 And as we walked over the old stone floor of the castle hall that had been the stage upon which many centuries of various drama had been enacted, our guest-gnide described some of the old scenes --and so that we caught glimpses of knights in ar1nor, feminine finery and loveliness and back stage, bright-eyed children in quaint costumes, scarnpering about.
 Outside the castle we were led to see the extensive grounds with in the massive defensive walls.
 Here thousands of soldiers and horses were quartered.
 One feature that I remember, was the great well that never failed to supply an abundance of water for all uses.
 remember that on our return to our hotel that afternoon, our guest-guide from the University and my Boston fellow tourists talked much of America. Our guest-guide expressed his desire and intention to make America visit soon. He said that he had made many warm friends among American college professors who had visited Heidelburg.
 The Eatons made him promise to be their guest in Boston and we parted that day as lifelong friends.
 That evening we took 8 train for Baden Baden, having tele- graphed ahead for hotel reserva- tions..
 It was near midnight when we arrived in Baden-Baden. We took a. carriage for our hotel, and were met at the entrance by the pro- prietor, himself, in much dis tress.
 T did not get your telegram till too late to notify you that we naVenC vacant room in the house." he said, but I will send you in my own carriage around to the other hotels"
 But" he added, If you can't find any other place, come back and we will see what can be done. ;
 We did come back and the pro- prietor said that an entire floor of his hotel had been reserved for the Khedive of Egypt and his party, and they might arrive at any time, but considering the cir cumstances he would put us in there on the understanding that we must move out at an hours notice. So that accounts for the BoStonians and I living in such luxurious style in Baden Baden for the Khedive didn't show up during our weeks stay in the de- lightful city.

in the face of world conditions to. day, of Catholic publications. Hi excellency writes from the Episco- pal residence in Hartford:
 January 30th, l941. Dear Father:
 February is Catholic Press Month, throughout the United States. It is time when we em- phasize the influence and the need of our Catholic publications. At all times our people need enlight- enment and instruction in the doctrines of the Church. New problems arise on all sides that need solution or clarification. The Catholic Press, through its able managers and editors, defends Catholic truth, states the Catholic viewpoint and separates the wheat from the chaff. Able men and wo- men throughout our beloved land edit and direct our Catholic jour- nals. Millions of our Catholic peo- pie read and support our national and diocesan journals.
 Today more than ever questions of vital importance arise and de- mand solution. Our people look to the Church for their correct view point in the dogmatic, moral and social implications of these ques- tions. Our Catholic Press becomes therefore an Apcstolate. It de- fends the Catholic cause, ex-

a large telescope to distinguish it's dual nature. North of Canis Minor lies the constellation of Gemini, the Heavenly Twins, which contains the two bright stars, Castor and Pollux Although only Pollux is in the list of the 20 brightest stars which are conventionally termed first-magni- tude stars, Castor is very nearly as bright as Pollux, and the pair well merit the name of twins which has been theirs since the very earliest times. It is easy to recognize them as they are only four and one-half degrees apart Castor lies further north, or nearer the celestial north star, than Pollux Several hundred years ago an astronomer who was making an early catalogue of stars called Castor Alpha Gemi- norum and Pollux Beta Geminorum, which is not in accord with their present relative brilliancies. This may have been intentional, or an error, or may indicate that at that time Castor was as bright or bright CT than PolluX. AS a matter of fact, Castor is the more interesting of the two for it is easily seen even in small telescope. as double star. Each of this visible pair is it. self revealed by the use of spec troscope to be really double star, and a small neighboring star, it. self also a binary, belongs to the Castor system. In this star we have, therefore, really a star-Sys- tenn composed of six stars which re- volve in pairs about their binary centers of gravity and as a whole about the common center of gravity of their whole system. On the oth- CT hand, Castor and Pollux do not form a physically bound system in spite of their close position in the sky and their close connection in our minds. Castor is approaching us at the rate of eight miles per second Pollux Is retreating from us at the rate of about two miles per second. A similar status Is, of course. true in general of the great majority Of the stars which are seen close together in the sky. Two stars are in the same constellation only because they are seen In ap- proxlmately the same direction fro inthe earth; they may be separ- ated from one another by truly great astronomical distances. How ever, there are eases where stars which are close together as seen in tho sky really do blong to Q close ly united physical system. Such is tho case with the clusters like the eieiades and the Myade6 in the iielghborlng constellation of Taurus tlic Bull.

