Seeing With Our Eyes Shut
In this day and age when there
lis SO much to see with ones eyes,
it may seem foolish to shut them to
see-but the things we want to see
come more vividly when the lids are
closed. Pictures of friends and
neighbors who have finished the
course" who have gone on, come as
no artist has or could paint. No
camera could catch the wonders of
the scenes that fit by. In fact reel

Our friend Silas of the Renrock
pencil, is sure the "timid boy" when
it comes to telling about his home

McGregors, we were permitted to at
tend the revival at Renrock M. p,
church, Sunday night. In spite Of at
least three children's services round
about, with other services and at
fractions, the building was made
quate to hold the crowd. Not a
Sunday night crowd,-just an aver
age crowd. Singing! If there was
ever a choir gathered together any
where that could beat them, it never
got in print. The Booster choir made
up of boys and girls will have
charge of the half hour song service
Friday night. This part of the SER
vice will be worth. going miles to
hear.

Last Saturday night about Is in

of Mr.. and Mrs. Ed Stegner. The
crowd represented about all the hon

itself by tripping the Eight fan

SPEEDWAY CITY OWES ITS BIRTH
AND GROWTH TO AUTO BUSINESS;
ONE-DAY CAPITAL OF MOTORDOM


The town the automobile built should be the name Of
Speedway City.
growing town of about 00Opopulation it is famous
the world location of the Indianapolis Motor Speed
way and the PrestOLte Storage Battery Corporation
One day year it is the hub Of a revolving motor
world and the other 1854 days its principal product the
PrestOe storage battery being shipped to all parts of
the world
Speedway City really it's birth to the genius of
Carl G. Fisher millionaire Indianapolis and Florida nancier
and promoter who in 1916 established the Presto fac
tory the road from the Speedway which he together
with three other men, had built years BEFORE 1902
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1930-05-29

Today the factory occupies
100000 square feet of floor
space, employs between 600
and 1000 men, and produces
$4,000 batteries a day.
Speedway City is model town,
grown rapidly, but with a firm foun-
dalton.
Fisher is the president of the
Speedway Realty Company, which
has aided materially in the growth
of the suburb. L. H. Trotter is vice.
president and general manager.
A modern school is one of the
boasts of the little town. The ma
jority of the inhabitants own their
own homes and take lively inter
est in the development of their viii
lage.
One of the features of Speedway
City is the approach to the town
from the east under the turreted
bridge over White river and En-
IlCIlSF1IlGs
Three-quarters of a century ago
an ambitious young couple, Chris
tan and Angelica Enrich, left
Bavaria to come to the United
States. In the east they heard
about the growing capital of In
diana and laboriously made their
way here.
Christian Enrich had learned the
blacksmith and wagon building
trade in Germany and established
shop at the crossing of two roads
east of Indianapolis.
Through the years that came two
OF his sons, Jacob and Frank, helped
him in his work and the crossroads
with it's blacksmith shop, inn, and

little store became known as En-
richsVille.
Today five grandchildren live at
Emrichsville. They are Mrs. Bertha
Lohrmann, Mrs. Lena Weinbrecht,
Mrs. ESta Turner, Ellsworth Enrich,
and John w. Enrich.
Until seven years ago, a son,
Jacob E. Enrich, was the patriarch
of the little village which grew
around the crossroads. Jacob was
justice of the peace for forty years
and was a county commissioner
when the present jail was planned.
The Emrichsville bridge never was
completed, because of litigation in
1906, but,it impresses itself upon all
tourists because of its peculiar con-
struction, a reproduction of an old
bridge in England.
Among the businesses which have
helped in the growth of Speedway
City and Enlrichsville are: The
Speedway Realty Company, in bust
ness fifteen years; the Rainbow
Cone Shoppe, Barnes Confectionery
store; Miller's Luncheonette, Ros-
ner's Pharmacy, also in business
fifteen years; the Zinck Market; H.
Owens Oil station; Speedway Clean
ers, the Artificial Ice Company; the
Walter Thompson poolroom and
restaurant; the Speedway bank, of
which A. o. Ruse is president; Helf-
ner service station; Grande'S hard
ware store; the Wigwam Service
station; Presto Beauty Shop; r. E.
Hensen barber shop; Speedway City
Coal Company, headed by D. L. Bill
bee; John A. Grande, greenhouse
in operation thirty-five years;
