With view OF learning, if possible,
the cause OF eruptions in Lassen Peak,
the only active volcano i'll the United
States, located about so miles east OF
Red Bluff, Cal, DR.. ]. S. Diller, OF the
United States Geological Survey, re-
Gently spent several months at the era
ter OF the volcano.
In the SO years that mark DR.. Dill
ler's connection with the Geological
Survey he has spent some time every
summer, excepting those OF 1898 and
1920, in California investigating the
Lassen Peak eruptions. He assembled
to the peak OF the mountain, at an al
titude of 10250 feet, in 1888, the first
wear he became identified with the
Geological Survey, and last summer,
although II years old, repeated the as
cent, with about as much ease as IN
1888. he says.
Lassen Peak is not sufficiently near
any populated center to cause its erup-
tons to be considered dangerous; on
the contrary this active volcano IS
probably considered to be a tourist as
set by the state of California. How
ever, the study OF the phenomenon IS
deemed a matter of scientific import
ance since Lassen is one OF the system
or chain of huge volcanic peaks Shas-
ia. Hood, Baker, Rainier and others
which may or may not follow the ex-
ample of Lassen Peak and break forth
into activity. While these big volcanic
cones are generally considered extinct
