Long pipes of stone, perfectly
moulded as a (Jreclan vase, were
the first things found by Mr.
Hittle. "1 thought they were Home

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

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

A skeleton of a woman with two
stone weapons crossed over her

beads nor metal ornaments adorn

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

trust lire and victory lo Firestone
Leadership. That same leadership is
available to you ut all Firestone
Dealers.
