Walton SOf Mercury are SO difficult to
make because of its nearness to the
sun that later observers may come 10
a different conclusion.
An Interesting thing to be nOteG
about Mercury is that this planet
shows phases analogous to those or
the sun the unillummed side of the
planet is turned toward Us, and We
have what might be tened new
Mercury; automatically this con-
figuration of earth. planet and sun is
called inferior conjunction OF Mer-
curry. The analogous CONFORMATION,
superior conjunction OF Mercury
shows the planet OF the other side OF
the sun from us: this would give us
the face of Mercury fully Illuminated
by sunlight and corresponds in a
way to full moon. Between these
two positions we can see different
ordinations OF phase.
Lunar OCCUPATIONS of Stars
The moon on the monthly round
of its orbital path about .he earth
continually interposes its Dulk be-
tween us and the stars which occupy
the projection CT its path on the
celestial sphere. For a short. time,
then, the star is Aciipsed from our
view. However, the number OF
bright stars which are thus subject
to lunar occultation or eclipse is very
small ard not extremely often do we
have chance TO observe this hap
pening to a star which is itself east
~ observable. This month two stars
of good magnitude will be occuited
and provide a spectacle for US which
is we'll worth observation.
On April att 1927 p. m. eastern
standard time. the moon will oblit-
crate from view the Atm magnitude
star Leonis. and on April II, at 2:53
O'Clock in the morning. the star Sig
mo Scorpions VIM receive the same
treatment. This latter is a third
magnitude star just west of tn.
bright star Antares. and the phenom-
enon will occur when the constella-
ton is aoout on the meridian, low
down in the southern sky. A scieil-
tific fact of no small Importance can
| be learned from these Cccultations:
namely, that the moon has no atmes-
! phere. for if il did the disappear

CITIZENS MEETING

The city hall was well filled on We'd
nesday night in response to a call is
sued by Mayor Bevi.le, to discuss GER
tain proposed improvements in the
city. The matters for discussion were,
the providing of a better fire fighting
equipment, additions to the town hall
to accommodate new and needed Offices
in case the city purchase the gas plant
ana the addition to be arranged for a
rest room, library room and quarters for
the commercial club, the paving of The
business portion of the town and the
placing OF cluster lights instead of the
present arc lights in the business cen
ter
Upon motion, Mayor Beville took the
chair and those present entered into a
discussion of the questions. The SEN
timent of the crowd seemed to favor
such a fire equipment as would pro-
vide additional safety and also reduce
the insurance rates. 1t was estimated
that about $4,000 would be necessary
for this. A discussion of the library
question brought-out suggestion from
Z. f. Fuller. that the town try for a
Carnegie library. Upon explanation
that this would require fund equaling
ten per cent Of the library cost, each
year for maintenance, those present
voted that the council enCeaNor TO Sc
cure 4 $4,000 library from the cele-
blated philanthropist. The paving mat
ter, which was explained by the mayor,
to be matter for the property holders
along the streets where paving was
suggested, brought forth number of
emphatic remarks favoring the move
ment. Others thought it best to be a
little cautious in the expenditure of so
much money at a time when the town
was to vote on the electric light and
gas purchase, and when a Sorely need
ed movement for good hotel had just
been started.
The result OF the netting were the
following recommendations to the
council.
That $4,000 for fire fighting equip
ment, $4,000 for addition to the city
hall be asked for and to make an at
tempt to secure the Carnegie library.
Mayor Beville explained that the
meeting was called solely to ascertain
the wishes of the people but that the
council would of necessity be left free
to act as instheir judgment was deemed
best.
