and the ability to shift easily and

HERBERT BAUGHMAN,
INVENTOR OF TIRE,
MANS BENEFACT0R
Ohioan Gets Great Satisfaction
OF Watching Trucks Load
ed With Tires

North Canton, O., March 11.-R-
A little grain Of corn planted in fer
tile, soil soon can be multiplied into
q whole field and the field multiplied
into q great harvest for a nation. The
planter Of the first grain has a sense
Of power, Of accomplishment.
He Is q great creators benefactor
to mankind.
So muses. Herbert Baughman as he
sits on the front porch of his home
here and watches huge truck loads of
automobile tires pass, because he has
a personal interest In each one Of the
tires.
It was more than 30 years ago when
the new tangled" automobile was
little else than q vague dream that
Baughman saw the advantage Of put
ting rubber on wheels to absorb
bumps.
Thirty years ago he and four other
men set up q little factory to make
bicycle tires. This was the first tire
factory in the country. TO turn out
the first tire ever made In the United
States seems to Baughman q triumph.
The output Of the factory was IS
tires a day-contrasted with the out
put Of many thousands In a large fac
tory today where q bicycle tire can
be built up In five minutes or less
and vulcanized in is.
AS the output Of Baughman's fac
tory increased q demand was created
for a pneumatic buggy tire. Baugh-
man designed one to be bolted on, the
bolt vulcanized into the rubber ia
brio.
Baughman's inventiveness brought
him the post Of official experimenter
for his company. It was In this ca
pacity that he created the company's
first pneumatic tire for the automo-
bile. It was Of fairly good size, "a
inches by 6. It weighed 50 pounds.
Baughman worked for nine years
as a tire manufacturer and then be-
came q storekeeper, but he is in the
manufacturing business again.

Transmission, Acceleration, Mo.

ments Outstanding

Style, performance and comfort in
q degree new to its field, feature the
1881 Oakland Eight line which will
be on display at the Bismarck Auto
mobile Show. Despite scores Of body
and chassis refinements, the new cars
are offered at base prices below the
minimum price at which any Oakland
Eight previously has been introduced.

pany, Bismarck dealers.
A new type of syncro-mesh trans
mission with quiet shift permitting
acceleration up to 40 to As miles per
hour, extensive rubber insulation, In
GLIDING rubber spring shackle BUSH
ings, an ingenious combination OF In
take silencer and air cleaner. new
electro-plated pistons and heavier
''big-tooth" axle gears-these repre-
sent only q few of the many mechan-
ical improvements which enable the
chassis of the new Oakland to pro-
vide the full measure Of performance
and comfort suggested by the tleet,
graceful lines of the smartly-tal-
ored Fisher bodies.
Six bodies, comfortable and luxur1-
Ously fitted, are offered In the line
which includes: the two and four
door sedan, the four-door custom Sc
dan, the standard and sport coupe
and the new convertible coupe.
Perhaps, the most vital advance IN
the new Oakland is found in the in
slant and enthusiastic response to
the throttle of the big 85-horsepower
'V"-type motor and the quick. quiet
gear shifting made possible by the
syncro-mesh helical gears OF the new
transmission.
Use Of the new transmission pro-
vides many advantages including:
/. Effortless shifting Of gears
either up or down, at any speed.
2. Quieter operation in second
gear.
3. Rapid a~cceleration.
4. Easy shifting from high to In
termediate gear for climbing hills or
to take full advantage Of the ire
mendous second gear acceleration IN
passing cars.
Another important feature Of the
new car Is the lavish use Of q special
compound of rubber and rubber pre-
servatives to cushion and silence both
body and chassis by eliminating met
al-to-metal contact at more than 40
points. This insulation includes all
spring shackle bushings and even x
tends to such details as the attach
ment Of the real springs to the rear
axles.
The factor Of safety has been
stressed throughout. The new mech
anical internal expanding brakes have
been enlarged to q diameter OF 13
inches, affording q braking area of
232 square inches. Also brake Innings
are accurately ground to assure bet
ter contact between Innings and drum.
The lateral strength of the frame has
been increased more than SO per cent
and running boards are Of steel.
The smart new Fisher bodies are
characterized by slanting Windshield
pillars of narrower design and an i'm
proved sun visor, both contributing to
improved vision. Distinctive belt
n%4ouldings add character and indi-
viduality. A new "V''-shaped chrome
plated radiator shell with chrome
plated wire screen ~concealing the
core provides the ultra-modern' effect
in radiator design that characterizes
the new Oakland Eight. New chrome
plated head-lamps are mounted on q
curved front fender tie-bar.

NASH PRESENTS NEW CONVERTIBLE SEDAN

The Nash convertible sedan for four passengers rivals in smartness the

aroused public enthusiasm at the recent London and Paris motor salons.
When raised, its trim and closely fitting Burbank top affords closed car
comfort. Lower the top and sedan becomes an open car. Its two doors
