The eclipse of September 10 is now
over, of course: that is, the three
minutes and thirty-seyen seconds or
less, during which the sun was totally
eclipsed as explained last month are
gone forever. Scientific expeditions
made for the purpose of studying the
eclipse were probably greater in num-
Der than in any previous eclipse.
These We're chiefly from American

many. Weather conditions studied
carefully in advance gave unusual
promise of clear weather. In fact.
clear weather at some places seemed
a certainty. and this doubtless in
duced many to plan expeditions who
would not have done so under less
promising conditions Unfortunately
the unexpected happened, and many
were disappointed, but not all, for, rs
q rule, astronomers do not put all
their eggs in one basket; they scat
ter, so as to increase the chances
that all will not fail. Those who had
cloudy weather. as did most OF those
located in California. have nothing to
show for their months of careful
preparation and expense The results
of those who had clear weather are
enhanced in value. The unfortunate
astronomers, we are told, did not be-
moan their fate. but sang college
songs during the eclipse time. The
fortunate astronomers were very busy
manipulating their instruments for
securing Photographic records of
what occurred. So busy were they
that they saw little more of the

THE STARRY. SKIES IN OCTOBER.
By Prof Q University of Pennsylvania.

Because OF the scarcity Of the bright
er stars the October skies are less
conspicuous than those of any other
month of the year. Usually some of
the planets are visible. This year
only one planet lies in the region of
the map, Figure 1. That one, Uranus,
is too faint to be seen with the naked
eye. OF the other planets, Venus.
Mars and Saturn are too close to the
sun to be seen; Jupiter in Libra may
be seen very low in the southeast In
the evening twilight; Mercury may
Dc seen in the east in the morning
twilight for a few days about Octo-
per IL; the sun passes Saturn Oc-

ticularly at the Solar Observatory at
Mount Wilson. Calf, which has
contributed much to our knowledge
of the sun. But we find that the
bright circular disk which we ordi-
narily call the sun is but part of
the sun. When the moon hides this
bright disc which astronomers call
the photosphere. II is found TO be
surrounded by large patch of light
often larger than the photosphere and
irregular in outline. This part is
called the corona. Although very brill
liant at the time of an eclipse. il is
yet so much fainter than the circular
sun that we have no means of seeing
1t or studying 1t satisfactorily except
during these brief intervals OF eclipse
when the brilliance of the photo
sphere, which ordinarily browns out
the corona. is not present.
The corona is the chief object of
study during eclipses, and afterward
on the plates. 1t is still largely a
mystery. Its shape varies greatly
from one eclipse TO another. This
shape seems to bear relation to the
number of spots on the sun. Figure 2
shows the corona during the eclipse
of 1871 near sunspot maximum. In
this case the corona, although ir-
regular. yet extends about the same
distance from the sun in all direc-
tons. Figure shows that of 1900
near sunspot minimum. In this
case the corona Is very irregular and
unsymmetrical. The eclipse of this
year Is also near minimum of sun
spots and is irregular. In each figure
the magnetic poles of the sun are
marked by brushes or threads of
light. The curvature of such threads
is being carefully studied with the
view of learning more about the mag
netism of the sun. The sun rotates
in about twenty-five days. Does the
Corona rotate with it? We are trying
to find out. The corona contains a
substance or substances unknown on
the earth. We desire to know more
about them. In what state is the

eclipse which they went to observe
than those at home far away. The few
precious seconds We're crammed full
of activity.
The photographs secured were taken
back to the observatories and there
studied with care, and at such time
and length as may be desired. Even
many years later. when some new
problems may arise In which it is
desirable to know what happened
during this eclipse, the plates may
be examined anew. In this sense the
time of the eclipse is not over, and
never will be over as long as the
plates endure.
1t may seem strange that we try to
study the sun. at the. time of an
eclipse when it is hidden by the moon
rather than at other times. The sun
is studied carefully at all times, par

distances. Although we know that
the other stars are not just like the
sun, they are enough like 1t to make
any knowledge we may gain regard
ing the sun helpful in interpreting
the facts of observation regarding
other stars.
What information will be added by
the study of the plates from this
is no outstanding problem, as was the
case in 1922. but more information is
desired on many problems. The re-
suits will be known only after the
plates have been examined and meas
ured carefully, task requiring
months. And the plates may con-
tribute to some new investigation on
the remote future.

that 1t has given out energy at about

Why should we be at the mercy of

Simply because we do not know how
