Pickering, of Harvard, at the Harvard astronomical station at Mandeville, Jamaica. The thickness of the rings of Saturn is a matter which has long attracted the attention of astronomers. This plan et is surrounded by what appears to be a single flat ring of exceeding thin- ness. Through a larger telescope this is seen to be in reality three concen- tric rings. Every sixteen years or so the earth passes through the plane of these rings, which are then in a position edgewise to the earth. So thin are they that for a while they disappear and cannot be seen until the earth moves out of their plane. This phe- nomonon occured on November 22 and will occur again om February 22 of this yvear. After which there will be no opportunity of observing it again for sixteen years. Prof. Pickering reports that he ob- tained the rings just before and aftes | the November transit, and found the : best ever presented by the club. which ' | Greth, Miss Myrtle McCord ; director, Al-| ed within walking distance went afoot. At six o'clock the good things in the boxes were brought out and groups sprinkled over the meadows sat down to an evening meal in the cool out of doors. Several of the Italian families with everyvone thoroughly enjoyed the few hours spent in the open and many ex- pressed the hope that this would not be the last picnic. _—_— CONCERT PROGEAM DELIGHTS NORWICH TOWN AUDIENCE A large and enthusiastic audience heard with delight the concert given Friday evening at the Norwich Town chapel by the Crescent Mandolin club.

This type of opal is found in a small area in New South Wales near the Queensland border. The district where the finest gems are found is known as Lightening Ridge. This district is about 500 miles from Sydney and lht'[ nearest base of supplies for the opi miners is at Collarendrbri or at Wa gett. This field was discovered in 190 the opal is found at a depth of five to fifty feet, the locating of an opal| bed is almost entirely a matter of luck. The only guide toward getting a good place is in noticeingth e pres-| ence of “potch” on the surface of the ground. This potch is a soft black or brown opalized substance without com- mercial value. The opal usually occurs in seams of very hard rock or in geo- delike nodules. When this district was first opened the miners usually sold their black etones in the rough at so much an ounce. Later they had them faced or even polished and if it hap- pened to be an unblemished specimen of some size they made a killing, but of ten an apparently fine specimen would develope into a stone with sand-shots or other blemishes and prove unsal- able. Flawless black opals of good size are not only rare but are becaming in- creasingly valuable. The black opal is a rare form of hydrated silica in a porodine condition. The wonderful lus- tre is caused by its having experienc- ed unequal contractions in varying di- rections and being amorphose, its po- larization is similar to that of a dou- bly refracting body. The unique beauty of the hlack opal comes from the fact that the prisma- tic colors with all their scintillating glory occur in the background of som- bre blue, so that you get the effects of the flashing of the Northern lights against a velvet blue-black sky. The real black opals vary from Nile| green to Crater Lake blue, with all the varying shades between, and in its heart are flame-like flashes of hidden fire.
