Nerns. With thousands of feet of
material superimposed above the
rich deposits and with the surface
impoverished by thousands of years
of cultivation it lis incumbent upon
nature to rejuvenate the soil and so
remove the overburden that the rich
stores of mineral wild be available to
mankind For this process the deS-
truction of the area by volcanic ex-
plosions is not only essential, but
has been duly provided for. To TINS
end, nature has, ON the one hand by
gradual submergence, surrounded
and largely covered the volcanic area
by water; while ON the other hand
the internal fires consume the earth
roof until, weakened beyond power
of longer sustaining the combined
pressure, water crevasses form. The
water reaches the internal fires. EX
polsions of enormous intensity ensue
and are continued until the areas
are destroyed.
For two centuries nature has
been preparing human beings for the

De WOLF HOPPER'S FUN.
His Changed Comedy Style as
Bunthorne in "PatienCe."

Playgoers familiar with De Wolf Hop
pers robust comedy method wondered.
some Of them, when 1t was announced that
he would have the part OF the aesthetic
at the Lyric Theatre. how he was going
10 fit into a role which had always been
played in the lightest comedy vein. Mr..
Hopper himself commented day or so
ago on the fact that the public did not
seem TO be too fond OF versatility in an
actor. But whether they are fond OF II or
not. the public seldom expects II, and no
doubt In the present case they thought
Mr.. Hopper would remould Bunthorne into
a full blooded esthete--if such a combine
ton is considered possible.
As a matter OF fact that Is what Bun
thorne U.s. and De Wolf Hopper has chosen
for the portrayal OF the character a definite
style OF restrained light comedy which has
already won for him praise from every
side
The reason" said Mr.. Hopper the other
day, why | play the part differently from
anything have done before is that the
lines give me something definite 10 build
on.
Few people who have not played In
them can realize how little there IL in the
usual musical comedies that Is definitely
prepared for the leading comedian TO do.
He Is expected to work up his part, both in
lines and action, To throw himself into
every breach in the plot and TO devise a
means of buoying up the whole structure.

however, the comedian has no such UNI
