purpose has received the support of

al government and of foreign nations;
and It is noted with particular sat
isfactlon that the exposition author!
ties have in their official classifica

to have established its relative rank
as an exposition topic by assigning
to education for tho first time in the
history of international expositions,
a separate and adequate building.
This association desires to express
its appreciation of the liberal and
scientific policy thus outlined by the
exposition authorities, and to pledge
to the full extent of Its powers and
nuruose its hearty support."

Gravitation as a Cause for Volcanic
Action.
In relation to the action of the sun
and moon on Intensifying volcanic
disturbances, it seems quite possible
that a volcano on tho point of orup
tion would be more liable to burst
forth with the combined action or
gravitational pull of tho sun and moon
acting in conjuction on a part of tho
earth that stood square before the
sun. The action, If any, must be due
to tho gravitational pull or tidal ef
feet on the liquid interior of the earth.
Tho electrical disturbances being of
a secondary nature, no doubt caused
by the heat from tho volcano, tho
planetary influence or their positions
are insignificant as compared with tho
attraction of tho sun and moon. With
the possible exception of the planet
Venus its gravitational pull, although
Blight, If added to that of tho sun and
moon while in conjunction might bo
the means of opening one of nature's
safety valves. As for comparison
pass a large magnet over tho safety
valve of a eteam boiler that is on the
point of blowing off and note the ef
fect.
On referring to the almanac we
find the sun and moon May 7 In con
junction almost .directly overhead of
tne Island of Martinique, and allowing
a few hours tidal lag of the liquid in
terior we find the greatest effect at
about the time Mont Pelee blew up.
Similar conditions are again due on
the 3rd of August. And if the pres
sure has not been greatly reduced by
the last eruption we may look for in
creased activity at about that date.
