Figure of Giant Orion Most

Of all the splendid star groups
which the "nkies of winter
know. there it none so out
standing as the one considered
by the ancient peoples to outline
the figure of tne giant urion.
the mighty hunter.
TMa magnificent figure,
adorned with twinkling lights
of various brightness and color,
now makes a majestic nightly
march across the southern heav
ens.
We shall try to outline this
constellation without a printed
diagram. Should the sky be
clear this coming week, let us
look high in the south between
7 and 8 pja, Almost instantly
we notice a short line of three
quit prominent stars, very ev
enly spaced and all of the same
degree of brightenss, sloping
downward toward the left This
line marks the belt around Or
ion's waist,
Hanging from the lowest star
of the belt is a short line of s
few dimmer stars, which consti
tutes the dagger. On a moon

those with good eyes will note
that one star of the dagger looks
somewhat fuzzy. Field glasses
will reveal a haziness around it
This is a faint view of the great
Orion nebula, so splendid in
large telescopes.

A few faint stars above an Imag

constitute his head. He is facing

Of the stars below the belt.
the one to the east is Salph in
Orion's right knee; the other,
the intensely brilliant, sparkling
RigeL is his left shoe buckle.
Another fainter star slightly
higher marks his upraised, bent
knee. A few faint stars above
his right shoulder trace his lifted
arm and club. A curve of "pin
points" to the west of the left
shoulder marks the shield of
lion's skin. His threatening at
titude is directed at Taurus, the
bull, which with lowered head
is madly charging at him. .
The poets of all ages have paid
high homage to this fine celestial
hunter. The Hebrew Job asked,
"Canst thou loosen the bands of
Orion?" Virgil in his Latin
Aeneid exclaimed, "Bright Or
ion, armed with burnished gold.
Tennyson saw "Great Orion,
sloping slowly to the west"
According to the ancient
myths, Orion was the tallest and
most handsome of men. He
quarreled with Oenoplon and
was blinded by this adversary.
He set out for the "place of the
sunrise," and there his sight was

. Itjes . . .more than 95
of the applications are accepted
THE life insurance companies are
constantly re-appraising their
standards of acceptance in an effort to
make life insurance available to more
people. This they do through research
and by continually studying their experi
ence with millions of policyholders.
Today, certain physical conditions,
once regarded as barriers to life insur
ance, are now acceptable. Likewise,
many workers engaged in occupations,
previously thought too hazardous, can
now be insured. In both cases, some are
accepted at standard rates, some at
extra rates based on the extra risks
involved.
More than 9 out of 10 of the applica
tions accepted are approved for policies
at standard rates.
Naturally, each company has its own
rules for acceptance. Each must check
carefully such things as the applicant's
physical condition, family health his
tory, occupation and living habits to
protect the interests of its present policy
holders. The net result is that today the life
insurance companies, actively com
peting with each other, are providing
life insurance for more people than
ever before.
