Crushed by Car - Rib Fractured
Harry Calbert, Frances street, had
an. unfortunate experience on Satur-
day afternoon last. He had broken
the front axle of his car and had re-
placed it but had not yet put on the
wheels when he decided to tighten a
few more bolts. While doing this
the jack slipped and pinned him be-
neath the car, fracturing one of his
upper ribs on the right side and bruis
ing him badly about the shoulder.
Mrs, W. Lockridge, Miss A. Bening-
er and Mrs. Calbert raised the car
and freed him. Although able to

Eclipse of Sun, August 31st •
There will be an eclipse of the sun
visible in Canada on Wednesday,
August 31st, about 3 o'clock in the
afternoon. It will be a total eclipse
along a narrow strip in the province
of Quebec, just east of Montreal, and
great preparations are being made by
scientists and astronomers to go to
Quebec and study the phenomena to
be found only at the time when the
sun is totally eclipsed. In this part
of Ontario, the face of the sun will
be about three-quarters covered. This
will not . be sufficient to affect the
volume of light, and as a result there
will be an uncanny darkness. Even
at that, the eclipse will be interest-
ing and readers are advised to have
a piece of smoked glass bandy with
which to look at the progress of the
croon across the sun's surface.
