Shavings Salvaged

There used to be u saying that
the packing Industry utilized every
part of an animal but the squeal,
yet even that doesn't give the
packer the slightest udvuntuue
over (ho modern automobile
manufacturer.
Visitors going through tho plants
nf tho Ou kin ml Motor Car com
pany, nt Ponlhic. Mich., have
noticed small piles of machine
turnings, or having, aecumuhit
In cc every few minutes under varl
fiun machines lined tn tho building
of Oakland nnd Pontlac sixes.
Hoveral men go from plaeo to place
carefully cdiovclliiK theao turnings
Into 8teel containers. Not one
visitor In fifty thinks to ask what
bocomcs of them, pro-supposing
that eventually they reach the
nrrnft heap.
The fart Is lhnw shriving repio
fteut potential automobiles, Knr

j 1 00 percent of the grinding oil.
This Is flltired and used again.
I The crushed turnings nro fed

of tho efficient mass production
methods which make possible so
much automobile for so little
money.

this piece. It Is another story with
a new angle on the high speed
methods popularized by Hie auto
mobile. Tho principal character In the
story Is the Oakland Motor Car
company, with several railroads
and steamship lines Interwoven
Into the theme.
The story begins on a recent
Tuesday when the Pontine division
of the Oakland company had ou
hand scarcely enough car frames
for a full day's output. Charles o.
Miller, supervisor of purchases,
got In (ouch with the supplies, the
A. o. Smith company, of Milwau

fic director, not busy with the
railroads. They promised every
aid.
on Tuesday morning the frames
were loaded at Milwaukee on a
Chicago. Milwaukee St. Paul
and Pacific train. The (iiand
Trunk ferry brought (hem to
C.rand Haven. Mich., where the
(iiand Trunk lines held up a crack
train more than two hours to get
tho shlpiifctit to Pontine. Michigan
with all possible dispatch.
The frames arrived at the Pon
tine factory on Wednesday, were
immediately unloaded anil started
at one end nf the assembly lines
where, In an hour, they rolled off
at the other end completed cars.

cars far, far beyond them in price.
They are readily singled out by a host of dis
tinctive features of the style that re-styles all
motor "cars new slcndcr-profili chromium
plated radiator, "arched-window" silhouette,
unusual grace in the sweep of the "air-wing"

The new Chryslers-also have the "Silver-Dome"
high-compression engine using any fuel
cotinterweigbted 7-bearing crankshaft unusual
safety and ease of internal-expanding hydraulic
4-wheel brakes, efficient in any weather, and
Lovcjoy hydraulic shock absorbers.
There is no wizardry in such additions of
greater value they have their source and
explanation in the solid, substantial manufac
turing policy of Standardized Quality, orig
inated by and peculiar to Chrysler, which passes
on to its cars of lesser price the quality features
of its cars of highest price.
If there is the shadow of a doubt in your mind
