Box-MakeS Discovery,

Lieut. Cliff Richter placed his foot
On It small boot backing bench at the
home of Leonard Bartlett, So, of 727
n. Haugh ST., Thursday, where Off
GERS had made a liquor raid in vain.
As a matter of fact the little bench
looked so good to Richter that he de-
cided to look 1t over and build one
himself for shining his shoes at
home.
But. when he picked 1t up and
started to turn it upside down, a
latch dropped open. the top swung up
and there before Richter's eyes were
three half pints of liquor In neat
little compartment.
Bartlett Is charged with operating
a blind tiger. Fred c. Black, IS, Of

Brown, colored, 1912 Talbot Ave, who
also were found in possession of liquor

r Is the japanese earthquake
- a warning Of cataclysms that
viii remould the earth?
Is the map of the world to be
changed. whole continents wiped
out and new continents created in
q second deluge?
Dr. Milton A. Mobiles, geologist
and student Of earthquake and vol
canic phenomena, thinks so
More than a year ago. in a New
York newspaper he predicted a
series Of disasters in a death belt"
he traced through Italy, Dalmatia,
Asia Minor, Persia, India, Japan
and Siberia-the exact spots where
most Of the big earthquakes and
volcanic eruptions OF the year have
occurred!
And now DR.. Mobiles sees these
events-within ten years:
Oceans engulhng al Europe, half
Of Asia. part Of Africa, and part
OF North America.
New Continent
New lands rising to double the
area OF the western hemisphere in
one great American continent and
Joining Australia and New Zealand
In a continent three times their pres
ent size.
Shifting Of the earth on It's axis,
with a new North Pole in Siberia
east Of the Ural Mountains and a
new South Pole in the South Pa
cIfic Ocean.
A new equator with the United
States so close that the all-year
miIdness of Florida wiz be the
whole Nations temperature.

Pacific. making New York, Boston,

New Lands to Emerge
