EARTH DANCES
TO HURRICANE.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2.-Vibra-
tions set up by the recent hurri-
cane passing along the Atlantic
coast were so strong in Philadel-
phia that they made it impossible
to interpret the record Of what
was apparently violent earth
quake on Seismographs of the
Franklin Institute at about $50
p. m. on September 10.
The earthquake detectors make
their record by a moving spot of
light on a drum covered with
Photographic paper. Minute earth
tremors, known as "microseisms,"
are highly magnified and caused
the spot to move back and forth,
producing a wiggling line when
the paper is developed.
The record of a distant quake
produces a series of wiggles, some
small, others large, and It's dis
lance is determined by accurately
measuring the time between the
different phases.
MicroSeiSmS, n m e ly, little
earthquakes, are registered almost
continually on seismographs, but
those registered on the afternoon
of September 18 we're far bigger
than had ever been seen before
at the Franklin Institute. The rec
ords of the evening showed micro
seismiSm even more violent. They
actually showed the dance of the
earth to the music of the hur-
ricane."

ST. PAUL CLUB NOTES
SAINT PAUL SOCIETY
By Estyr Bradley

January has been a very dull
month as far as parties and places
to go were concerned, but SEEM
ingly February is going to make
up for what January lacked. The
first dance will be the big Pre-
Lenten Dance given Monday, Feb
ruary 10, by the Cameo Social
Club at the Halle @. Brown Com
munity House, featuring Rock
CAM and his Cotton Club Band;
on February IL, the Inter- ollegi-
ate Club are giving dancing par
ty at the Sterling Club with Lord
Byron Doty's Band furnishing the
music; February IL, the entertain
ment committee Of the Sterling
Club headed by Mr.. Lawrence II.
Mccoy is giving a Valentine Party
at the Clubhouse; February IS,
the Fellowship Club featuring the
Modernettes are giving a Style
Show and Dance at Norway Hall
on Chicago Avenue with Clarence
Maxwell and his band; February
II, the Halle @. Brown Commu-
nifty House has issued clever invi-
tations asking, ''Won't you be my
Valentine on the 14th Of February
at z p. m. to dinner" This is their
Seventh Annual Dinner and DR..
John Gunderson Rockwell, Com
missioner Of Education for the
State of Minnesota, will be their
guest speaker. Rumor has it that
there will be a dance that same
evening, but the official details are
not at hand. Also on February II,
the Arbor Vitae Club of st. Phil
ip's Episcopal Church are giving a
card party in the Guild Hall. Mr..
L. n. Mccoy is heading the COM
mittee on arrangements. Then,
there seems to be a lull until the
21st Of February, when the Omega
Psi Phi fraternity will entertain
at dancing party at the Sterling
Club, and on the same evening, the
adult Dramatic Class Of the Halle
@. Brown House will have their
first Studio Formal for which an
nouncements will be issued this
week. February 22nd, the Twen-
tieth Century Club Of Minneapolis
are having their dancing party
and on the oath Of February, the
Ladies' Auxiliary Of the st. Paul
Urban League is giving a style
show and dance at the Halle @.
Brown, featuring the latest in
what milady will wear this spring.
All this crowding in Of activities
in these two weeks is due, my
friends, to the fact that Lent will
arrive Wednesday, February 26th,
and the climax to the February So
cial calendar will come Tuesday,
February 25th, when the Ladies'
Auxiliary Of the Sterling Club will
have q Cabaret Dance at the club
house for which announcements
viii be issued this week. Mrs. o.

new TAX DEMANDS
HAILED BY BANK HEAD
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, March 26.-Orrin G.
Wood of Boston, president Of the In
vestment Bankers Association Of
America, told bankers here last night
he was "heartened" by President
Roosevelt's demand for new taxes"
II believe that some day and in
some way we must pay for our present
extravaganza" he said. "The sooner
this is brought home to our citizens
by the unpleasant road Of taxation, the
sooner the budget will be balanced, the
less Of the bill will be to pay and the
less will be the danger of imitation"
Wood, addressing Ohio Valley men,
bers of his organization, said "the most
immediate fear of imitation comes from
the unbalanced budget, the unwilling
ness to levy taxes to decrease ex-
penses."
