that you should adhere to the

will be on all of your maps one
common junction — Christianity.
You will fail yourself, your coun-

River Record Is
Sought By Trio
DALLAS <C.B — Three Little
Rock, Aik., men will start Satur-
day in a 17-foot boat to try to beat
the Mississippi River motorboat
record from New Orleans to St.
Louis.
The three men are William Ted-
ford, who runs a boat company;
Tedfoid's son: and George Red, a
mechanic who works for Tedford.
They will put their boat the Robert
E. Lee. in the river at New Orleans
about 4 . m. Saturday and expect
to arrive in St. Louis 40 hours
later.
The present record is something
like 56 hours. Red said. To make
the time of 40 hours, the Robert
E. Lee will have to average some
28 miles an hour.
"We've timed the Robert E. Lee
at 38 miles an hour," Red said,
"so we think we'll be able to make
it in 40 hours."
