On September IL Venus is nearest to
the earth and between it and the sun.
in inferior conjunction. For short
time whereabouts Venus will be too
nearly in the direction of the sun to be
seen. Before September IL Venus is
an evening star. After that time it is
a morning star. On November 81 it is
at it's greatest western elongation and
about at it's best as a morning star.
1t will continue to be a morning star
until July l. 1928, when it will be at 3
again, and the whole course of events
will be repeated.
AS is evident from the figure, Venus
is getting closer to the earth until Sep
TENDER II, but it is nearly at the same
distance from the sun at all times. AS
it approaches the earth it looks larger
as seen from the earth. With the naked
eye Venus merely looks like a very
bright star. but in telescope it shows
disk. But as it approaches the earth
part of that half of Venus which is
illuminated by the sun is turned away
from us and we do not see the whole
disk; that is. the planet has phases.
Venus will be brightest as an evening
star August and as a morning star
October Is. The variation in bright
ness, however. is not great.
Remember that you, the observer,
are on the earth at A, so the figure
should be held with A near the eye
and the line on the paper ABB as nearly
as possible in the direction of the sun.
OF course, the planet win be seen best
when the sun is not visible. but 1t is
not difficult to know pretty nearly
where the sun is soon after it sets or

planet will be seen to move among the
stars about it while they remain in eX-
actly the same relative positions night
after night. Venus passes the Pleiades
at A, Figure /, April Is, and at the
end of the month is above the star
Aldebaran at B, in Taurus. Above
Venus is Mars, which is also a planet.
Mars is also moving eastward, but
only half as fast as Venus, so that
Venus will soon overtake it. Mars is
not now a conspicuous star, because of
its great distance from the earth. Both
Venus and Mars simply reflect the
light of the sun.
AS seen from Philadelphia, Venus
sets at S:57 pm. April and at 10 pm
April 80. Mars sets at 1919 am. April
] and at 1897 pm. April 80. The
times at other places in the United
States will be approximately the same
1t will be noted that Venus sets later
at the end of the month, but Mars
earlier. This is due to the fact that
Venus moves eastward faster than the
Sun and Mars slower

CLEAR TOWER MYSTERY.
Built for Defense of English Chan

LONDON, March 26 CD.--The mys-
terry of two huge towers, built on the
south coast of England during the
war and never used, has been
cleared up.
The towers, 80 feet high, and built
at cost of approximately $4,000, 900
each, were to be the forerunners of
many similar ones for the defense
OF the English Channel.
They were to be towed out to sea
and strug together across the Straits
of Dover, linked together at distances
of a few hundred yards with nets
and heavily fortified with guns In
the top of each a powerful search
hight was to be placed.
