The Sicilian Earthquake

k,tna once more claims attention of the
world by reason of its latest toll OF VIC
TINS Etna has been snufiing out and
crushing out lives ever since the recorded
history of the world began, yet people
continue to dare it and tempt fate by
smuggling in settlements and villages on
its slopes and within the danger area.
The answer to this is that the soil is re-
markably fertile, the temptation to the
frugal, thrifty peasantry is overpoWer-
ing. and there is in the breast of every
one within the death zone of Etna the
hope that each manifestation of its ac-
tivity is the last. or that if another earth
quake or eruption comes death will claim
others and not us. The home instinct is
so strong in men that they will rebuild
the homes which have been destroyed
where they will probably be destroyed
again Cities crumbled by earthquake,
if not too deeply covered by volcanic de-
bris, rise again, and always with the hope,
so strong that it is belief. that calamity
will not strike in the same place again.
The slopes of Nesuvius and Mount Etna
have been populated. depopulated and re-
populated many times. Reports of the
late or the present earthquake. for the
news indicates a continuance Of shocks
show that its damage is small compared
with that wrought by the Caiabria dis
aster in December 1:Ds, but the results
of the latest shocks are sad enough and
NAV be of black portent. The worst may
not have happened.
