Valuable ’ Souvenir o f Won- - drous Scene 'which Occurs Saturday For the first time in astronomical history hundreds of thousands of amateurs will be able to photograph the eclipse occuring Saturday morn- ing. A total eclipse of the sun is the most beautiful spectacle the heavens affords and the rarest. Not in centuries has one happened in theseparts before. not in centuries will one happen again and the op- portunity will not be lost on camera devotees. Heretoi’ore such oppor- tunities have been confined to small groups of scientists able to travel to remote corners of the globe .where the phenomenon was visible. As the forthcoming eclipse. makes its path through one of the most densely populated areas of the ’country..fully ten million people will see it and an army of amateurs be able to photo- graph it from their own housotops or back yards. Only cloudy weath- er can prevent it. And in a path 100 miles wide and stretching from sea. and also a piece of smoked glass. or 'what is more convenient to handle. a fairly dark photogra- phic negative through which to look at the sun just before the be- ginning of totality. “’hat To Look libs. . The following are the principal objects of interest to the ordinary observer. Some of them can only be seen under exceptionally favor- able'clrcumstances. and one of them at least is not expected to be visible at this eclipse. . 1. The shadow bands 2. Bailey's beads 3.

Little is known about it and it is hoped that. this year will reveal some hints about several great mys- teries. . In the first place it is interest- ing for the scientist to try to discover whether the corona is electrical. atmospheric or atomic.

The shadow will travel from Buffalo to New ‘I-Iaven in six minutes. totality beginning in the latter city about -9:13 and lasting two minutes. What. To Look For. ‘ . A little more than an hour before the time set for totality. the observer will note a small dent or nick in the western edge of the sun.

Within ap- proximately half an hour half,the sun’s surface will be covered. The eastward Journey will be continued until only a slight crescent remains and then as this crescent dwindles— totality. This moment of totality is the mo- ment of all moments for the photo- grapher. The sun is a huge body of intensely shot gases more‘ than 860.- 000 miles in diameter.

It is this wonderful corona that the photo- grapher will want to record on his film. » \ To Photograph ’Ibtality. , . As the sun will be low in the sky at this early hour it will be advisable to and a poation for the camera commanding a good. unobstructed view of-the eastern sky. The higher the point of observation the better. Exact exposures cannot be.given but as totality lasts from’;soveral sec- onds to two minutes. according to locality. there will be ample time to make a. number of exposures say from half a second up to 20 seconds.

Great care. it is also obvious. must be taken to not move the cam in opening and closing the aim ter. ‘For photo- graphing totality no filter should be used .but-in looking directly at the sun. even when’it dwnndles to a nar- ’ row crescent. it is very important to protect the eyes with smoked or colored glass. , '. Photographing Partial Eclipse. . ._While the total eclipse is the great spectacle to observe and photograph. ‘many' amateurs will also want to photograph the partial stages. In many sections also only a partial eclipse will be visible. For photo- Eraphing these partial phases a ser- ies of exposures may be made on one section of film without turning. Simply get the sun.. just. as the eclipseb‘eglns. on the right side of the tinder, make the. first exposure at the first dent in its edge. close the shutter and expose again at intervals say of 'l Eminutes. For these ex- posures a filter or piece of exposed film in frantic! the lens will be no- cemry.