must exist and this calculated de- duction was proven correct by the discovery of the existence of the darker companion by the use of a large and powerful telescope in 1862.
 Canis Minor, the Lesser Dog, lies directly east of Orion and north- east of Sirius. It is interesting to the naked eye only because of its brightest luminary, the first-magni- tude star Procyon or Procion. The name itself means before the dog or "forerunner of the dog, as Procyon always rises little while before Sirius. Procyon, like Sirius
 Is a binary star and the two con- ponents revolve about one another once in 39 years. Added together their masses are about one and one-third times that of our sun
 The distance of Procyon from Us is about 10 light-year and it takes

ly surpass it, although Mars, too, must be added to this list when the latter reaches its maximum bril- liancy at a favorable opposition. This great brilliancy of Mars, how ever. is but of few weeks duration and for the rest of the time Mars dos not equal the brightness of Sirius. The light of Sirius is of a beautiful bluish- white color. Its true luminosity is equal to about AS suns like ours combined into one. We know this because its distance is quite accurately known to be about eight and one-half light years. This means that it takes light travelling at the rate of 186.- 900 miles per second about eight and one-half years to reach us. It is thus one of the closest stars in the sky to the sun and earth.
 The mass of sirius is about 34 times that of the sun and it is a particularly interesting fact to note that Sirus is really a binary or double star. What We see as one star with the unaided eye will, even in a telescope of moderate power, be revealed as actually composed of two bodies. We have here star system in which the visible compo- nents are about 100000 miles apart and revolve about each other in orbits. The period of revolution is AZ years. The larger component of the Sirius system is about twice as big and about 20 thousands times as bright as the lesser component. The lesser member, however, is noteworthy because 1t is the first of the ultra -denSe stars to be dis covered. The average density of its material is about 50.O00 times that of water. This is to be compared with the average density of the earth which Is only five and one half times that of water. The heaviest element known today on the earth Is the rare metal osmium of the platinum group which is heavier than lead. mercury or gold and has density of about 22 l-2 times that of water Sirius was also the first star to be observed to have . motion with respect to the other fixed" stars, which was discovered by Haley In iTie. This observation has contributed greatly to the development Of sidefeal as- tronomy and to 0 better under. atanding of the true structure and physical constltution Of the nni- verse ol stars.

In February we particularly like to call attention to the constella- tion of Orion. the Hunter, and the area of the sky which surrounds it. Orion can be readily identified by the so-called Sword Belt which is marked by three stars of about equal brightness and spacing. At map-time now it lies in a horizon tai position slightly to the west of the meridian and about halfway between the horizon and the zenith. If the line of the Belt is prolonged to the eastward it will lead you to the star Sirius in the constellation of the Great Dog, Canis Major
 Sirius is brilliant first-magnitude star, the very brightest of all the fixed stars as seen from the earth. Of the commoner celestial objects only the sun, the moon, and the planets Jupiter and Venus regular

 ''This black and battered circle of old floor stones upon which you are now standing, ,"--said our smil- ing guest-guide, could tell you all about how this old castle was heated in cold weather
 "Right where you are now standing" explained our guide, "huge piles of logs were heaped, and burned-not only throwing out heat but splendid illumina- tion."

(Qnoting From Am old Diary)
 Baden Baden, Germany, Fri- day, September 10th, 1sS6-1 A. M.
 Only great good luck has come to me since I met the EatOns of Boston last Monday on the Rhine. They make friends wherever they gO-and I share in the benefit.
 The BOstOnians are the magnet that drew our wonderful guest guide to go with us to the castle and make our visit there a great event instead of a mere routine affair. And it Is because I am touring with the BOstonians, that am now sitting-up in bed in the luxurious apartment of the Khe- dive of Egypt. But it is high time for me to put out the light and go to sleep and rest up for conn ing adventures"
 Well do I remember that day my Boston fellow-tourists and spent at Heidlburg Castle.
 The grand old castle and its mighty walls of defense have been standing there since the 18th Gen. tury-and it is now considered to be the best-preserved of the great old castles of Europe. Our guest guide was so well versed in the history and legend of the place and his art of narrative was so effective-that by his vivid de- scriptions we were made to vis- ualize something of the old life in the castle.
 I recall the immense assembly hall on the main floors of the castle, with its solid stone floor and lofty ceiling. There were held councils of war, victory banquets and elegant balls and social af-
