HALEYS COMET 81 YEARS AGO
Is Same Terrific Wanderer in Space
That Has Appeared Down
the Ages.

The world was up all night Septem-
Der II, 1910. Haley's comet blazed
across the roof of the world. This
"great comet" whose revolution Oc-
cupied 292 years, was first seen in Au-
gust, 1858. by gentleman in Altoona,
but Haley's comet, named after the
astronomer who calculated it's prog
depths of space that has appeared
down the ages, and to which success
sive names have been given-Bela'S
comet, Donati's comet, etc. From the
records of history it seems that the
comet appears to foretell some world
disaster. 1t appeared before the fall
of Jerusalem under Titus; in the reign
of Louis the Debonair, S37, and the
king died shortly after; it appeared
before the death of Caesar, 43 b. G.
Again it appeared three years after
the capture of Constantinople by the
Turks, 1856 1t appeared in 1861, just
before the Civil war. and in 1910, be-
fore the great war.
What is a comet? 1t is member
OF the solar republic-a hirsute star,
a yagabond orb, that travels at almost
incalculable speed, whose tail is fifty
five million miles long-whO approach
es the sun, not to be consumed in 1t,
but to draw from that radiant source
the energy necessary for its future
travels in the unknown abysses of the
armament. 1t has its own orbit which
It follows. What mind dare follow