After the per- iod of totality these shadow *bands may also be observed. though run- ning in a different direction. They vary greatly and are so faint that they have not been photographed. 2. Bailey“ beads. Just before the dual disappearance of the sun. when only a thin edge remains. it breaks up into a series of points of light resembling beads. with dark spaces between. They get their name 1.me that of the astronomer who first re- corded and commented upon them in 1886. The accepted explanation is that the light spaces are sunlight passuxk through the valleys on the surface oi the moon. the dark spac- es being the mountains on the moon which are high enough to obscure the sun. This phenomenon is not always observed in a total eclipse. but ordinarily it islvisibie. It may also be seen at the cadet totality. 3. The advancing shadow. Just about the Bailey's beads stage of the eclipse the observer. if fortunately placed. may be able to see the adc vanciug shadow of the eclipse. ii is necessary to be on a hlsh‘emln- ence commanding a‘viow of the ground for some miles to the west. To an observer so placed the shsd~ ow of the eclipse may be, seen sweeping towards him at the rate of a mile every two seconds. and is de- scribed by those who have seen it as most awa inspiring. If the ob- server also commands a view to the east for some miles he may also see the recedlg shadow after totality has ceased. . i. The chromosphere. ' This is the atmosphere surrounding the sun im- mediately above its actual surface or photosphere. - The chromosphero is a few thousand miles in depth. and contains most of the chemicalele. ments which have been discovered on the earth. When the moon is so. placed that its disc just covers the sun the duration of totality will be very brief. but during that period the chromosphere will be observed completely surrounding the “black disco! themoon and of a deep rosy color. When 'vlslblerit is of great beauty. but cannot be seen-at the coming eclipse because the moon is so placed that it will obscure not only the sun. but the chro osphere also. Just as the sun fins ly'dlsap- pears. a portion of the chromosphere will, of course. be in sight for a sec- ond or less. but'the view isiso brief that the eye cannot etect itrunless aided by a complies d apparatus which is out of the reach of most.. » 5.

Fro the point of view of the Elns in theory the eclipse is linterestlng because the covering of~the disc of thesun will per- mit the photographing and ob- servation of the sky background of the sun. Einstein's theory says that the rays of light from theibtars around the sun are at- tracted by its huge built. When the sun is shining if b impos- sible.to observe the background of—the sun. and the rays of‘lidit from stars beyond the sun can: not ‘ be observed. and so the curve, if min is any. cannot be studied. Another hypothesis which may be studied when the sun is dsr- kened concerns the poniblo dis- covery of planets inside the or- bit of Mercury! north star. rounding the black Its inani~ lactation is conditioned by sun spOi activity. At the. maumum pet-ion the corona is generally largest in up tent.‘most brilliant. and most gym- mettlcal. At the minimum the coro- na is dimmer and has a tendency to run out in sire era extending many million miles rum the sun. \Nheu prominence: of the streamer type are found. streamer-sot the corona some times bend over the top of the prommences forming t sort of hood, the result being a strutlng and beau— liiui contrast uetWeen thescarlet oi the prominences and the pearl) light of the corona. ’l’he nature and action of the corona are not tutu known. but are objects of deepest in- terest to astronomers. « it is in part caused by minute particles of mat- ter driven away from the sun and re— tiectlng its light. There are. how- ever. electric and magnetic factors which are’stlilthe subject of study. 7. Stars and planets. If visibility .is good the brighter of the heavenly bodies in the neighborhood of the sun will be clearly in view. South- west of the sun and near together will'be found the three planets. Venus. Jupiter and Mercury. named in-the order ot‘their apparent size. Most‘people who see them Will'seez mercury for the 'first time in their Ilfes. Northwest of‘the sun may be discovered two first magnitude star-g, Altair. one of our nearestneighbors in space. and Vega. one of the most brilliant stars and one which in some 10,0000&,'15.000 years will be the 'lwan d'Arc hambeau.

A disciple of the famous singer, Manuel Ase. heard him and offered instruction. ii tudied in Barcelona. but made h debut in Trieste. going from there to Rome. Bologna. Milan, Vienna. Madrid. and the Colon a_t Buenos Ayres. When he first sang in Madrid he was ac- Spanish tenors, and has since been chosen to create important roles by modern composers. Fleta's voice is a pure fresh tenor. clear and bell- llke in quality and has unusual power of coloring a single long note. Miss Marsh is a pupil of the late ”aloha \Valter Hall. of New York, and is an example of what may be ac- complished by an American girl u der an American teacher.

He was one of the speakers at the Unlversaiist laymen‘s dinner at the Hotel Commodore. where a cam- paign for a fund of 81.000.000 was opened. This fund. to be subscribed over a five-year period. is to be spent in rehabilitating the church's prop- erty in Japan. augmenting the super- annuated pastors' fund and in the construction of a national church in \N’phlngton. . C. Putting his check for ”000 on the table. Mr. Nash said he would add 899.000 to the amount at the rate of £20,000 a year for five years if oth , churchmen of any denominati would raise 8900.000.
