FOR RECORD

DAYTONA BEACH. Fla, Jan.
1.-THE Daytona Beach Chamber of
\ Commerce Racing Association today
OFFICIALLY announced the schedule
for the speed meet to be held en-
\ Ormond Daytona Beach February
Is to %. 1928, inclusive. With one
exception, all of the events will be
speed contests rather than races
between cars and will be held under
the supervision of the contest board
OF the American Automobile As3o-
citation. The dates we're chosen to
secure low tide in daylight hours.
The major event will be an at
| tempt to break the worlds automo-
bile speed record of a rate of 2OS.19
miles per hour now held by Major
II. o. D. Segrave, of London, Eng
land. The tests in this event Will
be held from February II to 70
inclusive.
The American racers entered are
Frank Lockhart, American ace, and
j. M. White. Capt Malcolm Camp
bell, of London, England, also en-
tered, will attempt to retain the
worlds record for Great Britain.
Frank Lockhart will drive new
speed creation recently completed
at the Stutz factory in Indianapolis.
This is a small car designed Tor
minimum resistance to the wind.
J. M. White, prominent manu-
facturer of insulated automobile
wire, has built an 8,0OO-pound car
equipped with three airplane motors,
one in front of the drivers seat and
two motors side by side in the rear.
The motors, each of which has
twelve cylinders, are rated at
slightly below 500 horsepower each,
giving rated maximum of almost
1900 horsepower at about 1900
r. p. m.
Captain Campbelrs car, the Blue
bird, is fitted with Napier aero
! engine built for the British air min
istry rated to deliver $50 horsepower
but actually delivering nearer 1000
horsepower. This is stream line
car designed to overcome the effects
of unfavorable aerostatic conditions
when proceeding at high speed, and
has a high r. p. m. All Of these
cars. it is stated, are theoretically
able to do better than Major Sc.
gra .e's record.
Preceding the trials for the worlds
speed crown, the following events
will be held on February Is:
Stock cars listed at $1,000 and
under.
Stock cars listed for from $1,000
to $4,000.
February Is:
Cars listed at $4,000 and over.
Gentlemen's race open only to
amateur drivers who must drive
their own cars. Cars must be reg.
Olar stock.
The word listed" refers to the
regular published price of the cars.
There are many entries in the stock
car events. and also in the gentle.
mems race which is the only con.
test in which athe goal is to beat
another car rather than to defeat
old Father Time in the respective
class in which the car is entered.
The speed contests will be held
over a nine-mile stretch. with four
miles to attain maximum speed, one
mile to run over the electrically
timed course, and four miles to
slow down.

high speed is heir to. A low CEN
ter of gravity is a great step mas
much as the greatest danger at
high speed lies in the possibility OF
turning over Another great step
is fertilization against damage in
case of collision or sudden impact.
Dodge Brothers have embodied
these two guards against injury in
their new Victory Six motor. The
entire body is made of two walls
of sheet steel-battIeship type-with
an air space between. These walls
are joined together at various
points with lock joints giving the
body much greater strength by
creating a second defense against
accident.
For the first time in motor con-
struction the body and the chassis
are united into one solid unit in
this car. 1t would be practically
impossible to overturn this car even
on the sharpest corners.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

A lecture on Christian Science: Pres

ming in First Church OF Christ, Scientist,
by Robert Stanley Ross, @. S., of New
York City. Mr.. Ross is a member of
the board of lectureShip of the mother

by William @. Biederman. first reader
of First Church, under whose auspices
the lecture was given. The lecturer said

less, that owing to fear, sorrow, remorse,
resentment, jealousy, hatred. and so on,
the patient believes he has q diseased
condition Of the body which can be got

ton. Well, even though the diseased
condition must have been con-
ceived mentally before it could have
become evident physically removed,
the cause of the difficulty Is, the
patients belief in. fear of or other mem
tai association there with-is uncorFect-
ed The top OF the weed has been

Plainly, the sort Of surgical operation
that needs TO be performed is this (if
may use somewhat ordinary express

through Christian Science, the science
of infinite mind, how, on the basis of
their unhealthy, to cut out some of his
fearful. dishonest, resentfuI, jealous,
sensual, hateful thinking. Can you get

way of surgeons knife? Would you
attempt to overcome fearful, an irri-
table or jealous disposition by swal-

some of the hidden. unseen mental
causes, for the surgery of Christian Sci
ence is the activity of divine principle,
love, the science of infinite good, oper-
ating in human consciousness by over
coming and casting out sick and sinful
beliefs which have no reality, but are
unprincipled, unlawful, unrighteous hui
man impositions upon the race. Scrip
ture tells us that true surgery is not ma
terial but spiritually, divinely mental;
dealing not with ones body, which is
effect, but with ones thinking, which
is the erring cause. When a diseased
condition is overcome in this truly
Christian and scientific manner the pa
tient is benefited not only physically
but mentally and morally-the weed is
pulled up by the roots, hence there can
be no relapse or return.
