Moon in Eclipse Tonight.
With the moon almost due
south and high in the sky, a total
clipse will be seen tonight, beginning
at 1*03 o'clock, totality
being reached at 2:23. From that
time until 3 ft)5 the moon will be
in total -darkness.
The eclipse begins at 11:57
when the'edge of the moon enters
the penumbra, a sort of half shadov
of the earth, and emerges from
the ? penumbra at 4:32. The entrance
of fhe moon into- the pcnbmbral
'shadow, however, is difficult
to observe.* The moon will
begin to/show a Malice cut, out"
of the eastern edge shortly after I
o'clock tonight and by 2:23 the
entire surface of the moon will
appeal dark. Then the western
edge of# the moon will show a
slight crescent of light that will
gradually spread until it has passed
4ujt of the umbra.
Illuming the total eclipse the
moon is likely to appear coppercolored
and not entirely dark.

EditorFoit Mill Times:
Now that the city officials of
Fort Mill have donated a lot in
New Unity cemetery for the burital
of onr dead soldiers who were
killed in France, would it not be
the proper time to start a fund
tp erect suitable memorial to
these brave boys who made IJe
supreme sacrifice lor their country?
The citizens of Fort Mill
sho\ild begin this fund right now,
while the deeds of the soldiers arc
fresh in mind, and every one
should contribute what he can to
the fund. At all of our national
cemeteries the lots are beautifully
kept and there is no reason why
the city of Fort Mill cannot make
the soldier plot the most beautiful
in the cemetery. It is up to the
people of today to erect a tnemorial
to our soldier dead ami not
let the next generation do our
ilnjty for us. Fort Mill Citizen.

An error crept into the columns
of The Times last week in
the statement that "Bud" Hunter
had been fined $100 by Magistrate
J. R. Hal ie for carrying con- I
cealod weapons. There was no
such charge against Mr. Hunter
in the magisjrate's court. The
rimes regrets the mistake for two
reasons?it is the purpose of this
in; per to print in its news column*facts
only and because it did not
ivish to do Mr. Hunter an injus
