many times in track and road races
and in hill climbing contests.
l.. Coatalen, chief engineer of the
Sunbeam Motor Car company OF
Wolverham pton, England, has written
the management of the indianapolis
speedway that the Sunbeam car, which
the French driver. Albert Guyot, Will
pilot in the so mile race at Indianapo-
lis, has now been completed and has
responded in splendid style to the
tests which have been made of 1t on
the Brooklands track. Guyot Is now
in England, and after personally sub
jecting the car to more rigid tests un-
der the eyes of the engineer who de-
signed it and superintended its con-
struction, he will leave for the United
States. 1t is his intention to do all
of his preliminary training at the In
dianapolis Motor Speedway in order
thoroughly to familiarize himself with
the track, before the 500 mile race
which he expects will be the greatest
contest in which he has ever taken
part.
Many inquiries are coming into the
Speedway offices from manufacturers
who expect to enter cars in the race
and who are anxious to know just
what the technical requirements OF
the cars should be. The latest oil
these has been received from the
Kline Motor Car company Of Pitts
burg. The president of this company
said that they were seriously think
ing of entering a car and that they
wanted to know exactly what specifi-
cations should be adhered to. 1t Is
also being currently rumored on au-
ltomobile circles that many other man
ufacturers who have not formally
entered cars as yet are testing out new
motors with the idea in view of filing
their entrance blanks just as soon as
their new motors should measure IN
to the proper standards.

cox nominated as the driver. The car
will be No. ~. 1t will be equipped
with four cylinders, having bore of

Fox has the distinction of being the
man chosen by Detective Burns to
drive the car which carried John J.
Mcnamara away from Indianapolis
when he was arrested in connection
with the dynamite case.
He began his career as a race driver
in 1907. In 1908 he won the road
race from Pittsburg to Butler, Pa,
and during the same year won the
twenty five-mile free-for-all at Vim
cennes. In 1909 he was entered In

the racing fraternity as Handsome
Howdy," is also an Indianapolis man.
whose broad experience entities him
to a place among the veteran drivers,
although he is only 25 years old.
AS an employe of the National
company he drove racing cars as a
part of his duties in the testing de-
partment and during 1911 was big
winner in hill climbing events. He al
so made the worlds fastest mile
straight-away record for stock cars
making the mile in 40.32 seconds.
Wilcox has been entered in many
races on the Pacific coast, and on
March 80, 1911, he won the five mile
championship at Pablo Beach. His
victories at the Indianapolis Motor
Speedway have been many and he has
been a holder of the Remy Brassard
Another we'll known driver who has
ANNOUNCED his intention of entering a
car in the race this year is Johnny
Jenkins. who says that he will make
formal entry of Schacht car which
he will drive himself This car Is now
being rebuilt according to jenkins
ideas at the Cincinnati factory of the
Schacht company. 1t will be equip

HOW the Car1ccar Chain Is Made.

This splendid chain Is entirely uII-
ferent from the ordinary sprocket
chain that is generally used.
It runs on sprockets about two
inches wide-and the triangle shaped
links fit perfectly in the sprockets.
There is no chance for stretching
or wearing loose on the sprockets.
And the links are treated by special
hardening process which makes them
extremely durable.

FARM NOTES
By one Of the Farmers.

! We will try and keep the readers
of The Mirror in touch with the
doings on the farm, and as the spring
work will soon commence we hope
to have more to write regarding
crops planted and their condition OF
growth.
Supt. Mullen spent Good Friday
visiting his parents at the Old Sold
iers Home.
Supt. James Mullen took charge
of the New Prison Farm the first of
the month.
The auto truck from the old pris-
on made several trips to the farm,
loaded with ashes.
Part of the farmers put in sever
al days hauling in a stack of straw
from farm about three miles south.
Former Supt. Douglass shipped
his household goods to Carlton
Mimi, and will locate on a farm of
his own near that town.
The farm population was in
creased during the week by the ar
rival Of two calves. One of them
has rather a freak head, more like
the head of bull dog than bull
calf.
A new farmer was added to the |
farm crew last week. And Judging
from the smile on his face and the
willingness with which he takes
hold of the work he is very thank
full to be farmer.
The farmers began to think spring
had come, for the few warm days
made the snow disappear and robins
were seen and heard, but from the
weather of the last few days we con-
Guided that winter is still with MS.
The new farmer made up his
mind to be one of the milk maids:
90, the other day at milking time he
put on one of the white coats and
apron, got milk pail and stool and
sat down beside one of the cows.
But he did not stay their more than
.wo. seconds and when he picked /;
himself up out of the dirt he sure /;
