By mbans of this apparatus it is now easy to photograph all the bright lines on the sun. Previous® observa‘ions could be made only at times of. total eclipse. The reflector used gives an image of the sun 36 12 inches In dizmeter. A picture of the 100 inch reflector was shown and explained by Mr. Olcott. This reflector. is the §$45,000 gift of John D.
