Rev. Preston Describes New
Lava Flow in Hawaii
By T. DAVIS PllKSTOV
(Former Klumnth .Minister)
HONOKAA,' Hawaii, Dec. 2S.
We have appreciated the let
ters from a number of Klamath
Falls friends who enjoyed tl-.o
accounts I have sent of the vol
cnno eruption on the Island. I
felt that the Inst installment In
which 1 told of the experience
we had with our friends who
were lost might bo all that there
would be to tell, but the end Is
not yet. There is new and vig
orous activity as many of you
have doubtless read In the press
and heard over the radio and
we have had more Interesting
experiences since the volcano re
newed Its activity.
New Flow Occur
Word reached us some days
ago that the new flow of lava
along, approaching a small hill
perhnpa 20 feet in height, which
would divert the stream, we saw
the ground ahead of the flow
about 50 feet nuddeuly bulge up
and crack open with the pres
sure of the gas which presently
ignited and kept burning till the
flow covered the whole and
went on to wrap Itself around
a fair sited tree. In a hour's
time It had reached a wire fence
and sot fire to the posts and
then ceased flowing, for the
time being at least. I succeed
ed In getting 100 feet of colored
film and will anxiously await
the result.

wns most snectacnlar and active. flow by bombing the source of
me new now rrom me air. inn
was scheduled for today. I was
fortunnte to meet the govern
ment geologist this evening and
to hear him tell of the effort
they had made this morning.
The army bombing phine flew
over the spot at 4000 foet ele
vation, traveling at 150 mites
an hour. Twenty bombs con
taining each 300 pounds of T.
N. T. were dropped at the crack
from which the new flow is com
ing. This mark, which they must
hit to be effective, is about 30 .
feet in diameter. Of the 20
bombs dropped two" came near
the edge of the mark but were
ineiieciive in taeir purpose. iaiji
is the first time any such ex-1 1
periment has been attempted. 1 1
My friend, the geologist, said he
was trying to figure out some i
way to place dynamite on this
spot without dropping it from j I
the air. When mother-nature Is
rampaging as she is Just now on
this Island, belching out count
less tons of molten rock contin-
uously for almost a month, well,
man's efforts, even with T. N.
T., seem very puny. Not even I
our renowned volcanologlst wtio 1
lives with this kind of thing can
tell from one day to the next j
what old man volcano will do.
So far, fortunately, no property
of any value Is affected, but the
flow Is almost on valuable pas
ture land and about 10 miles
from the source of the water i 1
supply of the city of Hilo (the,
same size as Klamath Falls), j
According to the volcanologlst,
If the flow became heavy enough
it could flow into the river
which creates the city water
supply and entirely divert it.
Back 50 years ago when Hilo
was little more than a village a
flow came down to its edge.
Despite these little interludes
of nature the Hawaiian Islands
are the Paradise of the Pacific,
of wonderful interest, glorious 1 1
climate, happy ana prosperous
people. Come over and see ns,
maybe the fireworks will still
be on!

and had now reached the saddle
of the mountains and was flow
ing rather rapidly . toward the
city or Hilo. This news creat
ed great Interest and excitement
and no little concern to some.
The Chritmas holidays afforded
a fine opportunity to make the
Journey again to get to the flow.
There was no hesitation on our
part this time since the flow
had now reached within a quar
ter of a mile of the road. To
see the flow it would not be
necessary, as before, to hike
across the lava. On Christmas
day we started for the moun
tain. The weather was perfect,
like a fine, warm, sunshiny day
in June in Klamath Falls. The
mountain road had been much
traveled and was very dusty and
alow. In three hours we were
as far as the road went and at
the flow. We were able to walk
to a branch of the main flow
which was almost Imperceptibly
moving down a slight slope. The
main flow was 50 to 100 yards
away, moving quite rapidly. As
I was anxious to get some col
ored movies of the flow I was
anxious to get to the head of
the flow and, with a party,
started in the direction the main
flow was taking. After a mile
or so we found the going too
difficult and were forced to turn
back and make tor our base
where the cars were parked. On
our way back we heard loud ex
plosions and believed the army
had started bomblg operations
to divert the flow, since this had
been reported as likely. When
we reached our base we saw
great excitement among the
large number of people gather
ed. The branch flow had become
active and was moving at the
rate of about five miles an hour.
Sight Is Impressive
It was now almost dark and
the sight was wonderful and
awe-inspiring. This branch was
about ah nndred feet wide and.
at the head, about five feet
deep. It was coming from the
main stream and paralleling it
for a distance of abont a mile.
We were following the head of
the flow as it moved along hiss-
inar and flaming, burning np the
grass and sura DS as it pusnea
tu way forward. Further back
in the stream where it was per
haps 10 to 20 feet deep It was
churning and exploding ana
shooting np tongues of gaseous
flame. The heat was, of course,
intense. . Shielding one's face, it
was possible to get within 10
yards of the head of the flow.
The principal occupation of the
spectators was to run to the
edge with a shovel, or hoe, and
make a quick stab into the pour
ing fiery mass and ran back
with as much as could be gath
ered up. Dropping it on the
ground and while ret hot, some
metal object such as a coin or
statuette was put into the mass
and with a stock ' or poker the
molten mass was folded around
the object and allowed to cool.
This makes an interesting sou
venir. As we watched this fiery
spectacle literally spellbound,
the gathering darkness intensi
fied the sight. Looking across
this valley, down which the main
stream is flowing, we could see
this fiery, molten, exploding
mass a mile wide pouring along.
I was fascinated by one spot In
the main stream where, amidst
already hardened lava, a regular
fiery cascade was rushing, seem
ingly into a hole. Looking np
the mountain from the source of
this flow the fiery stream, like
a great serpent winding in and
out could be seen for a distance
of 10 miles.
As we stood watching our
own branch stream pouring
