For man to see two arc lights on
the west end of Norfolk avenue on
these clear nights is no sign that he
has been over friendly with Bacchus;
It may be only Venus that is troubling
him, for Venus Is the evening star now
and is said to be more brilliant as
viewed from the earth than it has
been in $50 years.
Venus, one of the nearest planets to
the earth is always one of the most
brilliant of the stars, but at this par.
ticular time 1t is visible even in broad
daylight II conditions are favorable.
II appears now above the horizon be.
fore noon and for several hours OF the
evening is visible as a brilliant star.
To residents of the city 1t is visible
to the southwest Of the main part of
the city, and has been the cause of
much comment. 1t is often mistaken
for the arc light on the hill, If the
light is not burning, and appears like
a second arc light If the real one is in
use.
