The third candidate, Hugh Magill, who filed papers today as an independ- ent, still has his troubles to look for- ward to.

Entry of Mr. Magill into the cam- | paign as an independent Republican, backed by prominent persons who ob- Jject to Col.

LOS ANGELES, October 2.—For the first time in its 52 years of exist- ence the Women's Christian Temper- ance Unfon, which has just concluded its annual convention here, has adopt- ed a “platform,” going before the country as a political element with all the forms and system of a political organization. The ‘“resolutions” of other years were more or less connected with everything encompassed within the scope of W. C. T. U. work, from infant class activities to the main idea of making the world as dry as Kansas, but this year, with a new administra- tion, greatest emphasis is placed on the possibility of 600,000 W. C. T. U. women being a vital element in poli- tics. See Prosperity in Dry Law. The platform is confined almost ex- clusively to the wet-dry issue, credit- ing the prosperity of the country al- most entirely to national prohibition. The re-elected presidént, Mrs. Ella A. Boole of Brooklyn, is a woman of political prominence. Her followers claim for her the distinction of having received the greatest number of votes ever cast for any woman in the>world | when she ran for the Senate against James Wadsworth in New York six years ago. Mrs. Boole and her ‘cabinet” be- lieve that the next presidential elec- tion will hinge to a greater measure on the liquor issue. Some of them belfeve it will be exclusively a fight for and against prohibition. They are planning for their greatest campaign, and their speakers are pledging the rganization not to give up the fight until wet sentiment dis- appears entirely. By “this time"” they refer to the slackening of effort noticeable after the Volstead act was passed. Mrs. Boole declares the organization will not suport for the presidenc: any man with the slightest wet ting One Hundred Baby Grands In One Gigantic Purchase, | improper to give the Publick an Ac- D. 0, OCTOBER 3, 1926—PART 1 BRITAIN PREPARES FOR FIRST TOTAL SUN ECLIPSE SINCE 1724 Astronomers Already Making Plans for Event on June 29, Next, the Last for at Least Another 200 Years. is even less than that of the eclipse that crossed New England on Janu- ary 24, 1925, for the English totality lasts about 25 seconds.

The eclipse of next year occurs on June 29 and, for observers in Eng- land, begins shortly after the sun has risen. Totality, when the moon com- pletely obscures the sun, occurs about 5:30 am.

Observers Going to Norway. Most of the astronomers who ob- serve the eclipse for scientific pur- poses will probably go to Norway to take advantage of the extra length of totality, but in England there prob- ably wili be a large number of ob- servers. Prof. Turner requests the public to | co-operate in the observation of the eclipse by noting as precisely as pos- sible the times of beginning and end of totality, when the sun’s corona is 21 visible, and also noting what stary are visible around the sun. Unfortunately, clear weather at the time of the eclipse is not assured, but, says Prof. Turner, “every one ought to go ahead just as though fine weather were assured. During the war astronomers felt that they ought to observe the eclipse of 1919 for the Einstein effect, and they went ahead just as though the war were certain to be over in time, though it looked quite hopeless. That is the only sonable way." peaigs Electric lights for railway passenger cars and engines are to be introduced into India. The Roof Over Your Head —must be perfect to protect your home.
