■si "To Tun out of the house when an * earthquake occurs is the worst thing you | can possibly do," said Mr. 6. Hogben, i lecturing before the Wellington Philofeophical Society. "Stay in the house, keep in the doorway, or under the table, but don't run out of the house. The chief danger occurs to people running out of the house. Even if the house comes down, you are pretty safe under the table, and if you look at records of earthquakes and buildings destroyed you will see doorways standing everywhere. People standing in doorways would have 'been safe, even in destructive earthquakes. In any case, it i 9 most dangerous to run out of the' building."
