Planets Not Gone-You Must
Get Up Early to See Them
By J. HUGH PRUETT
Astronomer, General Extension,
University of Oregon
There are many inquiries this
summer regarding the absence of
planets from the sky. True, Venus
has recently reappeared in the
early twilight somewhat north of
west, but where are the others
whose names are so familiar?
They are in the heavens, but in
that part which most of us have
little inclination to see. One must
forego a few minutes of repose
when "rosy fingered Dawn" is
painting the eastern sky 3:15 is
early enough in order to view the
long, almost straight golden track
marked out by three of the bright
planets. This coming week a
fourth, Mercury, will join the line.
Let us start with the highest
planet of this very conspicuous
line. High in the sky somewhat
east of south there is the ruddy
Mars. This planet is now very
bright, but by early October, when
it will be rising at sunset, it will
be 4.4 times more brilliant. It will
be much in the news then as it
will be closer to us than for over
a dozen years in the future. Mars
now rises almost due east around
11 p. m.
Now extend the imaginary line
from Mars down and to the left to
a point almost due east. Here we
find yellow Saturn, the ringed
planet. It is bright, yet consider
ably less so than Mars. Only a
few degrees north of Saturn the
Pleiades (resembling a tiny dip
per) twinkle dimly.
Continuing the line to the left
and down we see the most bril
liant of all the morning planets,
Jupiter. Late next fall both Jupi
ter and Saturn will adorn the eve
ning sky in the evening and will
be much brighter than now.

You will find the bright orange
star, Aldebaran, near Jupiter, but
its twinkling, contrasting strikingly
with the steady light of Jupiter,
shows decisively it is not a planet.
If you have no hills or other ob
structions along your eastern hor
izon, you will be able to see the
elusive little Mercury almost any
morning during the coming week
at the lower end of the long plan
etary line. It will rise about one
and one-half hours before the
sun, considerably north of east, on
July 24. Mercury will then ap
pear somewhat dimmer than Sat
urn, but it will brighten each suc
ceeding morning for several days.
When near the horizon, it some
times twinkles, a behavior not
often indulged in by planets.
Uranus is also in the line (be
tween Saturn and Jupiter) but is
not visible without optical aid.
Pioneer House Minus
Modern-Day Aids
If you were a pioneer, building
a new home in the wilderness, you
undoubtedly would have to go
without many of the things you
take for granted in your home today.
The pioneer home, for example,
had no concrete footing or founda
tion, no plastering with cement, no
lathing, no electricity. It .had no
modern plumbing facilities, no
running hot and cold water, no
color combinations, no heating with
a big stove or furnace, no air con
ditioning. It had no gutters, no Insulating
boards, no refrigerators, no mod
ern tools, no basements.
But then, it didn't have a build
ing to which it had to adhere
either.
Fence Fi
Touch For Home
Philadelphia Rushes
Huge 'Wet Dock'
PHILADELPHIA. (U.R)
Spurred by the intense defense
preparations, the Philadelphi
navy yard is breaking all records
in constructing a mammoth "wet
dock" for building super-dread-
naughts.
Dumping tons of concrete daily
into a floor 40 feet below water
level, naval officials expect to
complete the 1,100-foot dock by
October.

A fence is the finishing touch to
cottage or mansion, and home has
not quite reached the ultimate in
privacy and satisfaction until its
surroundings have been rendered
both private and attractive by a
wood It'nce ... of which there is
a kind and style for every home.
A fence is by no means an ex
clusive prerogative of wealthy
families. Fence material is inex
pensive and the skill required to
build one is not beyond the capa
bility of the average householder.
It is quite probable that the most
attractive enclosures in your
neighborhood were built by "home
grown" labor during half holidays
and long summer evenings.
Attractive wood fences can be
built within a wide cost range.
Cost is dependent more upon the
amount of "special" material used
than upon the size or style of the
fence.
Fence architecture is somewhat
like house architecture. It may be
formal, informal, rustic, elaborate,
costly, or very expensive, liven as
the type of garden is usually de
signed for harmony with the style
and size of the home which it
surrounds, so the fence matches in
feeling both the architecture and
the garden arrangement.
The most common of all fence
.styles is the simple picket type,
which found its first roots in New
England Colonial architecture. If
it can be said that there is such a
thing as an American fence
"standard," its is probably the
simple picket type. Usually built
about four feet high, the picket
fence is decorative and adequate
to exclude unwanted animal vis
itors and keep children within safe
bounds.
Picket style fences require posts,
stringers, and pickets, all three of
which are available in most retail
building material establishments
as "stock" items.
Ready-cut pickets are purchas
able in standard lengths and
widths, in four or five different
patterns. They come packaged,
ready for use, and are much less
expensive than non-standard, odd
sized pickets which must be made
to order.
Both round and square posts are
supplied in various lengths, and
are usually better suited to fence
building and cost less than special
ly cut material. Rails for the av
erage picket fence can be made
of a good grade 2"x4", another
stock item.
There are certain standard di
mensions for height of pickets and
spacing which have become ac
cepted, because they produce a
fence of . pleasing proportions.
However they are easily varied to
suit individual taste. One dimen
son, the placing of posts, is fairly
well established from a good con
struction standpoint: It is unwise
to space posts further than eight
feet apart unless stringers are
heavier than 2"x4".
Ordinarily, space between pick
ets is the same as the width of the
picket, but some fences are built
with the pickets as close as an
inch. When the fence is intended
to block vision or keep out ani
mals, this spacing is advisable.
The predominant pattern of a
picket fence is vertical lines. Over
a great expanse, vertical lines are
sometimes tiresome and confusing
to the eye. Hence, for a straight
run much over 100 feet, it is well
to consider a style other than
pickets a stretcher fence, for in
stance. After the picket type, the
simple, two-rail, stretcher fence is
probably most . popular. Stock
4"x4" posts, five feet long, are
ordinarily used. Rails may be fit
ted between the posts with large
finishing nails toenailed. This
works out well for the pocketbook,
too. Since there is much less ma
terial in a stretcher fence, its cost
per lineal foot is considerably less,
As the stretcher type is used over
long reaches, this saving makes up
for some of the extra posts and
labor needed to enclose a larger
plot.
If you build a white house, you
usually build a white fence. By
the same rule-of-thumb, a fence
enclosing a natural wood finish
or weathered wood exterior should
also be stained or given a natural
treatment. Natural wood stained
fences blend well with any land
scape, because green and brown
are the predominant colors in na
ture. Economy also recommends
natural finish. Reasonably fre
quent scrubbing or repainting is
necessary to keep a white fence
white. Not so a weather-stained
one.
Many houses require a masonry
retaining wall to prevent erosion
of terraces and it can be very at
tractive, provided too much blank
wall does not meet the eye. One
method of eliminating this possi
bility is a low, masonry wall, sur
mounted by a snori, picKei ience.
The contrast between white wood
and masonry is pleasing.
The construction of a fence on
cinnin pr-nund is sometimes miz
zling to the amateur builder. One
interesting solution is to drop each
section of fence a little below the
previous one, steplike.
Floyd Ray, Orchestra
Coming to Park
Floyd Ray, known as the colored

be one of the busiest and most
talented, as well as youngest
orchestra leaders of his race in
the nation.
The Ray organization is now
entering its sixth year as it begins
its four annual transcontinental
tour from Hollywood.
It is the same band which creat
