FRENCH CARS TO
Be IN BIG RACE
PEUGEOT COMPANY OF
PARIS TO BE REPRESENTED
Indianapolis Sweepstakes Race Will be
Truly International in Scope
French Cars Which VIII Come are
Being Tested-Crack Drivers VIII
Come to America.

Indianapolis, Ind, Mar. 19.-(Spec-
ial)-Definite word has been received
from the Peugeot company of Paris
that two of their fastest cars, with Ju-
les Goux and Zucarrelli as drivers,
will be entered in the third annual
500-mile international sweepstakes
race at the Indianapolis Motor Speed
way, May 30. This rumor has been
current for sometime, and its official
confirmation by the Peugeot company
adds unusual interest to the coming
contest, it now being an assured fact
that the 50O-mile race will be truly
international in character and win
prove to be the greatest automobile
race ever staged on an American
track IL not in the world
The Peugeot cars have now left the
factory and are being tested under the
supervision of the engineers who de-
signed them. 1t has been necessary
to change the cylinder bore in order
to lower the piston displacement to
the 450 cubic inch ruling made by
the Speedway this year. According to
present arrangements Goux and Zucar-
relli will arrive in America about May
IL, and will proceed Immediately to
indianapolis where they will have a
chance to become thoroughly acquaint-

/ the Peugeots and the Sunbeam have
been avowed rivals for years
A new entry has been received for
the race, being made by F. l.. Adams,
a private owner of Indianapolis. Ad-
ans is having special car construct
ed in Chicago which he will call the
! Smaia. An unusual feature is pres
ented by this car in that it's power
plant is a two cycle affair, with bore
of three and a half and a stroke of
five inches, aggregating 3S4S cubic
inches piston displacement. This,
with the exception of the Nyberg car,
is the smallest piston displacement
recorded by any car which has beer
entered thus far.
G. p. Root, the nominee of C. A.
Sedwick, speedway manager, has been
confirmed as speedway starter by the
contest board of the American Auto
mobile association, which reserves the
right to pass upon the eligibility of any
applicant for office in the racing
game. 1t was further announced that
the position of official timer would
be offered Chester Kicker, an Indi-
annapolis consulting engineer and
technical expert, subject to his accep-
tance and confirmation by the A. A
A. Kicker has been strongly boosted
for the job of late by his friends, who
in view Of his wide acquaintance and
scientific attainments, felt that he
would be the best possible man to Sc
lect.
This year the color scheme which
will be evolved is expected to obviate
all the former trouble. In omport
ance this measure is second only to
the practice which will be followed
this season of requiring all cars to
stop for repairs, tires, gas and oil,
south of the finish wire. after having
completed a full lap. With these in
novations, in combination with. the
use of improved timing instruments,
it is expected that the spectators at
the 5OO-mile race will be much better
posted on the exact status of the con-
test at all times than ever before.

NEW DEPARTMENT

Automobile shipping Business Out of
Detroit Given Attention.

Detroit, Mich.-Since its establish
ment by the National Association of
Automobile Manufacturers at the
convention held in this city last fall
the Detroit office of the associations
traffic department has played an i'm
portant part in the shipments of mo-
tor cars from this city and the return
of the empty freight cars.
During anuary the office was con-
cerned in the shipment of between
5000 and 5000 carloads of motor cars.
Figuring that each of these cars av-
eraged four machines, the total ship
ment of motor cars from this city
during January was somewhere be-
tween 10000 and $4,000.
These figures are conservative as
some of the freight cars contained as
high as eight machines. On the 9TH
er hand, some of them carried only
three.
At the present time. about 800 car
loads of motor cars are being ship

ped out of Detroit daily for all parts
of the country and for export. This
is an average of 1900 machines a day
more cars than many individual
factories manufacture in a year. Ship
ments generally are heavier along to-
ward the end of the month than they
are the first or during the middle
of the month. The reason ascribed
for this is that the factories endeavor
to clean up all possible orders before

the close of the month, so as to make
the showing during that particular
month as good as possible
With these concrete evidences of
the healthy condition of the local in
dustry, there is little doubt that De-
troit, at least, will reach is estimated

cars during 1913. 1t looks now as If

A vote of thanks was given to the
editors of the RECORD and the
BEACON for their courtesies, at the
last meeting of the Lambertville

