OLD CRATERS in

Honolulu, T. H., May. 31.-(By the
Associated Press. THE unusual vol.

to manifest itself in ,eruptIons from

against the walls of the pits, burning
the vegetation that has grown there
in the years since their last activity.
The inner walls of the craters today
were masses of flame.
Quiet 81 Years.
Napau and Panau.-are four and
three miles respectively from the old
crater of MakaopuhiN which yesterday
reused itself from 81 years. of slum-
ber in a spectacular -outburst. Today
the lava flow had broken out, in a
series of molten fountains from the
walls of the crater, nine Of which
were pouring fiery sprays into the old
The activity Of Panau pit is said to
resemble the disturbance of 1919
when stream of lava plunged down
the side of the cone and continued for
a distance Of about three miles to the
sea. 4
The ancient craters of Puuhuiuhu-
lu. and Alea are also showing signs of
activity, according to Prof. Thomas
A.i Jaggar, director of the United
States volcano observatory on the
island of Hawaii.
Makaopuhri, one of series of
eleven dormant pits. has a circum-
ference Of about three miles. The
country surrounding Makaopuhi is
almost untnhabited, but there is q set

| TiranA s Albania Work, ,s.is a dis.
grace in Albanta.SSs OReaWGo is forced
to 1t iS Immediately ranked as be-
longing to. the lowest orders of Al.
banian society. As q result of this
point of view, American teachers as
signed to the American Red Cross
vocational school here had first the
i5sOming from the higher Albanian
families that il they wished to learn
any tradc the idea Of EsPruning the
hammer and the saw must be dis
PEELED from their young minds.
When the boys congregated for
their lessons in the vocations, they all
refused to have anything. Ito do with
toolsj They disdained touching any
thing that bore evidence of work!
They refused to use brooms to sweep
out their dormitories. They look ed
at the chisel and mafet with repug-
nant eyes.
The American teachers met this
puzzling situation in practical way.
They began using the tools them
selves, freely and naturally, and CON-
tinued to- demonstrate the value and
help Of a tool to the workers until
finally the passive resistance Of the
young I Albaniafss was completely
overcome and they cAme to use every
implement IN the shop. !.
. Conditions Change.
Long centuries Of caste had taught
the boys that the real gentlemaNWas
he who lived in idleness.s a, few
months in the school and the age-
long tradition was practically wiped
out. The boys now do all the work,
including the care of their own
rooms and the waiting on the table
of the schools faculty. The minds
Of these youths have Been trans
formed, and constant reference to
the upward struggle Of American cap
tains Of industry who achieved their
successes through work have imbued
each with such spirit Of progress
that the school, located in the midst
Of slovenly, idle population, stands
zeal.
The students are adopting all sorts
of other American characteristics,
They have yells and songs they have
class fights and colors and they, have
developed a school spirit. They have
taken to athletics baseball being the
major sport, followed closely by box
ing. Baseball is supervised by Am
brose B. Kelly of Albany, N. T., an
old college baseball star.
In boxing, their only idea is to
punch. Boxing fans" would be de-
lighted with the exhibition put on by
the Tirana vocational school, 1t is
practically all straight punching
There are no clinches. Each boxer
thinks skill is measured by the rapid
ity and force with which he can land
blows on the other mans face with
out regard to his own protection
Blows are what count to these Al
banian boys and they give and take
them like Spartans. ~, - 81. 3! :,

Washington. May 31.-The homage
Of a people was poured out yesterday
at the shrine erected by a decade of
patient labor to Abraham Lincoln.
Under the thoughtful gaze of his
marble likeness, dim in the shadowy
background OF the cleaning white
temple his countrymen have raised to
him. thousands of Americans were
gathered.
Non great in the councils of the
nation Wsro there. The president to
accept in the nations name, the
memorial read at the river brim. A
former president came gladly to give
accounting of his trust as head of
the commission that saw the great
work to its completion. Senators.
representatives, cabinet officers. ad-
mirals and generals all were there;
but It was not these, lavish as were
their tributes to the great dead who
made the day historic in American
annals. 1t was the swelling tide of
humble people who s.ood for hours

whose memory it enshrines as their

Mr.. Hardings voice thrilled as no
paused to draw attention to the gray
clad veterans and recall that twice
since Lincoln died, men Of the
southern states. sons of such men as
these old warriors, had come in their
strength to fight for the flag to which
their fathers returned after the bitter
sixties.

that the states OF the southland join
sincerely in honoring him and have

fervor of his own great heart in de-
