constantly surrounded by such
proofs, friend.
In the first place. what IS per
sona1ity?
You think of II as a vague, in
definite assortment Of habits,
mannerigms, viewpoints, attitudes.
But Personality goes much deeper
than that--these things are only
It's outer gestures Personality is
that inner, living Plan which
distinguishes its possessor from
all others. 1t 10 q distinct special
lied expression OF Life.
This Is true, not only OF men,
but of all forms or creations.
Cabbages have personality. Frogs
have personality. Iron has per-
sonality. All forms of creation
have certain characteristics which
set them apart from all other
FORMS
The distinctive characteristics
of iron are seemingly simple. The
characteristics of a cabbage are
still more involved. And Man
subtle and powerful characters
tics Of all.
Yet, though men and cabbages
seem so far apart, nevertheless
the same law holds for both. To
each created form it's own charac-
teristics-its own perculiar Per-
sonality-is OF vital Importance.
And If It can be proven that
Personality persists in all the
lower forms of creations, why
should we doubt that 1t persists
in man?
1t DOES persist.
The matter which composes
cabbages lives and dies and is
dispersed as does the matter
which composes man. But a cab.
bage smells and tastes today as
it did when Adam made the first
sauerkraut.
But that only proves the per-
petuation Of physical elements"
you protest.

Is SO utterly unexpected and ern-
phatic that II startIes the eye.
The components Of this beautiful
double are or magnitude 3 and 4,
respectively. and their distance
apart Is about Is seconds Of arc.
We have made good start.
Now look south OF the center Of
the Dipper's handles, and ct dis
lance about equal to its length
you notice lonely third magni-

ful surprise for the eye: the tele-
scope separates 1t into two stars
Of third and sixth magnitude, the
larger white and the smaller q

them 30 seconds Of arc.

to turn more westward, bringing
the stars in the east UP higher,
and then notice the flashing
beauty of the first magnitude
star, Vega. in the Harp 1t is

Close by this magnificent star,
toward the east are two little
stars, between fourth and fifth
magnitude, making q perfect lit.

neighbor. The northern one is
Epsilon, the southern Zeta. Your
opera-glass splits Epsilon into
two stars, looking like q pair

on them with its highest power,
say 100 diameters. You will see
each Of the pairs split into two
stars almost touching one an
other. This object is the famous
"double-double" in Lyra. The
other star. Zeta, Is a wide double
in the telescope.
Fish for It
Next, look few degrees south
Of Vega, where there are two
third magnitude stars not far
apart-Beta and Gamma Lyrae.
About one-third of the way from
the northern to the southern OF
these stars lies the ring nebula. !"
You win have to fish for 1t, as
1t is very faint, but IL you catch
sight of It you will say it Is the
most delicate thing you ever saw.
One of the most amazing OF all
celestial objects, the great globular
star cluster in Hercules, lies with

is the constellation with a quadri-
