1t was strong enough to rule the night
with all the evil spirits and lurkers in the
blackness. Furthermore, the moon at
certain seasons appeared in the day sky.
If it was powerful enough to ride the
heavens both day and night while the
sun could only ride them during the day,
it followed that the moon must be strong
ef than the sun. And therefore as the
Chaldeans regarded all the strong deities
as masculine they figured that the moon
must be god and not a goddess.
Services were held regularly every
Sunday at the moon gods temple. Their
Sabbaths fell upon the nights of the new
moon, the first quarter, the full moon
and the last quarter. The first three
services were joyous, the last sorrowful
one as BETTING the waning brilliancy of
the god.
There were from time to time what
might be called special services with spe-
cial sacrifices and rites and the temple
itself was always open day and night to
the wOrshippers.
But these worshippers did not come to
receive spiritual counsel nor wise and
holy guidance through some crisis, nor
did they come to confess or do penance
for their sins or to pray for their dead
or to contemplate their own hereafter.

choir in the old moon gods temple which
has come down to us and has been trans
lated from the brick slabs which took the
place then of our modern, neat, choral
hymnals
In reading this over it will be readily
seen just why the Chaldeans conceived
the moon to be masculine and not fem
mime and why they thought he was so
powerful. 1t has been translated in part
thus:
o, lord, chief of the gods who on earth
and in heaven alone is exalted.
Father Nannar, lord Of increase, chief of
the gods,
Father Nannar, lord of Ur, chief of the
gods,
Father Nannar, who passes along in great
majesty!
In heaven who is exalted? Thou alone
art exalted.
On earth who is exalted? Thou alone
art exalted.
Thy strong command on high, like a
storm in the darkness, passes along,
and nourishment streams forth.
When thy strong command is established
on the earth, vegetation sprouts
forth.
Thy strong command stretches over

= If they had done so the priests of the
moon god could not have helped them
any.
For in the first place, they did not be-
lieve in any hereafter of rewards and
punishments as we do. They recognized
that there was something in man that
lived on after death. But good and bad,
rich and poor alike went to one place
a huge, dark country presided over by
the Lord of Death where the souls
wandered about cold and hungry and
twittering like birds.
If this was so, there was, of course,
no use in praying for the dead or think
ing anything about so unpleasant here
after which they we're bound to get no
matter what they did or didn't do.
This, naturally, made them exceeding
ly anxious to get all the enjoyment and
comfort that they could out of this world.
Therefore they went to the temple be-
tween services to have their fortunes
told
This leads up to the fact that the
moon gods temple was in effect an
astronomical observatory. Besides being
astronomers the priests of Nannar were
astrologers. They believed and taught
that the stars ruled the destinies of all
men. They therefore cast the horo-
scopes of the worshippers and told them
whether they were going to be found
out or not, whether the next year was

hold property in their own names and en-
gage in commercial undertakings. To
secure such a position, woman had to
take VOWS, by which she became member
of what Were called votaries.
If she desired to do so, she could leave
the community house of the votary and
contract a form of marriage. But here
her penalties began to appear.
Even when she was married, votary
was still obliged to remain virgin and,
should her husband desire children. she
could not have them herself. She must
provide him with a substitute!
Nevertheless, in spite of this disability,
she was secured in her position as head of
the household The substitute, though she
might have children, was always the wife's
inferior, and should she attempt to put
herself on level with the wife, the lat
ter could brand her and put her with the
female slaves.
A very high standard of social morality
was expected from these votaries and
severe penalties were imposed for it's in
fringement.
What other astonishing revelations of
this worship in the ancient city of Ur of
the Chaldeans science will bring to light
is fascinating thing to consider.

struct. They were even called for by the
Egyptians. There seems to be no doubt
that they did have an extraordinary
science and particularly a deep and
curious knowledge of the principles and
powers of light and the effects of colors
upon the health of mind and body-a lost
Science, some of whose secrets are just be-
ginning to be fe-discovered.
- But what was a Sunday service like in
this old temple of the moon god? And
why did the Chaldeans think of the moon
as masculine and a god when almost all
other ancient races held it to be feminine
and a goddess. Even the popular song
writers of to-day call it Lady Moonf
. Answering the last question first, the
Chaldeans were, as has been said,
singularly advanced astronomers. They
knew all about the moons influence on
the tides, and they believed, as do many
farmers to-day, that it affects and actu-
ally governs the growth of vegetation
they also thought that it controlled the
rain. Even to-day we speak of "wet
moons" and "dry moons"
a But more than that the moon seemed
to them to have more power than the
SUM- The sun had to go down into the
land of darkness every night to sleep
and be reborn. But the moon did not.

