People who had the foresight to equip
themselves with pieces of smoked glass
got excellent results when they started
to study the eclipse of the sun Saturday
evening Until streak of clouds in the
western sky obscured both the sun and
the dark disc which moved slowly across
the face of Old Sol, the eclipse was
plainly visible, although its totality, un
der favorable conditions, could not be |
observed in this latitude. Smoked glasses |
were used by many to observe the prog |
ress of the eclipse, and among the more |
interested observers were those who |
climbed the heights on the east side of
the city to watch the sun until it dis |
appeared.

rotary of the state high court, c. o. F.,

with business demanding the preponder
ance of attention, and with most of the
features eliminated. Ho- ,
tel Barre will be the convention head
quarters.
