Many cars are standing along
the road at passing turnouts as
we descend on the other side of
the summit with radiators steam-
ingf hoods open and some even
lifted entirely oit m the cars.
Where water is available car
owners are seen pouring water
into the radiators in a constant
stream in effort to cool the en
gines. We have had no trouble of
this kind with our Nash "400"
which has not heated to the boil
ing point at any time during the
whole trip so far. We are now at
Kingman, Arizona, making' a short
stop here and then away toward
our destination for the night. The
country through which we are

At Peach Springs, (Arizona; we
stopped at the hotel fovef ; night
and in the morning had oar breakfast-with
a large crew of highway
builders who are working on con
tracts in this section which they
told us was to have fine roads in
tha near future. Our next inter

registered in at the Government
Camp, located our cabin (No. 18)
and then went immediately to
view the afternoon reflections of
the sun and to watch the sunset
which is a spectacle of wondrous
beauty.
Returning to our cabin we find
that no convenience has been ov

with all the conveniences of a ho

For the second time within the

has come through his colorful pre

American art. Sammons goes out
Into the desert and catches the
colors that are found there when
the desert sin is cruelest. He goes
into the high Sierras when the
mountain passes are blacked with
snow in order that he may authen
tically reproduce those cold colors
that cannot be created in. the ixn

accurate reproductions of western
scenery, his canvases have a
strong appeal for both men and
women who love the west.
