+\First{In} the greatly awakened interest in the common-school
+subjects during recent years, geography has received a
+large share. The establishment of chairs of geography in
+some of our greatest universities, the giving of college
+courses in physiography, meteor\-ology, and commerce,
+and the general extension of geography courses in normal
+schools, academies, and high schools, may be cited as
+evidence of this growing appreciation of the importance of
+the subject.
+
+While physiographic processes and resulting land forms
+occupy a large place in geographical control, the earth in
+its simple mathematical aspects should be better understood
+than it generally is, and mathematical geography
+deserves a larger place in the literature of the subject than
+the few pages generally given to it in our physical geographies
+and elementary astronomies. It is generally
+conceded that the mathematical portion of geography
+is the most difficult, the most poorly taught and least
+understood, and that students require the most help in
+understanding it. The subject-matter of mathematical
+geography is scattered about in many works, and no one
+book treats the subject with any degree of thoroughness,
+or even makes a pretense at doing so. It is with the
+view of meeting the need for such a volume that this
+work has been undertaken.
+
+Although designed for use in secondary schools and for
+teachers' preparation, much material herein organized
+%% -----File: 004.png---Folio 4-------
+may be used in the upper grades of the elementary school.
+The subject has not been presented from the point of
+view of a little child, but an attempt has been made to
+keep its scope within the attainments of a student in a
+normal school, academy, or high school. If a very short
+course in mathematical geography is given, or if students
+are relatively advanced, much of the subject-matter may
+be omitted or given as special reports.
+
+To the student or teacher who finds some portions too
+difficult, it is suggested that the discussions which seem
+obscure at first reading are often made clear by additional
+explanation given farther on in the book. Usually the
+second study of a topic which seems too difficult should be
+deferred until the entire chapter has been read over carefully.
+
+The experimental work which is suggested is given for
+the purpose of making the principles studied concrete and
+vivid. The measure of the educational value of a laboratory
+exercise in a school of secondary grade is not found
+in the academic results obtained, but in the attainment of
+a conception of a process. The student's determination
+of latitude, for example, may not be of much value if its
+worth is estimated in terms of facts obtained, but the
+forming of the conception of the process is a result of
+inestimable educational value. Much time may be wasted,
+however, if the student is required to rediscover the facts
+and laws of nature which are often so simple that to see
+is to accept and understand.
+
+Acknowledgments are due to many eminent scholars
+for suggestions, verification of data, and other valuable
+assistance in the preparation of this book.

+\index{Polestar@Polestar\phantomsection\label{idx:p}, (\emph{see} \hyperref[idx:ns]{North star})}%
+recording the date and time of observation. Preserve
+your sketch for future reference, marking it Exhibit~1.
+A month or so later, sketch again at the same time of
+night, using the same sheet of paper with a common
+polestar for both sketches. In making your sketches
+be careful to get the angle formed by a line through
+the ``pointers'' and the polestar with a perpendicular to
+the horizon. This angle can be formed by observing the
+side of a building and the pointer line. It can be
+measured more accurately in the fall months with a pair
+of dividers having straight edges, by placing
+one outer edge next to the perpendicular
+side of a north window and opening the
+dividers until the other outside edge is
+parallel to the pointer line (see Fig.~\figureref{i009}{2}).
+Now lay the dividers on a sheet of paper
+and mark the angle thus formed, representing
+the positions of stars with asterisks.
+Two penny rulers pinned through the ends
+will serve for a pair of dividers.

+\Paragraph{Phases of the Moon.}\nblabel{page:9} Note the position
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+\index{Phases of the moon}%
+\index{Sun|(}%
+of the moon in the sky on successive nights at the same
+hour. Where does the moon rise? Does it rise at the
+same time from day to day? When the full moon may
+be observed at sunset, where is it? At sunrise? When
+there is a full moon at midnight, where is it? Assume
+it is sunset and the moon is high in the sky, how much of
+the lighted part can be seen?
+
+Answers to the foregoing questions should be based upon
+%% -----File: 010.png---Folio 11-------
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+first-hand observations. If the questions cannot easily
+be answered, begin observations at the first opportunity.
+Perhaps the best time to begin is when both sun and moon
+may be seen above the horizon. At each observation
+notice the position of the sun and of the moon, the portion
+of the lighted part which is turned toward the earth, and
+bear in mind the simple fact that \emph{the moon always shows a
+lighted half to the sun}. If the moon is rising when the sun
+is setting, or the sun is rising when the moon is setting,
+the observer must be standing directly between them, or
+approximately so. With the sun at your back in the east
+and facing the moon in the west, you see the moon as

