SUBSCRIBE TO OXFORD PUBLIC LEDGER $1.50 Per Year m Advance THIS DAY AND YOU (Ralph Waldo Trine) "IN TUNE' WITH THE INFINITE" The Generator Of Gladness. Were to formulate a section for a "life cred,'' I would put it in this form: To take and to live always in the attitude of mind that compels gladness, looking for and thus draw ing to us continually the best in all things—being thereby the creator of our own fortunes. There is no quality that exerts more good, that is of greater service to all people during the course of the ordi nary life, than the mind and heart that goes out in an all-embracing love for ail; that is the generator and the circulator of a genuine, hearty, wholesome sympathy, cpurage and good cheer; that is not disturbed or upset by the passing occurrence, little or great, but that is serene, tranquil and conquering to the end—that is looking for th^ best, that is finding the best and that is inspiring the best in all. There is, mcreover, no quality which brings such abundant returns ^egMiras Reso^yres Foc^i^s Lx T"P ptcture shows Plant 2 of The Studebaker Corporation, South Bend, where the Light-Six models are anufactured complete.

One of the striking innovations and efficiency ideas in the new factory is to be found in the build ing where final assembly is carried on. Here an improvement on the familiar conveyor system used in automobile factories is employed. Endless Chain to Completion Moving along on an "endless chain" behind each frame upon which a car is assembled is a carrier upon which the various units that go into the car are hung. These units, such as transmission, st&ring assembly, axles, etci, are stocked alongside the endless chain, and placed on the carriers as they go by. When the last of these units is hung upon the carriers, the actual assembly of the complete car begins, under careful and expert supervision, an improvement upon the former method of long drawn out, piecemeal assembly. The ar rangement of this progressive as sembly also provides for the mechanical handling of all material, and it reduces to a minimum the cost and confusion of moving stock. The snb-assemhtv'building, where the various units themselves are assembled, is four stones high, of reinforced concrete construction, and has an interior bay open to the roof. The bay is covered with a glass skylight, and is equipped with crane service and landing balconies on all floors for the quick and economical handling of materials. The bay also has a depressed un loading track with accommodations for ten freight cars. In this sub assembly building are located the store-rooms, tool departments, ma chinery maintenance and repair de partments, together with factory administration offices and em ployes' restaurant. The great building that houses the stamping department which represents an investment of $4,000,000, is of steel-frame con struction, with tile roof and glass sides. Heavy metal-forming presses manufacture the frames, fenders, hoods and other stamped parts of the car, while huge ovens are utilized for the baking of the en ameled pieces. Visitors who make the trip through the Light-Six factory al ways like to linger in this depart ment, watch the interesting pro cesses performed—veritable mir acles they seem—and study the remarkable economies in operation, as well as the perfect accuracy and efficiency with which each task is completed. Modernity of Facilities Among many notable features of manufacture which illustrate the modernity of facilities of the Light Six plants are the machine shops which alone represent an invest ment of $7,000,000. Here the Light-Six crankshafts and connect ing rods are machined to very ac curate limits on all surfaces, a practice that is largely responsible for the practical elimination of vi bration in the Light-Six—a practice that is followed exclusively by Studebaker on cars at the Light Six price. Sixty-one precision operations are required on the crankshaft alone. ^ The South Bend plants contain 4,875,000 square feet of floor space. They employ 12,000 persons. They cost $33,250,000. The South Bend forge plant cost $4,000,000, the power plants $2,500,000 and the as sembly and stock plants cost $5,000,000. The new foundries now under construction will cost over $2,000,000.
