Reykjavik, Iceland.—American na val officers who visited Ireland In con nection with the globe-enclrcllng flight of the American aviators, were greatly Interested in the navigation methods of the old vikings who, more than 1,000 years ago, sailed their little ves sels, without compasses or other In struments, across the storm-beaten north Atlantic to Iceland, Greenland and even the shores of North Amer ica. Even today the charts of thee* we ter« ars largely based on observations and soundings made by whalers and th« early explorers, scores of years ago, and the few large vessels that today visit these seas proceed with the utmost caution. Balling directions, the “Bible of the Sea," are carefully consulted, and when new soundings are made the results are sent to the different gov ernments for Incorporation In the charts. But when Leif Ericson and the other adventurous old Norsemen of more than ten centuries ago set out on their dangerous voyages there were no charts, and the stars were the only directional guide«. The observations they made were for centuries the only sailing direc tions, and were chanted, in the form of sagas, as the galleys swept over the rough seas. Borne of these sagas exist today, and old pilots at Reykjavik are familiar with the lore they contain. One of these, describing the journey from Norway to Greenland, not only takes account of the physical features to be watched for, but advises the navigators to keep a loekout for the birds and whales that mark the ap- proachos to the Icelandic coast. A naval officer who made a study of this route found it was almost a per fect great-circle, or shortest sailing route, worked out without any scien tific aids by navigators who probably could neither read nor write.
