crust resulting In earthquakes ana

Professor See says:
"If we admit on the basis or expert
mental evidence that water can pene-
trate thin layers OF granite. the ques'
tion naturally arises: Can II also

The duid which passed through the
upper layer OF granite would therefore

ting duid pressure from above, and at
length the whole layer would be sat

steady leakage which would give rise

stresses due to slow accumulation OF

beneath the crust, and this would give
rise to earthquakes and mountain

WHO ARE THE MOST
POPULAR PEOPLE IN
HENDERSON COUNTY?


With the score standing a tie,
one to one, Waynesville and the
Planets were forced to call it off
on account of darkness. The re-
ports read that this was the best
game ever played by either team.
In fact it was a royal pitchers S
battle from start to finish, Crouch
the Planets twirler allowing one
more hit thanClark, the Waynes-
vile pitcher.
The game was marked with
many sensational plays in the
field, notwithstanding the fact
Waynesville had four errors to
her credit. Hendersonville play
ed an errorless game and the
chances are that if she could have
gotten one or two more hits,
there would have been a different
tale to tell. The local fans are
satisfied of one fact, that Hen
dersonville has got the best team
in the league and that she will
win the majority of the games
with the present pennant leaders.
Some of the fans are so sure of
this fact that they have arranged
their plans to visit Waynesville
this afternoon for the last game
! there this week. Waynesville
comes to Hendersonville for the
remaining three games of the
week. Waynesville is the only
team that there was any doubt
about in the minds of the fans
that Hendersonville couIdn't
beat. The games in this city will
create more interest than any in
the past.
