in the various sections or to the
various tribesmen. Many of the
writings have been interpreted by
tribal descendants, but for the great
er part their meaning will ever re-
main mystery.
Nine miles south of Phoenix, at the
foot of the Salt River Valley range,
are to be found numbers of the pic
ture rocks and they are among the.
best preserved in the entire state.
More than a hundred different char
acters are included in these writings,
which cover an area of about two
acres.
Tucson also has it's picture rocks,
located just a short distance from
the city. The rocks there\ are more
numerous than those south of Phoe-
nix, but for the greater part the
characters are not so clearly defined.
Similarity of the writings in these
two districts has led to the belief
that they were written by the same
tribesmen.
Further south, near the interna-
tional boundary line, still other pic
ture rocks are to be found while the
northern sections of the state also
have their relics.

the greatest work the Automobile

flagship of Christopher Columbus when
he discovered America in 1892, is on dis
play at the official exhibit of the Repub.
lie of Haiti at the Sesqui. Centennial In

The anchor. which is in an excellent

of the eventful Christmas Eve of 1892
when the tiny flagship was wrecked off

thrown up on the shores of the island
and for centuries remained buried in the
