Eruption of Mount Lassen TefrOri1S
Residents of Hat Creek Valley, Cal

Redding, Cal.-Lassen Peak poured
out another large eruption of ink-black
smoke Sunday night, it was reported
by returning automobile parties late
Monday, who said that rift in the
rain clouds when they were at Viola
had shown billows of smoke ascending
to considerable height.
The volcanic avalanche from the
crater of the peak was diverted in its
ruinous rush into old lava beds and the
lower part of the fertile Hat Creek
valley was temporarily saved from the
threatening food. In spite of the lull
in Lassen's activity, feeling of ter
ror prevailed throughout the danger
zone and more than 100 refugees re-
fused to return to. their homes.
Ranchers took advantage of the
mountains somnolence to return to
their lands and drive their stock off to
the high lands.

the guests arrive man at the door
receives the pence they give, and
writes it down in book. This means

a wedding the host will give each OF

Some blood disorders become deeply
rooted in the glands and tissues, and the
mistake is made Of resorting to drastic
