PENNEBAKER ENTERS H1MOIOR SPEEDWAY

Enters Cap Equipped With Knight Engine Wants to Drive Without Mechanician

Indianapolis, Ind., May 3. Entries for the third annual 500-mile International Sweepstakes Race, to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, May 30th, continue to come into the office of the speedway management, the latest being that, of a specially built car with a Knight engine, which has been entered by Robert H. Pennebaker, a wealthy sportsman and garage owner of Memphis, Tenn. According to advices received from Memphis, thk car is one of the fastest ever built in the United States, and the owner is willing and even anxious to put it in the great battle of cylinders against the fast European and American cars which have been entered. Its powerful engine is equipped with cylinders the dimensions of. which are 5% by 5%, which gives a displacement of 443.5 cubic inches. This is somewhat larger than most of the cars which have been entered to date, but is still within the limitation of 450 cubic inches, prescribed for this year's race.

Mr. Pennebaker announces that he will drive the car himself, and with that end in view has petitioned the contest board of the American Automobile Association for a driver's license. He has never had any track experience", it is said, but he is a veteran of the road and is reputed to be an expert driver, cool headed and scientific, but in no way lacking in nerve and daring. Mr. Pennebaker has also made the unusual request that he be allowed to drive without a mechanician, as did Harroun, winner of the 500-mile race at Indianapolis in -1911. It is scarcely possible, however, that this request will be granted, since the contest board of A. A. A. management of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway does not believe in permitting race participants to assume any unneces

sary risks, and it is deemed expedient that a mechanician shall ride with every driver to keep a lookout for other cars.-

This is the second car to be entered in the coming 500-mile race which is equipped with the Knight motor. The first, the MercedesKnight, entered several days ago by E. C. Patterson, of Chicago, and which will be driven by Pilette, the famous Belgian, marked the introduction of the sliding valve to the long distance race. It is considered a complete innovation in racing circles and will be watched very closely by those who are interested in the technical side of racing cars. The foreign built Mercedes is a srdaller car than the American car entered "by Pennebaker, but since they both caryy the same sliding valve engines their performances should offer ai% interesting study. It is generally conceded that in no way can a car be tested as thoroughly as in the long grind on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and a battle royal is expected between these twro Knight equipped cars.

The chug of the big racing chariots is becoming an every day sound at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway nowadays. The Stutz team is working every day and making records which argue well for the showing of these cars on May 30th. Ralph DePalma and Spencer Wishart, who with Caleb Bragg will compose the Mercer team,,, are also at the Speedway subjecting the smallest of their three cars to a severe workout. DePalma and Wishart are taking turns at the wheel and in addition to testing tires they are giving the engine of the car a good tuning up. Johnny Jenkins is also trying out his Schact entry, and although he has not tried to make any records as yet, he is studying his engine thoroughly, and as soon as he feels" perfectly acquainted with it will turn on full power in an attempt against time.

The first of May witnessed man^ interesting additions te the colony of drivers and mechanics gathered at the Speedway, and by May 12th it is expected that all of the cars entered will be trying their paces on the big brick oval. The Peugeot cars which axe coming from France and the Sunbeam which will be shipped from England, are expected in Indianapolis by that time, and Goux, the record smashing Peugeot pilot, who recently put a crimp in all the world's speed records at the Brooklands track in England, is bound to be the center of attraction. His team-mate, Zucarelli, together with Albert Guyot, the Frenchman who will pilot the Sunbeam car, will arrive with Goux and they will lose no time in familiarizing themselves with the Indianapolis track. The three Isottas which are now assured entries, have arrived in New York and will be brought to Indianapolis shortly. It is said that E. E. Hewlett, the California race enthusiast who will enter one of these Italian cars, has completed arrangements with Teddy Tetzlaff to' drive his entry. R. C. Gilhoolev, who has brought the cars to this country, will undoubtedly pilot- another, while the driver for the third has not yet been nominated.

Rev. Huddleson, of Philadelphia, called on M. T. Willett and wife Sunday evening and also attended the services at the M. E. church here Sunday night.

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1913

The DeatK of a Good Woman

It is with deep regret that we chronicle the death of Mrs. May White Boyd, wife of James Rader Boyd, of this city, which occurred Saturday, April 26, 1913 at Dr. C. K. Bruner's Sanitarium. Mrs. Boyd had been in declining health for more than two years, and, after serious deliberation, an operation wras decided upon, and Dr. Noble, of Indianapolis, was called to this city, when all that lay in the power of a skilled surgeon was done to relieve her suffering, but all to no avail. She never rallied from the shock and gradually failed until on Saturday evening at 8 o'clock she passed away.

