MOVING MOUNTAIN RANGE
The Andes —the longest mountain system on earth, covering a lino of 4500 miles in length—are-moving! So claims Dr Bailey Willis, a noted American scientist. Moreover. Dr Willis traces the cause of earthquakes in Japan and Chile to the heaving of this mass of gold and silver and copper, of. lead and iron and tin, and of earth and stones. It was the moving of the Californian Mountains that caused the San Franeiso earthquake in 1906, adds Dr Willis.
