NATIONAL PRIDE AS AN ANTlDOTE FOR THE Il

Our societies of Sons and Daughters

DANES are excellent antidotes for this

stimulus toward national pride.

Of seeming to be other than ~ut-and-O

low the equator. far down toward the
south. The sun is larger than the earth
ard very distant, and its rays fall parallel
all over that half Of the globe which
faces them. but the moon is smaller than
the earth and comparatively near, and so
Its rays are not parallel everywhere.
Now. you can see at a glance that from

For this reason the light OF the full

WONDERS OF ASTRONOMY; WHY MOONLIGHT IS

cres' OF a hill eagerly shifting the keen air
and watching a farmyard lying cozily in

Now, in midwinter the sun il low. about
