CADI LL AC STEINHAUER & WIGHT 228-230 Peachtree St. Ivy 2233 NEWGARGIVEN 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. HE WON IN NATIONAL fl iw l >1 Joe Dawson, at the wheel of his National, the winner of the big Indianapolis race. 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! ” IMPORTANT CHANGE IN SCHEDULE. Effective Sunday, June 2d, the Louis ville & Nashville Railroad will extend the Atlanta-Blue Ridge accommodation to Murphy. N. <’.
