much attention.
The man must have been sixty, but
the brightness of his eye and the buoy

lie to his white hair.
The woman was also the picture of
vivacity, although her age was close
to that of the man.
Everyone on the hill seemed TO en-

of the constabulary found lava flow
and other evidences of volcanic activ-
ity Mt the base of the Ragang noun
tains. Recently an exploring party
climbed the mountains and now an
other volcano is being added to the
maps.
The volcano which the party found
consists of three peaks between which
extends the crater, now quiet. A
fourth peak is thought once to have
stood at one corner of the crater, for
there is evidence that great explo-

Vegetation in the form of huckle-

tufts of short grass and Canadian
thistle extends to near the top of the
peaks. Covering the peaks Is thin
crust Of hardened lava which Is ens-

rock underneath Is soft, spongy and

At innumerable vents an odorless
steam was issuing. There was no
bubbling lava or signs of n recent lava

hot gases. The trees there were

RULES FOR A LONG LIFE
They Are Simple and Can Be Followed
by All, Says q Magazine
Writer.

There Is no panacea that will bring
long life to every user. "What Is one
mans meat Is another mans poi
son. But n few rules are applicable
to everyone, declares writer in the
Worlds Work.
Be moderate In everything. Excess
In eating, drinking, In anything tends
to bring old age.
Be faithful in your exercise and be
sure to choose an exercise that is help
full.
Stand and sit erect and use your
lungs.
Keep your teeth and gums and throat
clean. The mouth is the principal part
Of entry for undesirable immigrant
micro-organisms.
Be careful to maihta'n the bowel
functions. The digestive tract Is
favorite abiding place for hordes Of
marauding bacteria.
Have your body occasionally exam
ined. The physician will take notice
Of what is wrong and will advise you
accordingly. And let him do the
worrying. Fortunately, the exact con-
dition Of the organs of the body can
usually be seen by physicians, even
when they are but slightly Off nor

Be happy. Do no worry; do not al
low yourself to become crouch; do
not "get mad" Remember that psy-
biologists now contend that you

are angry. You are angry because
you clench your hands. So do not
clench them.
Act happy, and you will become so.
Act young, and you will become so.

AIM TO BROADEN
RESERVE SYSTEM
Amendments to Law Proposed to
Bring State Banks Into
Membership.

Washington, April ia renewal
of effort and nationwide scale to
bring state banks into the federal
reserve system is to be made shortly
as part Of a comprehensive program
looking to the further mobilization
of the country's financial resources.
Legislation looking to this end
was reported favorably today to the
senate by Chairman owen of the
banking and currency committee. The
committee not only favors the en-
actment of amendments to the re-
serve act, which failed at the last
session of Congress, but proposes
new ones which, 1t believes. If enact.
ed, would result in removing one of
the chief distractions of state banks
in coming into the system, the restric-
ton against interlocking directorates.
Amendments reported today, by
their failure specifically to mention
interlocking directorates on the part
of state and national banks, will per-
nit, in the opinion Of Senator Owen.
the entry into the system of state
institutions whose directors also may
be directors of national banks.
The proposed amendments also
would allow state banks to exercise
the privileges now accorded them
under state law and would impose
upon them minimum of restric-
tions. Another feature of the amend
ments would permit state banks to
withdraw from the system should
they for any reason desire to do so.
limitations have reached the fed
eral reserve boards recently that an
appreciable number of state institu-