divorced or go into business and so on.
All this the priests told them, for a
consideration. When the stars left the
issue undecided, the priests sold charms
or made prayers to Nahnar to bring it
about favorably to the petitioner.
When the temple was opened for the
regular Sunday services the congregation
f1ocked into an enormous, high-ceilinged
room on whose walls were painted and
carved terrifying monsters, symbolizations
of consultations or groupings of stars,
weird, half human, half animal and
winged figures and astonishing and, what
would be to us to-day, shocking objects
representing certain attributes and func-
ti0ns of the god There were no com
Portable pews or seats The congrega-
ton we're either standing up or flat on

measures such as kneeling.
They had a choir, just as we have. 1t
was a large and interesting choir made
up of the daughters of the finest, richest
Chaldean families. Sometimes a girl of
extraordinary beauty and voice could get
into it, but the job was such an honor
able one that usually there was little room
for anyone who could not pay well.

meadows and heights, and life is in
creased.
Thy strong command produces right and
proclaims justice to mankind.
Thy strong command, through the distant
heavens and the wide earth, extends
to whatever there is.
Thy strong command, who can grasp it?
Who can rival it?
O, King of Kings, who has no judge SUI
perior to him, whose divinity Is not
surpassed BY any other! .
At these services the sacrifices consisted
of burnt offerings of animals and flowers
and fruits. From time to time, however,
it would seem that now and then special
popular services were held when human
being, either fair maiden of unblem-
ished ancestry or youth, was sacrificed.
And it appears certain from fragments
of the ancient brick tablets on which the
ChaIdeans, like the Babylonians, wrote
and also from some legends--that human
sacrifice played part In one very curious
ceremony which was carried on at the be-
ginning of the seasons, four times year.
This latter ceremony was an extraordi-
narily sacred one. Only the highest
priests of Chaldea and of Ur, the king
and his greatest generals and, now and
tnon, .FISIJIHS Kings HIGH priests VI SCu-
erals were allowed to take part in it.
According to the vague descriptions
that exist, there was "holy of holies," a
room held sacred to the presence of the
moon god himself and in which some
thing of him was supposed to dwell at
all times. There was a shaft in the wall
fitted, it would seem, with mirrors ar
ranged much on the principle Of the re-
tracing telescope of to-day. There was
an empty throne which faced the inner
end Of this shaft or rude telescope. When
the fun moon was in direct line with
the outer opening of the shaft, its image
was taken up by the little mirrors and
reflected on the back of the throne. This
back was apparently made of some re-
flecting material, cunningly shaped and
probably with some powers of reflection
and magnifcation that we do not now
understand.

AT any rate, When
the m DON s h on e
through the shaft its
image was cast by the
mirrors on the back
of the throne which
then became luminous
and appeared to be
filed with a great
globe of moonlight.
This effect was, no
doubt, accumulated by
other tricks and de-
vices which the Chal-
deans had worked out
in their minute study
of light.
When the moon
then literally ''took
his seat on his throne
in his holy of holes"
the sacrifice of a vir-
gin was made at the
altar close beside the
throne itself. After
the girl had been slain
her brain, heart, liver
and several other or
gans were examined
for omens or signs
which were supposed
to reveal infallible
secret rulings of the
moon god upon the
destinies of Chaldea,
its great ones, it's
friends, its enemies
and the destinies of
the great ones from
other countries who
had been asked to the
ceremony.
This cruel and
bloody rite was not,
however, used gener-
ally, and it is likely
that it, occurred, even
n t h e =" h ly Of
holies," not more than
once a year.
There was another
very r e m a r k a b | e
phase of the religious
life at Ur. Unmar-
ried women of the
upper class were I'M
der certain circum-
