U. Of D. Boys Make
Good AT Plattsburg
The Old Blue and Gold Representa-.
tives Best" in
Camp

Captain Mackenzie, who was con-
nected with the military department
of the University of Delaware and
who was transferred to the Officers
Training Camp, at Plattsburg, n. Y,
is back in town and brings the most
encouraging reports of the work Of
the Delaware boys at the camp.
Captain MacKenzie's company was
known as the End Co., and embraced
the twenty-eight Delaware men who
were at the camp, taking the advance
course. 1t likewise embraced five
New York City College men and
twenty Clayson Military Academy
boys.
The company in charge Of the
former Delaware instructor copped
the camp championship as the best
drilled company, thereby carrying off
the colors and being designated as
the "Color Company" Of the camp.
The Delaware Spirit" of the Del
aware group, which composed more
than half of the company, is believed
by Captain Mackenzie to have been
chiefly responsible for the success of
the company.
Linn, of the class of 1923, won the
pistol trophy for the highest mark
manship with a pistol and qualified as
expert pistol shot," the only man in
the entire camp who qualified for this
title. Reynolds of the same class, won
| first place in the rife shooting, quail
flying as "expert rifeman." Rose also
qualified in this class as expert -
Four Delaware boys qualified as
"sharpshooters," next grade below
expert" and eleven as "marksmen."
This good work was the result of the
excellent drilling that the boys re-
ceived on the range in the basement
Of the armory here in Newark last
term. Capt. Mackenzie was one of
! the instructors in the work here.
The baseball team of the Second
| Company, on which Joe Rothroch, Bob
! Challenger and other Delaware boys
were stars, so far outclassed the other
teams in the comp that after the
second week none of the other teams
were willing to take on the Delaware
company team.
| Rothrock, Zimmerman, Twoes, Wills
and Bob Challenger were commission
ed as second lieutenants in the Of
/ ficers Reserves Corps. Captain Mac
Kenzie paid special tribute to the
work of young Challenger and said
that officers of the camp mentioned
him as equal to any lieutenant they
had even seen just finishing the train
| ing course for commission.
The showing Of Delaware, Captain
Mackenzie claimed was equal if not
superior to that of any other institu-
ton at the camp.

AN AUTO TRIP

An auto trip on which they will
visit every State capitol and every
large city in the country, has been
planned by four residents of West
Philadelphia, among them being Mrs.
]. R. Lloyd, of 5139 Lancaster avenue,
West Philadelphia. She is a daugh-
ter of Mrs. Robert Hall and we'll
known in Newark.
Newark post., 1922-08-09

Her losses have been IN wheat, corn,
small fruits and hogs.
"In the past 90 years Sussex Coun-
ty has lost about 10 per cent of her
rural population, and is farming
nearly 10000 acres less land. In 20
years the value of all farm property
has increased over Is millions of dol
lars, the value of farm land over 7
millions, the value of farm buildings
over millions and nearly 2 millions
of dollars more farm machinery is
being used on her farms. Her far
mers own over 5000 more horses and
mules, over 5000 more cattle, and
nearly million more poultry are on
her farms. She has shown a loss of
about 5000 hogs in 20 years. Ten
per cent less people have produced
over a quarter of million more bush
els of grain, $4,000 more tons of hay,
.114.oOO more bushels of white pota
toes, over a million bushels more
sweet potatoes and nearly 100000
more bushels of orchard fruits. Her
only loss in production has been in
small fruits and this loss is more than
compensated by her increased produc-
ton of cantaloupes, cucumbers, water
melons, etc.
"In 20 years Sussex County's fer
tilizer bill has increased over 80 per
cent"
In closing, Dean McCue urged those
present to give the boys and girls OF
the State chance to take part inthis
new agricultural development.
DR.. Walter Hullihen, president OF
the University, in behalf of the insti-
tuition. welcomed the farmers and told
his satisfaction and pride with the
experimental farm.
He also spoke admirably of the
work of the Boys and Girls Clubs.
DR.. Jacob G.. Lipman, Director OF
the New Jersey Agriculture Expert
ment Station was the speaker of the
dav. He discussed the research work
being carried on at the Experimental
Stations in this country and Europe.
DR.. Lipman is known internationally
and recently returned from trip to
Europe.
In discussing the advantage Of ag-
ricultural schools, DR.. Lipman pointed
out that it was to the advantage OF
every taxpayer to support this ma
tnre of school. He said that the ex-
periments worked out on these farms
brought about better crops and this
point in turn brought about lower
prices to the consumer.
In continuing, he stated that the
farmer of today is devoting more of
his time to the development of his
land and actual food production than
to other supplies which he is leaving
entirely to the industrial world. He
said that farming conditions are
changing, due to the fact that the
farmer is keeping pace with the many
new inventions of the country.
DR.. Lipman explained to his audi
ence how many of the problems are
worked out at the experimental farms
and told of the increased agriculture
products that were brought about as
a result of these experiments.

