Glideheart is a sure foal getter and he gets the right kind. He is only 6 years old and has two colts that are very fast and his colts have never been beaten in the show ring. They have the size and quality and disposition and all of

his get are first class. And Delaral (50152) is the best horse that has ever been in this part of the country. He has never been beaten in the show ring. He has the blue ribbon to show for it. He is by Delacy Heart, trial 2:12%; half brother to Alix, 2:03%; Ananias P., 2:04(4; Green Pilot P., 2:05%; Caspian, 2:07%; Wilkes Heart, 2:06%; Octo, 2:07%; Heter B.

Such horses are Great Heart, Manbrino Russell, 2008; George Wilkes, 519; Mambrino Chief, 11; Guarantee, 6903; Hamiltonian, 10. A word to the public. If you have a good mare don’t breed her to some horse because some one says he is a good horse or says he is standard bred or has a mark. Make them show you and if you don't know, investigate before it is too late and don’t breed to a horse that hasn't shown you what he is. A horse that isn’t full blooded isn’t fit to breed to. Their colts may look just as good while cuckling the mare but they won’t grow nut and you can’t get the price when you wan’t to sell. Some men will say his horse has a mark of so and so. That may be true and yet he never sired a colt that had any speed. The horse that gets the individual is the kind to breed to and Glideheart gets both speed and show colts and Delaral hasn’t got any old enough to show speed but he also gets the size and quality. These horses are Standard and Registered under Rule 1, American Trotting association.

For further information see Jim W. Andrews, the owner of GHdeheart,Delaral and Nancy Moe, Monroe, Ind. I am prepared to take care of you if you have a draft mare and want to get a general purpose horse. Breed to one of these horses or a mare that is hard to get in foal as I use a pregnator and all of the latest equipments and if you have a registered ware I will get your colt registered free of [charge.

ALL IS BUSINESS AT THE PITS —i <■ Jb-J I £ A GLIMPSE OF THE PITS, INDIANAPOLIS SPEEDWAY

While the eyes of the public are naturally turned upon the drivers who will participate in the third annual 500-mile International Sweepstakes race which will be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 30, there are other men who have their share of the work to do and upon whom the driver is largely dependent for his success. These are “the men at the pits,” those expert workmen, who are able to make the most complicated repairs on a car in a mlraculously shoit time. Every car muit nave its pit-men, and these men must work with the speed of lightning and the precision of machinery. When a (s compelled to come to the pits for repairs or tire changes, seconds are precious, and every man must know exactly what to do and when to io it. For the spectators, this pit work Is as interesting and as exciting as the contest itself, and this year arrangements have been made so that

’the public will be able to enjoy this part of the performance to the fullest extent. Jules Guyot and Paul Zuccarrelll the Frenchmen who will compose the Peugeot team will be accompanied to this country by a large force of mechanics and repair men, who have secured their training in the Peugeot factory in Paris. So vitally Important do the foreigners consider their pit work, that these men are kept in opustant practice, and even when they are not engaged in racing they are forced to have "pit drill’’ almost dally. Albert Guyot, the driver of the English Sunbeam car, is also a Frenchman. but his working force will be composed of men from the Sunbeam factory, which is located at Wolverhampton. England.

LOOKS AFTER THE DETAILS I ~ . J . * I r Wat I r '' J/ t '■ I M 1 gs i J 1 1 THEODORE E. MYERS. Staging a 500-mile race is no easy < task, but the man who does most to make it a financial success and, therefore, an artistic success, Is Theodore 1 E. Myers, auditor of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. It is Myers’ duty, I among many others, to see that the 1 visitors to the Speedway are properly cared for. Seeing that all those seats get to the people who buy them; see- I Ing that the purchasers are properly care for and entertained when they reach Indianapolis—that Is part of the work of Mr. Myers. And there were 80,000 in attendance at the race last year. Myers is one of the most trusted employes of the Speedway corporation and enjoys the greatest confidence of Carl G. Fisher, president of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, who is really responsible for the staging of the race. Myers has handled the m;iss of details for both the former 500mile races. The success of those events is a matter of automobile race record.
