thought he was very odd creature.

I have splendid horns-there are two
fine stars at the tips, and the famous
Hyades make an outline of my face"

tween him ard your earth. He's not
a real member of the Hyades group,
as they say, for he has his own kind
of motion. We say he hasn't the

Harry looked about him and now
saw FIVE members of the Pleiades
which looked, in outline, something
like dipper with short handle, but
they were far away from the other
dipper so he was certain he would not
get them confused when he got back
to the earth.
The Pleiades were in the Bulls con-
stellation Gas they always called a
family group of stars) and Taurus
told him how many names they had
been given by different people. Some
had called them Many Little Ones,
others had called them Hen and
Chickens, still others had called them
the Seven Sisters and others the
Seven Brothers, while in ancient Per-
STA a petition to the king was always
granted at the time they were at their
best.

of the seven famous ones are always
fairly easy to pick out though there
are really several thousand stars in
their number.
"Then my Hyades stars are cele-
brated, spreading themselves out, and
yet all travelling in the same direction
and at the same pace.
when you're down on your Earth
you can remember that If you look
from the Hyades toward the north
west you'll see the Pleiades. Their
name means rain and people years
ago used to call them the rain stars.
But here comes Cosmo. That means
you must be off. Well. don't forget
your friend the Bull"

he left him.

Committee Finds Position Embarrassing, Between Two Fires-Try to Mini mize Effect by Claims That Few Men Are Named.

Washington, April 26 (UP)-Dry members of congress could drink liauor to their hearts content today. if they desired. secure in the knoWl- edge that their private habits would not be revealed by the senate lobby committee.
 That committee continued to guard from public view an allegedly sensational document taken from the files of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. It was said to contain the names of some wet-drinking, dry-voting congress- men and politicians.
 Meanwhile committee members attempted to discount the import ance of the document with asser- tions that few if any members of congress were named in it.
 Does Name Congressman
 The United Press learned definite ly, however, from a member of the committee, that the document pre- pared for the association by Carter Field, Washington newspaperman, does name come liquor drinking dry members of congress.
 One senator who has read the re- port said there were "vcry many instances reported by Field, in which conflicting personal practices and official at.ttudes of members of con- gress and candidates for congress were described.
 The committees decision not to make the document public was bas- ed on the grounds that its prepara- tion was not within the field of lob- bying activities. No formal vote was taken 10 decide what should be done agreed by members not to make an issue of the matter.
 It was pointed out to senators on the committee that they were laying themselves open to the charge that aN dry committee was shielding dry Congressmen. They countered by de- claring it was the only wet member of their group, Senator Blaine, repn., Wis, who originally prevented the report from going into the record when it was offered by Senator Rob- inson, repn., Ind, Thursday.
 Committee Embarrassed
 Nevertheless members of the con- mittee expressed some concern re- garding the position in which they were placed. Chairman Caraway declared that he had not studied the document, but if he found it show ed relations between public officials and the wet organization he would favor making it public.
 Senator Blaine, meanwhile, indi- cated he would no longer object to the report going into the record. 1t was apparently the senior members of the group. Senators Walsh, dem., Mont, and Borah, repn.. Idaho, who insisted upon sticking to "congres- sonal ethics"
