Bewildered hens and roosters take to their roosts and owls open Yheir eyes in the forests. Men’s faces take on a livid, un- earthly hue. Countrymen cease plowing and until the end of their lives tell with awe of a certain “Black, Saturday” or “Murk Mon- day.” Pious Hindoos destroy all food in their hom as having been made unclean, The Chinese beat drums and discharge firecrackers to rescue the sun from the devouring dragon. Savages grovel and bewail the loss of their god and their life’s source. They blow trumpets and shout prayers. Some bury torches to save the vital spark, and others fire arrows skyward to drive off the sun’s attacker. BEHEADED FOR FAILING TO PREDICT ECLIPSE Behold the Mongol Emperor Chung K’ang beheading his court astronom- ers, Ho and Hsi. They were charged with getting drunk and failing to predict the eclipse of Oct. 22, 2136 B. G. Consequently proper precau- tions could not be taken nor cere- monial rites performed. Chaldean wise men on tablets of the “saros” or 18-year cycle in which eclipses repeat them- selves—knowledge which ‘ience 3000 years later can only confirm. The early Romans see them as di- vine portents and punish for bla: phemy anyone who says they are of natural causation, Hebrew prophets give them as signs to their people, saying, “I will make the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth.in the clear day.” —, The Greek-SStronomer, Thales of Miletus, predicts an eclipse for the year 585 B. C. It occurs while the Medes and Lydians are in battle, and Herodotus writes that “when they. saw day turned into night, they ceased from fighting and both sides were desirous of peace.” , Behold man ever bowing to this grandeur. He connects it ‘with plagues, earthquakes, persecutions. He sees significance in its appear- ance when Romulus is dying, when the invading army of Xerxes ap- proaches the Hellespont, when Cae- sar cross the Rubison. The bri liant Pericles calms the fears of his navy and pushes on to fight the ene- mies of Athens in spite of an eclipse.

The French astronom- ssen during the siege of Paris in 1870 poes up in a balloon during an eclipse, seizing the double chance to escape and to study the corona above the clouds. So appears the moon-shadowed earth from the heavens. There, the learned Chaldeans. and Egyptians copying the darkened sun and its corona into their winged circle, sym- bolic of divinity.
