The red color of Mars, fortunately, makes it easy to identify Mars has been to the west of Saturn, but on Nov 30 passed its fainter brother, and during December is toward the east and south, gradually drawing farther away. Among the stars of the month the brilliant constellation of Orion, the warrior, is most prominent, as he always is in our winter skies. To locate him, look to the southeast. for the three stars in a row that mark his belt. The two bright stars just above, of which Betelgeuse is one, mark his shoulders, while Rigel, below is in one of his feet. As de- picted in the old star maps, which showed the actual figures around the stars, he is depicted as holding an upraised club, defending himself from the charge of Taurus. the bull. This apimal forms another con- stellation, above and to the right. with first magnitude Aldebaran as one of his eyes. On the other side of Orion, shown low in the east, are the two dogs, Canis Major and Canis Minor which contain the stars Sirius and Procyon. Of all the stars we see in the night-time sky, Sirius is bright- est, almost as bright as Jupiter Actually it is not so bright as stars go, but looks so brilliant because it is one of the closest of the stars. Alongside Orion, to the north we can see Gemini, tLe twins. with the stars Castor and Pollux. the latter the more brilliant. And above them we find Auriga. the charioteer. with Capella. still another star of the first magnitude Hunters’-Eye View Of Wildlife The public has been forced to realize (no compliment to the hu- man race) that humans must look like wodchucks, for again last sum- mer several Pennsylvanians were shot because they reportedly re- sembled these animals, Now it becomes almost clear why y |a man is sometimes called “an old duck”.

Placed on a portion of the his- toric winter encampment grounds of George Washington and the Con- tinental Army, the new bell tower will be an additional attraction for sight-seers visiting the area. There is a bell for each of the 48 States and National Birthday bell. Valued at $88,000, the Washing- ton Memorial Carillion was the first set of bells made in this country and is generally recog- nized as the most perfect set in the world, according to Mrs, William C. Langston, of York, chairman of the committee for the erection of the ley Forge. Hymns and patriotic songs are played daily at each hour from 10 am. to 5 p.m, at which time the national anthem concludes the daily musical program, The tower's Memorial Room will have an honor roll listing more than 10,000 names of veterans of the Revolutionary War and World Wars I and II The community of York, Penn- sylvania, has given the tower a stained glass window as a mem- orial which tells the story of the brotherhood of four heroic Army chaplains, This memorial is a special tribute to Rabbi Goode, a resident of York, at the time of his enlistment, yet it also honors the three other chaplains, Father Washington, Reverend Fox and Reverend Poling who, with Rabbi Goode, when their ship was tor- pedoed, gave their life belts to the soldiers, then linked. their arms and went down with their ship, Along with its large production of fruits, vegetables and agriculture products, including bananas, sugar cane, tobacco and pecans, Florida has large fishing interests, phos- phate deposits, and is rated as the second largest cattle producing state in the U.S. HARMONY HOUSE 100 Main Road TRUCKSVILLE Chicken Dinner $1.00 Fish and Chips 50 Real Italian Spaghetti With Meat Balls 50 French Fries 15 and 25c CHILI, SANDWICHES, PIZZA MIXED DRINKS, WINE, BEER Memorial Bell Tower at Val- | Quintuplets Use ‘Musterole’ For Chest Colds !
