Many persons who know Ralph De
Talma as a daring and skillful racing
driver are not aware that he made his
first bid for fame as an amateur bi
cycle racer in 1898.
After four successful seasons he
turned professional and won many no
table victories. A year later he cast
aside the leg-powered vehicle for its
motor-propelled brother and as a mo
torcycle racer gained considerable suc
cess. After four years with the two
wheeler he contracted the automobile
racing fever and since 1907 has been
known the world over as a successful
racer. His most notuble triumph was
the winning of the great 500 mile race
at Indianapolis in 1915,
For five years ail his victories have
been won on Goodyear tires.
Folding Table for Tourist.
For motor tourists and campers a
table has been invented that folds
compactly around a cuvbeard to hold

No Hit-or-Miss
Methods
You can tru! compare the construction of the
LALLEY LIGHT with the art of fine watch build
ing. For the LALLEY is built with just such
care, precision and exactness.
First, every part of the LALLEY LIGHT is nicit
carefully selected premium prices are actually
paid for the highest grade materials; then ever
Having part is fitted to the fraction o( a thou
sandth of an inch; every single screw, nut and
bolt is individually inspected for exact fit and
accuracy and for strength. There can be no
hit or miss in the building of the LALLEY;
there can be no hurrying in its assembling
there can be no slighting in its final inspection.
And so the LALLEY LIGHT runs day in and
day out, year in and year out, quietly, smoothly,
positively, sending forth its power to light your
borne and your farm, to operate the milking
machine, the washing machine, or what-not-requiring
the minir.ium of attention and giving
you the maximum in the saving of time and
money.
There are so many interesting things to tell you
about the LALLEY LK-UT that you must come
in and have it exnlairec. T-v LAL'.Y Bor,
too, is well worth readui. rop in tX your
convenience.
