WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, FRIDAY, JULY 11, 1919 RALPH DE PALMA LIKES AND USES THE "EXIDE" The International Auto race held at Sheepshead Bay, June 14, has caus- ed much comment in the automobile world. The marvelous feat perform- ed by Ralph De Palma has naturally called for criticism of machines. : De Palma won the 50-mile race in a Packard racing car, breaking the world's record. He averaged 113 miles an hour throughout the greater part of the race. To the spectators the excitement was intense, the first 25 miles of the FIND SOLDIER'S GARB ternoon, July 5.

Twelve times around the 2-mile track four high- powered racing cars swept along at break-neck speed, almost wheel to wheel. Sixty thousand persons were held breathless, for it looked as though any moment the cars would crash together. In the thirteenth lap De Palma shot | right ahead of his competitors and | gradually increased his lead. His car | at this time reached a speed of 140 | miles an hour! "Think of the enormous strain on man and car to accomplish this won- derful feat!" says the manager of the | local "Exide" Service station, com- | menting on the race. "Every: detail | of the car must be as strong as every | nerye in the man. After all the suc- , cessful tests that the 'Exide' battery has gone through, it gives me the greatest 'pleasure to think that De Palma's car was equipped with an 'Exide' battery that the soldier has met a like fate.

Chica- go and territory within a seventy- mile radius has had no "lost" towns. The highway transport committee in- tends to tap with motor routes, com- munities through which tha railroads have found it unprofitable to build spurs. It believes that motor express routes through deserted farming sec- tions and towns which lack trans- portation facilities can be made to pay.
