QUALITY CAR CENTER
Highly Trained Auto Mechanics,
Engineers Trained.

Indianapolis has long been known
as the Quality Car City. Marmon,
Stutz and Deusenberg cars are
among the finest manufactured. and
have brought prestige to the city in
the automotive field. The Indian
apolis Motor Speedway long has
been regarded the Nations pooling
ground for automotive progress and
has played a very important part in
the development of the present day
motor car. Inventions which have
stood the gruelling test of this great
race course are those which make
the automobile Of today what it is.
Because Indianapolis has been
prominent in the manufacture Of
high-grade motor cars, hundreds of
highly skilled automobile mechanics
and many nationally prominent en-
gineers, whose ability assures the
city's continuance as a center Of
motor car manufacture, have been
trained here.

Have you dwelt on the thought

clusion Of any other thought? 1 be.
lieve you have and the first part Of
my recipe is: Never repeat the
thought even to yourself that you
are homely. Don't you realize that
what you think about yourself
really counts powerfully? If you've
thought that you are without a
single attraction, you've no doubt
reflected this inward conviction in
your facial expression, your
carriage, and your conversation.
No wonder that even the girls
don't take to you. It's not just
consolation, but a fact that real
charm-the kind that makes people
beloved--has very little to do with
physical beauty. Mental charm is
just loving thoughts shining through
the window of personality. You
can have it my dear, positively. For.
get yourself, relax, and quit caring
about your face and figure. See
how loving and charitably you can
think about everyone, and try to
find little things to do for those
about you. Put your thoughts-your
kind, loving thoughts on others in
stead Of yourself and let me know
in about three months If your life
isn't changing for the better.

LAPS THINK FILMS
 ARE REAL LIFE .F
Obtain False Ideas About U. s. 5
 Living

Tokyo, Nov. Popularity of the American moving picture also is . problem for the Japanese pro- ducers and theater owners.
 Their efforts 10 win the public away from the foreignmade films this far has met with but little sue Cess, although the native producers are continuing their campaign for the homemade variety.
 Picture makers here released S6- 7S5.oo0 feet of Japan made film last year. During the same time 15,oS6. 900 feet Of pictures was inn ported-mostIy from America.
 Like Comedies. Love Dramas
 Love dramas, comedies and west erns" are the American films most popular in Japan. But at the same time tho Japanese public likes its own films depicting important his- torical events of Nippon. These pro- auctions are devoid of any humor whatever and usually consist of scene after scene Of gory drama.
 They Believe In Cowboys
 The American films shown in Japan are generally understood by the Oriental fans" to truly repre- sent life as it is lived in the United States. That there are no real pic turesaue wild west" cowboys and load men" Of the frontier type, as ahown by the imported films, would not be believed by the natives who nightly flock to the theaters. "So- ciety" dramas as well as westerns cause the Japanese to smile and wonder at the "absurd' doings of the funny Americans
 But the picture theater business apparently is good in Japan right now. Official figures disclose that some 100000 feet of film are shown to the audiences daily. Every sheater has it's interlocutor, who, perched in front on specially con- structed das reads the sub-titles loudly and also describes, at times, the action of the play for the bene- fit of those who may not under stand.
 There are at present Sl1 moving , picture theaters in Japan and number of others are being built.
