Sigma 470, otherwise known as 32 Eridani, is a superb object on account of the colors of its components, the larger star being a rich topaz and the smaller an ultramarine; while the difference in magnitude is not as great as in many of the colored doubles.
The lady Petronilla had been wont to dine and sup in dignified publicity, seated on the sigma, in the room which had seen so many festivals, together with her male relatives and any guest who might be at the villa; in her presence, no man permitted himself the recumbent attitude, which indeed had been unusual save among the effeminate. But Aurelia and her companion took their meals apart.
He doesn't know us, and won't suspect anything. We'll go this afternoon, right after school!" "But there's a meeting of the Sigma Sigma Society this afternoon," Cynthia remonstrated, "and they're going to give that little play. I'm crazy to see it!" "I don't care!" cried Joyce, recklessly. "What's the meeting of an old literary society compared to an important thing like this?"
While Grace had listened to Eleanor, she had realized that the old whimsical, temperamental Eleanor was passing, and an entirely different girl was endeavoring to take her place. Grace exulted in her heart and dreamed great things for the Phi Sigma Tau when it should be restored to its original number of members.
The magnitudes are five and seven, distance 6.7", p. 348°. The star gamma, of magnitude two and a half, has a tenth-magnitude companion, distant 51", p. 238°. Sigma 516, also called 39 Eridani, consists of two stars of magnitudes six and nine, distance 6.4", p. 150°; colors, yellow and blue. The supposed binary character of this star has not yet been established.
However we look at them, there is an appearance of association among these stars, shining with their contrasted colors and their various degrees of brilliance, which is significant of the diversity of conditions and circumstances under which the suns and worlds beyond the solar walk exist. From sigma let us drop down to see the wonders of Orion's Sword displayed just beneath.
'iota' stands for 'Jesus, 'chi' for 'Christ, 'theta' and 'gamma' for 'the Son of God, and 'sigma' for 'Saviour, so that the fish symbolizes under its name 'iota chi theta gamma sigma, 'Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Saviour." "What means this picture that I see so often a ship and a huge sea monster?" "That is Jonah, a prophet of God, of whom as yet you are ignorant."
A direct slap in the face could scarcely have conveyed greater insult than did that one insolent glance. The principal was at a loss as to its import. She wisely decided to ignore it, but stored it up in her memory for future reference. The sorority that Eleanor had mentioned in her letter to the Phi Sigma Tau, was now in full flower.
It's unaccountable that there should be so much music in a sophomore or maybe that's a fraternity affair Sigma Chi or Delta Tau or Deke. Or mayhap those lads wear a "Fiji" pin on their waistcoats; I seem to recall spring hay-rides as an expression of "Fiji" spirit in my own days at Madison, when I myself was that particular blithe Hellenist with the guitar, and scornful of all Barbarians!
Grace thought "Phi Sigma Tau" would sound well. Aside from the social part, their chief object would be to keep a watchful eye open for girls in school who needed assistance of any sort. Mrs. Gray's anxiety over Eleanor Savell had set the bee in Grace's bonnet buzzing, and now her plans were practically perfected.
