Text reads: View in observatory which houses the 60-inch telescope at the Carnegie Institute's observatory on the summit of Mt. Wilson in Southern California showing Friday night party of tourists taking their turns at looking through the scope at Jupiter, 130,000,000 miles away. Visibility is generally fine on Mt. Wilson. In addition to the 60-inch telescope shown here the obser vatory is equipped with the 100-inch telescope.

Wilson, altho this location has not been definitely settled. Photo by Adelbert Bartlett, 535 15th Street, Santa Monica, Calif.
