Camille II‘lammarion. French poet-
neti'ononier, made astronomy popu-

applause from the layman, some of
his ecrioumminded contemporaries
in the study of astronomy attacked
many of his theories as pure fancies.

the famous observatory at rJuvisy
and of the Astronomical Society of
France. His books include Marvel
of the Heavens, Popular Astronomy
and Mysterious Psychic Forces.
In October. 1920. when in his
78111 your. M. h‘lummarion married
Miss Gabrielle iienaudot. who col-
laborated with him in the writing of
some of his besbknovvn works.
Flammarion. when a boy nine
years old. witnesses the sun eclipsed
by the moon. Awod by the phenom-

astronomers “‘11. predicted this
event, were able to tell. Thereaf-

In his 15th your he wrote a book
on the origin of the world. but, in
his own words: "It luckily never
met a. publisher."
He entered the famous Parts Ob-
servatory and became an assistant
astronomer to Le \‘crrlcr, and wrote
his first published book at 19 years
of ago. it was translated at once in~
to almost every language.
He soon assumed direction of the

five years.
During the Franco-Prussian war
in 1871 he demonstrated the practi-
cal application of his knowledge of
astronomy and tmscopel. Hidden in
an observatory at. Pansy. as captain
of a. special corps. he commissioned
other astronomers to. assist him in
study or the Prussian troops banked
around Paris.

All overtures for public office af-
ter the war were refused by Flam-
marion. He devoted himself to
studying double and multiple stare,
their colors and proper motions and
sun-spots. the branches of the sci-
ence in which he specialized.
Most of his great achievements
during the latter part. of his life were
accomplished in his observatory at
historic Juvisy. It was called the
half way house of kings and cour~

the news of the fall of Paris and
from here he departed to Fon-