Mary White Boyd, daughter of Armanda and Minor White, was born at Knightstown, Ind., October 26, 1869. At the age of 21 she came to Greenfield, where she lived continuously until her death. On August 8, 1906, she was united in marriage to James R. Boyd, and she departed this life April 26, 1913. Beside a loving husband, a sister, Mrs. Otto Slifer two brothers, Benjamin and John White, and two nephew^ Edgar Oscars and Segar Slifer, are among her immediate relatives.

Mrs. Boyd was an active member of the Presbyterian church, a member of the Order of the Eastern Star, the Domestic Science Club and the Franchise League.

The funeral occurred from the home Tuesday afternoon, April 29. Rev. Williamson, of the Presbyterian church, delivered a fitting and touching address. Mrs. George H. Cooper read a poem and Mrs. John F. Mitchell read the following tribute: "Out among the far golden distances of light where God dwells, there is a place of stillness and of soft shadows known to' immortals as the Gateway of the Angels. Over its cloudy quietude the glowing radiance of the inner Paradise seldom or never beams, where a mystic silence reigns, yet more than a million angels are gathered there together, forever watching, forever waiting with folded pinions and down drooping heads they kneel, a glorious multitude upon the misty verge between earth's time and heaven's eternity" angels whose duty it is to listen for the fir^t warning of a soul's flight from its earthly house, that they may descend and bear it into the realms of peace. And so it happened that when the day had merged into soft shadows, a warning note was sounded and a silent messenger came into our midst and bore into the presence of the waiting multitude, the soul of Mary, the beloved wife of James Rader Boyd, at a time when Jhe hope of a speedy return to health was stimulated.

As friends and neighbors we are assembled today to pay a tribute of love to a womanly woman, to extol her virtues, wiiich were many, and to open the flood-gates of sympathy that it may encompass and enfold the hearts of those who mourn.

The home of this friend was a radiating center of kindness and good fellowship. She was warmhearted, sympathetic and hospitable to a degree. The cheer of her home, the influence of her genial, sunny nature touched and brightened many lives.

In her church relationship she was loyal and true, ever alive to its interests and advancement, and active in its auxiliaries. Her interests, too, embraced the woman's activities of our cities, as a member of various organizations.

The absorbing interest of her life was in her husband and her home. It was here that the best that was in her nature was revealed—the cheerful, untiring service, the kind devotion of a loving heart. The depth of her womanly character was revealed too in the tender care she bestowed upon her aged mother, and the joy and comfort she brought into her last days in the care of a brother with whom she shared her home in the mother-love and interest she showered uppn a nephew left to*her care in his early youth, and in her devotion to an 'only sister, with whom she shared her sorrows and her joys. Especially was her womanly character revealed in her loyalty to her friends and her excellence as a neighbor—ever alive to the needs and comforts of all whose life she touched.

Through nature's smiles ^and tears we learn life's sternest lessons. In the morning of life, with its roseate hues, the. weight of sorrow and bereavement falls less heavily, for the fulness of youth te upon us, with its hopes, its purports, its ambitions and aspirations, and the loss of friends and loved ones soon resolve into a softened sorrow but as we near the meridian of life—when the shadows are falling toward the West—when the joys of youth -&nd worldly ambitions give place to better things, w£ learn that the real joy of life is found in the home, Jn the presence

of those we love best. It is then that bereavement takes on a different meaning it is then that desolation fills the heart with shadows gray and meaningless shadows that are never wholly dispelled it is then, too, that we hold to the promise of eternal life and are drawn nearer to Him who said: "Let not your heart be troubled.""'

To the husband, who sustains the greatest loss that comes to man, the loss of a true, devoted wife, is left the memory of seven years of perfect home life and companionship, of mutual understanding and mutual devotion, of peace and unalloyed happiness.

When God saw that it was not good for man to be alone, he made women for his companion: "taking the life element from his side that she might be his equal, from under his arm that he might protect her and close to his heart that he might love and cherish her." May this bereaved husband find comfort in the knowledge that he was true to his God-given relationship, that he filled the life of her he mourns with loving solicitation, with kindly patience and appreciation things dear to a women's heart.

Why this untimely passing of this friend, in the fullness of life and usefulness we do not know. Science has explored many fields and solved many mysteries, but the mystery of life and death remains unexplained.

In this home there is a deepening of the hearth shadows, but out of the gloom the promise comes: "I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you."

"I can not say, I will not say That she is dead—She is just away!
