And little wonder that even modern sophistication _ cannot contemplate' the approach of a total eclipse of the sun without betraying excitement. Strange Day Coming What, then, can Torontonians ex- pect to see when the sun goes into temporary retirement on the morn- ing of Saturday, January 24? This was the question with which The Globe approached Prof. C. A. Chant of the Department of Astronomy of the University of Toronto. Those who attended the meeting at the Can- adian Club were able to hear the Pro- fessor's answer in person, but, for the | benefit of those who did not have the Prof. Chant has con- sented to answer by proxy. A Favored Area. It was stated that a limited area of" south western Ontario, including 'Toronto, Hamilton and London, would see both the partial and total eclipse. 'Readers of this article can discover | for themselves whether"or not they will see the complete eclipse on the basis of facts that the belt of totality extends approximately fifty miles on either side of a line drawn between Goderich and Bridgeburg. What fol- lows only applies to those within this belt. A Swift Moving Shadow According to Prof. Chant, the two | most majestic features of the eclipse 'are the approach of the shadow and the corona. Once seen, he says, neither can be forgotten. It seems al- most inconceivable that any human being can actually see the approach of anything so evanescent as a shad- ow, particularly when that shadow is | moving at the rate of 4,200 miles an hour, or 70 miles a minute, but ex- shown thatthe moon's shadow is 80 sharply defined that its advance across the arth can be seen providing the observer is suitably situated, Air Ship Would Help Any high eminence which com mands a view of the west will 'do-- an air ship or the'top of a mountain would be best--but Torontoians will have to be satisfied with the top of such high buildings as the 'Royal Bank building of the Clty Hall tower. moon will start to pass across the face of the sun. To the onlooker it will appear as though some Bagsmouth had started nibbling at the solar o leaving ~an ever-inereasing eresent- shaped hole as it eats its way toward the centre. Once past the centre of the whole will become so large that the exposed portion of the sun will, in its turn, take on the form of a cresent which will steadily decrease in thickness. Thus far little else has happened. Daylight continues ap- parently as bright as ever and there is still no signs of the flaming par- ticles that shoot out from the sun for hundreds of thousands of miles. Like Approaching Storm = About ten minutes before the be- ginning of totality, however, things begin to look as if the world was out of joint. "The sky is still clear but there are omnious signs of what ap- pears to be an approaching storm. All that remains of the sun is a cresent so thin that one might be excused for thinking a puff of wind would blow it away. And then come the famous shadow bands. Queer bapded shadows move over the sides of buildings. If you want to observe them at their best lay out a white sheet flat on the ground, and you will see waves of shadow moving across it from west to east. As Prof. Chant puts it, the air has that same wavy,appearance that is sometimes seen over heated pavements at midsummer, "Baily's Tears" Appear. Then; to return to the sun, just be- fore the cresent disappears it seems to break up into a series of bright beads--Baily's. Beads--as they are called after the astronomer who first observed them. Now is the time to watch for the shadow. Far out to the west the horizon disappears, to be re- placed by a line between twilight and daylight rushing toward you at a terrifit speed of 4,200 miles an hour. Under ordinary circumstances your glimpse of its terrifying approach can be only nmiomentary, but to use Prof. Chant's words, "that brief moment offers one of the grandest sights that man can ever hope fo witness." Strange Pearly Halo" Once the shadow has passed --it reaches Toronto at seven minutes and nine seconds after 9 o'clock--all else is forgotten in the appearance of the eclipsed sun itself, now completely »| at the edge of the moon. ference for a distance diameters. Now you see that por- tion of space immediately surround- ing the sun as it really is, The light from the central seething mass has been cut off, leaving only the glow from the incandescent particles that the earth's huge candle is always throwing out into space. Sometimes the spectacle is made still more weird by blood-red prominences just visible Whether these will be seen or not cannot be predicted, as their presence or ab- sence seems to depend on the temper which the sun happens to be in at the moment of eclipse. Shadow Creeps On. But, prominence or no prominence, the corona is visible for only one min- uet and twelve seconds. By the ead of that time the shadow will be creep- ing on toward the Atlantic, and a crescent-shaped streak of sun will appear on the opposite side of the moon to that from which it disap- peared. The total eclipse is over, not to return to Ontario again until A.D. 2144; but you will still have until 10.22 to observe the second phase of the partial eclipse. . In connection with the shadow bands. It is interesting to note Mrs. Chant's impression of their appear- ance as she saw them during the eclipse which occurred in Australia in September of lagt year, "The darkness was rapidly coming on and the landscape assumed a peculiar greenish hue, as if a storm was approaching," she writes in the November-December number of th journal of Royal Astronomical So- ciety of Canada. "The seconds went by and I felt rather nervous as this was my first experience of the kind." Elusive, Wave-Like Shadows. "Suddenly, and before-I expected it the shimmering, elusive, wave-like shadows began to sweep over me and the sheet. I grasped the rod and moved it back and forth until it was parallel to the crests of the waves as they moved forward. = (Mrs. Chant had been assigned the task of observ- ing the bands, the rod being set to determine the line taken by the shadow crests.) "At the same time I began counting seconds, and I con- tinued counting up to 150° before totality was announced. I think per- haps I counted a little too rapidly, and, allowing for that, I judge that the bands began approximately 2% minutes before totality. They con- tinued to move over me for only a short time, perhaps ten seconds, and then they were gone. They were faint, thrilling, ghost-like, but definite enough for me to be sure that I had seen the shadow bands."

