MANY HIGH POINTS
IN MARMQh HISTORY

There have been many high points
in the history Of the Nordyke & Mar
mon Company. In the early sos, one
Of the regular visitors to the COM
pany's officers was Andrew Carnegie,
then an unknown salesman. In 1902,
the first Marmon motor car, product
of the genius of Howard Marmon,
chugged it's way down the streets
of Indianapolis. In January, 1916,
the famous Marmon "34" was in
troduced, briL. ing to American mo-
tor car engineering many new fea-
lures Of design, and innovations
which, in later years, have been
adopted as sound engineering prac-
tice by other motor car manufac-
turers. In 1911. Ray Har-oun drove
the Marmon Wasp" to first place in
the first 500 mile Sweepstakes race
on the Indianapolis Speedway. Dur
ing the war, Marmon became known
throughout the world for its eff
cheney and thoroughness in the man
ufacture of Liberty Aircraft engines
and, in 1918 won the champion
Liberty Motor Builders pennant
awarded by the government
to the manufacturing institution
which could build standard twelve
cylinder Liberty motors fastest in
relation to the quota assigned to
each factory. And in November, 1924
the latest chapter in the coiorful his
tory of the company was written
with the introduction of the new
Marmon, which, during the past
year, has achieved nationwide popu-
larity 49, ~.

Moore made one of the best

When election day rolls round. the
automobile is still more in the lime

voters to and from the polls. If the
average sought-after ,stay-at-home
voter were asked to go to his ward

'r'ar up on his hind legs, tell the
workers to go to thunder and then

and the Auto Gives It-Some Unusual Incl
dents

1t wasn't SO long ago that a candi-
GATE would hitch UP his horse, kiss
ms wife good bye and then be gone
tnree weeks on a campaign trip. He
might cover 10 or 20 miles day, but
II was rare proposition for him to
make speed like that, especially
where he had to stop and talk to this
man and that man.
Or course there was a greater de.
gree or Intimacy in the old days be-
tween the candidates and the voters.
Calls on few political workers were
deemed sufficient. A few speeches
might be made and that ended it. A
campaign couldn't be any more ex-
tensive because the means of loco
motion did not permit. Towns and
villages had to be visited where rail-
roads didn't run.
And then along came the primary.
II the primary law demands one
thing more than another it is the
necessity on the part of the candf-
GATE for office to get into personal
touch with the voter. 1t doesn't
matter whether a man is running for
county commissioner or United
States senator. he has to go through
the same formula. The only diff
ference is that the senatorial aspirant

aries, their first. second. third and

must be pledge that good roads will

be benefited thereby.
To sum it all up, the candidate uses
the automobile to see the voter. The

lower cost levels.
Automobile dealers who will pros
