spectators from the edge of the pit,
and the dust clouds drifted toward the
lava desert.
The coincidence Of the absence of
DR.. Thomas A. Jaggar, noted vol
canologist, who has devoted much of
his life to studying Kilauea's moods,
with the latest eruption, was regarded
by the natives as significant. Pele,
they say, likes DIR. Jaggar, and keeps
Halemaumau quiet as long as he re-
mains at Volcano House, the observa-
tory on the mountain. The eruption,
they declare, Is Pele's sign that she
wishes to come back from Alaska,
where he was sent last April.
Absent i'm Other Eruptions.
DIR. Jaggar was in New York in
1924 when Pele unleashed her VOL
cano, and at the last previous out
break, In 1925, was in the Orient.
Several times in recent years Hale
maumau has shot out streams of
molten rock. once sending forth a flow
which carried whole forests on it's
back. igniting them and holding them
ike great torches as it rolled toward
the sea.
The chief eruptions in the last 10
years took place in 1917, 1919 and

CHANGE IN NUMBERS
URGED TO AID STREET
Many Columbia Heights Residents
Oppose Remaining Spring Place
to Avoid Confusion.

While many residents of Columbia
Heights are opposing the suggestion
to rename Spring place in order to
avoid confusion with the nearby
street known as Spring road, most
OF them are recommending that the
house numbers on Spring place be
changed from Sixteen hundred" to
Fifteen hundred" it is said by Alton
Il. Carly, president of the Columbia
Heights Citizens Association.
District government officials ap-
pealed to that association to assist
them in ascertaining the sentiment of
the residents of the community before
the Spring place name was changed.
In accordance with that appeal the
association sent out a QUESTIONABLE
to be filled out by residents
All the questionnaires have not yet
been returned. bu. those received by
the association oppose the name
change. It Is suggested by many,
however. that. since Spring place lies
just east of Sixteenth street, the house
numbers should be '..fifteen hundred"
instead of sixteen hundred. !" thereby
tending to avoid confusion with the
other street bearing d similar name.
When all the questionnaires are re-
turned the association win draw Its
formal recomme ndation for presenta-
ton to the District Commissioners.
