Looking Upward These warm August nights will have most of us outside at one time or another, and undoubtedly someone will call attention to a flurry of falling stars, or meteorites. These showers will be with us almost constantly during the month of August, although the “show” will vary greatly each night. The most abundant and reliable show of the year is that put on by the Perseids, reaching their climax about Aug. 11. Watchful observers can often see as many as 50 in an hour. They may be seen in parts of the sky, but seem to radiate from the constellation Perseus, which will be low in the northeast about 11 p.m. By August 11 the moon will be reaching its last quarter, and will obscure only the fainter meteors. Another shower, the Delta Aquarids, began late in July and will continue until Aug. 7. They appear to radiate from a point in the constellation Aquarius, low in the southeast at 11 p.m. Continuing until Aug. 22 will be the Capricornids, which also began in July. Their radiant, or apparent point of origin, is in Capricornus, nearly straight south at 11 p.m. <M«I From Aug. 10 to 20, there will be visible a mild shower radiating from the region of Kappa Cygnus, which will be overhead at 11 o’clock, a little east of bright Vega. Meteor showers are caused by the earth running into swarms of meteroids, thought to be the . debris of extinct comets. ..These swarms move in orbits about the sun, and when the earth moves into their orbits, it captures some of them, which burn as they enter the earth’s atmosphere. Most meteoroids are quite small—one a fraction of an inch in diameter can appear as bright as a first magnitude star when it burns, if it is moving fast enough. They are called meteors when they burn, and meteorites if they survive and fall on the earth. j Meteors associated with a shower appear to come . - from the same point in the sky because they are moving through space in parallel paths—to us, their paths appear to converge in the distance, like the parallel rails of a railroad track. More meteors can be seen after 1 a.m. than before, since then we are on the “forward” side of the earth as ft tndves around the sun—we are running into the meteoroids. Before midnight, those seen are only the faster ’ ones which catch up with the earth. ■ No one knows what to expect of a shower on a given year. Sometimes the earth runs into a greater concentration of meteoroids in a swarm than in other years, sometimes leap. If you watch carefully after midnight this August, you may be rewarded with a fine display, or maybe only a few . Happy hunting!

0 — 'O I Modern Etiquette I By ROBERTA LEE I o —c. Q. Would it be all right to mail a joint wedding invitation to an engaged couple, or must an individual invitation be sent to each? A, Correctly, an individual invitaton is sent to each. But if you happen to be running low on invitations, you could be forgiven for mailing a joint invitation to this couple. In this case, you address the outer envelope to the girl, “Miss Jane Reynolds,” and the inside envelope to “Miss Reynolds and .Mr. Robert Collins." Q. When eating a fried egg whose yolk is rather “runny,” is it all right to put a small piece of bread on the tyid of the fork and use this to dip up the yolk? A. This is not only proper — but very practical. Q. When having a piece of silver for a baby marked with only one intial, should it be the first or the last? A. The first.
