Petrified Trees Resist ' ; i
Winds and Rain of Nevada
TONOPAH, Nev., April 4 That
there is a petrified forest, on oX
the most beautiful in the country,
within 40 miles of Tonopah, is a
fact not generally known. More
than 100 petrified trees are still
standing-, just as they grew origin
ally. " Little has been written
about this forest on account of its
inaccessibility. ,
The unique forest covers" several
hundred acres. The ground is
strewn with the fossilized bones
of animals, and here and there are
small coves. The entrance to
the forest is through a small
canyon which widens into a river
bed which, in design, reminds one
somewhat of the Orand Canyon.

1 1924 i
During,! 1924 the Chevrolet
Motor company was the third larg

the numbet of trucks sold by only
two other automobile companies.
Plans are now being; formulated
which, it is expected, I will greatly
increase truck sales during the
present year and may place Chev

There were nearly 24,000, Chev

sold last year. These
included, both the commercial
chassis and utility express types,
the greater portion sold, however,
being of the latter style. ,

The utility express has the reg-

there is a special bevel gear drive
at the rear axle.

ArOUSeS Interest in Japan
BERLIN, , April 4 Germany,
the Scandinavian countries and i
Japan, all are showing interest in
a proposal to operate an air route
over the North Pole area from the '
coast, of Russia to Alaska. The
Idea is not particularly new, but
it j has been revived recently be
cause of the improvements, of late
years, in airship construction. It
is understood' that Dr. Fridtjof j
Nansen has- offered - to lead such
an enterprise, under International i
support. : - i .
An airship a little larger than j
the Los Angeles is contemplated ;
for the run. May is'regarded as
the best month n which to start.

Russia, would be the European
point : of departture. i t The,- route
would be bver Emperor Francis