+\Paragraph{\nbstretchyspace Centrifugal Force.} The literal meaning of the word
+\index{Centrifugal force@Centrifugal force \indexglossref{Centrifugal force}|(}%
+suggests its current meaning. It comes from the Latin
+\textit{centrum}, center; and
+\textit{fugere}, to flee. A centrifugal
+force is one
+directed away from a
+center. When a stone
+is whirled at the end of
+a string, the pull which
+the stone gives the
+string is called centrifugal
+force. Because
+of the inertia of the
+stone, the whirling
+motion given to it
+by the arm tends to
+make it fly off in a straight line (Fig.~\figureref{i012}{5}),---and this
+it will do if the string breaks. The measure of the
+centrifugal force is the tension on the string. If the
+string be fastened at the end of a spring scale and the
+%% -----File: 013.png---Folio 14-------
+stone whirled, the scale will show the amount of the centrifugal
+force which is given the stone by the arm that
+whirls it. \nblabel{page:14}The amount of this force\footnotemark~($C$) varies with the
+ \footnotetext{On the use of symbols, such as~$C$ for centrifugal force, $\phi$ for latitude,
+etc., see Appendix, p.~\pageref{page:307}.}
+mass of the body~($m$), its velocity~($v$), and the radius
+of the circle~($r$) in which it moves, in the following ratio:
+\[
+C = \frac{mv^2}{r}.
+\]
+
+The instant that the speed becomes such that the available
+strength of the string is less than the value of $\dfrac{mv^2}{r}$,
+however slightly, the stone will cease to follow the curve
+and will immediately take a motion at a uniform speed
+in the straight line with which its motion happened to
+coincide at that instant (a tangent to the circle at the point
+reached at that moment).
+
+\Subparagraph{Centrifugal Force on the Surface of the Earth.}\nblabel{page:14b} The
+rotating earth imparts to every portion of it, save along
+the axis, a centrifugal force which varies according to the
+foregoing formula, $r$~being the distance to the axis, or the
+radius of the parallel. It is obvious that on the surface
+of the earth the centrifugal force due to its rotation is
+greatest at the equator and zero at the poles.
+
+At the equator centrifugal force~($C$) amounts to about
+$\frac{1}{289}$ that of the earth's attraction~($g$), and thus an object
+there which weighs $288$~pounds is lightened just one pound
+by centrifugal force, that is, it would weigh $289$~pounds
+were the earth at rest. At latitude~30°, $C = \dfrac{g}{385}$ (that is,
+%% -----File: 014.png---Folio 15-------
+centrifugal force is $\tfrac{1}{385}$ the force of the earth's attraction);
+at~45°, $C = \dfrac{g}{578}$; at~60°, $C = \dfrac{g}{1156}$.
+
+For any latitude the ``lightening effect'' of centrifugal
+force due to the earth's rotation equals $\dfrac{g}{289}$~times the
+square of the cosine of the latitude ($C = \dfrac{g}{289} × \cos^2 \phi$).
+By referring to the \hyperref[page:311]{table of cosines} in the Appendix, the
+student can easily calculate the ``lightening'' influence
+of centrifugal force at his own latitude. For example,
+say the latitude of the observer is~40°.
+\[
+\operatorname{Cosine} 40° = .7660.\qquad \frac{g}{289} × .7660^2 = \frac{g}{492}.
+\]
+
+Thus the earth's attraction for an object on its surface
+at latitude~40° is 492~times as great as centrifugal force
+there, and an object weighing~491 pounds at that latitude
+would weigh one pound more were the earth at rest.\footnote
+ {These calculations are based upon a spherical earth and make no
+ allowances for the oblateness.}
+
+\Paragraph{Centripetal Force.} A centripetal (\textit{centrum}, center; \textit{petere},
+\index{Centripetal force@Centripetal force \indexglossref{Centripetal force}}%
+to seek) force is one directed toward a center, that is, at
+right angles to the direction of motion of a body. To
+distinguish between centrifugal force and centripetal
+force, the student should realize that forces never occur
+singly but only in pairs and that in any force action there
+are always \emph{two bodies} concerned. Name them $A$~and~$B$.
+Suppose~$A$ pushes or pulls~$B$ with a certain strength.
+This cannot occur except~$B$ pushes or pulls~$A$ by the same
+amount and in the opposite direction. This is only a
+simple way of stating Newton's third law that to every
+\index{Newton, Isaac}%
+%% -----File: 015.png---Folio 16-------
+action ($A$~on~$B$) there corresponds an equal and opposite
+reaction ($B$~on~$A$).
+
+Centrifugal force is the \emph{reaction} of the body against the
+centripetal force which holds it in a curved path, and it
+\index{Centripetal force@Centripetal force \indexglossref{Centripetal force}}%
+must always exactly equal the centripetal force. In the
+case of a stone whirled at the end of a string, the necessary
+force which the string exerts on the stone to keep it in a
+curved path is centripetal force, and the reaction of the
+stone upon the string is centrifugal force.
+
+The formulas for centripetal force are exactly the same
+as those for centrifugal force. Owing to the rotation of
+the earth, a body at the equator describes a circle with
+uniform speed. The attraction of the earth supplies the
+centripetal force required to hold it in the circle. The
+earth's attraction is greatly in excess of that which is
+required, being, in fact, 289~times the amount needed.
+\emph{The centripetal force in this case is that portion of the attraction
+which is used to hold the object in the circular course.}
+The excess is what we call the weight of the body or the
+force of gravity.
+
+If, therefore, a spring balance suspending a body at the
+equator shows 288~pounds, we infer that the earth really
+pulls it with a force of 289~pounds, but one pound of this
+pull is expended in changing the direction of the motion
+of the body, that is, the value of centripetal force is one
+pound. The body pulls the earth to the same extent,
+that is, the centrifugal force is also one pound. At the
+poles neither centripetal nor centrifugal force is exerted
+upon bodies and hence the weight of a body there is the
+full measure of the attraction of the earth.

