ECLIP8E OF THE MOON ON LIBRARY HILL Sky searchers and moon gazers gathered in great crowds in re- sponse to the library 's Invitation to observe the evening skies as Its guests on Oct. 6. Primarily the affair was arranged tor the young people of Centerville from the sixth grade on, but parents were , bidden too and by 7:30 , the hilltop ; was gay with the shouts and < laughter of children, hushed now and then by the soberer voices of their elders. Thanks to the thoughttulness of a good neighbor a telescope was set up for the evening. To many of the children this was their first experience in looking through a glass at the evening skies, to say nothing of a moon in total eclipse. Just before the line began to form to look through the telescope, Mr. Connor of the High School staff , gathered everybody into the library to tell the eager audience some- thing about the moon, why we do not have an eclipse every month and some of the physical facts about the moon which today's scientist knows. Following a ques- tion and answer period, the doors 1 opened again and the shadowy MU became an observatory for the night watchers. However much the young people romped and played at Intervals through the evening, the moon gazing line forming in front of the telescope was a comparatively sober one. The night was obliging- ly clear so that everybody really had reserved seats at this specta- cle in the heavens. Before the brilliant Jupiter far to the south had set behind the village elms, the glass was turned on to this ' sparkling planet and many were able to see Its moons very clearly. Some of the comments made by the boys and girls should be re- | corded, They varied from a kind ol awed "oh, gee", to "gee whiz, it looks like a baked apple", to "well , it could be made of green cheese," to the eight year old who had no words to express what he saw. Again and again the lines formed to get still another look at the moon till the village clock chimed ' 10 and, though the eclipse was not officially over, it was bed-time for Centerville. . Most gratifying of all was the presence of so many families, com- ing together to witness one of na- ture's miracles. Some time, some- where, long years from now, when the library, the spectators, the actual event have been long since forgotten, some adult who was a child on thlB night of Nov. 6, 1949, will look up into the skies and re- saw the starry armament through member the evening when he first a glass. Two books dealing with sky searchers are worth anyone's win- ter reading. One is a hook about the boyhood and life of Galileo, a sort of Actionized biography, called the "Star-Gazer", as fine a book for the young scientist as can be found. The other is the recent "Sweeper of the Skies", based on the life of Maria Mitchell , our ilrsl American woman astronomer.
