An all-day hunt Sunday by organ-
J ized searchers over two sections of
land In the Dead Indian country
I where Edwin C. Brown and wife loht
J their lives in a blizzard last January,
failed to reveal a trace of their bod
ies. Another systematic searc,h on
sections adjoining the two covered
Sunday will be made next Sunday.
The search was under the direc
tion of Prescott and Merrltt, expert
woodsmen, and was systematically or
ganized.
The searchers 2B In number, and
all experienced woodsmen were plac
ed at a distance of 26 feet from each
other as for aa they would reach
across the section. Merritt was sta
tioned on one end, Prescott on the
other and Sheriff Ralph Jennings in
the middle. The start was made by
Sheriff Jennings firing a gun. The
line "counted off" from time to time
to keep the line Intact and proceeded
orderly and thoroughly.
The searchers covered the section
adjoining and the one upon which
the Brown cabin Is located. A par
ticularly careful hunt was made over
the ground where neighbors a mouth
ago found the Browns had tried to
build a fire from magazine leaves.
The search next Sunday will be
made over two sections of land lying
below the Brown cabin and where It
Is thought they would naturally
wander, as It la a sloping country.
The terrain covered Sunday Is
rough and covered with gullies and
high logs and tangled brush. The
snow has melted save In the deep
gullies.

WHO cared in '29? But in 1932 motorists want value. No more
paying fancy prices for oils that form dangerous quantities of
gritty, flinty carbon. , .
And that is just what many of the highest priced oils do! They
deposit layers of coke-like carbon inside your engine when they burn.
Warped valves, knocking, power-stealing pre-ignition; needless wear
as chips grind through bearings; clogged oil lines all these! things
come from hard carbon. Not just occasionally, either. They often
happen. ' ..
Why risk carbon damage? Shell Motor Oil forms no hard
carbon at all!
And Shell guarantees that SHELL MOTOR OIL at 25t per
quart will lubricate your engine as thoroughly and as well as
any oil at any price!
"CLINKERS" SHAMEFUL!
