ferent heights in the sky. In De-
cember the fdll moon "rides high"
1t attails a greater height in tle
sky at full moon phase in winter
than at any other season.
The eason for this is not diff
cult to understand. The moon
shines not by any light Of it's own,
but only by reflected sunlight. In
this it resembles all the planets, but
differs entirely from the stars,
which, like our sun, produce their
own light. The phase of the moon
therefore, depends upon the rela-
tive positions of sun. moon and
earth.
Moon in It's Orbit
The full moon occurs when the
noon is on the side of the earth
opposite that of the sun. Further.
the moon passes around the earth
in an orbit which makes it move
through the field of stars very close
to the ecliptic circle, which is the
suns W apparent path through
the stars. The moon in the course
of one night a be seen to shift its
position with respect to the stars,
and it passes completely around its
track one asmonth. If the stars
were visible in the daytime the sun
would be seen to do likewise, but its
rate of motion would be very much
slower, as it passes around the
ecliptic only once a year.
The suns ecliptic circle is not
quite the course of the moon, but
for the sake of this simple explana.
ton we can for the present assume
it to be. The ecliptic crosses the
equator at two points, the equinoxes
and half of the ecliptic is south OF
the equator, the other north.
At full moon the and the
moo are opposite each other in the
sky and therefore at opposite points
of the ecliptic; when the sun is az
the southernmost point of the
ecliptic, namely the winter solstics,
the full moon must be at the oppo-
site solstice, which is the point of
the ecliptic farthest north from the
equator. Therefore the full moon
nearest the date of the winter SOL
stice rides higher in the sky than
any other. This winter it will be
cember and February full moons
will be very high.
AS a matter of fact. the moons
orbit is such that its plane makes
al. angle of about five degrees with
the plane of the ecliptic (earth's
orbit around the SUM, and the moon
"a get five degrees away from the
ecliptic circle. 1t can thus get five
degrees higher in the sky than the
sun. For latitude 40 the maximum
height of the sun above the horizon,
i. e.. the noon altitude on the day
of the summer solstice, is 1914 de-
grees, while that of the highest
winter full moon can be 7Sh de-
grees. Neither sur o noon can
ever get into the zenith, the point
directly overhead, in this latitude.
The sun will be at its lowest
noon-time altitude at the winter
solstice. which will occur this year
on Friday, the Esd, at 9:57 A. M.

The Eastern evening sky is now
a blaze of glory of first-magnitud
stars. The great constellation of
Orion, which we described last
month, has climbed well above the
horizon by map time and is follow
ed closel. in the East by the two
brilliant dog stars. Sirius. the Great
err Dog, and Procyon, the Lesser.
To the north of these and higher -,p
in the sky are the Twins, Castor and
Pollux.
Preceding Orion is Taurus, the
Bull, with the first-magnitude star
Aldebaran, and well to the north of
this is Capella, the She-Goat. Be-
sides these, second-magnitude stars
are found in this region in large
numbers, adding greatly to the in
terest and admiration which this
section of the heavens has always
inspired in both naked-eye observ-
ers and those more favored breth-
rem who are fortunate enough to
possess telescopes.
In the Western sky four more
frst-magnitude stars are to be
found. The great triangle composed
of Vega, Deneb and Altar is now
low over the horizon, and on next
months map Deneb alone will find
a place. Fomalhaut, the brightest
star of the constellation of Pisces
Australis, the Southern Fish, is also
low down over the Southwestern
horizon and will disappear from
our maps for many months to come.