SMALLER CARS IN
1922 SPEEDWAY RACE

INDIANAPOLIS March Ok Ur
1.-THE crucible of racing has re-
rihed the engine of the modern motor
car In the last two decades and one
example of this is the 50O-mile races
conducted by the Indianapolis Motor
speedway. The tenth annual interna-
tional sweepstakes race will be run on
May 80. 1t will also be the last of tho
1873 cubic inch class contests. NEXT
year the race will be for cars with two
htre engines, or 122 cubic inches
smaller than anything now produced
In the factories in America.
When the first 5O0-miIe race wds
run the maximum engine size was 500
cubic inches. The next yenr the class
was reduced to a maximum Df $50 Gu
Die inches and three races have heen
run for the d5O, 800 and 1S3 class
with this years event The Indian
apolis Speedway has been the leader
IN the reduction Of the engine sizes
poth from factor of safety, and also
the resulting fuel economy, srom the
long stroke, small bore engine. IT Is
noticeable that although the engine
size has been cut down the speed ave
RACES have not materially suffered.
Reduction OF the engine sizes has
caused q reduction in car weights.
The weight regulations forecast the
entry oflseveral foreign cars with the
small engines in this years event.
First to make entry for the May 20
event was Eddie (Grandpa)) Hearne,
who has a penchant for carrying the

In the coming event will race for a
cash purse of $4,000 and probably
fifty to seventy-five thousand in add

.ichelin Tire
Man Wants to
Find a Name

e. Lloyd, the local Michelin Tire
dealer is very enthusiastic these davs
over the nationwide contest now be-
ing conducted by the Michelin Tire
company offering 100000 in cash
ana sNty-five other prizes for secur-
ing suitable name for the interesting
lire man which has been q feature of
Michelin advertising for many wears.
ana whose antics have amused count
less thousands of people.
IT seems this tire man already has
name, but the Michelin COMPANY
reels the name is not exactly sritable
because it is not name easily under
stood or remembered, in short the
Michelin Man is known as Bibondum
but while Bihendum is a good name in
some countries, it is hardly suitable
for American use.
The story about the original naming
Of the Michelia Man takes the reader
pack to France whore the modern
pneumatic tire had its bitlh1piace in
the Michelin Works at Clermont Fer
rand, q city Of 10000 busy people
away up in the mountains in the south
central part Of the great Republic be-
yond the seas. The story goes that
the Michelin Man was developed from
q crude idea suggested by a workman
IN the Michelin factory. This work
man noticed that n pile of tires, care
lessly assembled, bore a crude resem-
Dlance to man. He mentioned this
to member of the advertising staff,
who later developed the idea, using
tires of different sizes. The services
OF the celebrated French cartoonist
O'Gailot were then called in, and soon
the Miehelin Tire man became a real
|ity.
Abont the first public use of the
figure was on poster where the Tire
man was shown holding goblet con-
tanning broken glass. horse shoe nails
and other terrors of tho road, evident
~ in the act of proposing a toast, the
wording being "Nunc est Bibendhm"
which is Latin for our more familiar
expression Before prohibition) of
Here's How" From that time for
ward the Michelin Man was known
abroad as Bibendum, this name being
considered appropriate, because Mich
elm advertising bore the message that
Michelin Tires drank" or absorbed
the shocks of the road and also such
obstacles as bits of iron, broken stones
and so on.
The rules governing the present
contest are very simple. All the con-
testant has to do is of course first find
a suitable name for the tire man and
an appropriate slogan or phrase of
not more than ten-words This sounds
simple, but it isn't No wonder the
Michelin Company is willing to pay
Sl,0O0.00 in cash for a good name for
the famous tire man. Nevertheless
the company feels that good name
exists and is willing to pay this con
siderable sum to secure it. After
selecting q name and phrase the con.
testant simply mails them to thr
Michein factory at AIilltown, New
Jersey. r~sw
OF course the would-be contestant
should first learn all he can about
Michelln Tires and the Michelin Mai
before he starts cudgeling his brain
Tor q name and phrase. To help hin
the company has provided Mr.. Eloyd
the local Michelin dealer, with circu
lars telling all about the House @

One gave a purse OF minted gold and
passed along his way,
but what was precious to himself he
kept for case and play;
ne danced with women fair at night
and sang his merry songs.
Content that with his yellow gold he'd
righted many wrongs.
AND one there was who met the poor
and bought them meat and bread.
And quite forgot their bitter days
when once their mouths were fed;
lie gave from out HIS well-filled purse
the stuff that could be bought,
But what they really hungered for was
more than passing thought.
