armament by means Of a dome
Stimulating the overarching
canopy of the heavens. Upon
this stage, the planets and
stars were to be the actors.
AL the principal features of
the heavens were to be pro-
jected, in the form of points
Of light, upon this great dome.
The planets and stars, Mer-
curry, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and
the other principal stellar OBJ
jects. were to be shown NOV
ing among the fixed stars
just as they actually do in the
sky. The dome must be
sprinkled not with a few, but
literally with thousands of stars.
After five years Of labor,
DR.. Walter Bakersfield, chief
engineer Of the great Zeiss
works, completed the first
planetarium under DR.. Won
Miller's direction. Although it
proved very expensive to con-
struct the result was justified
by the immense popularity
with which it was greeted by
the public. Cities began to vie
with each other in construct
ing these fascinating new as
Economical theaters. There are
many such in Europe, Germany
alone having 18 planetaria.
There is but one In the
United States, that at Chicago,
very recently completed. It Is
the gift Of Max Adler, a philan-
thropist, who expended about
100000 in the construction
OF the planetarium and a suit
able building to house it.
This building stands on an
artificial island In Lake Michi-
gan and is an object Of beauty
because of its architectural
simplicity. On the mainland
near at hand, stand the Field
Museum of Natural History
and the new Shedd Aquarium.
All three institutions, devoted
to science, will constitute in
tegral parts of the exposition
to be held at Chicago, in COM
memoration Of q century Of
progress.
In the center Of the build
ing stands a huge light pro
jector, which has a frame
running on a track laid In the
floor. The demonstration Is
carried on In seY1ni-darkneSS,

Let's go over to the west

of Rameses II acknowledged by
experts to be the finest work
of the reign of this monarch.
There is an interesting legend
true about this. It is related
that before this tomb was
built a huge statue Of the king,
weighing more than a thousand
tons, was erected on this same
spot. In some way this statue
was overthrown. But the myS.
terry is how, because 1t did not
show signs Of violence any
where.
Amenhotep III is honored by
the erection of the ColoSsi,
those statues stand grandly
alone in the plain. The legend
of this is that originally there
was a temple there and that
the Colossi stood in front Of it,
but the temple is gone, van

tion and then go on for sew

Karnak became holy ground
about 5000 B. c. Building, re-
building and still more build

years or more, with the result
that there is a mass Of shrines

That is exactly the way most

themselves two generations ago.
Many Of them still continue to
think that way, but, fortunately,
their number is diminishing.

realizes that motherhood is

it's up to-. her to get busy and
learn her job. But there are

Boyd, HAS LONG BEEN THE

SELFISE1NESS. every conceiv-

committed in the name OF
motherhood. It has been used
as a device for compelling mar

ture to the father whose more
sensitive nervous system could
not endure the thought OF It's
pains: it was a condition which
notoriously reduced the senti-
mental male to abject surren'
der. . it has proved an fnvalu-
able investment for alimony...

The long skirts may revive
the imaginations of the com.
ing generation, but the men of
this generation have no illu-
sions about the divinity" and
beauty Of the feminine knee.
They've seen too many Of the
over-stuffed and underpadded
varieties.
Some men were born to be
lovers, but never to be hus-
bands: which is probably why
they are always the first to
maryland the last to stop
marrying.
There is something about the
the sight Of his wife's photo
graph on a mans desk that
takes his stenographer's heart
right out Of her work.
The sleep Of the just may be
sweet, but. from our observa-
ton, it is usually the UNJUST
who sleep serenely until noon,
while the "just" are downtown
working for a living.
Men still complain that mod
ern inventions have made life
too easy for the women; yet,
thanks to them, q man merely
has to turn a knob or press q
button, instead of getting up to
make the fire mornings; and
can tune in on a jazz program,
instead Of listening to a cur
tain lecture, evenings.
The only excitement some
women seem to get out Of life
is the thrill Of going from
beauty parlor to beauty parlor
and from specialist to spe-
cialist.
The kind Of girl q man likes
for q "date'' and the sort he
wants for q wife are as diff.
ferent as what he likes for
afternoon tea and what he
wants for a solid meal. Yet,
nine times out Of ten, he will

Mrs. Jake Wood is NOT a

Astronomy is one Of the most
fascinating of all scientific
subjects. It deals with the en-
tire visible universe Of stars,
planets and other bodies Of in
ter-stellar space. Furthermore,
It plurnbs the depths of this
mysterious inter-stellar space,
and studies countless objects
thousands, millions which are
not visible to the naked eye,
and would remain invisible for
ever, save for the marvellous in
Struments Of the telescope, the
spectroscope and the camera.
AS students of the technical,
mathematical and observational
aspects Of astronomy will tell
you, astronomy is very difficult.
For many people seem unable
to visualize, or do SO only with
great difficulty, the movements
~of the heavenly bodies, and
: their relations to each other.
The teacher of astronomy has
to draw elaborate diagrams, on
o plane blackboard, of pheno-
l11ena which take place in
space. Objects and movements
In three -dimensional space have
to be represented on a two
dimensional plane sheet Of paper,
or blackboard. Some people
re adily understand such dia-
grams; o tn erS unfortunately,
lacking the visualizing faculty,
do not.
Go into q museum contain
ing old scientific and astrono-
1nical instruments, and you will
doubtless see a curious looking
mechanical model known as an
orrery. This is the instrument
which has been used for centu-
rieS by astronomers to explain or
actually demonstrate the move
11entS of the planets and the
satellites. In the center Of. the
! model is a white globe repre-
Eenting the sun. Further out, at
differing distances, at the ends
Of rods are smaller globes, repre-
senting the planets. From the
main rods radiate other branch
ing rods, at the extremities of
which are still smaller globes
representing the satellites Of the
planets. The whole instrument
Is like q mechanical bush with
globular buds at the ends Of the
rectilinear branches. It is
geared up so that. by turning q
crank. the various portions Of
the mechanism perform certain
motions duplicating, on q small
and greatly foreshortened scale,
the motions Of the heavenly
bodies in space, individually and
with relationship to each other.
