July II. -A huge concrete pyramid that WIU preaerre records of present-day civlllration (or millions of years, if neoesarr. Is being built among the back hills of tho Arkansas Ozarks by William Hope (Coin) Harwy. wealthy resort hotel owner. On the passageway leading to tho central crypt will be a copper tab let for some archaeologist of the year 121.097. or ' thereabouts, to decipher. It will -read: "When this Is read, go below and find a record of and the cause or tbe death of a former civilization." ; A Friend of Bryan Harrey. who was a close friend and co-worker of the late William Jennings Bryan, and a leader In the free silver movement that Bryan espoused in tho "nineties." believes that some day our civiliza tion most pass away just when, ho doesn't pretend to know, except that It will be a great many years hence. And he wants future gen erations, who poke around in our ruins, to have as full and complete an WILLIAM H. , HARVEY 36 MODERN FYWMI 6UIL0ER. - the site of William H. pyramid, showing how foundation is pre ventions as possible. Hence the pyramid. "Our civilization of today is rich In intricate Inventions and cultural devices, but It can leave little, if anything, in the way of lasting rec ords for tho ages to come," he says. "This pyramid, which I regard as tho greatest undertaking of my life, will preserve records of the. world of the present for tbe greater civil ization of the future, and those na tions and civilizations may have the opportunity to build up a happier world through finding out the mis takes and advantages of the life of our age. "I have decided to erect my pyra mid hero because, geologically, thu Ozarks are among the oldest moun tains in the world. The process of account of our customs and in- erosion has diminished their origi nal height of more than 14.000 feet to less than 1400 feet above sea level. Tbe bard limestone base, which I have effectually protected from the action of ground water. Is as enduring as any substance known, and the bills have already become so worn that It is impossi ble for the pyramid to become burled through erosion of the near by mountains." ; Work Already Iiognd .

CHIEF OP The Poofiac Six won instant ax ceptance first a a quality car and then aa a car at a price made pos sible by tbe gigantic resource and purchasing power at the disposal of a division of General Motors. Entirely disregarding price, the Pontiac Six would be an outstand ing car by the grace of its Fisher body and the smartness of its Duco OaUaaJ SI.

At speeds well over 60 miles an hour, this engine runs as smoothly and silently as at a loafing speed of 25-30 miles an hour and Merc is not the slightest feeling of strain or ' labor in the power plant. The chassis i.iatchcs the power plant in its superior con struction and great reliability. Engineers say it is practically unbreakable.
