The Proposition.

The Proposition.
The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, one of the leading Scien-
flhc institutions of the world, has de-
termined to establish, somewhere. a sta
ton to keep a continuous record of.
earth movements, and to compile data
and do research work in connection
with such movements. The object of
such work is the discovery of laws
governing. and causes producing earth
quakes and lava eruptions; with a view
to ultimately being able to predict
earthquakes and volcanic outbreaks and
thereby minimize their destruetiveness
Furthermore, in the light of the results
of earth study, such an engineering
school as the Massachusetts Institute
IS well equipped to investigate what
forms of construction of houses.

cidents A circular was issued in
March, 1909, outlining the project, sign

sor of Geology, the last two being the

"The purpose of the science of Geo
physics is to record with instruments
all the physical and chemical processes
going on in the earth Recent disasters
such as Messina and San Francisco have
shown how defective, for humane and
practical purposes, our knowledge of
these processes is. The study of near
and distant earthquakes, considering
the earth as a whole, can be conducted
as well at one place as at another

however. to secure a volcanic site IN
order TO observe the local activities of
a particular volcano. as well as the
waves which pass through the earth
from distant earthquakes. Professor
Jaggar has. for some time past. been
investigating and considering this sub
iect He has visited the scenes Of the
volcano and earthquake disturbances in
Martinique, Italy. St. Vincent and
Alaska. In April. 1909 he visited the
volcano of KiIauea. and then went TO
Japan where he visited the volcanoes
Tarumai and. Asama in eruption, and
also studied the remarkable stations
and instruments of the Imperial Earth
quake Investigation Committee OF
Japan.
Kilauea is Preferred.
"After mature deliberation Prcfes-
scr Jaggar IS Of the unqualified opinion
that Kilauea affords the best point for
the location Of the proposed observa-
tory among those places in the world
which have come 70 his knowledge, fer
the following reasons:

tions are more explosive and an OBJ

HOW TO LIVE FOREVER.

To show that he is not stealing the
thunder of the Shakers, who do not
believe in marriage, President harry
Gaze of the Live Forever club of Bos-
ton has issued an edict that the only
wav TO be immortal is to get married.
"Prexy" Gaze did not always take lhis
view of life here and hereafter, but al
fer scanning the situation Thoroughly
and incidentally falling in love with MS
pretty stenographer, he felt entitled 10
second look-another Gaze, as IL were.
He thereupon married the key manlpu-
lator and promulgated new doctrine
basing eternal existence on the I'M
mediate contraction of marriage. Bach
aIors and old maids were declared ana
themas and fit only to be cast into
outer darkness. BY carefully studying
the rules and regulations or the 1--we
Foreverites, with these material modln-
cations, the president declares lhdt
there is no excuse for shuffling Off THIS
mortal coil at any time which ante
dates the millennium.
Possibly there are mean spirits VINO
will argue that Professor Gaze means
that after a man is married the usual
span of human life will seem like ter
restrial eternity, and thus tecnnlcaily
fulfill the prophecy of the Live ForeVer
cult. others, still meaner, may con-
tend that the surest way to shorten me-
or at least to long for its cessation
"here and now" as John Emerson ROD
erts phrases it, is to annex Wlre'
Rut these are extreme views. Tnere is
a germ of truth in the appendix TO the
creed of the Gazers Every man VINO
gets married may not live forever, but
it is the good old orthodox and emil
nently proper way to live While he does
live. and if he lives that way to the
end Of his earthly chapter he has
fair chance of living forever under
equally fortunate conditions in the
next volume of his life story

WHEN AIR FLIGHT is PERFECT

What is to be the problem before

almost defenseless race?
These remarks contemplate fly
