MAXWELL CARS
To Compel IN
50O-M|LE RACE
Ray Harroun Will Engineer the
Construction Of Three Speed
Specials.

The greatest furore that the racing
game has experienced in q long time
was the announcement made at the
New York Automobile Show by the
Maxwell Motor Company that Ray
Harroun would superintend the con-
struction of three special speed cars
to take part in important speed con-
tests in this country and abroad.
The Indianapolis Motor Speedway
classic will be the first event in which
the cars will participate, and It Is fit-
ting that they should make their first
appearance there, as 1t was with the
winning of that event, the first 500
mile race. that Ray Harroun retired
from racing to become an engineer on
the Nordyke Marmon Company staff.
Cars Soon Ready.
The three speed specials which are
Being constructed in the Detroit plant
of the Maxwell Company are now
well under way, and the motors will
soon be given their first workout.
The cars will be built right up to
the 450-inch piston displacement al
lowed by the Indianapolis classic, and
will be motors of the long stroke type.
The team will he made ur Of the
best drivers in the United States, as
1t is the desire of the Maxwell Com
par, that it will be strictly Aoeri-
can team proposition.
Harroun's promise to the Maxwell
Company Is that the cars will do a
lap on the Speedway course one full
second faster than any car has ever
travelled lap officially on the Speed
way, which means that the small 450-
inch displacement cars will travel
faster than Louis Strang travelled over

BUICK, IN TEST,

Driven Over Icy Roads, the Car
Makes 20.l Miles on GAL

Twenty and one-tenth miles on one

Buick car! That the mark that the
Buick Motor Company may advertise
to the world as an official perform
anoe yesterday, upholding the reports
Of tests made at the Flint (Michigan)
factory under the auspices of Engi-
neer MARI. designer of Buick cars.
Not only did the Model B-55 six"
set this remarkable economy mark on
January IA, but the Model B-25 I'M
der similar running conditions made
22.7 miles per gallon. while third
machine. a Model B-37, with no
gravity feed tank for the measured
gallon of gasoline, made 1897 miles
The latter two models are tours.
With F. z. Edwards, former Ameri-
can Automobile Association technical
expert and one of the most conscien-
tious officials in the industry, in
charge of the technical committee,
and with Assistants Darwin Hatch,
st. Clair Couzens, Reed Parker and
e. @. Westlake to furnish the affl-
davits as passengers in the Buick
cars, the machines were taken to
Thirty third street, and South Park
avenue, where the attested Warner
speedometers were set and officially
recorded by Messrs. Edwards and
Hatch, engines were run until they
had sucked the gasoline leads dry and
the technical committee carefully
supplied each car with one gallon So
gasoline that rated 81 in tempera-
ture of IS degrees Fahrenheit.
Soon after the machines reached
Jackson Park, where a two-mile cir
cult at and near the lake shore was
utilized for testing ground the
wind set In off the lake the roadways
became sheeted in ice and the tenn
perature fell to 80 degrees The
southwest wind that blew rs miles

though. TO start, you raise one foot, to
stop you place both feet upon the
ground. Just az simply and uncon-
sctousiy the owner Of the Buffalo
controls the starting stopping and,
speed OF his car.
Raising the foot pedal releases the
brakes and applies the power; de-
pressing the pedal shuts off the power
and applies the brakes In driving
through congested traffic, even in
case of danger OF collision, your first
impulse is to brace down with your
foot; TO your Joy, one finds. this in
voluntary action compels the car TO
respond almost az to a wish. The
hands, meanwhile, are free to guide
the car, either or both employed for
the purpose as you desire.
The design and lines of the car
are accepted as exquisite, both in ap-
pointment and quality of material
used. We expect great things in the
South when we get firmly located and
personally I am exceedingly glad to

ing Little Ones With
Dangers.

Through the efforts OF the Automobile
Club of New Haven and Superintendent
Beede. Of the public schools. a plan
has been inaugurated to lessen sthe,dan-
gers to school children from vehicle
travel OF every sort. Thousands OF cards
have been printed on which are a few
simple rules to each children how to
be careful.
More cards have been hung in the
schoolrooms designed to impress upon
the pupils minds the danger of rushing
into the streets without watching traffic.
Superintendent Beede has instructed
the teachers TO deliver talks to the chill
dren from time to time on the dangers
so as to firmly impress upon the young
sters what Is certain to result from
carelessness. In connection with the
campaign 1t developed that the city au-
thorities had not complied with the law
passed by the Legislature this year that
warning signs should be erected within
800 feet ofgevery schooIhouse, caution
ing drivers of vehicles to be careful

