 Have an Inning
By Condo.

Pine Bluff students of Sunday night astronomy" and many others who sometimes gaze at the Heavens and speculate on the richness of the moon and the fullness thereof, will, if they mind their business-that is about the moon and the stars-he rewarded with an eclipse of the moon tonight, according to real as- trcnomers who have become familiar enough with women to tell just what the lady in the moon is going to do. and when she is going to do it.
 J. B. Blagden. Memphis astrono- mer, is discussing the eclipse. gave out the following Illuminating infor- nation which will be readily grasped:
 "The partial phase begins 30 min utes before the moon rises, but the moon will be we'll above the horizon when the total pphase begins, at 7:15 p. m. The total phase ends at 8:27 p m. and the eclipse ends at e:41 D. m.
 "On May 27 there will be a partial eclipse of the sun, but it will not be visible on this continent. Eclipses usually go in pairs. When there is an eclipse of the moon there is all ways an eclipse of the sun, either at the preceding or following new moon, tho they both may not be visible at always true, there may be an eclipse of the sun without an eclipse of the moon, either at the preceding or following full moon"

 There Is perhaps no way of aScer taning the number of deaths or serl ous dlsablements which result from lack of proper safeguards or prompt emergency treatment IL Is safe to as sert they number thousands daily. There can be no doubt that the appli- cation of First Aid methods to each case would immeasurably tighten the countrys toll of suffering and death.
 The dissemination of First Aid train Ing an information has already pro duced farreaching and beneficial in duenee In the prevention of accidents on railroads in mines and in great in dustria concerns.
 The benefit of widespread knOw!- edge If First Aid in the event of 8 great | d.-aSter. such as train wreck, an explosion an earthquake, etc, Is obvious taymen who have had First Aid training can render efficient as sisianre Many lives may depend upon such ea"f#ency care.
