bergasted at the suddenness and re-
hemence of our inquiry. He finally ex
plained that there had been no re
cesses for some weeks back because
of bad weather. "Had we allowed a
recess this forenoon, for insUnee,
many of the children would have got
ten their feet wet In the yard and
probably their parents would have
complained to ns about it." The same
parents, you see, would have no pos
sible objection to the children getting
their feet wet at the noon hour. This
was carefully pointed out to the prin
cipal. He was also advised that the
achool board rules called for outdoor
recess morning and afternoon when
the weather waa suitable, and that un
less this recess was regularly given K
would be our painful doty to bring a
complaint against the principal, in the
Interest of the health of the children.
No recesses were given for another
indispensable provision for the physi
cal welfare of the child.

sent it to the Red Cross Chapter
here to be auctioned off to the high

This suggests the idea: ' Why not
a large Red Cross auction of stock
and other goods donated ? Such auc
tions have been held elsewhere with
tremendous success. Usually fab
ulous prices are paid for all such do
nated articles. At once such sale in
Nebraska, the auctioneer ran out of
things to sell long before the demand
was satisfied, so he put the moon up
for sale and it bought $200. He'
spied a farmer in the crowd who had
an unusually luxurious bunch of
whiskers and the auctioneer sold his
whiskers for $20.

On the afternoon of Saturday, June
8, 1918, the wonderful spectacle of a
total solar eclipse will be visible,
weather permitting, over a track ex
tending from the Pacific (Washing
ton) to the Atlantic (Florida). This
track of the moon's shadow is 70
miles wide at the western coast, nar
rowing to 40 miles in Florida.
For about an hour the" moon will
gradually encroach upon the sun's
disk, the daylight will fade, then the
narrowing crescent of the sun will
suddenly disappear, and around the
jet-black ball of the moon, hanging
in the northwestern sky among the
brighter stars, will be seen the pearly
radiance of the mysterious solar co
rona. The remarkable spectacle may
be enjoyed for 122 seconds at the
western coast, and for half that time
in Florida. Then the crescent of the
sun will appear on the other (west
ern) side of the moon, and after an
other hour the full disk of the sun will
shine as usual.
This, event happens at any one
place, on the average, only three times
in a thousand years.
The gaseous envelopes of the sun
can be advantageously studied by as
tronomers during the brief interval of
total, eclipse, and it is then only that
the corona can be observed. It is es
timated that there are only about 90
minutes in a century for the invests
gation of this interesting but still
perplexing outer appendage of the
sun. Its shape is not constant, but
varies with the 1 1-year cycle of the
sun's activity in producing sun
spots. Sun-spots are now about at
their maximum, and accordingly we
may expect a corona with streamers
distributed in all directions around
the sun, but not so widely extended
east and west as in 1900. The
streamers issuing from near the
sun's poles suggest somewhat certain
appearances of the aurora borealis.
The light of the corona is partly
reflected sunlight and partly radia
tion due to the intense heat It re
ceives from the sun. But the most
interesting part is due to an un
known gas, called coronium, which
has not yet been foand in the earth
or in the spectrum of any other son
For this section? of North Carolina,
there will be only a partial eclipse.
