his heart marked by the fiery Antares which is one of the giant stars of the heavens four hundred million miles in diameter and distant from us three hundred and fifty light years. Antares is called rival of Mars because when Mars is most distant from the earth, it very much resembles this star.
 "There are two planets beautifully in view-Saturn and Virgo, in the southwest and Jupiter, near Antares in Scorpio, on the southeast-the brightest object in view. Venus will be too close to the sun to be seen,' says the statement.
 "Britghest Star is Vega"
 ''The brightest star north of the equator is Vega. You can recognize it by two little stars close to it which form triangle with Vega. If you draw line from Vega to Corona you will find at the point where this line crosses the western side of the four sided figure that outlines the body of Hercules, a faint hay patch of light visible without telescope on clear, dark nights.
 "This is called the Great Star Gus ter in Hercules. It is a universe of giant suns thirty thousand or more closely packed together, or so it seems with powerful telescope. Yet the dis tance between the nearest neighbor- ing stars in this cluster is over tril- lion miles. This cluster is so fal away that it's light takes something like thirty thousand years to travel te the earth at the rate of 185,000 miles a second.
 In the early evening hours of thi month almost overhead may be seen ; perfect little semi-circle of six stars known as the Corona Borealis (Th Northern Crown). The brightest O these, the jewel in the crown is sta of the second magnitude, known a Gemma of Alphaoca. This little groul of stars lies between the huge constel lations of Bootes on the west an, Hercules on the east"
