Don't dare death valley without a

ing for genuine thrills. That is the
sage advice of j. II. Cook, "The Dean
of the Desert" who has just safely
returned with that well-known desert
car, "The S x Arrow" sent out by
Harold l.. Arnold to investigate the
feasibility Of the Death Valley trip
for motorist travel.
81 have spent 80 years in that
dreaded region" said the dean, "and
know the roads, trails and water
holes so thoroughly that realize the
danger of going into the sand dunes
and rock country without proper
equipment"
That is why Marion Crosse never
came back and many another good man
has never been heard of again. To
give you an idea of how little travelled
that region is, let me say, that for 10
days after leaving Barstow we never
passed an automobile. 1t seems
strange that within 300 miles Of Los

During the past 18 months the U. S.

oughly sign posted most of the main
routes east and west of Death Valley.
The Automobile club has also done
some excellent work recently in the
Silver lake region and in the Ivanpah

The state signs on the floor of
Death Valley has undoubtedly saved
many life.

st is unfortunate that the existing

accurate and complete in showing the

that is the very place, in spite of the

that there is so little travel. Probably
that was the reason why Marion
