part OF the sky. The critical time
seems to be nearly five hours after
the moon has passed the meridian.
and then again twelve hours later.
Earthquakes occur at other times
also. but in fewer numbers.
The particular manner in which
the moon sets Off the San Jacinto
fault earthquakes indicated that
the average earthquake IN that re-
gion originates on 1ome part of the
fault which has no great strength
to resist earthquake forces-prob-
ably in the most part at a relative
w shallow depth-and that the
stronger shocks originate at a
greater depth where pressure and
heat heals the earthquake break
or fault in the time between big
shocks. SO that Ii can resist greater
forces before 1t yields and causes
another earthquake"

FRANCE RUNS TRUE TO TYPE

France has not been an agreeable
neighbor to the United States and
the rest of the World since the close
of the World War, and it is not sur
prising that France Immediately be-
gan juggling with President Hoov-
er's debt offer. While practically the
whole World agreed on a plan, the
French continued to hold out for
their pound of flesh.
There are a lot of people around
Washington right now who predict
the possibility of another war be-
fore many years. France is today
the most militaristic Government in
the World.
But of course, America mustn't
forget Lafayette, who suffered a
great deal for our country, but who
suffered a great deal more after
wards as a political prisoner in
France.

Few flowers make so lavish a
show for so small an effort in grow
ing them as irises. If planted in a
border, irises should be spaced so
they can develop into clumps
strong enough to carry to 10
stalks of bloom. Do not let plants
surrounding them grow over them
after their Towering season. Shade
over the ills rhizomes prevents the
proper ripening of the plant and so
curtails the bloom the next year
The flower buds for the next season
are formed in late summersor early
autumn and it is best to divide and
transplant either before or after
this time.
