stop. The boy made it across and
seemed in the clear, so his mother
thought, and she let the truck stop
irradually. But the boy had de
cided then to run back on the other
side, and apparently had just
started across again when the
bumper knocked him down and the
wheel ran over his left arm break
ing it Just above the elbow. Aside
from cuts and bruises on tne neaa
and face, no other internal injuries
were suffered by the boy. He was
rushed to the hospital for treat
ment.

Planet Venus Proves
Baffling To Many Amateurs
By j. iirtiii rut I rr
Atlramr, Kxltilii tlttUUn, Orrion
llllhtr Muoli0ii !
On the evening of January 13, one
news service was carrying the story
that In Vermont a brilliant objtvt,
at times definitely throwing oil
sparks, was seen liaiuting In the
early evening sky. Another service
called me long distance for con
firmation ot the report that a lumi
nous body was falling toward the
moon, would strike It In four hours
and would then produce a spec
tacular shower of meteors.
The gorgeous planet Venus, now
high In the southwest at siiiim-i,
was doubtless the object causing the
consternation. On that evening it
was above the "thin slip ol a cres
cent moon," which It gradually
seemed to be approaching. The
moon in its eastward orbital motion
around the earth was lessening the
apparent distance between the two,
while both were slowly "falling''
toward the horlion. Alter they had
set, the moon passed the planet.
Although Venus is glorious in the
wesern twilight for a few months
about every l'a years, many who
have lived through dozens ot such
cycles do not upon a new appear
ance recall that they have ever be
fore seen such a blight star-like
object. Talcs of a strange light in
the heavens, possibly presaging the
end of the world, then circulate
freely.
Those astronomically inclined
who would like to point to the place
in the sky known as the vernal
equinox, may do so around February
11 if Venus Is In clear sky. lor
the planet will be practically on
that location then. It will be in the
constellation The Fishes although in
terms of "signs" this is still called
the First of Aries.
The brilliant planet Jupiter now
dears the southeastern sky lint
three hours before sunrise and be
comes the brightest star-like object
In the nmruiiiK heavens. Ily I lie
time blight tlauit dissolves It Into
the blue background. It has reached
the south southeast.
Red Mars ami yellow tin I mil still
form an liiteiesllug curved line
wuh the star Hcgulus. which Is dim
mer than either ami between them.
All have cleared the eastern homon
by 7 p. m or shortly alter, with
Mars, the lowest ol the three, no
ticeably the brightest.
The elusive Mercury Is now in Hie
Westell) twilight, setting l' hours
after the sun. It Is quite bright,
considerably below and slightly to
the right o( Venus. There Is no mis
taking It for it is the only blight
object besides Venus In that lo
cality. This little planet mil be 111
sight for several eveiiliiKs yet.
It will be recalled that Mercury
Is the smallest of the tegular
planets, having a diameter less than
half that of the earth, and the near
est ol any to the sun. It makes a
trip around the sun In 88 days, dur
ing must of which tuna It is ap
parently so near the sun that It is
invisible.
