Varieties of fish hitherto unknown

The columns of lava burrowed
deeper into the ocean than man had
been able to penetrate and thousands
of fish of strange and fantastic shape
and color were killed and washed up
on the beach by the tidal wave lcaus-
ed by the lava flow.
Among them were found six var
ieties hitherto unknown to science
because their habitat was presuma-
bly, lower in the water than science
had been able to observe.

Universalist
Church Enlarged
and Beautifed.

The work of remodeling the Uni
versalist church. which has been
going on for the past few months
is practically completed and on
Sunday the auditorium of the
church will he opened for services
for the first time since the summer
vacation
So great have been the changes
that it will be practically like com
ing back to Il now church All bare
ness and ugliness of line has been
eliminated and the interior of the
cdfice is wonderfully artistic in
every detail The seating capacity
has been more than doubled by the
tearing out of rooms in the front of
the church on both the lOfer and
upper floors and the Introduction of
balcony. Together with the new
Mabel Keyes Averill parlors, com
pleted few months ago, the church
plant. with all its conveniences is
one of the best in the city.
This enlargement of seating ca
pacity and other Improvements have
not been made without reason.
Since the beginning, three years ago,
of the pastorate of Rev. Charles A.
Knickerbocker, the present pastor,
there has been a steady and whole
some growth in all departments of
the church. some Of them having
trebIed and even quadrupled in
membership. Last year, almost
every Sunday. chairs would have 10
be brought into the audience room
to accommodate the church goers
and this fact made it plain That
more seats were necessary to take
care of the increased congregations.
The work of making the plans for
remodelng was put into the hands
of Horace True Macy, architect, of
this CITY. and the result is heaut-

on record" DIR. Jordan said when he
while he was attending the sessions
of the Pan Pacific Educational Con-
ference.
The designations given to the six
species by DR.. Jordan are:
Loa Excelsa, species of kihikihi
or butterfly fish, strikingly banded in
yellow and black.
Vesposus Egregius, so designated
because of its resemblance to a
waSp's nest
Rhyacanthias Carlsmithi. named
for Carl A. Carlsmith, of Hilo, who
sent many of the species to DR.. Jor-
dan. 1t is deep rose red in color
Rhechias Armiger, a conger eel
with hooks on its snout resembling
blackberry thorns and is solid dull
black in color.
Nyctimaster Reinhardt. named for
the Hilo resident who discovered it.
1t is small black lantern fish, SO
designated because of the mapy lu-
minous glands behind the eye and
along its sides which give the I'M
preston of phosphorescence. 1t is
a, solid dull black in color.
Peristedion Engyceros or alligator
fish of a brilliant scarlet hue which
rs characterized by large bony plates
of armor.
Each of the six is a deep water
hsh. All live in water of more than
loo feet in depth and some as deep
as 600 feet. Nothing except such a
cataclysm of nature as the Alika
flow could have brought them to the
surface, DR.. Jordan said. Rhyacan-
thias Carlsmithi ranged at least
1000 feet below the oceans surface,
he added.
Dr.. Jordan has sent to the
Smithsonian Institute in Washing
ton, ID. G.. a paper detailing the re-
suits of the investigation and the
new classifications.

Big Year at COlby--Chapel
Address by Pres. Roberts

A total of 1S9 new students. with
the registration still incomplete, is the
record set at Colby college on Thurs
day, Never before in its more thar
100 years of existence has the collcge
received a larger entcring class. One
hundred and twentl eight of these new
students are in the mems division and
81 in the womene division. Nine Of
the men are transferred from other in =
situations.
The total registration ofthc college
is not yet available and will not be for
several days or until all upper class
. men have returned. but the prospect
seems to be that the first time N is
history the 500 mark will be reached.
First chapel came yesterday and aft
err all had gathered in the building
President Roberts gave an inspiring
address that we hope all entering men
will take to heart. The address in sub
stance was as follows:
Here at Colby everybody is his
brothers keeper. In small college
family like ours responsibility for the
conduct and character of others can
not he avoided. The kind of fresh
man class we have this year depends
in no small degree upon the example
and Influence of the three upper
classes.
Let me urge YOU new students not
to form any new bad habits until aft
err the Christmas vacation. BY then
the chances are you will put it off un-
til next year.
In these hard times the eXtravaganI
use of money by college students is
altogether wrong Here>at Colby this
coming year let us try to find plea sure
In the things that cost but little. Lei
rs tighten all we can the burden on
the home people. Keep cash account
Know where your money goes. You
owe that much to those who are pro-
viding you with financial assistance.
You first-year students ought to put
forth your best efforts these next few
weeks. The impression YOU make upon
voud instructors the first month OF
your college course may be of such
sort as to stand you in good stead
all through college. A. good start wins
the race.
II you wish to have a good time GO
