great cataclysms. The history of the
first has been lost in mists of time.
But the record of the second has
been handed down to posterity by
the few survivors of the 'Deluge.'

built up at the equator due to con-

PHILADELPHIA-A new volcano

These are the latest prediction
OF DR.. Milton A. Mobiles, geologist
and scientist, whose forecast of a
coming cataclysm which would de-

Africa, Southern Alaska. Northern
Canada. Asia Minor, South and East
Asia. Japan. the Philippines and
East Indies was printed recently.
Since the publication of that story
there have been IS earthquakes in
the areas indicated!
And now DIR. Mobiles further pre-
dictions are being studied with in
terest. For this old Philadelphia
physician is establishing himself as
the foremost forecaster of earth
changes.
FIe hasn't given up his work as
physician. He still keeps on practic-
ing without change. But IN all his
