THE SEARCHLIGHT
Bricks From Lava.

Some progressive Americans have
formed a company which is to erect a.
brick plant near enough to an active
volcano in Hawaii to utilize the hot
lava in the manufacture of brick. The
lava deposits in the Hawaiian Islands
have been used for building purposes
for number of years. but as they
break easily it is difficult to cut them
into the desired shapes. 1t is proposed
to construct a plant to which a sup
ply of hot lava from the pit of the vol
cano can be brought in by an endless
chain Of buckets. The hot lava can be
poured into. brick forms. thus taking
the size and shape desired.

this might seem rather tame sort of

not go further get lot of recreation
out of it. 1t is a genuine relief to
come home from work, take a swim.
put on your camp duds and go fishing
A number Of people do that within
the limits of Greater New York. Along
the western shore of the sound there
are a number of tiny islands. Some
of them are merely Jumps of rock,
while others have bushes. and a few
scrubby trees upon them. There are
about score that are big enough to
support a camp, and most of these are
occupied every summer.
Near Washington there is a fine camp
ing ground along the Virginia shore
of the Potomac. Here a steep wooded
hill commands the water. For a CEN
tury quarries have been worked along
the foot of this slope. and have left
a number of little amphitheaters with
level floors The broken rocks have
and there is plenty of shade.
These places are crowded with tents
every summer. At night long strings
of electric lights and Japanese lanterns
are reflected in the river, canoes ply up
and down and the music of mandolins
floats over the water. There are house.
boats that sell refreshments and even
have little dance floors. It is quite a
tent colony and one that grows in popu-
lation every season.

was too late to 60 back after
him. He had gone to bed late

The fire spread rapidly and

TUESDAY CLUB WANTS
HELP ON LIBRARY

The last business meeting of
the Tuesday club was held Tues
day evening. They wild have a
social session soon and then ad-
journ until fall. At the meeting
it was decided to ask for a small
u subscription from the
business men to help meet the
expenses Of the library. The
members Of the club have started
the library, furnished the room
and paid all rent and running
expenses since it was opened two
years ago and now feel that
they would like little assist
ance. j.i|11lIniIAl
1t is very necessary that more
childrenIs books should be plac-
ed in the library. Children IN
the third, fourth ami fifth grad
es like to read and most Of the
books are too old for them and
they have read all that are in
the library. These books will be
purchased by the club unless
some one makes a dQnation.
Another matter taken up by
the club was old land marks.
Washburm is the nearest town to-
the place where the Lewis and
Clark spent a winter in the early
klays and a suitable mark will be
placed there by; the Tuesday
club. In the near future all
the members and their friends
intend to have a picnic out there
and later make plans for a. land