+is constantly drawing toward itself every other particle
+\index{Centrifugal force@Centrifugal force \indexglossref{Centrifugal force}|)}%
+%% -----File: 016.png---Folio 17-------
+of matter, however distant. The amount of this attractive
+force existing between two bodies depends upon
+(1)~the amount of matter in them, and (2)~the distance
+they are apart.
+
+\fussy
+There are thus two laws of gravitation. The first law,
+the greater the mass, or amount of matter, the greater the
+attraction, is due to the fact that each particle of matter
+has its own independent attractive force, and the more
+there are of the particles,
+the greater
+is the combined
+attraction.
+
+\Subparagraph{The Second Law
+Explained.} In general
+terms the law
+is that the nearer
+an object is, the
+greater is its attractive
+force. Just
+as the heat and
+light of a flame are
+greater the nearer one gets to it (Fig.~\figureref{i016-1}{6}), because more rays
+are intercepted, so the nearer an object is, the greater is its
+attraction. The ratio of the increase of the power of gravitation
+as distance decreases, may be seen from Figures~\figureref{i016-2}{7} and~\figureref{i017}{8}.
+%% -----File: 017.png---Folio 18-------

+\includegraphicsmid{i016-2}{Fig.~7}
+\includegraphicsmid{i017}{Fig.~8}
+
+Two lines, $AD$ and $AH$ (Fig.~\figureref{i016-2}{7}), are twice as far apart
+at~$C$ as at~$B$ because twice as far away; three times as far
+apart at~$D$ as at~$B$ because three times as far away, etc.
+Now light radiates out in every direction, so that light
+coming from point~$A'$ (Fig.~\figureref{i017}{8}), when it reaches~$B'$ will be
+spread over the square of~$B' F'$\DPtypo{}{;}
+at~$C'$, on the square~$C' G'$;
+at~$D'$ on the square~$D' H'$, etc. $C'$~being twice as far
+away from~$A'$ as~$B'$, the side~$C' G'$ is twice that of~$B' F'$,
+as we observed in Fig.~\figureref{i016-2}{7}, and its square is four times as
+great. Line~$D' H'$ is three times as far away, is three
+times as long, and its square is nine times as great. The
+light being spread over more space in the more distant
+objects, it will light up a given area less. The square
+at~$B'$ receives all the light within the four radii, the
+same square at~$C'$ receives one fourth of it, at~$D'$ one
+ninth, etc. The amount of light \emph{decreases as the square of
+the distance increases}. The force of gravitation is exerted
+in every direction and varies in exactly the same way.
+Thus the second law of gravitation is that the force varies
+\index{Gravitation|)}%
+inversely as the square of the distance.
+
+\Paragraph{Gravity.} The earth's attractive influence is called
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}}%
+\emph{gravity}. The weight of an object is simply the measure of
+%% -----File: 018.png---Folio 19-------
+the force of gravity. An object on or above the surface
+of the earth weighs less as it is moved away from the
+center of gravity.\footnote
+ {For a more accurate and detailed discussion of gravity, see p.~\pageref{sec:gravity}.}
+It is difficult to realize that what we
+call the weight of an object is simply the excess of attraction
+which the earth possesses for it as compared with
+other forces acting upon it, and that it is a purely relative
+affair, the same object having a different weight in different
+places in the solar system. Thus the same pound-weight
+taken from the earth to the sun's surface would weigh $27$~pounds there, only one sixth of a pound at the surface of
+\index{Sun}%
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on sun}%
+the moon, over $2\tfrac{1}{2}$~pounds on Jupiter, etc. If the earth
+\index{Jupiter}%
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Jupiter}%
+were more dense, objects would weigh more on the surface.
+Thus if the earth retained its present size but contained as
+much matter as the sun has, the strongest man in the world
+could not lift a silver half dollar, for it would then weigh
+over five tons. A pendulum clock would then tick $575$~times
+as fast. On the other hand, if the earth were no
+denser than the sun, a half dollar would weigh only a
+trifle more than a dime now weighs, and a pendulum clock
+would tick only half as fast.
+
+From the table on p.~\pageref{page:266} giving the masses and distances
+of the sun, moon, and principal planets, many
+\index{Planets}%
