 How was it, we asked, that the British have such monopoly on the speed records-on the ground, in the air an don the water?
 They have better motors" re- sponded Barney. The British gov- ernment controls the designs for the motors used by Campbell's racer and guards them carefully Americans were not permitted to examine Campbell's motors at any time before or after he did 245 miles an hour last winter.
 Tn my opinion, the American machines sent down to Daytona for the speed trials have not been pro- perly built. I think the deaths of Lockhart and Bible proved that. Lockhart, in the machine tn t either Segrave or Campbell drove, probably would have done as well as the Britons.
 T take nothing away from the courage and skill of Campbell, but I believe he would agree with mo the machine is about 90 per cent Of this record-breaking business"

With one accord we pulled out fresh cigars and leaned up against the wall The rest of the boys were talking horse-racing, since it was Louisville and the night be- fore the Derby.
 Barney Oldfield, however, pre- ferred to smoke cigar and talk auto-racing. Barney never rode a horse. He still drives automobiles at fairly rapid clip, although he has retired from speedway compe- tition.
 You hear a lot of talk about these high speeds in an automobile and what terrific strain it must be and all that sort of thing" re- marked Barney, shifting his cigar There's no real sensation to it.
 T set a worlds record more than 21 years ago down at Daytona-131 miles an hour in my old Blitzen Benz. Remember that one? Well, all l had to do was sit tight, keep my aim and let 'er fly. Segrave and Campbell have gone more than 100 miles an hour faster, but I doubt if their sensations were any different than mine It's like be- ing up in an airplane when you go that fast.

A Sermon for Today
What Is Good for Man =
BY REV. JOHN R. GUNS.

Do you know? Have you ever
thought much about it? What do you
think is good for you? What does life
mean 10 you? What are your JOYS
YOUR pleasures, your inspirations?
Wherein do you get the most out OF
life?
The famed philosopher. DIR. VIII Du-
rant, recently sent out QUESTIONABLE
to number of prominent people, ask
ing them the following questions
What is your philosophy of life?
What keeps YOU going? What are the
sources Of your inspiration and your
energy2 What is the goal or motive
force of your toll? Where do you find
your consolation and your happiness?
Where in the last resort does your
Treasure lie?"
In his QUESTIONABLE Mr.. Durani
states that he has studied and nved
philosophy for many years but that
nov he turns from it back to life itself
and wants 10 know where life may be
found. That is what we all want to
know. We are all out to find life. but
where TO find it, that Is the question
We see going On in the world a mighty
scramble for wealth, for Injuries and
pleasures. for social station. for place
and power, for notoriety and renown
and all this Scrambling Is but a mad
effort to find life All who search for
life in these directions eventually turn
back with the marks OF sad and tragic
disappointment upon their faces.

answer who went all the rounds that
