Of pression-clcaving unto the dust.
This may arise from want of knowl-
edge as TO Gods way of deliverancc,
or from lack Of faith, or from want OF
will. Any of these causes will bring
us into captivity TO the law Of sin.
The tendency of that law is downward
unto the dust" But none of Gods
children need be brought under that
law
But now is Il that all believers do
not live in tho power OF this superior
law Because they do not fulfill the
conditions. We cannot rise trium-
phantly above the influences Of the
world. and rejoice in freedom from
the law of sin. unless we are abiding

must be knowledge according to
Thy word" There must be faith

Speed Records for 1915.

Jerome Shaw. one Of the best posted OF TO-
writers ON the technical press on racing statistic
has a number OF charts and tables in The Horse
less Age" of October - which will prove OF III
;erest TO the motor racing fans
Mr. Shaw show. that the Stutz team started isS'
season in thirty-eght races, road and speedway
Stutz cars finished first six times and second ter
times The Maxwels started In twenty-nine races
and were first five times and second three timos'
The Peugeots started twenty-three times and were
first four times and second twice. The Mercers
started nineteen times and were hrst twice Ralph
De Palma started his Mercedes in seven races and
got one first the last Indianapolis Speedway oOo-
mile event.
In a table showing the winners Of all 1919 road
and speedway races wonderful increase OF speed
during the il noticeable
II climbed to 1929 miles per hour, which was
the average made by Anderson In the Aston Cup
The cars which opened the season were the same
which will close It at Sheepshead Bay November 2
so the increase In speed during the year has been
due entirely to the improvement of the tracks
The cars, as matter of fact, lost speed as the
season advanced, while the tracks became faster.
Had the cars kept pace with the speedwsys, we
might have closed the season with speed or 10
or 20 miles per hour.
Mr. Shaw figures Earl Cooper as the all-round
champion pilot Of the last season and the Stut1
cars as leading the field in number OF victories
Cooper. who was also the champion driver OF the
soson Of 1918 last season started in eleven races
won three was second three times. fourth twice
and was eliminated three times. Under the point
scoring system Cooper had 81 points against SO fo-
Gil Anderson and Eddie O'Donnel, his nearest
competitors.

The Used Car Swindler.

Assistant District Attorney Gates, who handles

Of the District Attorney Of New York tells me It Is
almost impossible 10 indict or convict the u'edcsr

His Office is overrun with complaints from meh
and women who have been stung by the used-eef
"Gyp,' but after their complaints are invest gated
and thoroughly silted for evidence of fraud ths'
would hold before the grand jury not one IN ten
can be developed into case against the swinder
When we realize that not more than one IN ten
of the buyers who fall into the hands of these
rascals have the nerve to notify the DistrIct
Attorney and that 10 is impossible for him TO pros
ecute those who reported, we can get an idea o!
the rich harvest the "Gyp" is reaping
But more surprising than the volume OF his ousi-
ness lie the quality Of his trade. He catches both
well-to-do boobs and poor simps. The wise ousi-
