By the Assoviated - [wheel of the V, either of his boats could dgfeat the Teaser over the same course. Hoyt did not accept the callenge. The Gar IV averaged 46% miles an hour on the trip, it was officially an- nounced. The train’s average was 38.94 miles an_ hour, but it- “loafed" over much of the distance. Also fig- | ured in this time was the stop for a {change from steam to electric loco- motive and the slow running time re- quired in the city limits. Over some | stretches the train made 58 miles an hour. It was a race against time and circumstance for Wood. Not only did he have to combat the vagaries of temperamental highly powered motor- boat engines, but he was confused when the Twentieth Century’s first section left Albany considerably ahead of_its usual scheduled time. Twice in midstream Gar, Wood, at some risk, changed boats while they were driving ahead at great speed. As the hoats were racing past Hudson, Wood, piloting the Baby 1V, decided that the leading Baby V's engines were “hitting best” and sig- naled his - brother George, at the that he wanted to exchange boats. George Wood slow- ed down and Gar Wood, accompanied by Charles F. Chapman, official timer, a hazardous transfer. At Poughkeepsie, however, the Baby V's engines were ynissing fire, whereupon Gar Wood and Chapman again trans- ferred. At times theBaby IV was 7 and 8 miles behind the speeding first section of the train and the contest was nip and tuck most of the way.

PAT.OFFICE DIKEMANS SUCCESS Will Extend to Baltimare GJln Invitation for You to Share/ HE STORY of Dikeman’s carries a message of encouragement to the average individual. It is a typical tale of this “Land of Opportunity.” Opportunity is here—in this wonderful coun- try; in this section of it; and in this particular announcement! She is for those that see her, and, seeing, act with unshakable faith, until successful. 84y £ HE IDEA of the Dikeman stores was born over thirty years ago. As a boy at Atlantic City the sight of a vender making gallons of luscious orange juice made a lasting impression on the then young Dikeman. Years intervened, most of them actively engaged in the Store No. 4 3034 14th St. N.W. “show” business—an acknowledged point of vantage for studying the pub- lic. They but strengthened Mr. Dikeman’s belief that here, properly mer- chandised, was the basis of a highly successful business. After months of experimenting he at last perfected a practical method for extracting juice from oranges on a commercial scale. He was He knew the health value of confident he knew the American public. Dikeman's Delicious 5¢ CRANGE BEVERAGE Orange Juice, the wide popularity of its thirst-quenching flavor. But how was he to make those with money see the possibilities of such a business? Weeks of soliciting, explaining and interviewing followed be- fore this was accomplished. “Too visionary.” “You'll starve to death dur- ing the winter months.” “You'll never sell enough” were some of the ob- jections. N.W. Finally, Fifteen Hundred Dollars ‘was obtained— hardly enough to start the enterprise, and one little store at 431 Ninth St. N.W. was opened. That was in April, 1916. Everything was on a small scale. Oranges were bought by the single crate and sugar several pounds at a time. The first two months, naturally enough, business was Store No. 5 1338 F Street N.W. small, for the idea was new to the public. But as the public learned that DIKEMAN'S was not just the ordinary “orange-ade,” that it was not primarily a “prohibition beverage”—but the delightful healthful drink of selected California and Florida Oranges sweet- ened with pure cane sugar, business grew, grew, GREW—and is growing today faster than ever! ODAY Mr. Dikeman buys his oranges by CARLOADS instead of by the crate, and his sugar by the ton! From the original little seed of $1,500 has grown a firmly entrenched business oak whose profitable branches are about to spread to the city of Baltimore!
