That's what scientists are doing in temporarily discarding the chro- nologies of Indians, Mound Builders and even the Aztecs of old Mexico in their efforts to establish, if possible, pre-glacial usage of a rock image un- earthed by W. L. Chalmers near Grand Lake, high in the Colorado Rockies. He found the 66-pound stone six feet below the surface while en- larging an irrigation reservoir on his homestead. Mammoth animals outlined in the stone of blue granite are contempor- aneovs with the Cro-Magnon period. The flat nose is generally asso- ciated with a race preceding the Az- tecs, according to J. Allard Jeancon, 'curator of the Colorado Hisforical and Natural History society and at one time special archaeologist for the Bureau of American Ethnology at Washington. "If this stone can be proven gen- uine it is the biggest find in all an- thropological research and antedates anythinz on the American Contin- ent going to establish the remote an- tiquity of man," continued Mr. Jean: con. "I have never seen such remark- able outlines of dinosaurs and mas- todons." The rock image represents early man sitting and holding a tablet with hands that have but three fingers. On the tablet are hieroglyphics which, in a measure, resemble signs of the Aztecs, Utes and Mormons. If the rock image is genuine, then all the others are copied from the symbols made by pre-glacial man; if not, then the imitation is unusually compelling. Who knows? Scientist in New York, Washington and Santa Fe are trying to decipher these characters, accord- ing to Mr. Chalmers. The image through changes in the consistency of the rock has become harder than steel. Geologists who have seen the stone say it would be impossible to make these impressions today by rubbing with flint imple: ments. It is fourteen inches high, nine inches across the tablet and about twelve inches through to the back. Glaciers were still active in cutting down the Rockies as recently as a few thousands years ago, according to T. M. Van Tuyl, professor of ge- ology at the Colorado School of Mines. He has not seen the image, but has found alternate dark and light color- ed banded rocks in the Denver Moun- tain Parks near to where the stone was found which he believes date back to the Archean period, close to the creation of the world. This in- dicates the numerous uplifts in the Rockies, several times nearly worn away, and the contention of certain geologists that the stone may date back thousands, if not millions of years. In the meantime Mr. Chalmers is receiving requests from museums and research societies for the privilege of taking plaster cast impressions to study the rock image under a strong glass, or to borrow the freak stone. GENERAL TIRE G0. REPORTS BIG YEAR Brightest Star in Rubber Firmament--Claim The General Tire and Rubber com- pany which was the brightest star in the rubber firmament at annual meet- ing time a year ago, has repeated in 1922, At the annual meting just held at Akron, Ohio, the balance sheet and report cf General Manager O'Neil showed a condition rather unusual among rubber companies at this time, because of the "hard sledding" they have had since the collapse of the post-war boom. For 1922, General shows earnings of $1,021, 739 on a sales volume of $7, 600,000. Sales were about $6,000,000 for 1921, so that increase in dollars means a very substantial increase in unit sales, the difference to be ac- counted for by the reductions in prices that have been announced from time to time through the year. In 1922 the Company's surplus was built up from $200,000 to $1.21.739. "Two years ago" said General Man- ager O'Neil in his report, "we had to write off what were really losses due to the purchase of high priced ma- terial, on which prices declined after we had made our contracts. All such materials have been used up, long ago. Despite the fact that crude rubber and cotton have recently more than doubled, we are well coverel for the advances, though we cannot 'write on' profits we will make because of our buying, to compensate for our 'writing off' losses due to buying in the flurry. Remarkable Expansion Our business has expanded remark- ably in the past year, and our faith in what is before us is shown by the fact that we are now building three fac- tory additions that will enable us to practically double our output in a month or two." The General Tire and Rubber Com- pany is known as the one company which did not fail to pay a single div- idend on both common and preferred stock, since the formation of the com- pany in 1916. The balance sheet shows that quick assets are sixteen times as large as fixed investment-- a new application of the "sixteen to one" phrase. MILITARY BURIAL FOR SGT. ARTHUR W. AUSTIN Military burial was given Sergt. Arthur William Austin, of the United States Marine Corps, at his home in Pleasanton, Kansas, Thursday of this week. Sergt. Austin died Sunday, Jan- uary 7, a victim of lobar pneumonia. Mrs. Austin, who is remembered in this vicinity as Miss Vida Ambrose, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. E. Am- brose, accompanied the remains to Fleasanton. Sergeant Austin was taken ill last October with a stomach affection and was removed to the Great Lakes hospi- tal from his post at Tulsa, Okla. He regained his health rapidly and was able to spend the holidays with his family at Evanston. Early last week he contracted a severe cold, which al- most immediately developed into the fatal pneumonia. Sergeant Austin served three en- listments in the Marines, and was in foreign waters almost continuously during the World war. He is sur- vived by his widow and a small daughter.
