INDIAN DAY

OPENING

A SURE SIGN OF SPRING

With motorcycle enthusiasts, February 22nd gains additional interest from being the day set apart for showing the newest styles in Indian motorcycles. Sllcger Eros., the local agents for Inciian motorcycles, have made plans for keeping oren house on TVedntday neat, and as this is a legal holiday, thoy expect a big turn out of the local motorcycle fans. For many years it has been the custom of the Indian agents to prepare for early spring business by an opening and display of their various new models on February 22nd. Upon these occasions, music, flowers and sourenlrs are provided and the general ptibtic is Invited to ccrr:e and see. The steady growth in the popularity of the motorcycle is due to various factors. The machine itse'.f Is now being made lighter in weight; It is hung lower to the ground; while quick starting and easy handling ha-, e made the Indian as much a woman's as a mam's steed. Terhars the greatest factor in favor of the motorcycle in its economy of upkeep and operation.
