from; it viii be the home OF star
friends who Will follow however far
one may wander.
There is but one best place to begin
star gazing. and that Is with Ursa
Major, the Great Bear or Big Dipper.
The seven bright stars of this constei-
lation, which form IA long.tailed bear,
or a dipper, are not only most inter
esting themselves. but they serve as
guides to several other Northern star
groups.
The two stars forming the outer
edge of the Big Dipper are called the
Pointers tsee chart), because they
point to the most important star in
the sky, Polaris, the North Star,
which is set In the very tip of IJrsa
Minors tail, or at the end of the Little
Dipper's handle. If you prefer. BY
this star mariners OF old guided their
voyages and undoubtedly that was
what Homer meant when he wrote
about one who safe and mark'd the
Skies
The star at the end of the Big
Dipper's handle, known as Mizar, is a
double star--that is, there are two
stars whose light seems to come to us
as one. However, a good pair of eyes
can very easily separate MiZar from
its little companion.
Ursa Minor Is fainter and harder to
find than Ursa Major, but the two
stars corresponding to the Pointers
are almost always distinct and these
are called the Guardians of the Pole
One who watches these two constel-
lations from time TO time, at about the
same hour, will find that their position
does not remain the same, A study Of
Charts / and III will show their motion
around Polaris, and as they are so
close TO 1t they and such others as are
no farther away never sink below the
northern horizon, although they are,
OF course, invisible In daytime. Groups
farther from the Pole star will dip be-
low the horizon as they make their
revolution
So long ago that no one knows just
when, people who loved to watch the
sky gave names to the stars and the
consultations, taking them from the
old myths and hero tales, and, while
the names were never changed, many
different stories came to be told OF
each constellation. For real astrono-
mers these stories have little value,
but to those who are slowly picking
out group AT Time they are quite

add interest and pleasure as well.
Out of all the tales which have fas-
tened themselves to the Big and Little
Bear only two can be briefly told here.
The ancients explained that the req
son the Bears tails are so long is that
they were stretched when Jupiter, be.
ing angry with them, swung them up

hat of this sort may give good service

A year ago we heard a good deal Of
talk about the return of the trimmed
hat Perhaps the milliners did most
OF the talking, or at least some of the
nilliners. 1t seemed TO them as If
there would be more opportunity TO
make hats that were distinctive and
becoming IL we went back to the old
fashion of burdening our hats with
flowers and feathers and complicated
adornment
1t might seem as II all this agitation
had come to naught. Hats still seem
very simple. Quite as much depends
on the shape and dra ping of the hat

fact that trimmings are so sparingly