+interesting problems involving the laws of gravitation
+may be suggested. To illustrate, let us take the problem
+``What would you weigh if you were on the moon?''
+
+\Paragraph{Weight on the Moon.}\nblabel{page:19} The mass of the moon, that is,
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on moon}%
+the amount of matter in it, is $\tfrac{1}{81}$ that of the earth.
+Were it the same size as the earth and had this mass, one
+pound on the earth would weigh a little less than one
+eightieth of a pound there. According to the first law of
+gravitation we have this proportion:
+
+1. $\text{Earth's attraction} : \text{Moon's attraction} \dblcolon 1 : \tfrac{1}{81}$.
+%% -----File: 019.png---Folio 20-------
+
+But the radius of the moon is $1081$~miles, only a little
+more than one fourth that of the earth. Since a person
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on moon}%
+on the moon would be so much nearer the center of gravity
+than he is on the earth, he would weigh much more there
+than here if the moon had the same mass as the earth.
+According to the second law of gravitation we have this
+proportion:
+
+2. $\text{Earth's attraction} : \text{Moon's attraction} \dblcolon \dfrac{1}{4000^2} : \dfrac{1}{1081^2}$. %[**TN: Indentation matched to 1. above]
+
+We have then the two proportions:
+\begin{align*}
+\text{1.\quad Att.\ Earth} : \text{Att.\ Moon} &\dblcolon 1 : \tfrac{1}{81}.\\
+\text{2.\quad Att.\ Earth} : \text{Att.\ Moon} &\dblcolon \dfrac{1}{4000^2} : \dfrac{1}{1081^2}.
+\end{align*}
+
+Combining these by multiplying, we get
+\[
+\text{Att.\ Earth} : \text{Att.\ Moon} \dblcolon 6 : 1.
+\]
+
+Therefore six pounds on the earth would weigh only
+one pound on the moon. Your weight, then, divided by
+six, represents what it would be on the moon. There
+you could jump six times as high---if you could live to
+jump at all on that cold and almost airless satellite (see

+\Paragraph{Shifting of Stars and Difference in Time.} The proof
+which first demonstrated the curvature of the earth, and
+one which the student should clearly understand, is the
+disappearance of stars from the southern horizon and the
+rising higher of stars from the northern horizon to persons
+traveling north, and the sinking of northern stars and the
+rising of southern stars to south-bound travelers. After
+people had traveled far enough north and south to make
+an appreciable difference in the position of stars, they
+observed this apparent rising and sinking of the sky. Now
+two travelers, one going north and the other going south,
+will see the sky apparently elevated and depressed at the
+same time; that is, the portion of the sky that is rising for
+one will be sinking for the other. Since it is impossible
+that the stars be both rising and sinking at the same
+time, only one conclusion can follow,---the movement of
+the stars is apparent, and the path traveled north and
+south must be curved.
+
+Owing to the rotation of the earth one sees the same
+stars in different positions in the sky east and west, so the
+proof just given simply shows that the earth is curved in
+a north and south direction. Only when timepieces were
+invented which could carry the time of one place to different
+portions of the earth could the apparent positions
+of the stars prove the curvature of the earth east and
+west. By means of the telegraph and telephone we

+\Paragraph{Actual Measurement.} Actual measurement in many

+uniform curvature in the different directions. In

+
+A simple rule for finding the amount of curvature for
+any given distance is the following:
+
+\emph{Square the number of miles representing the distance, and
+two thirds of this number represents in feet the departure
+from a straight line.}
+
+Suppose the distance is $1$~mile. That number squared
+is~$1$, and two thirds of that number of feet is $8$~inches.
+Thus an allowance of $8$~inches must be made for $1$~mile.
+If the distance is $2$~miles, that number squared is~$4$, and
+two thirds of $4$~feet is $2$~feet, $8$~inches. An object, then,
+$1$~mile away sinks $8$ inches below the level line, and at $2$~miles
+it is below $2$~feet, $8$~inches.
+
+To find the distance, the height from a level line being
+given, we have the converse of the foregoing rule:
+
+\emph{Multiply the number representing the height in feet by~$1\tfrac{1}{2}$,

