try for 1000 people who will give

$50,000 as an initial payment. It is
our hope that we will bouble to
take over the entire estate for park

impossible, we will take over the
whole estate anyway. and sell what
part of it we cannot pay for our-
selves. Title will go to us upon the

NEW! HAVEN, Jan. 5.—“Old rec-
ords of eclipses have been of great
help to astronomers by proving that
there are small changes in the
length of the day and lunar month.”
said Professor Ernest W. Brown‘of
the department of mathematics and
astronomy at Yale tdday. “The w
tronomcrs have repaid the debt by
showing that a good record of an
ancient eclipse will fix the date for
the historian." '
The professor who is chairman of
the committee on public informcuon
and operation 0; the sun January 2‘.
has been delving into ancient lore
on the subject of eclipses.
“Tho tracks or eclipses a them.
and or more years ago can now be
laid down within a score of miles
by calculation and the time can be
given t. on. few minutes," said the
profcmor. "If the record shows
that an eclipse was total at some
particular place and the historian
can tlx the century. the astronomer
can nearly always fix the your. day
and hour. because it wil generally
be the on] ytotal celipse visible at
that place in a. century."
Though the track on the earth of
a total eclipse may be many thous-
and miles long, th eprotessor said. it
will only average a' hundred miles or
so wide and though one or two oc-
cur each year any one place may
get within the track only once in
several centuries. London has had
only two in over a thousand years
while Endinburgh has had five in
the same time. 2
"The earliest known record of a
somewhat doubtful Chinese eclipse
more than'2.000 B. C..',' said Profes-
sor Brown. “indicated that the no
tronomers Ho! and Ho. instead of

ntlre city will be asked to

project. One of the things which
Miss Scovill plans to do is to have a
list of things which are not so made
out in connection with the Farm.
One of the fallacies to be corrected
is thecommon contention that the
property is so far from Stamford
that the people of Greenwich will
derive the greater benefit from its
purchase. As a matter of fact Lad-
din Rock “Farm is nearer the Town
