SEB TII.n ECLIPSE.
Everyone should 'rake prepara-
tions to see as -much of the sun',s
eclipse on Saturday: morning as Pat
Bible. Not for over one hundr
years, since 1806,'have.the residents
of Ontario had an opportunity 'of see-
ing a total eclipse .of the aun, and
.not until 2144 will Ontario have an-
other sub opportunity.' This is our
first,. -last and only chance, unless
we change our place of location, and
as we are in the best position to wit-
ness this one no one who can get out
at . all ought to. miss it, if the morn-
ing be favorable. To quote from
statements made'by those who have
studied the 'natter:
"We are promised: the most mag-
nificent spectacle the. heavens have to
offer. The moon • will obliterate the
sun and the narrow strip of the earth'
affected will be for one minuto or
more in total, darkness. ponies mil-
lions of chiles in- 1eng�„, say the'
seientists, will, be seen shootling from
the sun, behind the blackness of the
solid ball of 'rock and sand composing
the .moon,; Presumably this flame
broadcasting is all'in the usual day's
work for the sun but the obstnuettve
tactics of the moon on this particular
day • will enable ordinary ihortals to
view these fire -flinging effects:
On the edges of the shadow path
there will riot be a total eclipse, but
some parts of the sun will, be ob-
scured, and some of the effects clear-
ly, discernable under good conditions.
In Canada a line drawn from Goder-
ick on Lake Huron to Niagara Falls
will be the centre of the shadow path
and the darkest of the total eclipse.
The total eclipse will pass over this
part of Ontario at the rate of 4,200
miles an hour, doing ;he 'trip front
Goderich - to ` Niagara Falls In one
urinate and •56 -seconds. Partial
eclipse will be in progress in''this
territory, however, for more'than two
hours'
The ""show" willstart afbout' eight
o'clock but, so far at can be ascer-
tainencl, the total eclipse''will occur, a
few. minutes after nine For' over two
hours, however, there' will he weird
