of the same stature, to have
 worn the same clothing. to have
 used the same household Eten- s1ls and the same implements of warfare that the CliH-dWeller
 and the man of the Valley used.
 That they were practically con-
 temporaries there can be little
 doubt. But what a difference in their ideals and modes of life!
 One autumn day not many
 years since, a hunter, tired in
 the pursuit of an elusive buck
 about thirty nine miles north
 west of Williams, sat himself down upon ledge or rock.
 After he had rested for few minutes, his eyes wandered over the surrounding country. Scrub cedars, dwarfed oaks, the inevitable sage-brush and ages-old lodges of rock greeted him everywhere. A few yards beyond lay the unmistakable
 bed of what had once been stream of water. He arose.
 bent upon retracing his steps to camp, but he had not pro- ceeded fifty yards until he came upon the ruins of what appeared to be a child's play house. Nothing but the walls remained and these were rapid ly toppling to the ground. All around were stones that form eriY had been used in the strrc- ture. There had been at least four rooms to the house, none
 of which however were over eight or nine feet square. The main door, or entrance, was in a perfect state of preservation, and from it's dimensions some idea of the stature of the former inhabitants could be gained. From the ground to the cap stone of the door-a single large rock-measured approx imately four feet and eight in- ches. The width was not quite two feet. Long the hunter re- mained there to examine and marvel at this strange struc- ture, built in such complete har- mony with it's surroundings as to be almost wholly unobserv- able from the south, east and west until the trespasser almost stumbled over it. Yet boldly together with the remnants of several of it's companions it stood there, challenge to us of today to solve it's history.
 Some Sunday when you are ,Io to go, drive out the Ash Fork road until you come to the road that turns to the right at the foot of the first hill. Take that road, known as the Hurst Tank Hill road-and continue until you come to the Sixteen Mile Crossing on Cataract. This crossing will be practically the only really difficult portion of the road that you will encoun- ter, but by careful driving a crossing can be affected. Con- tfnue on the road, always bear ing to the right no matter what | other roads and trails you may | encounter, and when your speedometer shows you have l travelled twenty-one miles from | the crossing, you will be in the immediate vicinity of the pre- historic dwellings. The ruins | of a number of them are to be | found within radius of a mile | from this point. It you are interested in archaeology, take a pick and shovel with you and dig in the ruins. It is doubt full that such implements have ever been used there, and you may be amply rewarded for your trouble.

 cliff dwellers of Northern Ari- zona?
 Who were the prehistoric in habitants of Southern Arizona that irrigated the Salt River Valley long, long before Colum- bus stood an egg on end or even thought of America.
 These questions today em- ploy the minds of anthropo- logists and archeaologists thru out the world.
 To the perpleXities therein involved Western Coconino, Northern Yavapai and Mohave counties can add a problem of their own for further solution.
 Science has about concluded that the Cliff-dweller repre- sents in all probability the old est form of communal life that existed in North America. But, prior to his flight to the cliffs for protection from his stronger adversary, where did the cliff dweller live, and what was the form of his habitation? Is he the forefather of the Salt River Valley irrigationist, or was he an off-shoot of that interesting pre-age? Archeaologists tell us that both men possessed the same household utensils, imple- ments of war, types of art and articles of clothing. Practical ly the only difference between the two was their habitation. The Cliff f-dweller lived in cav erns hewn in unapproacha ble cliffs, while his brother from the lower country has left to posterity unmistakable evil dence of superior civilization in the form of well-built com munity houses, such as that at historic Casa Grande.
 Between these two types of earliest civilization there eX- isted in Western Coconino coun- ty civilization unlike either of the two forms heretofore men, toned. That of the Valley is known to have been of 8 peace able, hard working, industrious nature; while that of the cliffs by nature of it's habitation- suggests tinidity and mere ex- istence in the small compass of it's environment.
 Boldly ensconced upon the high plateau of the country northwest of Williams-not more than forty miles distant contemporaneous with the civil ization of the Salt River Valley and the Clif-dweller, lived a war-like race of men who were not afraid to live in the open, and who, from the evidence they have left behind to pos terity, successfully defended their homes for ages from the of a physically super erior enemy-the forefathers of the modern Indian.
 It may be suggested that this bold warrior was none other than the Indian himself, who ultimately succeeded in driving the Cliff-dweller and the Salt River farmer from their habi- tations. Such, however, was not the case. This bold peo- pie have left the ruins of their former houses to dispute this theory, and from the size of the rooms, the dimensions of the doors and windows, and from other unmistakable evidences we of today know that they were a race of men of compar- small stature. Besides. who has ever known an Indian to build and live in a stone house? In other words, we k2cw this people to have been FORECASTS ERUPTION OF
