Taal has been known as a bad" vol
cano since the beginnings Of recorded
time in native annals, and Its erup-
tions have been noted in the Spanish
history Of the Philippines. The recent
eruption is the first one Of Importance
since the Americans took possession of
the island. In the words Of one OBJ

he has made n new effort 70 free him

much of the work OF man In the vicin-

one of the four towns and ten villages
destroyed, has had an especially hard
struggle for existence. II was so much
OF an insurgent town that the Span
iards burned It; then the Americans
partly burned It, and now the volcano
has wiped out what was left"
In 1854 occurred a famous eruption
Of Taal. described by Spanish chroni-
cler. writing thirty-slx years after the
event. as having caused the destruc-
tion OF the towns OF Taai, Tanauan,
sala and Lipa. 'People in Manila
dined with lighted candles at midday
and walked about the streets con-
founded and thunderstruck. clamoring
for confession during the eight days
that the calamity was visible" The
author adds that "the smell OF sui
phur and fire lasted six months after
the event and was followed by malig-
nant fever. 20 which half the inhabit-
ants OF the province fell victims. More
over, the lake waters threw up dead
alligators and FISH. including sharks"
As has been written, many Ameri-
cans have visited Taal, in some cases
to the endangering OF their lives. on
one occasion when a party Of distin-
gulshed visitors were viewing the era
ter the volcano decided TO misbehave.
The eruption placed the party In great
peril, but fortunately none OF them was
killed or injured. One OF the members
OF the exploring expedition was Mrs

commanding the American troops In
the Philippines.

WHAT YEAR Is THIS?

Most of us would suppose that one
thing that we knew perfectly well was
what year this Is. Not everybody In
the world or even In this country Of
ours would admit that 10 say this is the
year 1911 IL entirely correct This Is
by the Byzantine methods the year
74lS. According to the Julian calendar
II is the year 6624. In the Jewish era
II will be until the 22d OF September
the year b672. The ancient Romans
would have figured II TO be the year
26s4. the ancient Greeks the year 26s7
or the third year OF the six hundred
and seventy-second olympiad. The
Mohammedan considers that the year
1929 began on Jan. 2. while the Japa-
nese calls II the year 2571 and the Chi
nese the year 1909. At Washington II
Is still reckoned as the one hundred
and thirty-fifth year Of American inGe-
pendence. and as such all Official proc
nouncementa are dated.