+\Paragraph{Richer's Discovery.} In the year 1672 John Richer, the
+astronomer to the Royal Academy of Sciences of Paris,
+was sent by Louis~XIV to the island of Cayenne to make
+certain astronomical observations. His Parisian clock had
+its pendulum, slightly over $39$~inches long, regulated to
+beat seconds. Shortly after his arrival at Cayenne, he
+noticed that the clock was losing time, about two and a
+half minutes a day. Gravity, evidently, did not act with
+so much force near the equator as it did at Paris. The
+astronomer found it necessary to shorten the pendulum
+nearly a quarter of an inch to get it to swing fast enough.
+%% -----File: 028.png---Folio 29-------
+
+Richer reported these interesting facts to his colleagues
+\index{Richer@Richer (re\;sh\={a}y$'$), John}%
+at Paris, and it aroused much discussion. At first it was
+thought that greater centrifugal force at the equator,
+\index{Centrifugal force@Centrifugal force \indexglossref{Centrifugal force}}%
+counteracting the earth's attraction more there than elsewhere,
+was the explanation. The difference in the force
+of gravity, however, was soon discovered to be too great
+to be thus accounted for. The only other conclusion was
+that Cayenne must be farther from the center of gravity
+\index{Cayenne@Cayenne (k\u{\i}\;\u{e}n$'$), French Guiana}%
+than Paris (see the discussion of Gravity, Appendix,
+\index{Paris, France}%
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}}%
+p.~\pageref{sec:gravity}; also Historical Sketch, pp.~\pageref{page:273}--\pageref{page:275}).
+
+Repeated experiments show it to be a general fact that
+pendulums swing faster on the surface of the earth as one
+approaches the poles. Careful measurements of arcs of
+meridians prove beyond question that the earth is flattened
+toward the poles, somewhat like an oblate spheroid.
+Further evidence is found in the fact that the sun and
+planets, so far as ascertained, show this same flattening.
+\index{Proofs, form of earth|)}%
+
+\Paragraph{Cause of Oblateness.} The cause of the oblateness is
+the rotation of the body, its flattening effects being more
+marked in earlier plastic stages, as the earth and other
+planets are generally believed to have been at one time.
+The reason why rotation causes an equatorial bulging
+is not difficult to understand. Centrifugal force increases
+away from the poles toward the equator and gives a lifting
+or lightening influence to portions on the surface. If the
+earth were a sphere, an object weighting $289$~pounds at
+the poles would be lightened just one pound if carried to
+the swiftly rotating equator (see p.~\pageref{page:280}). The form given
+the earth by its rotation is called an oblate spheroid or an
+ellipsoid of rotation.
+
+\Paragraph{Amount of Oblateness.} To represent a meridian circle
+\index{Meridian}%
+\index{Diameter of earth|(}%
+accurately, we should represent the polar diameter about
+$\frac{1}{300}$~part shorter than the equatorial diameter. That this
+%% -----File: 029.png---Folio 30-------
+difference is not perceptible to the unaided eye will be
+apparent if the construction of such a figure is attempted,
+say ten inches in diameter in one direction and $\frac{1}{30}$~of an
+inch less in the opposite direction. The oblateness of
+Saturn is easily perceptible, being thirty times as great as
+\index{Saturn}%
+that of the earth, or one tenth (see p.~\pageref{page:257}). Thus an
+ellipsoid nine inches in polar diameter (minor axis) and
+ten inches in equatorial diameter (major axis) would represent
+the form of that planet.
+
+Although the oblateness of the earth seems slight when
+represented on a small scale and for most purposes may be
+ignored, it is nevertheless of vast importance in many
+problems in surveying, astronomy, and other subjects.
+Under the discussion of \hyperref[page:282]{latitude} it will be shown how this
+oblateness makes a difference in the lengths of degrees of
+latitude, and in the Appendix it is shown how this equatorial
+bulging shortens the length of the year and changes
+the inclination of the earth's axis (see \hyperref[page:286]{Precession of the
+Equinoxes} and \hyperref[page:286a]{Motions of the Earth's Axis}).
+
+\Paragraph{Dimensions of the Spheroid.}\nblabel{page:30} It is of very great importance

+in many ways that astronomers and surveyors know
+as exactly as possible the dimensions of the spheroid.
+Many men have made estimates based upon astronomical

+most widely used is the one made by A.~R. Clarke, for many

+
+\Paragraph{Equator Elliptical.} Pendulum experiments and measurements

+\Paragraph{Area Method of Determining Form of the Earth.} ``The

+the area method is illustrated by supposing that the workman
+is given a piece of sheet metal cut to the outline of
+the continuous triangulation which is supplied with necessary
+astronomic observations, and accurately molded to fix
+the curvature of the geoid, as shown by the astronomic
+observations, and that the workman is then requested to

+for each arc usually treated as a line is really a belt of
+considerable width which is now utilized fully. It is obvious
+that the workman would succeed much better in constructing
+accurately the required ellipsoid of revolution
+from the one bent sheet than from the several bent wires.

