Destruction of the relics, which re sulted, necessitated closing the mound until scientists could he on hand to supervise the work. Long pipes of stone, perfectly moulded as a (Jreclan vase, were the first things found by Mr. Hittle. "1 thought they were Home kind of musical Instrument" he stated yesterday afternoon, "but I couldn't get a tune out of them. 'l then saw what I think Is tobacco leaked In the Inside of this one." The pipe of which he spoke, is the most beautifully constructed of them all with threads at the end uf the stem and a thin baud carved round the middle. It is smoothly hollowed out inside, as nre all the others, but Is covered at the end with a, substance which is believed to be remains of the last pipeful smoked. Skeletons were found of men, buried sitting up. with their knees tucked under their chins. As many as five were located in one grave, placed in a circle all facing In. With them were the arrows and knives, mallets and stone hatchets, which they were taking with them to the Imppy hunting ground. A skeleton of a woman with two stone weapons crossed over her breast was ntso unearthed. No beads nor metal ornaments adorn ed her tomb.

OK Ion consecutive wars- all the win. un ears in lhat classic of automobile racing, the Indianapolis 500 Mile endurance race, Hashed across the finish line on Firestone Tires, L LN FACT every famous driver in lliese races used Firestone Tires. Every one of them for years has refused to use any oilier ami the reasons hehind their choice tell a story of Firestone Leadership. 1 HE In.l ill nnpolia Unco requires the iiiohI expert driv ing in the worlil.

It is heat lhat causes most tires lo fail. The ordinary road tread will hiii n up on a Iraek, and so for il Firestone substitutes a harder, light er trend whieh would he exceedingly iineomforlahle on, the road hut whieh perfectly answers the truck requirements. , Tl. T lllE LlIAT, however, is only a detail.. The reason why Fire stone Tires stand up in any rare is In he round in their construction. Tim same construction that you get in any Firestone Tire. LllESE drivers liny Firestone Tires. Their tires are not given to them by Firestone, much less are they paid to use them. And herein is the story. MaNY years ago, Firestone did pay drivers to race, The most famous of lliese drivers was Harney Oldficld und he painted on his ear: "Firestone Tires Are My Only Life Insurance". T LN THE course of time Firestone withdrew from rac ing und Ihe making of raring tires. Then the trouble began. The leading drivers of the country said thai it w as IW r. Firestone's business whether or not he paid thciii lo use his tires, but it was their business to judge the risks llie.y would take. They would nice on Firestone Tires, no mutter what they cosU or they would not race at all. And so Firestone hud again to make racing tires. TlE difference be tween a Firestone racing tire und the Firestone lire you can buy from your dealer lies only in the trend. The heut generated i'l 11 tire during u ruee is LtN ALL tires other than Firestone, the cotton cords which go to make up the carcass of the tire are merely imbedded in rub ber. In the complex twisting and pulling of these cords in a tire in action, the fillers in the cnrifs rub against one another. The friction generates heat and wheif the heat reac hes a certain point the lire col lapses. In THE Firestone Tire, each of the millions of line cot ton libers going to make up a cord is thoroughly insulated with rubber in the famous, patented (Jiini-Ulp-ping process which is exclusive with Firestone. This reduces the friction in the cords und therefore reduces Ihe heut and enables the Firestone Tire to perform normally under 'conditions where any other tire would collapse. I O RACING cur con he better than ils tires. Neither cun uny other car. The raring drivers trust lire and victory lo Firestone Leadership. That same leadership is available to you ut all Firestone Dealers. tiiiks .ti iii:s . iivrri:iiii:s . iiuaki: linixu Copyright, 1910, Thf Fire ton Tire A Rubber Co, Let Us Show You These Wonderful Tires Car Washing $1.75 and up ALEMITE Lubrication jfM "Jim" "Bill" fi Smith" watrin? . j , FIRESTONE ONE-STOP SERVICE Riverside at Ninlh St." 1 Phone 520 ' ti - V , .y-
