ANYHOW WE GOT SYZYGY

That's the worst OF this comet bust
ness. II has shattered the popular
faith In astronomers. When no two
OF the elect agree as touching any one
particular point, what are we to
think?
But there Is one thing at least.
that Halley's comet left US. That IL q
renewed. revived and renovated inter
est In syzygy. Let us be thankful for
this small legacy.
"Syzygy" used to be In the list CT
words pasted in the back OF the
teachers spelling book. as a supple
mentary supply TO be used when IL
came about time TO bring the spelling
school to a close. When the list was
sprung the contending lines were
ihinned as a Calling gun might thin
q Grecian phalanx. Syzygy was an
esoteric word then. We never
dreamed that 1t really meant anything.
Now. thanks to the comet, We know
what II means. II means-just a mo-
ment. while we refer to the encyclo-
pedia once more
1t means "the conjunction or oppo-
sition OF a planet with the sun, or OF
any two OF the heavenly bodies" It
might be well to add that "epirrhe-
matte syzygy" (prosody) means "the
last four parts of the parabasis-that
Is. the strophe or ode. epirrhema, an
tistrophe or antode, and antepirrhema.
the choric as distinguished from the
monodic part OF the parabasis." Also
"syzygetic" means pertaining TO q
linear relation-that is. to a polynom-
ial linear In the variables."
1t is profoundly satisfying to know
this II the comet had not passed we
might never have known. So. after
all, the comets visit has not been I'm
vain.
