STAR GAZING.
The Study Of the Consultations as a
Pastine,

The Study Of the Consultations as
Pastime.
Probably every reader has often nd.
mircd the beauty Of starlight night
A little careful observation ON such
night will show that the brighter stars
may be divided into groups or "constel.
lations," as the astronomers call them.
most of which ure known by the
natnes Of animals or legendary per.
sons. such for example as 1.-The Great
Bear" 1.-THE Swan" Hercules" IAN.
dromeda." etc. The easiest method Of
learning these consultations is from
some one already acquainted with
them. but If the beginner is not fortu.
nate enough to know any such person
the majority can be learned from any
cheap star maps such as are sometimes
contained III almanacs.
Now. If the budding astronomer will
notice the position of any Of these
groups or consultations at particu-
lar hour of any night and then look a
few hours afterward he will see that
during the interval the stars which up.
peared low down In the east have risen
to the south in somewhat similar
manner to the apparent motion OF the
sun and moon, while closer attention
OH several evenings will show a circu.
lar or rotary movement around the
north pole of the heavens. the motion
being the opposite way to the hands of
clock.
Near the north pole is bright star
called the pole star" This star is
easily found when the observer has
once noted the seven bright stars of
the "Great Bear" the two outer stars
Of the four forming the square"

directly to the Pole star. This majes-
tic movement of the stars around the
pole of the heavens is most sublime

ODD JOBS ON WARsHlPs.
Many Ways For the Bluejackets to
Make Extra Money!

S'.~lSS'sSsS
Make Extra Money.
The possible methods Of making ex.
ira money on shipboard are manifold.
''Tailorizing" Is one or the most prof.
liable. While a ships tailor is detailed
TO most OF our ships. his duties are
limited to making necessary altera.
tons in the uniforms which are issued
to the members of the crew. Many
enlisted men own sewing machines
upon which they do repair work, and
they also do odd Jobs for officers, such
as pressing and cleaning. A handy
man with the needle can also make a
handsome sum by doing fancy work
Some of the most delicate embroidery
work has been done by sailormen.
The ships barber also makes a com.
Portable living In addition to his regu.
lar pay, and the distribution Of prizes
at target practice enriches the Golfers
of the gun crew by considerable
sum. Men who are detailed to duty
on board submarine boats are allowed
an additional IS a month and besides
81 day for every day the boat is
submerged. Bluejackets detailed as
signalmen. as cockswains of power
boats or In charge of holds are al.
lowed extra pay. A crew messnan re-.
ceives S. month for performing that
somewhat mental function. and the
man who is not ashamed to "take in
washing" can easily double his navy
pay. Every bluejacket is expected to
perform the laundering himself. but
there are always men who prefer to
pay for having the service done.
One of the novel methods of earning
an honest penny is for man with a
descriptive knack-usually a yeoman-
to prepare an interesting letter upon
the cruise of the ship or some of the
strange ports visited. the honors paid
the vessel. the entertainments offered
and describing the customs of the In.
habitants. These letters are manifold.
ed and sold to the members Of the
crew for so cents to 81 copy-and
usually cheap at that. The parents or
relatives of the sailor boy thus are
kept informed of his adventures and
experiences and he Is relieved Of q
task that is irksome to most boys
