of the origins of these world shaking earthquakes has indicated sub oceanic sites of geological activity and posit- ions where the hydrographer may ex- pect to find unusual depths.
 Seismometry is therefore not merely an academic study increasing our knowledge of the nature of the inter- for of the planet on which we live, but 1t is one of immediate practical im- portance to all who have financial in- terests in earthquake-shaken countries. Insurance companies may require an inspection of an electric installation be- fore takingup risks against fire: but hitherto I am not aware that when in- surfing against earthquakes they de- mand any report upon construction. They defend themselves against tho acts of God; but yet policies are fre- quently not sufficiently comprehensive to guard against the acts of nature. The British government is fairly lib- eral In the support 1t gives to those who study the oceans, the atmosphere, and the stars, but 1t does not see its way to assist practical investigation about the earth itself. The result is that year in and year out the British rate payer pays for the rebuilding or repair of government buildings, while the investor accepts risks rather than safe investments. K

entertainments. reservoirs, etc. Inas- much as the new types of structures have withstood violent earth shakings while ordinary types in the neighbor- hood have failed, it can be confidently stated that much has already been ac- complished to minimize the loss of life and property.
 AS a side issue to this work 1t may be mentioned that the application of seismometr,' to the working of rail- ways, particularly in Japan. has led to the localization of faults on lines ana alternations in the balancing of loco motives. The result of the latter has been to decrease the consumption of fuel. Of late years instruments have been devised to record earthouake mo- ton which cannot be felt, with the re- suit that a person living in any one part of the world can record and ob- tain definite information about large earthquakes originating even as far off as his antipodes. These records of the unfelt movements of earthquakes indicate the time. position and. what Is of more importance. also the cause of certain cable Interruptions. The practical importance of this latter in- formation, especially to communities who may by cable failures be suddenly isolated from the rest of the world, Is evident.
 On at least one occasion the failure of cables connecting the Australian colonies with Europe was regarded as an operation of war, with the result that military and naval reserves were called out. and until 1t became known that the Interruptions had been caused by a submarine disturbance off the coast of Java a certain anxiety prevail ed. A recent illustration of the rela- tionship betwee nearthquakes and deep sea communications occurred on January 31 of this year. when an earth quake off the coast of Columbia result ed in the interruption of no fewer than eight cables. Observations now being carried out in England and oth- or countries are indicating sub-oceanic districts which should be avoided by the cable engineer.
 The many occasions that earthquake records have furnished definite infor- nation respecting disasters which have taken place in distant countries. cor recting and extending telegraphic re- ports relating to the same. is another indication of the practical utility of seismic Observations. Seismograms have frequently apprised us of sea waves and violent earthquakes in dis tricts from which 1t has been impos- sible to receive telegrams, while the abs sence of such records has frequently indicated that information in newspa- pers has been without foundation or at least exaggerated.

My dear Mrs. Jones:

wy Oedr mrS. Jones:
 Enclosed find the minutes of Sophie Bibb Chapter U. D. c.
 The first fall meeting of the Chapter was held on October 3. at the home of the President. Mrs. l.. B. Whitfield The afternoon was given strictly to the transaction of business details.
 The meeting was opened with the Lords Prayer repeated in concert.
 Following the reading of the min utes reports were given. It was stated that Shiloh monument is Tn need of more funds. so it was moved and sec onded that Sophie Bibb respond to this last call and increase the liberal amount already contributed.
 A committee composed of the fol- lowing ladies. Miss Cozart, Miss An drews. Mrs. McCombs. Mrs. Buchanan. Mrs. Crenshaw. Miss Tennille and Mrs. Dawson. was appointed to visit the schools of the city and endeavor to have them adopt Mrs. Ockenden's words to Dixie and sing them.
 While in the North this summer the President. Mrs. Whitfield. had a num- ber of requests for coples of Mrs Ock- enden's Dixie. All who saw them were delighted with tne words. A prima donna, who was stopping at the same hotel with Mrs. Whitfield, was asking one day for some Southern songs, Mrs. Whitfield gave her a copy of the New Dixie" ana she was so pleased with 1t that she announced her intention of singing it on her tour in the South this winter. A letter from Mrs. Ockenden was read expressing thanks and her deep appreciation of the success with which her Dixie has met. She also stated that she had re- gently moved into a new home which she christened Dixie"
 Arrangements were made for the placing on sale at the State Fair a "Simplex Form of Music" the agency of which has been secured by the So- phie Bibb Chapter. Instead of the mu- sical characters. the letters of the al phabet are used. making 1t possible for any one to learn to play without the expenditure of much t,me and labor. This easy form of music which is meeting with marked success all over the country. will be on display at the Jesse French Piano Co. exhibit. It