+furnish a remarkably strong determination of the figure

+
+It is possible that at some distant time in the future the

+\Paragraph{Origin of Terms.} Students often have difficulty in
+remembering whether it is latitude that is measured east
+and west, or longitude. When we recall the fact that
+to the people who first used these terms the earth was
+believed to be longer east and west than north and south,
+and now we know that owing to the oblateness of the
+earth this is actually the case, we can easily remember that
+longitude (from the Latin \textit{longus}, long) is measured east
+and west. The word latitude is from the Latin \textit{latitudo},
+which is from \textit{latus}, wide, and was originally used to
+designate measurement of the ``width of the earth,'' or
+north and south.

+a meridian numbered at the top of the map as $90°$~west
+\index{Map}%
+\index{Meridian!prime}%
+from Greenwich, is numbered at the bottom as $13°$~west
+from Washington. Since the United States Naval Observatory,
+the point in Washington reckoned from, is $77°~3'~81''$
+west from Greenwich, this is slightly inaccurate.
+Among all English speaking people and in most nations of
+the world, unless otherwise designated, the longitude of a
+place is understood to be reckoned from Greenwich.
+
+\emph{The longitude of a place} is the arc of the parallel intercepted
+between it and the prime meridian. Longitude
+may also be defined as the arc of the equator intercepted
+between the prime meridian and the meridian of the
+place whose longitude is sought.
+
+Since longitude is measured on parallels, and parallels
+grow smaller toward the poles, degrees of longitude are
+shorter toward the poles, being degrees of smaller circles.

+\index{Curvature of surface of earth, rate of}%
+\index{Rate of curvature of earth's surface}%
+one would have to travel less distance on a meridian there

+travel farther there

+While all circles
+have~$360°$, the degrees
+of a small
+circle are, of course,
+shorter than the degrees of a greater circle. Now an
+arc of a meridian near the equator is obviously a part
+of a smaller circle than an arc taken near the poles and,
+consequently, the degrees are shorter. Near the poles,
+because of the flatness of a meridian there, an arc of a

+longer. As we travel northward, the North star (polestar)

+\Paragraph{Celestial Sphere seems to Rotate.} The earth rotates on
+its axis (the term rotation applied to the earth refers to
+its daily or axial motion). To us, however, the earth
+seems stationary and the celestial sphere seems to rotate.
+Standing in the center of a room and turning one's body
+around, the objects in the room seem to rotate around in
+the opposite direction. The point overhead will be the
+only one that is stationary. Imagine a fly on a rotating
+sphere. If it were on one of the poles, that is, at the end
+of the axis of rotation, the object directly above it would
+constantly remain above it while every other fixed object
+would seem to swing around in circles. Were the fly to
+walk to the equator, the point directly away from the
+globe would cut the largest circle around him and the
+stationary points would be along the horizon.
+
+\Paragraph{Celestial Pole.} The point in the celestial sphere directly
+\index{Celestial latitude!pole}%
+\index{Pole, celestial}%
+above the pole and in line with the axis has no motion.
+It is called the celestial pole. The star nearest the pole
+of the celestial sphere and directly above the north pole
+of the earth is called the North star, and the star nearest
+\index{North, line!star@star\phantomsection\label{idx:ns}}%
+the southern celestial pole the South star. It may be of
+\index{South, on map!star|(}%
+interest to note that as we located the North star by reference
+%% -----File: 046.png---Folio 47-------
+to the Big Dipper, the South star is located by reference

+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!celestial}%
+\index{Celestial equator}%
+around the celestial sphere $90°$~from
+the poles (Fig.~\figureref{i046-1}{20}). This
+is called the \emph{celestial equator}.
+The axis of the earth, if prolonged,
+would pierce the celestial

+the equator of the earth if extended
+would coincide with the

+\Paragraph{At the North Pole.} An

+observer at the north pole
+will see the North star almost exactly overhead, and
+as the earth turns around under his feet it will remain

+the North star, is the celestial equator around the
+\index{North, line!star@star\phantomsection\label{idx:ns}}%

+around the sky seem
+to swing in circles in
+the opposite direction.

+paths are parallel to
+the horizon. The
+same half of the celestial sphere can be seen all of the
+time, and stars below the horizon always remain so.

