STAR TIME
Have you ever wondered what was
the source of the time signals •heard
.daily over the Clic? They originate
in a master cluck at the Dominion
Observatory, which nestles in a clump
of trees at the Dominiou experimental
1'29; suicides nuutlreted farm on the outskirts of Ottawa, and
947, and 146 persons were murdered, it is tended by W. S. MeClonahan,
'In order of importanee after the gen- Canada's No. 1 keeper, officially
oral classification of violent deaths, known as the chief of the country's
lime Service.
This clock, without a face, hands
or mainspring, is buried deep in a
vault, It is a mass of slowly revolving
wheels kept dustproof under a glass
case, and it ticks away the seconds by
what the scientists call "star time."
Every clear night an observer records
the "true" time from the stars through
a telescope and checks it against the
siderail clock. However, if the master
clock is running either fast or slow
they don't change it because it never
is out more than a tenth of a second
each way, they just subtract or add
the necessary fraction to the clock
reading,
This synhcronome siderail clock is
buried in the humidity and temper-
ature-controlled vault beneath the ob-
servatory. It sends out an endless
stream of second, minute and hour
signals which synchronize hundreds
of government clocks in Ottawa, start ,
trains on schedule, provide the scien-
tists and the laymen with the time of
day and .are broadcast to .the North
Pole as far south as South America.
This is the master clock that pro-
vides the electrical impulses for time

for three stations operated by the
Transport Department Which broad-
cast time pulses 24 hours a day Par

others who need accurate time,

SOUND OF STARS
CONFIRMS BIBLE
Agnostics and sceptics of the divine
inspiration of the bible are always be-
ing confounded by the scientists. The
naked eye can only see a few thousand
stars, proof to sceptics that the bible
was wrong' when it spoke of them be-
ing' beyond numbering, but science in-
vented telescopes which already have
proven that there are billions of stars
yin the universe. Bible sceptics also
:scuff at the references in Holy Writ to
;singing stars and the whole creation
!groaning, etc. Now science once again
backs up the bible and gives another
proof that the scriptures must have
been divinely inspired.
Radar devices developed during the
re ar have uncovered a new world of
sound coming-from all around the cos-
mos, and have provided the first scien-
tific evidence of the existence of some-
thing along the lines of "the music of
the spheres," postulated by Pythagoras
more than 2,500 years ago and ment-
ioned several times in the bible. This
'radar apparatus and techniques have
brought to light for the first time a
vast range of radio frequencies gener-
ated all over the cosmos by the sun,
the Milky Way and other galaxies, as
well as front spaces where the most.
powerful telescopes have so far failed
to locate any stellar bodies.
The birth of this new science called
radioastronom'Y is an offspring of a
union of radio engineering and astro-
physics. Astronomers, physicists, el-
ectrical engineers and pioneers in rad-
io communication met recently at
Cornell University in the first confer-
ence of its kind to discuss the new
techniques for "tuning in on the uni-
verse." Mysterious noises coming from
the direction of the Milky Way were
first observed inure than 15 years ago,
but it is only lately that perfected de-
vices have made it possible to listen to
the "song of the cosmos." The bible
says "SING, 0 YE HEAVENS ,
PRAISE YE HIM, SUN, AND
MOON, PRAISE HIM ALL YE)
STARS OF LIGHT, and THE
WHOLE CREATION GROAN-
ETIL" Now science confirms those
'facts.

KNOW WHITECHURCH
(From the Lucknow Sentinel in
1877,) "About thirteen years lgo
(1864), a preaching station was open-

which is now called Whitechurch, At
that time the number of settlers were

not exceed ten or twelve families. The
station was united with St, Helens.
The few families in Kinloss determin-
