Motor Trail Being Blazed Into Southern Utah Wonderland Top Typical view of too forest road constructed last year from Cedar to Midway, opening np another southern Utah wonderland to the automobile.

It has a subterranean outlet. Top (right) On the new roadway constructed this year from Midway to Navajo lake. Bottom (left) On the branch road from Midway to the Breaks, constructed this year. Bottom (right) Probably the first . picture ever reproduced in print of Strawberry point, an area resembling Cedar Breaks, and just a few miles from Navajo lake. This picture was taken recently by Batulall L. Jones of Cedar City, and so far as known Is the first taken of that region, which Is as yet accessible only with difficulty.. The other photographs shown are also by Mr. Jones. What ia Balanced Gasoline? . ? THE user vents a combination of many qualities ia tbe fad be feeds his motor.