ANDARD BANK OF CANADA. PORT PERRY BRANCH---H. G. Hutcheson, Manager Branches also at Blackstock, Little Britain, Myrtle Station, Nestleton Station, Sunderland Well, they played out their twenty minutes, but the results were nil. After all that fast skating, fancy stick handling, fine combination play, and good shooting, the score stood 0-0 at the end of the first period. During the intermission, while the ice was being scraped a diversion was created by some Lindsay people who threw pennies to a youngster who had wandered out on the ice. Allen Oke had a great harvest.during that inter- mission (4lc. in all), but alas, when a mine is discovered there is always a rush for the fields, and in the second intermission, although the copper changed to silver, Allen didn't have much show, there were too many miners for the amount to be served. But they had a good time, and the scramble for coins kept the spectators amused, while waiting for the teams to come back. Another appreciated diversion during intermission was the playing of the Port Perry band, which sounded first rate and enlivened the proceedings considerably. In the second period, the play was fast and the struggle settled down to a more thorough contest. Perhaps the first enthusiasm had worn off; but the busifiess of winning the game was considered more serious. In the first period Port Perry had kept the Lindsay goaler busy;but in the second period Lindsay became aggressive, and Port Perry began to feel the force of their playing when an event took place that changed the com- plexion of things. MacGregor taking a pass from Guy Raines rushed the puck through and scored the first goal. Now there was something to play for. Both teams took on new life. Wilford and Hamilton of Lindsay be- came especially busy, and then Wil- ford scored for his siide, That saw all there was to that period. Just a steady grind of good fast playing with an even score of 1-1. About this time Port Perry began to sit up and take notice. Word went round that Port Perry would win, be- cause they were in condition and had the staying qualities. This proved to be true. In spite of the fact that the ice was getting heavy, the game kept up a furious pace. Each of our play- ers was at his best; but it was notice- able that Port Perry paid one tribute to their opponents. They kept their defence pretty well in position, and Ted Jackson did not have the oppor- tunity to make those splendid in- dividual rushes. The same was true with Beck; although both of them broke away at times, and kept the Linlsay players busy. This left the fight pretty well in the hands of MacGregor, Raines and Boe, and Lindsay can testify to their effectiveness. When Raines got the | puck, it was no easy task to get § away from Jim. Boe also showed up a the I period. i 2 about four subs Keith McMillan and Will | fine work, and the Inter- body's aunt will have to be there to see. While Lindsay didn't do muéh yell- ing on the way back to the train it might be remarked that they didn't do any grumbling either. The game was well played and pretty clean, each side drew about an even number of penalties.

Em 111 SEU we THE HIGH SCHOOL WINS On Monday night the local High School Boys played Whitby here, and won by a score of 9-4. The score was tied at the end of the first and second periods, but in the final twenty min- utes Port Perry were all over their rivals, In the first period Port Perey scored three goals in flve minutes, but Whitby led by livin came right back to tie it up before the period ended" The play from there on was very even until the last period, when Port Perry, displaying some brilliant combination, broke through for four goals. All the boys played up to form, especially McMillan, Nesbitt, and Dowson. Dean Irwin, right wing, and Clark, goaler, were best for Whitby. Joe Bandell (the human tank) was not very fast but he had a habit of get- ting in the way. The exhibition was quite satisfying to all, and the fans are unanimous in saying that the High School have a real team and if they do not get into the final there will be many disap- pointed. The boys are playing Bowmanville a return game here next week and the following week they play Oshawa. Both of these games should be good. The line up: Whitby--goal, Clark; defence, Rice and Bandell, centre, Irwin, wings, Me- Cormick and Sleeman, subs, Robert- son and Irwin. 3 Port Perry--goal, Kaufman; de-" fence, McMillan and Nesbitt; centre, Dowson; wings, Cellacutt and Karl Doubt. subs, and M.
