QUICK PROFITS IN
REALTY MARKET
Hite Made 500 on Wood

Bessemer Property

That the human mind is ever on the
alert for ways to make money and that
Birmingham men never let a good chance
get by them is amply evidenced by the
warranty deeds recorded in the office of
the probate judge daily. In many cases
a man buys piece of property in the
morning and sells it over again at a good
profit in the afternoon of the same day
And the ones who resell property within
week are legion.
Two transfers were filed Yesterday

of 800 all in a day.

The crowds at the big Alabama State
Fair continue to increase and the turn
stiles at the big front gates of the ex-
hibit grounds last night told the story
in an estimated attendance of s., 1000 peo-
pie. Perfect order is being kept by the
fair officials. There has been no trouble
of any kind. and today if the same kind
of weather prevails, President b. E. Bur-
ton anticipates a crowd of nearly $4,000.
Some of the best races, both motorcycle
and horse races, We're held yesterday that
have ever been witnessed in the state.
In a sensational neck and neck 1o-mile
dash the gritty little driver. Goudy, again
defeated the great Bake in the time of
1923 2-5. This was the run off of the
race which was called off Saturday on
account of Balke's accident when his
rear tire flew off and his machine was
wrecked. In the regular 10-mile, Class A.
professional motorcycle race. Bake came
back, however, and downed his rival in
the time of 1924 2-5 The riding of both
Bake and Goudy ever since the fair be-
gan is keeping the fair crowds on edge.
The men are old rivals and drive rival
machines. and they stop at nothing to beat
each other.

Frank Drives Prettily

Abe Frank, the millionaire horse owner
OF Memphis, did some of the prettiest
driving yesterday ever seen ON the local
track. Mr.. Frank is little, good ma
tured Irishman, and has many friends in
Birmingham. Owing to a recent acci-
dent in Nashville, when he was thrown
from his sulky in race and seriously
hurt, he has not been driving his horses
He couldn't stand it any longer however
and got into the gamesyesterday with his
PAGER, Babette s., whining the three last
of the four heats in the 2:20 pace very
spectacularly and pulling down the stake
of $1,000 in the time of 2:1414. Mr.. Frank
is an adept horseman and he won every
one of his three heats in the home stretch
On the start off he invariably was found
second or third, and usually remained in
that position until past the third quarter.
Then he seemed to slip up ahead of the
field and nose under the wire about a
neck in the lead.
The second race yesterday, the PIP trot,
was won by Ben Greger in three straight
heats in the time of 2:13. There were sew
eral horses running against Greger, who
We're counted very fast but he won the
first three heats easily and captured the
purse of $500. The races are delighting the
enormous grandstand crowds, which yes
terday was estimated at 10000

Gadsden People Here


yesterday in honor of Gadsden day. The
special train and the automobile train
arrived during the morning, and the Gads-
den badge wearers were conspicuous all
during the day. Many Admission and Gull
man people also were on the grounds as
those towns had special day yester-
day. The baby show attracted much at
tention during the morning, and many
mothers and fathers were on hand with
their heirs. the majority of whom were
crying and making considerable noise. The
judging was completed, however, and the
awards will be announced about Satur-
Hday.
Judge A. f. Hochwalt of Dayton, o.,
arrived yesterday and judging in the dog
show began. 1t will be completed this
afternoon or tonight, and the dog show
will be closed Thursday, on account of
it being impossible to keep the dogs con-
fined for a longer period. The dog show
is the best this year it is claimed, ever
seen in this part of the country There
are 165 entries, and they include all breeds
and ages. 1t is being given under the
auspices of the Birmingham Kennel club.
The only awards that were announced
yesterday were in the mines, minerals
and machinery departments. practically
all the other department judging having
been completed.
Among the exceptionally big events that
are coming, is the arrival of children's
day Friday One of the biggest crowds
ever heard of in the south is expected,
as children's day last year is well re-
membered. there being over 5000 here at
that time.
Another herd or beef cattle Is expected
to arrive this morning from Muscogee.
Okla, and the final awards in that de-
partment will probably be announced to-
morrow night.
Much interest is being manifested al
ready in the football game Saturday be-
tween Marion college and the Birmingham
high school. Both teams are said to be
in good shape and very interesting
contest is expected.

AN ERA OF SELF-STARTERS
Nearly Every Car Equipped
with One Nowadays.

A prophet who remarked at the show
YESTERDAY that he felt his ideas had been
followed out by the makers Of mis- coun-
try was George Durham, the Chalmers
consulting engineer, who predr ted eigh-
teen months ago that the age o the self
starter was at hand lie declared that
the number Of these devices in the two
buildings was very gratifying 10 him,
for last winter he had prophesied that
within the year every standard car in
the country would be regularly equipped
with the self-starter.
u do not believe there is a single
car Of any consequence in either the Gar
den or the Palace without self-starter
equipment" said Mr.. Durham. 1T is in
teresting 10 note what class OF manufac-
tuners was forehanded enough TO develop
the air starter and obtain protective pat
ents. To-day the air starter is about the
only efficient starting ievice which cannot
he used by any one yho cares TO pay for
the equipment. The various firms using
the air starter have spent years develop
ing their devices, and, as far as ] know,
none has cared TO sell any rights.
AT the present time air starters are
being used by the Pierce Arrow Motor
Car Company. the Winton Motor Car
riage COMPANY the American Locomotive
Company's automobile department. the
Premier Motor Manufacturing Company
and the Chalmers Company. Considering
the fact that other types Of starters are
easily procurabc and that some are
cheaper, il seems 10 me an especial trib-
ute 10 the air starter for a group of com
panies Of such standing TO adopt this
type after thorough tests All Of the en-
gineers of the five companies ! have
named. after long experimenting TO get
the device with the greatest efficiency,
simplicity and economy, adopted the com
pressed air type Of self-starter."
perhaps one Of the most convincing
proofs OF the wsct that the self-starting
device has passed beyond the innoyatIoc,
stage and is now AN accepted mart of a
standard cars equipment. is the absence
OF the many working models of self.s,art.
crs that attracted so much attcntior a,
the show last winter There is ma, a.
entire absence of these working ,,odots
but practically all OF them are disnIa,od

ROTARY VALVE MOTOR NEW
Speedwell Company Response
BILE for Innovation.

The Speedweu Motor C1r Company, OF
Dayton, Ohio, probably has played the
role Of pioneer in the automobile in
dustry oftener than any other concern.
Just at present it is showing the first
car in America with rotary valve en-
zinc. According to H. ". Wright, N
Official Of tho company. the rotary valve
engine is not the only innovation FOR
which the Dayton company has been r.
spOnSiblc.
Mr.. Wright asserts that tho COMPANY
was the first TO put on the market Il 81:
with fore doo". the first 70 show a tor.
pedo model. and the first to offer an auto
mobile with centre control I'm view Of
the fact that these latter features in Dc.

mon IL speaks well for the future OF the
rotary valve. which purchasers Of the
SpcedWel' may have in place of the
poppet valve motor. If they so prefer.
