Walter B. Wright, engineer of the 
Beverly Farms fire tractor, has in- 
vented an apparatus—being a non- 
slip arrangement and taking the 
place of the chains usually put on 
auto wheels. As the tires of the 
tractor are hard and have open 
spaces, chains to prevent skidding 
could hardly be of much use in this 
particular case. Mr. Wright’s in- 
vention has been put on the tractor 
wheels and is certainly just the 
thing. It prevents skidding and 
stays where put, and costs but little.
