THE GUO BUND
Henderson Car Is Made Fea
ture of Big Celebration
at Indianapolis.
INDIANAPOLIS, June I.—The city of
Indianapolis and Indianapolis automo
bile manufacturers extended the “glad
hand" to the Henderson car the day
before the big race.
Led by the Indianapolis military band
and a squadron of mounted police, a
procession of automobiles, representing
almost every motor car manufacturing
concern in Indianapolis, formed at Uni
versity park and rolled slowly through
the principal streets of the city. Each
car bore upon Its side a slogan of wel
come to the latest Indianapolis motor
car. Two cars bearing the knights of
the camera followed the parade, snap
ping the various celebrities composing
the welcoming party.
The party finally drew up on the east
side of Monument circle, where the
Henderson stood. Here Mayor Shank
officially welcomed the new motor car
to Indianapolis and in the name of the
municipality christened it the Hender
son.
The mayor, after making a short talk
relative to the many advantages of In
dianapolis as an inland market, raised
in his arms a peck measure filled with
Irish potatoes and in his own Inimita
ble way said: “Indianapolis today is
the second largest motor car manufac
turing center in the world. The great
speedway, if not the greatest, is one of
the greatest race courses for automo
biles in the world. Every Indianapolis
made automobile is quality built, and
we point to each and every one of them
with pride and satisfaction. lam more
than delighted to welcome to Indian
apolis the first popular-priced automo
bile made right here In Indianapolis.
We • all know the Hendersons of In
dianapolis; we know that they will
make an automobile that is in every
respect right. And now, with the em
blem which I have made my gage in
the fight against the high cost of liv
ing. 1 christen thee Henderson.” The
mayor then emptied the potatoes over
the hood of the car. Stepping out of
the car and 11'ting an enormous pencil,
he placed his official signature on the
Henderson.
Willing hands seized the flower
banked car and rolled it to the Clay
pool hotel and into the center of the
lobby, where it remained until after the
race. Every motor car enthusiast wore
a badge portraying a stork with the
new Henderson in his beak today, and
the interest evinced in the new arrival
was secondary only to the race itself.

RACE IS PLANNED
IN GALVESTON
DURING AUGUST
That the automobile races scheduled
for the fast Galveston Beach August S,
9 and 10 will surpass any beach con
test conducted in the South is prac
tically assured by the interest being
displayed by the motor car manufac
turers and racing pilots who have sig
nified their intention of participating in
them.
Captain J. W. Munn, chairman of the
racing committee, interviewed several
of the drivers and team managers at
Indianapolis prior to the running of the
500-mile race on Thursday, and his trip
there has resulted in obtaining many
new entries.
The Galveston Automobile club and
the Texas State Automobile associa
tion. co-operating with several busi
ness interests of Galveston, are pro
moting this affair, which will act as a
curtain raiser for the fourth annual
cotton carnival, and no expense is be
ing spared to make this meet a memo
rable one. The enticing prizes offered,
amounting to more than $6,000 in cash
in addition to several handsome silver
trophies to the winners of the vari
ous classes in the eleven events sched
uled. have attracted wide attention and
will draw the speediest machines and
drivers to Galveston.

RESULT OF RAGE
BIG BOOST FOR
AMERICA •
Product of the United States
Proves To Be Better Than
the Foreign Make.
The result of the 500-mile interna
tional sweepstakes race just run at
Indianapolis is identically the same
as that of the 1911 contest in that the
big trophy was carried off again by
an American car and an American
driver.
The race this year just as last in
cluded the finest and most modern
products conceived by the master
minds of European engineers, and it
is a tribute and an honor of which ev
ery American should be proud that ar
automobile manufactured in this coun
try has again proven its superiority
over the foreign products in the great
est and most gruelling test known to
the motor world.
Another point worthy of contempla
tion is that again it was an Indianap
olis product that proved the victor.
Last year the Marmon “Wasp," driven
by Harroun. copped the big prize, while
this year Dawson at the wheel of the
“Blue Nosed” National was the con
queror. Both the Marmon and the Na
tional are manufactured in the city of
the speedway and the factories ate
pointed to with pride by the natives.
Joe Dawson, in his National, cut
down the time made by Harroun last
year by 21 minutes and 2 seconds, and
for all the long 500 miles his motor
purred away in perfect rythm and
form, clipping seconds and seconds
away from the record, w r hile car after
car met trouble of various kinds and
dropped behind or out of the race
completely. The big Mercedes, driven
by DePalma, one of the greatest pilots
in the racing game, kept the lead for
many miles and looked like an easy
winner. But just when victory was al
most in his grasp, the engine of his
powerful machine went to pieces and
amid the deafening shrieks of the vast
multitude of assembled spectators,
Dawson, in the National, rode to vic
tory, fame and fortune proving beyond
question and argument that American
made automobiles are built better,
stronger and speedier than foreign cars.
Do You Know—
Two-thirds of the tin used in the
world is produced in the Malay states.
The Swantians, who live In the in
accessible mountain range between the
Black and Caspian seas, are probably
the laziest people in the world. They
have made no advance toward civiliza
tion in 2,500 years. It is their invari
able rule to observe holidays four times
a week, with saint’s day as extras.
Mr. E'rank Lloyd, at the annual din
ner of the British Wood Pulp asso
ciation, spoke of the serious effect upon
the industry of the drouth in Scan
dinavia, and. referring to the rapid de
velopment of the industry, pointed out
how dependent paper makers now were
upon wood pulp. If they had to rely
on straw, etc., as was the case only
about 25 years ago, his mill at Sitting
bourne “would alone require a string
of carts over four miles long and «t
least 40,000,000 gallons of water every
24 hours.”
The ecclesiastical authorities at
Forst, near the Silesian frontier, have
taken action against women who per
sist in wearing largq hats in church.
They complain that they are a source
of inconvenience during communion, as
the priest has to stoop too much. The
women have been invited to wear hats
with narrow brims when they come to
church.
Nothing Like System
“Don’t tell me you can't remember
things!" murmured Jobbs to Dobbs.
"Memory is all a matter of system.
Now. in what year was the Battle of
Agincourt fought?"
Dobbs pleaded that his memory failed
him on that interesting historical fact.
“Exactly!" replied Jobbs. “Now, how
many days are there in a week?"
“Seven." came the answer.
“Very well. Twice seven are four
teen. Multiply by a hundred—foul -
teen hundred. Number of days in
June, thirty. Half of thirty, fifteen
Fifteen and fourteen hundred?"
“Fourteen hundred and fifteen,” haz
arded Dobbs.
"Right! That's the year of the bat
tle. System, my boy. That's what does
it —system! ”
