ate of both college and high school.

Terrell Is lady that the race should
be thoroughly proud of; for she repre-
septs it's highest and bsst type.
1t was a beautiful scepce, in that

dlence of more than three thousand
people-the sires, the sages, the schol
srs OF all lands, man Of thought and
Ietters-when this lady vas introduced,
SO fittingly introduced by President
Burrowns in his own inImitable way.
Her first words caught the ear of the
audience. Nothing more was necessary
The victory was won. have given all
in q nut shell when l say this Mrs.
Terrell spoke Gin voice that could be
heard in any part of the great tent in
chosen words"-in the
choicest English Her theme was,
"The debt of gratitude which the Ne
groes owe to Oberlin." She began by
saying, "The gratitude [ owe to Ober-
lin is twofold: for am woman and
a Negro" These two ideas as suggest
ed by her sex and her race constitute !
the pivot of the Oberlin creed. OberIin
has always been true to her colors.
She has never turned her back upon
man because Of his color or upon wo-
man because of her sex. In the His |
tory and Organization of the college
we find these words: "The educational |
facilities of Oberlin College have al |
ways been open, without reg ard to sex
or color, to all worthy applicants quail
fed to enter the classes" Her first
words then found q respon sive chord. |
Mrs. Terrell spoke at the Alumni

what an Expert on the Subject Says
About 1t.

Sir Norman Loekyer, who has observed
more eclipses than any other man living,
says in the Youth $ companion:

seconds is tfns stated. The reason for
this is simple. As the moon passes be-
fore the sun, beB shallow IS. cast on the
earth. Owing to- the rotation of the
earth round her axis during this period
of tOUality this shadow travels over q
long line on the earth surface.
"a map of its path shows that at a
certain point in the Pacific ocean the sun

Norfolk crosses the Atlantic, and ends in

along this narrow streak the time OF mid
totality is different As astronomers be-
gin a new day when the sun is on the
meridian. that isy; when he is highest in
the sky there swiH be places which have
the time of mid-totality before noon, and
some after noon. AT all the American
stations the eclipse will be visible on
May e. before noon, but. on that part of
the track which passes through Portugal
Spain and Algiers, observers will see the
eclipsed sun after noon of May 2S
''If we deal with short intervals of
time we find some regions are more ia
VcrabIe than Others in the matter of
eclipses. For Instance, the British isle.

of the sun IN England occurred as long
ago as the 18th of May, O. S. May % N

% of the year 1921 before we are favored
with another. Londoners have seen only
one total solar eclipse since the twelfth
century, that which occurred on April %
1715, and it will not be till the twenty
fifth century that the next one becomes
due.
I'm case of the United. States, there is
quite different story to tell The Amer

TO observe these phenomena. Since the
eclipse track swept across the United
States on Aug. 7. 1859 no less than three
others, in 1878, 1880 and 1885, have been OBJ

CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER.
HE EXPIRES SUDDENLY AFTER
LYING DOWN.

(By Telegraph to Virginian- Pilot.)
Hartford, Conn. Oct. 2O.-Charles
Dudley Warner of literary fame, one
of the owners of the Hartford Courant,
died suddenly this afternoon. Mr..
Warner had a very severe attack of
pneumonia two years ago while in New
Orleans and has never fully recovered
from it. Last spring he had pneumonia
again while at his home and this had
weakened his heart. OF late he has
been much better. At noon to-day he
attended a luncheon to bid farewell to
some friends about to leave for the
Mediterranean. Mr.. Warner was
cheerful and gave no indication of ILL
ness. After the luncheon Mr.. Warner
started on walk.
Among his acquaintance was col
ored man. to whom Mr. Warner gave
books to encourage his desire to read
particularly books connected with the
history of the colored race upon which
he is an authority. Mr.. Warner prob
ably intended to call upon this man as
he was in the neighborhood of his
house when stricken. Probably feel
ing i'll he asked leave at n house to sit
down. then 10 lie down. requesting to
be called in ten minutes. When the
woman of the house went to call him
he was dead. News of his death spread
rapidly and was great shock to his
many friends.
