1t is a sun in very nearly the same con
 dition as our own sun. but almost m
 conceivably large and brighter For the apparent brililance of Arcturus does not arise from its nearness to us; in fact this star is so very far away that It's distance cannot be measured by any means which we at present possess. We know however that its light re- quires at least 100, and probably 209 or 300, years to come to us. and that 1t is many thousands of times brighter than our own sun. Could our sun be removed into the depths of space and placed beside Arcturus, 1t would appear to Us as faint, tenth magnitude star,

wholly invisible, even in small tele- scope
 There are no less than seven of the brightest stars of the sky which are so far away from us that their distance cannot be measured. One of these is the brightest star of Orion (at A, Fig ure D, but this, unlike Arcturus, Is in very different condition from our own sun. It has apparently proceeded much farther in it's development, and is ap- preaching the point of extinction.
 To the east of Bootes is the delicate arc of stars known as the Northern Crown, or Ariadnes Crown, of which tho star at D is sometimes called the Pearl of the Crown. This star is re- ceding from us. at the rate of 20 miles each second. Indeed. all of the stars Of the sky are in motion in all imagin- able directions, but so immensely far are they away from us that we can not usually perceive any change in their positions until after the lapse of hundreds, or even thousands, of years.

Thus, Arcturus, for example, which IS moving with wonderful swiftness, re- Guires more than 1000 years to alter its position In the heavens an amount so great as the apparent distance across the face of the moon.
 Throughout May and June occasional faint shooting stars may be seen to dart utward from Corona, but the display will at no time be a striking one, for the stream of particles from which this shower comes is very thin and scat tered one. The observer should also not fail to examine the wonderful star cluster at E, about one-third of the way from the star F to the star G.. Here there are 60,000 stars crowded to- gelher in a compact cluster. which may be seen with a small telescope, or even with the naked eye, though to bring out its full beauty large glass is required. A wider cluster will be found in Cancer at the point H, Fig ure 1.

 An examination of photographs of this region of the sky made on March 10 and Il showed that on the first date no star was in the exact position of the nova so bright as the 11.5 magni- tude.
