Divisions of Earth's Interior. From tbe evidence avallahle, R. D. Oldham traces three divisions In the earth’s Interior. The solid outer crust with a thickness of Vi to 1 per cent of tbe radius (or 20 to 40 miles), has high permanent rigidity, but from un known causes has been subject to de formations, with displacements of as much as ten miles vertically and 100 horizontally. The next section, about h alf the radius In thickness, has high rigidity for such streams as tidal ac tion, with low rigidity for long-con tinned stress. The central nucleus has low rigidity. The conclusions relat Ing to the two Inner divisions are drawn from records of earthquake waves. Harnessing Volcano. Tentative plans for the harnessing of Hawaii's mighty volcano, Kilauea, have been prepared by a committee of mnnu facturera on the Island, according tc. news reports. The volcano continuous ly Is giving off vast quantities of heal ranging as high as 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit. I t Is planned to harness the heat and develop It Into electricty for the unlimited development of Indus tries on the Island. It Is proposed tc make the heat available by borings made In safe territory, to depths where the heat Is constant and high enough for the development of a continuous steam pressure.

The larger ranges all round the world within the tropics; tbe smaller Is found only near the eastern seas from Madagascar to Mo luccas and southward to Australia. Both species breed In large colonies, building their nests on rocks, high cliffs or lofty trees on uninhabited islands.