New Electric Enters, With

the Buffalo Electric Vehicle
Company. makers of the Buff
falo Electric, successor to the Bah
cock. is in Atlanta perfecting ar
rangements for the representation OF
his cars In the South.
In a few short years the Buffalo
has leaped to great favor in the East,
North and West, and upon entering
the Southern territory II is tho firm
conviction of Manager Rabbit the
success OF other territory will be du-
plicated here.
A feature of the Buffalo is the con-
venient foot control and emergency
pedals the foot control answers the
same purpose as the clutch of gaso-
line cars.
In speaking of this foot control,
Rabbit says: Between sidewalks, at
all hours of the day, in any city of
size, two motor processions-one up,
one down--each for the most part
two cars abreast, flow unbrokenly,
save where they are added to or d.
minished by cross-town arteries.
Buffalo Electric owners drive
their own cars under such conditions
and think nothing of 1t. With the
foot control feature, the starting,
stopping and running OF the Buffalo
Is done more by instinct than by
studied effort. The action of walk

Harroun Has Big Record.
Most of those familiar with racing
concede that Harroun knows more
about the Indianapolis course than
any other driver, and that as build
er of racing cars he ranks with Rib

Blitzen-Benz and many other fast
foreign cars.

The announcement of the fact that
a firm of the importance of the Max
well Company has entered the speed
lists is simply an indication that rae
ing will receive decided boom and
that other large firms can be expect
ed to follow soon.
While Detroit has always been the
hub of the automobile industry, but
few cars ever built in the City OF the
Straits have ever raced at Indianap-
oils None Of them ever won the big
race.

What Wastes Gas
And Lessons Power

II is not the amount OF gasoline that
determines the amount of power to be
derived from a given sized cylinder. 1t
is the amount that can be changed into
a vapor and be mixed with air to
proper degree before ignition. In winter
much gasoline is wasted by being car
ried as liquid into the cylinders Such
material burns very slowly compared to
the proper mixture, and leaves much OF
the carbon deposited In the combustion
chambers. This is not economy.

known except by actual experience,
and sad are the thoughts when the re-
Election is forced home that half
century has passed and every year
and day OF it Is filled with regret AMI
grief over the fact that the afflicted
one could not perform a whole mans
task.
But while these reunions have their
sadness, they are also filled with
giadness. How much the load is
lightened when these honored soldiers
Of a Lost Cause return TO their homes
and think OF the comrades seen again
and the joys felt over the evident de-
sire OF everyone to do something for
their comfort. Years lived over in
Sew days and the storehouses of their
memories refilled with tender exper-
fences, and pictures to be looked at
and pondered over again and again.
When looking at the joys of these
reunions. one is made to reflect
over the absence fifty years hence of
a suitable reunion or occasion for the
young men OF today. What are they
doing now TO unite them in national
cause making necessary a State or
National reunion when they are old?
Life will be barren on this point for
nearly all of the young men, unless
they can meet as Sons of Veterans and
recount the scenes OF this reunion and
the next and the next The thin gray
line will become extinct and in its
place some other must appear. To
fill the vacancy The Intelligencer
hopes the organization of the Sons Of
Veterans may grow. and let them fight
the battles of their fathers for an "age
Of ease," or let them help some others
father II his has answered the last roll
call.
Yes, THESE reunions are pathetic,
but it is sweet pathos, making pure
the fountain OF patriotic emotion.
May there be many more.

LONG AGO.

This night in May upon old Charles
toms wall, alone. l muse
And recollection sweeps the vistas
of the past.
l live again the happy, happy hours
that cannot lose,
Though long, long years have come
and gone, their charm-the
witching spell they softly cast.
Familiar faces, dear, smile once again.
For come has come to the end,
And earth no longer holds them;-
and all-how changed!
One there was who with that fair
moonlit scene in complete har-
mony seemed to blend
AS if for her sweet radiant presence
that setting of the sea and sky
and shore some spirit had ar
ranged! tz
In the still moonlight. o'ef the mir
rowing bay we gently glide ~
Methinks hear the very voices
softly all the old songs singing
And hear the wavelets 'gainst the sea
wall tapping with the rising tide
And smell the dFowsy perfume from
the gardens blown DER the tiny
waves to which they're clinging.
And then comes through the misty air
faint and afar
Like fairy fantasies the tinkling
tones, now clear, now hushed
again.
AS some deft hand sweeps DER the
strings--the sound of a guitar;
And so one listens thrilled with
tense delight almost. akin to
pain!
AS then so now the moon is softly
shining down
And as lean upon the railing of
the Battery wall
And muse upon the beauty and the
story of this proud old town
/ wonder not that once a heart has
spell it never can but answer
to her call.
