'C0Dy STAMPEDE IS LINING UP FOR
BIGGEST SHOW YET, JULY g ga
Prizes Totaling So, 300. 90 to be Offered
Committee Needs Local Help to
Spread News of Celebration

A month from today the streets will be packed with a mass OF
humanity, home folks, neighbors strangers, all on tiptoe tor the
fifth annual Cody Stampede which will start on Thursday July End,
and last until midnight, Saturday. That is. providing the local
people who believe in the Cody Stampede and the benefit the town
derives from it, assist the committee in their work of distributing
advertising matter and each doing his share toward not only holding
the attendance of other years but increasing it. IS
Last year the unveiling of the Buffalo Bill monument had much
to do with the record breaking attendance, but this year we are get
ting no such free advertising and must depend upon our efforts.
If we would hold our own with neighboring attractions we
must have cooperation, we must all work together for the common
purpose of interesting the outside world in Cody celebration. We
are confident that there are but few citizens who would care to hear
the Stampede referred to Is the Cody funeral and we must put forth
extra effort this year to prevent the fate Of similar roundups and
rodeos Detailing u.s.

the people of the surrounding country
must be relied upon for the greater
part of the attendance, so it behooves
US to see that they are reminded.
Letters of inquiry and requests for

DOM Herr Is Made Agent
for Wills St. Claire Auto

What becomes of the race car
driver while the race car is busy
running races might be answered by
the brief review of the life of Don
Herr, erstwhile race car driver and
recently appointed local dealer for
the Wills Saint Claire automobile.
Beginning in the first downtown
garage in Indianapolis owned by
Carl Fisher in 1908, he trained for
six years to become an expert mech
anician.
From then on first as mechanician
and later as winner of a number of
races in various parts of the country
he followed the lure of race track
until in 1913, when he went into bust
ness with the late Howdy Wilcox
opening the Yellow Cab Company.
With his expert knowledge of auto
mobiles and machinery, however,
and with the still unrealized dream
of owning cab company of his own
with a distinctive type of service
and personal interest to add to its
attractiveness he established a bust
ness of his own at the present loca-
ton, Maryland st. and Kentucky
Ave.
And now in addition to his com
plete service department and can
company he has the agency for one

MAGYAR ACTS STIR
LITTLE ENTENTE IRE
Note to Foch Protests Alleged
Violation of Treaty by
Hungarians.
BY A. X. DECKER.

BY Radio to The Star and Chicago Daily News.
VIENNA, May 21.-According to re
ports from Belgrade, the little entente
has sent an identic note to Marshal
Foch, protesting against Hungary's
alleged violation of the Trianon treaty.
The note, following the meeting of
the little entente, shows how the alli-
ance Is maintained by combined action
against common enemy. However.
il seems that the little entente does
not wish to give the impression that
tiungary'S army is to attempt to re
gain her old territories. The combined
action is more for the purpose of pre-
venting Hungary from requesting
obligatory service to replace expen-
sive paid volunteers.
Also the little entente is somewhat
surprised by the manner in which
Hungary'S finances have improved.
Rumania especially thinks that Hun
gary Is reconstructing faster than
Rumania.
Hungary is puzzled by the little en-
tente's criticism of its armaments.
Her statesmen have expressed the
opinion that Hungary is observing the
conditions of the treaty and that other
nations have no cause for alarm. They
say further that Hungary intends to
observe the treaty in the future, as
the control commission will be able to
verify.
