EXAMPLE SET BY I
THEIR SUBJECTS’
LONDON, Feb. 15 (by mail).—King |
George and Queen Mary were among]
the first in England, as was Mrs j
Woodrow Wilson in the United States, ]
to make their household conform to i
the rigorous rationing system of a ^
food minister or administrator. Like j
the White House at Washington, the
royal family and staff at Buckingham
palace have been placed on the diet
suggested by the man chosen to con
serve the nation’s food supply, in
England, Lord Rhondda.
From the early days of the ministry
of food the king has insisted that
! every suggestion for self-denial which
j has been put before the people of the
country must be loyally observed
throughout the royal household. !
Sir Derek Keppel, master of the
household, said in an interview this (
'_ J
! “We are all in line here with the *
j rations, and 1 am saying no nore than
j what is common knowledge when I
tell you that 1 never knew any people
so thoroughly conscientious in this
matter as the king and queen. They
accept the restrictions with the most
noticeable cheerfulness, taking real
pleasure in bearing their share of the
food hardships.
“The royal household is a large and
varying one. Its changing character
makes some difficulty in the rationing, .
but if any error is made in the calcu
lation it is in the direction of 'less’
rather than ‘more.' We keep in con
stant touch with the ministry o.’ food,
learning each day whatever new regu
lations may be impending.
"Quite often recently the royal
. J larder has been empty of such com
i modifies as butter, margarine, and tea,
| and we have gone without, from king
j down. The king and queen have re
I peatedly spoken to me to impress me
i with the duty of self-denial in food
j and drink. The king in the first days
j of the war pledged himself to total ab
stinence from alcoholic beverages, and
that pledge holds good today over the
whole household.
“The king actually tries always to
anticipate restrictions. A long while ‘
ago he insisted on coal economy in
the palace. Waste of fuel or coal con
stitutes a grave offense among the
- J servants of the king.”
FRUPTIONS UE VOLGANO
AT REGULAR INTERVALS
j HONOLULU, T. H„ Feb. 18 (by
| mail).—Activity in the fiery pit of
i Halemaumau, volcano of Kilauae, has
' drawn the attention to the people to
j the possibilities" of another serious
eruption.
* .Careful study of the history of the
* volcanoes of Kilauea and Mauna Loa
by Volcanologist T. A. Jaggar, in
charge of the Kilauea observatory, has
developed the fact that great erup
tions occur in cycles of approximately
130 years, which may affect several
j volcanoes at the same time.
This 130 year period seems to be I
! definitely established, hut there is;
j also a secondary period of nrcuinula-1
I tion and discharge of lava every nine
or ten years, alternating in Kalauea |
and Mauna Loa, with a marked rise
of the lava column in each volcano,
about every three years.
The present great rise of the lava
in Kalauea is a little ahead of sched
ule.. The year 1920 would be the end
of the 130-year- and 65-year cycles, but
a matter of two years is considered i
close enough approximation by scien
tists.
The volcano presents a more spec
tacular appearance now than for many
years previously.
