 4
great book business, and which ought
to be glad to have chance at buy
ing the minister's manuscript
Besides-and here was where Bro
ther and Sister Wright opened their
astonished eyes widest-the doctor
was going to take seven hundred dol
lars along with him to pay for get
ting the book out, if the Chicago firm
hesitated!
So the country minister and the
country doctor went to Chicago.
The doctor knew of the company,
having bought books listed in cata-
log which it issued twice year and
always mailed to him. The books
were good, yet cost him less money
than other book concerns asked. That,
he argued, proved the company to be
alert. 1t would, no doubt, be glad to
print another book as good as the
minister's.
But when, after breakfast the
morning following their arrival, they
found their way to the "big book COM
panv', even their rural ideas of SIM
plicity received a shock to discover
that the company did not occupy fine
quarters on one of the principal busi-
ness streets of the city. Instead, its
"store" was great loft in rather
dingy-looking building in the jobbing
district, and the private office OF the
owners was lucky little room, not
so large as the minister's study at
home
Still, the doctor had come there to
sell his minister's book, and ne tack
led the task boldly. He won, too-but
not without much argument.
The final outcome was that the
company decided to bring out "That
Printer of Udell's"-refused by wise
publishers without number, but now
said to have gone through editions to-
taling several million copies.
The book people employed unusual
methods in marketing their venture,
however. They printed one entire
chapter, with full-page illustrations,
and bound these pages into their next
catalog.
Orders began pouring in for THAT
Printer of Udell's".
The young rninister-author found
his growing royalties offering him an
opportunity to take rest. He built
a little cabin, he and his friends, down
en- the White River in Taney County.
There the ailing preacher and his
faithful wife went for a years rest
end to give the husband the benefit
of continuous outdoor life among the
rines of the Ozarks. The clergyman
began to mend in health. and also ne
began writing a new story, urged to
the task by the letters from the Chi
cago firm.
"The Shepherd
the result--a story of the very spot
where the young writer was fighting
his battle for life and strength. The
Chicago book people employed like
original advertising methods for the
new work. Everybody who knows
about Harold Bell Wright books is &C
auainted with the story of the success
of that second novel. Others have fol-
lowed in yearly succession, all sue
cessful, until Wright is today one OF
the most widely read of living au-
thors.

line has ample head room and yet appears
low and speedy.
The bodies themselves. built in the
Mitchell Body plant, show an unusually
high degree of finish and workmanship,
which gives to the whole car an atnos-
phere of authoritative style that has
hitherto been seen only In the highest
priced custom-built models.
The Mitchell body display indicates the
unusual lengths to which the company has
gone in the way OF sturdy construction
and fine finish. not only on the outside
but In the upholstery as well. The latter
is especially noteworthy in that the up
holstery is applied with all the attention
TO detail and fine craftsmanship Of hand

1t is freely predicted by those who have
seen the Mitchell display that there will
be many imitators Of these attractive
styles as soon as production problems can
be overcome. But the Mitchell company
Is well content with this because they feel
that the same energetic progressiveness
which brought out the cars will father
other innovations to retain for them the
leadership in this field.

MARMON BUILDS
CARS DAILY
At COMMODORE
IAN Original and Interesting Exhibit by
indianapolis Company in
Hotel Lobby.

Building a motor OF the Marmon "a in
the lobby OF the Commodore Hotel three
times day. by Bert Dingley and two men
from the Nordyke & Marmon Company
factory IS one OF the unique demonstra-
tons given the New York public dur
ing show week. The exhibition, in which
the motor is torn down and built up three
times a day, is a splendid demonstration
of the fineneSs of manufacture and york
manship. the absolute accuracy Of fit, and
the utter simplicity of this high efficiency
lnotor.
In assembling the motor there IS not a
part that needs any hand fitting. Even
the shimless main bearings OF the massive
crankshaft, where variation greater than
the half of a thousandth Of an inch is not
permitted, never have any hand fitting.
These bearings are laid in the crankcase;
the crankshaft is then placed in the bear
lngs, the other half Of the bearings and
caps are added and bolts and nuts drawn
tight. In conventional designs there is
vast amount OF hand fitting required for
this work and very much time.
Technically trained men and layInen will
be nightly impressed at the finish of the
hidden parts The connecting rods are
machined all over Their making requires
sixty-five machine operations. Every single
rod is weighed and there is no variation in
weight between rods greater than one
fourth of an ounce. All this is to insure
proper balance between all the rods, that
tho motor as whole may be up to Mar
mon standards of balance.
Tho two-section crankcaSe, as well as
the under oil pan and the cover of the
valve mechanism. are OF cast aluminium.
Each section is hand scraped inside and
every bit of the outer surface of these
parts is enamelled and baked, assuring
"A motor that can be kept clean with
the slightest care. The same finish is APP
piled TO the cylinder assemblies, which are
cast of gray iron in two sections of three
cylinder sleeves each with water jackets.
By it's adoption the Marmon "a engine is
greatly sinlplified. The ease with which
rthis unusually accurate engine can be as
senbled is proof OF the efficiency OF the
design when viewed from this angle.
Bert Dingley. who is conducting the
unique exhibition. is the same Dingley
who used to burn up the track and win
races. He will be remembered by the
veterans as the man who beat out Joe
Tracy In the 1909 Vanderbilt elimination
by forty-eight seconds. He was N the
French Gordon Bennett race Of the same
year. and also performed we'll at Fair
mount Park race. He has been an i'm
portant part Of the Nordyke & Marmon
organization ever since the completion OF
the conipany's Liberty Motor contracts.
Before that he was even more important
to the company. for he was the chief gov
eminent inspector located at the Indian
