40 TIRE TROULES HERE.

Beach gives no the trouble to the
driver There was only one case of
tire trouble Oh the beach last winter,
and that was caused by = defective fit

by the Londoner, Walter Clifford carp,

II is We'll known that many long dis
lance automobile races are lost to great
drivers through tire troubles; fully fifty
per cent of the races are lost in that
way.
The line Of the repair stations on the
average road race cars is one OF the vital
necessities for the driver in the race.
Speaking OF the immunity from tire
troubles on the Ornond- Daytona Beach,
T. h. Stanley, of Boston, Mass, whose
driver made the mile world record last
winter, drew attention to the tires on
his racing machine several times during
the meet The tires were of the regular
stock road pattern and not especially
made, rs in the case with nearly all
racing tires. Mr.. Stanley says the same
air was in the tires after the race meet

INTERNATIONAL RACES.

The fifth annual speed contest on the
OrmOnd-Daytona Beach, Florida, is
now commanding the attention of all
Automobiles VII O are interested in fast
motoring
The very fact that the speed accom-
plished On the famous Florida beach
will be almost twice rs fast as that OF
the ordinary road or track is sufficient
to cause automobiles to journey from
long distances to see the annual record
breaking contests.
Some of the American manufacturers
that bravely faced the starter in the
Vanderbilt Cup Race will not be seen in
Florida this winter. They found that
their cars were not right for hard race
such as the Long Island one; so the dis
appointment and loss of time and money
persuaded them that they had enough
Of racing for the time being. Some of
the cars, however, will undoubtedly be
seen in Florida, and the only alteration
in them will be a change in gear, rs the
Florida beach being so fast nccessitateS a
higher gear for record work.
Many guesses have been made rs to
the time that will be made for the mile
and the hundred-mile, respectively.
Bets have been made that the mile will
be done in the even time of % seconds
and the hundred-lnile in the even TO
minutes. 1t is remarkable fact that

two years ago, and whose many friends
now declare that it has rejuvenated the
man who made the Florida East Coast
beautiful. Scarcely L day last sum-

mountains in his automobile. Mr..
Flagler is fond of taking people with
him, and a. his car, d big steamer, can

taken IN automobile ride have had their
first experience in Mr. Flaglcr's COM

the mile record has been beaten every
last winter the worlds record was placed
at - I-5 seconds.
The distTust shown by foreigners in
regard to the Florida records was wiped
out last winter when the foreign drivers
saw the mile record made, and one OF
them made the two miles inside of one
minute. That was enough for France,
England and Italy, and England was
fully satisfied, for did not Walter Cliff
ford carp take back with him the Min
neapolis Trophy with the hundred-mile
worlds record
When the London driver returned to
England and told the English people
that he drove the last fifty miles on the
Ormoud- Daytona beach on only three
tires and made the worlds record for
the hundred, they then became fully
convinced that the finest speed course of
the world was located on the American
continent, and to make records i'll future

The postal regulation changing the
time of paying box rents from ten days
after the first of Il quarter to ten days
before went into effect last Saturday.
This order was necessitated by many
people using their boxes for the ten days
after the quarter begins and then dlscon-

The new order requires box rents to

note this change, as under the new regu-
lataoas all boxes unpaid for will be dis
pnued on the. first of the quarter, re-
eAfdless of how we'll known the firms
ne to the local authorities.
The order follows:
Paragraph 2, section 34S, postal laws
and regulations, is amended TO read as
follows:
Box rents must be collected at the
oegmning of each quarter for the entire
quarter, but no longer. Ten days before

racing machine WAS driven faster than
an automobile was ever driven before.
Mr. Stanley is Of the opinion that the
Ormond- Daytona Beach surface is al
WAYS cool through the drainage through
the sand of the receeding tide. Usually
high speed produces heat III the tires Of
racing ears, and very often causes the
blowout explosion, not only retards Il

As We'll. The tires also wear very rap
idly on the ordinary stone road, 50 that

The two-mlle-minute French machine,
fitted with racing tires, had no tire
trouble whatever.
Mr. Stanley Investigated the phenom-
cnon very closely, as he usually does
anything that interests him, and seVc,al
of the drivers agreed that the con-
slant cooling OF the sand by the tide
was the secret Of the beach being OK
empt from the mischief the average
road provides for the driver.
1t is noteworthy 70 remember that
Just before the mile race was started for
the Dewar Trophy, Mr. Stanley pre-
dicted that his car would be driven at It
