Footprints Found
In Lava Flows

Honolulu, T. H., June 30.-Stories
told by native Hawaiians. of foot
prints in the lava flows on the slopes
of the extinct volcano of Haleakala,
"House of the Sum-" on the island of
Maui, which would indicate that the
island was inhabited centuries ago
when the volcano was still active,
have been verified by X. P. Emory
of the Bishop Museum, who investi-
gated the reports on behalf of the
institution.
Emory, who is assistant ethno-
logist at the museum, originally de-
cided that the prints had been made
by natives fleeing. bewore the last
flow Of lava down Haleakala, when
the lava was still hot and plastic
Further investigation showed that
the prints could not have been made
by persons who had been running, as
the toes were not more deeply i'm
pressed than the heels.
Scientists here are. puzzled over the
prints, which range in size from four
inches long, two inches wide at the
toes and one inch at the heel; to ten
inches long, four inches wide at the
toes and three inches wide at the
heels. The toes in the prints are
natural in size,, as is the curve of the
foot, Emory said.

Plea for Safe Celebration

New York, July "A plea for a
safe celebration of Independence Day
has been made by the Safety Institute
| of America, which at the same time
| issues the warning that if greater
care is not taken this year than in the
past, approximately 13O persons will
be killed and 5000 others injured in
fireworks accidents throughout the
United States. On the Fourth of july.
"The total of persons killed in
Fourth of July celebrations since
these were inaugurated is greater
than the number of men killed on the
American side in the Revolutionary
War;" says the statement of the In
stitute. During the past ID years
alone 1882 persons were killed and
42,O89 injured as result of Fourth
of July accidents from firearms and
fireworks, and these do not include
drownings Or automobile accidents"
While the number of accidents
caused by the use of fireworks and
firearms is being gradually decreased
such products and the growth of the
| community celebration idea, the de-
| crease is more than counteracted by
the community celebration idea, the
decrease is more than counteracted by
the heavy increase in automobile fa-
calities and drownings incidental to
the modern reckless celebration of In
depence Day.
The Institute has issued the follow
ing list Of protective suggestions:
If you must have bonfire, let your
father build it and watch it with you;
better still, don't build bonfires. Scores
of children are burned to death and
millions of dollars of property are lost
each year as the result of bonfires
built in fun.
Ordinary firecrackers are harmless
# used with reason, but they should
never be held in the hand after being
lit because the slightest powder burn
may result in lockjaw and death.
The sparks themselves fro ma fire
toy are not, as rule, dangerous, but
the glowing metal cores constitute a
serious ,hazard,,and have caused ia
talities.
Don't put powder, ammunition for
canes, or cartridges on street car
tracks; this, has caused many fatal
accidents through wrecks, runaways
and pnic mong. passengers.
The most prolific cuse of ourth of
July accidents is the 81 didn't Know 1t

Heavy Taxes
Levied on Visitors

Vienna, June 30.-Following the ex-

Alpine resort provinces of Austria
have begun to levy heavy taxes on
visitors. There is a tax or room rent

Motor cars are taxed heavily for eacn

plainest food and clothing.

Alpine resort regions are as expensive
as any place in the world this season.
Nevertheless, it is virtually impossi-
BILE to secure room at any of them

booked up and small country houses
are unobtainable at any price.

PhOOL Philosophy
BY
Old GU COUegy

The early bird catches the worm
and is often bagged by the hunter
but not all of them have acquired
voters.
Never despise the perspiring boy
behind the soda fountain. He can
give you an extra allowance of ice
cream if he so desires.
The young fellow who marries a
poor girl is fortunate. She will help
him get along in the world.
+, Stand perfectly still when wo-
man throws stone at you. If you
dodge you may get hit.
Don't object to the sarcastic re-
marks your wife makes to you. That
only brings out more.
If you were to call a preacher a
middle man he might vigorously OBJ
ject, and yet that is exactly what
he is when he ties the customary
/ knot.
If your home life is not what it
should be, start reform movement
yourself. The other party may only
be waiting for the dominant voice to
speak.
The approaching blasts of winter
have no terrors for those who do
not dwell upon their advent.
The talkative man is heard by
many people and remembered by few.
1t may be true that this country
needs spiritual awakening, but it's
a certainty that most of US are sound
sleepers.
We will now enjoy few hours of
industrial peace-or at least our i'm
aginations can run that far.
Even the penniless man is FORUM
ate in way. He has no fear of
being bunkoed.
1t is not at all necessary to side
step the fellow with chip on his
shoulder, He'll be careful not to let
you jostle it off.
A swelled head is like an over-in
fated tire. 1t is too insecure for
safety.
There's a reason why fortune
smiles upon some people. They grab
it.
The fellow who wastes his time
seldom has anything else to waste.
Be wary of the young lady who is
sad and dispirited. 1t may be only
a means to an end.
Why grieve because you were not
born with a silver spoon IL your
mouth? 1t might have choked you
to death.
Don't deceive yourself. 1t makes
you an easy mark for others.
The fellow who looks for trouble
generally lodges it when it comes