+swinging eternally around in courses parallel to the
+horizon. When the sun, moon, and planets are in the
+portion of their courses north of the celestial equator,
+they, of course, will be seen throughout continued rotations
+of the earth until they pass below the celestial equator,
+when they will remain invisible again for long periods.
+
+The direction of the daily apparent rotation of the stars
+is from left to right (westward), the direction of the
+hands of a clock looked at from above. Lest the direction
+of rotation at the North pole be a matter of memory
+rather than of insight, we may notice that in the United
+States and Canada when we face southward we see the
+\index{United States}%
+\index{Canada}%
+sun's daily course in the direction left to right (westward),
+and going poleward the direction remains the same though
+the sun approaches the horizon more and more as we
+approach the North pole.
+
+\includegraphicsright{i048-1}{Fig.~22}
+
+\Paragraph{At the South Pole.} An observer at the South pole, at
+the other end of the axis, will see the South star directly
+overhead, the celestial equator on the horizon, and the
+plane of the star circles parallel with the horizon. The
+direction of the apparent rotation of the celestial sphere
+is from right to left, counter-clockwise. If a star is seen
+at one's right on the horizon at six o'clock in the morning,
+at noon it will be in front, at about six o'clock at night at
+his left, at midnight behind him, and at about six o'clock
+in the morning at his right again.
+
+\Paragraph{At the Equator.} An observer at the equator sees the
+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!terrestrial}%
+stars in the celestial sphere to be very different in their
+positions in relation to himself. Remembering that he is
+%% -----File: 048.png---Folio 49-------
+standing with the line of his body at right angles to the
+axis of the earth, it is easy to understand why all the stars
+of the celestial sphere seem to be shifted around $90°$ from
+where they were at the poles. The celestial equator is a
+great circle extending
+from east to west directly
+overhead. The
+North star is seen
+on the northern horizon
+and the South
+star on the southern
+\index{South, on map!star|)}%
+\index{North, line!star@star\phantomsection\label{idx:ns}}%
+horizon. The planes
+of the circles followed
+by stars in their daily
+orbits cut the horizon
+at right angles, the horizon being parallel to the axis. At
+the equator one can see the entire celestial sphere, half at
+one time and the other half about twelve hours later.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i048-2}{Fig.~23}
+
+\Paragraph{Between Equator
+and Poles.} At places
+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!terrestrial}%
+between the equator
+and the poles, the observer
+is liable to feel
+that a star rising due
+east ought to pass
+the zenith about six
+hours later instead
+of swinging slantingly
+around as it actually
+seems to do. This is because one forgets that the axis
+is not squarely under his feet excepting when at the
+equator. There, and there only, is the axis at right
+angles to the line of one's body when erect. The
+%% -----File: 049.png---Folio 50-------
+apparent rotation of the celestial sphere is at right angles
+to the axis.
+
+\Paragraph{Photographing the Celestial Sphere.} Because of the
+\index{Photographing}%
+earth's rotation, the entire celestial sphere seems to rotate.
+Thus we see stars daily circling around, the polestar
+always stationary. When stars are photographed, long
+exposures are necessary that their faint light may affect
+the sensitive plate of the camera, and the photographic
+instruments must be constructed so that they will move
+at the same rate and in the same direction as the stars,
+otherwise the stars will leave trails on the plate. When
+the photographic instrument thus follows the stars in
+their courses, each is shown as a speck on the plate and
+comets, meteors, planets, or asteroids, moving at different
+\index{Asteroids}%
+\index{Comets}%
+\index{Meteors}%
+\index{Planets}%
+rates and in different directions, show as traces.
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation of Celestial Sphere is Only Apparent.} For a long
+time it was believed that the heavenly bodies rotated
+around the stationary earth as the center. It was only
+about five hundred years ago that the astronomer Copernicus
+\index{Copernicus@Copernicus (k\={o}\;per$'$n\u{\i}\;k\u{u}s)}%
+established the fact that the motion of the sun and
+stars around the earth is only apparent, the earth rotating.
+We may be interested in some proofs that this is the case.
+It seems hard to believe at first that this big earth, $25,000$
+miles in circumference can turn around once in a day.
+``Why, that would give us a whirling motion of over a
+thousand miles an hour at the equator.'' ``Who could
+stick to a merry-go-round going at the rate of a thousand
+miles an hour?'' When we see, however, that the sun
+$93,000,000$ miles away, would have to swing around in a
+course of over $580,000,000$ miles per day, and the stars, at
+their tremendous distances, would have to move at unthinkable
+rates of speed, we see that it is far easier to believe
+that it is the earth and not the celestial sphere that rotates

