RIVER OF LAVA |S FLOWING INTO SEA
Waters Boil For Half Mile As Molten Rock From
 Volcano Reaches Ocean
By Assocsz,ed Press

Milo, T. H., october "A stream Of lava 1000 feet wide is flowing into the sea at the rate of from 20 to 90 miles an hour from the crater of volcano Mauna Loa, which first threw forth lava Sat urday. The stream of lava is now vir tual river from 20 to 90 feet high Where the lava flows into the sea the waters are boiling for half mile and are strewn with dead fish.
 The sides of the flow are banked up by cooled lava, and red hot bouuders carried in the stream explode when they hit the water Property damage resulting from the activity of Mauna Loa has not been large, although some forests and few houses have been destroyed. The lava flow is mostly through a barren country covered by the flows from the crater.
 Near the source of the flow the volcano remains normal and is seemingly unaf- fected, although great clouds of steam can be seen coming from the peak.
 Volcano Kilauea, on an adjacent peak, remains unaffected by Mauna Loa's ac- tivity. Thousands of people are going from Milo and other points on the island to witness the flow, which is visible from the sea to a newly made crater 20 miles up the mountain.

THE HOUSEHOLD
THE SUBJECT TABOO

Every woman knows it-yet how many
 heed it-that the subject on which she
 should not base her social light talk
 are servants and children. You know what bore the woman is who is sort of talking card index of the domestics she has employed. But she is no less tire some than the woman who bases all her repartoire on the clever sayings of her children
 So the eager young mother keen to let others know of the wonders of her own children and of her responsibility in bringing them up, rnds herself tongue-tied by the restrictions of eti-
 quette. That is not enough apparently.
 ar-famed child specialist adds still
 another curb. For according to him, atwere better if even among themselves
 mothers did not spend so much time
 on the shop talk of child raising. 1 'Dr. Jones, the big specialist says
 one mother to another, as one knits
 baby sweater and another darns in- 1 finitisima socks, told by Cousin Pris- 1 cilla to give her baby baked potatoes three times a day. It was really quite dreadful. You know they have all kinds of money and troup of servants and you can imagine the fuss there was in the kitchen between the nurse and the cook when she tried to get those baked psota- toes for breakfast. So of course they couldn't manage, but doing your own work as you do, you could do as you please. Why don't you try it? l always i felt that if Priscilla had been able to insist on those baked potatoes they wouldn't have had all that trouble, the adenoids and other things"
 And the listening mother, having heard of the specialist in question who may or
 may not actually have prescribed baked potatoes three times a day, but who cer- tainly never prescribed them for any and every child, goes home and starts the baked potato diet for her own youngster.
 And before many days have passed 1t is current that the great Dr. Jones has
 prescribed baked potatoes three times
 day.
 And this mother assures that mother
 that scraped apple is just as good as orange juice. and another one tells the
 other that "all the best specialists in
 the vest are giving babies vegetables
 and things younger than they used to-
 and just because one mother was ad-
 vised by her doctor to give her baby steralized milk one July her neighbor
 starts giving her baby who is quite diff
 ferent in physical makeup steralized
 milk in January. Her own doctor had prescribed raw milk in the formula, but
 the mother always has admired her neigh bors children, even to the point of buy ing her childrens clothes at the same speciality house, that it is an easy matter to substitute the boiled milk for the raw.
 So perhaps it is no wonder that baby doctors know little synical sometimes. and that in their more irritable moments they feed convinced that in their spe- ciaity not the hardest thing they have to do is to diagnose the maladies ana prescribe for the youngsters who are brought to them.