Edwin Jones, the little boy who
endured cruelty rather than disobey
his parents or steal was commended.
Heroes and good citizens are made
from such material.
Mesdames Meginnes and Conover
were appointed to secure a window
for the poster display during carni-
val week. Thru the kindness of Mr..
John Iorio, of Union Street and Mr..
Stevens of Church Street, three
windows were obtained. Have you
seen them?
A father gave the names of mer-
chants who sell, or give for services
rendered, tobacco and cigarette
paper to youths under eighteen. The
penalty for so doing is a fine or i'm
prisonment. We desire to incon-
venience no one, and beg the men
as Christians, and as patriots to obey
the law and to teach others to do so.
New diseases seem to have found
their way into human life. Of them
all none is so hurtful to human
society as the growing disrespect
for law. The sanctity of the statues
of the state is not as highly regard
ed as in our fathers day.
From the boys on the street to
the great corporation in its office
building, the spirit to give no heed
to laws that are personally inconven-
lent seems rampant. Every public
teacher, in schoolroom, pulpit and
press. should lift a clear voice again
st this peril which threatens the
very foundations of the state.
Keep We the law be swift in all
obedience
Clear the land of evil, drive the road
and bridge the ford.
Make We sure to each his own
That he reap where he hath sown;
BY the peace among our peoples
let men know we serve the Lord. >

The advertising rates will be as

free copy of the directory, and one

more. Thus a page ad carries with
it fourteen copies of the directory,
which may be sent to favored
customers or friends. No one adj
vertiSer, regardless of amount of
advertising, will be furnished more
than fifty copies of the directory.
Small ads across the tops or

$3.50; twenty-five of them SIS. The
back cover will cost SIS, and the
two inside cover pages will $40 each.
No ads will appear on the front.
Juding from the amount of inter-
est taken in the directory, both in
this city and in the surrounding
country, it will be a most excellent
advertising medium. No other one
form of advertising will be kept in
the home as long as this kind, and,
unlike large city, people who get
the directory will use it for an
actual reference work in their
homes.
Aside from calendars, probably
no other kind of advertising would
be kept in the home so long, and
any man who undertakes to dis
tribute calendars or the same sized
appropriation that he would make
for the directory, would find him
self left right at the staring post.
Directory advertising does not
take the place of newspaper adj

NO SMEAR FOR CAKES
Sweet Smell Of Boiling Maple sap
Not Rising over Many
Sugar Camps.

The sweet smell OF boiling maple
sap is not rising over many Of the SUI
gar camps OF West Virginia this year.
Il has been a certainty for some
time that the local maple sugar crop
wifi be very light: in fnct. the sup.
ply is less than it has been for many
years, 1t viii mean an increased
price for local maple sugar and ma.
pie syrup, although the northern crop
was not so hard hit.
The theory Is that the cold weather
keeps the ground about the roots
frozen and so the pores are kept
closed and inactive until warm wea-
Their comes Then the tree fairly ex-
pands in the warmth, the pores open
and the great quantities of maple wa
ter which have been stored up
through the long winter runs out
freely. The water from which the
maple syrup and sugar are made is
not to be confused with the real sap
of the tree, which is not nearly 50
sweet and becomes sour quickly.
This winter there has been no long
stretches of cold and there has been
many warm stretches, so the pores of
the maple tree have discharged most
OF the syrup.
The sections of the state that pro-
duce maple sugar report very light
crop. The weather is blamed for the
shortage. maple men saying that there
has not been a sufficiently long cold
period. A long, cold winter is good
maple weather. FOR the ground stays
frozen.

This is the crucial period for the fruit

an extent that they will be able to