+daily. We know by direct observation that other planets,
+the sun and the moon, rotate upon their axis, and may
+reasonably infer that the earth does too.
+
+So far as the whirling motion at the equator is concerned,
+it does give bodies a slight tendency to fly off, but the
+amount of this force is only $\tfrac{1}{289}$ as great as the attractive
+influence of the earth; that is, an object which would
+weigh $289$~pounds at the equator, were the earth at rest,
+weighs a pound less because of the centrifugal force of

+\index{Foucault@Foucault (foo\;ko$'$), experiment, with gyroscope!with pendulum|(}%
+\index{Pendulum clock}%
+of the earth's rotation is by the celebrated Foucault
+experiment. In~1851, the French physicist, M.~Leon Foucault,
+suspended from the dome of the Pantheon, in Paris,
+\index{Paris, France}%
+a heavy iron ball by wire two hundred feet long. A pin
+was fastened to the lowest
+side of the ball so that when

+mark in a layer of sand placed
+beneath it. Carefully the
+long pendulum was set swinging.
+It was found that the

+plane or the building was
+gradually turned around. By

+\Subparagraph{Conditions for Success.} The Foucault experiment has
+been made in many places at different times. To be successful
+there should be a long slender wire, say forty feet
+or more in length, down the well of a stairway. The weight
+suspended should be heavy and spherical so that the
+impact against the air may not cause it to slide to one
+side, and there
+should be protection
+against drafts
+of air. A good sized
+circle, marked off
+in degrees, should
+be placed under it,
+with the center
+exactly under the
+ball when at rest.
+From the rate of

+latitude may be

+latitude, the deviation
+may be calculated.
+
+\Subparagraph{To Calculate Amount of Deviation.} At first thought
+it might seem as though the floor would turn completely
+around under the pendulum in a day, regardless of the
+latitude. It will be readily seen, however, that it is only
+\index{Latitude@Latitude \indexglossref{Latitude}\phantomsection\label{idx:lt}!geographical!determined by Foucault experiment}%
+at the pole that the earth would make one complete rotation
+under the pendulum in one day\index{Sidereal, clock!day}%

+or show a deviation
+of $15°$ in an hour. At the equator the pendulum will
+show no deviation, and at intermediate latitudes the rate
+%% -----File: 055.png---Folio 56-------
+of deviation varies. Now the ratio of variation from the
+pole considered as \emph{one} and the equator as \emph{zero} is shown
+in the table of ``natural sines'' (p.~\pageref{page:311}). It can be
+demonstrated that the number of degrees the plane of the
+pendulum will deviate in one hour at any latitude is found
+\index{Latitude@Latitude \indexglossref{Latitude}\phantomsection\label{idx:lt}!geographical!determined by Foucault experiment}%
+by multiplying $15°$~by the sine of the latitude.
+\begin{align*}
+d &= \text{deviation}\\
+\phi &= \text{latitude}\\
+\therefore\quad d&= \sin \phi × 15°.
+\end{align*}
+Whether or not the student has a very clear conception of
+what is meant by ``the sine of the latitude'' he may easily
+calculate the deviation or the latitude where such a pendulum
+experiment is made.
+
+\Subparagraph{Example.} Suppose the latitude is~$40°$. Sine~$40° = .6428$.
+The hourly deviation at that latitude, then, is
+$.6428 × 15°$ or $9.64°$. Since the pendulum deviates~$9.64°$
+in one hour, for the entire circuit it will take as many
+hours as that number of degrees is contained in~$360°$ or
+about $37\frac{1}{3}$~hours. It is just as simple to calculate one's
+latitude if the amount of deviation for one hour is known.
+Suppose the plane of the pendulum is observed to deviate
+$9°$~in an hour.
+\begin{align*}
+\text{Sine of the latitude} &× 15° = 9°.\\
+\therefore \quad \text{Sine of the latitude}
+ &= \tfrac{9}{15} \quad \text{or} \quad.6000.
+\end{align*}
+From the \hyperref[page:311]{table of sines} we find that this sine, $.6000$, corresponds
+more nearly to that of~$37°$ ($.6018$) than to the sine
+of any other whole degree, and hence $37°$~is the latitude
+where the hourly deviation is~$9°$. At that latitude it would
+take forty hours ($360 ÷ 9 = 40$) for the pendulum to
+make the entire circuit.

+extending from due east through the zenith to due west,
+is the celestial equator. If we travel northward we shall
+be able to see objects which were heretofore hidden from
+view by the curvature of the earth. We shall find that
+the South star becomes hidden from sight for the same
+reason and the North star seems to rise in the sky. The
+celestial equator no longer extends through the point
+directly overhead but is somewhat to the south of the
+zenith, though it still intersects the horizon at the east
+and west points. As we go farther north this rising of
+the northern sky and sinking of the southern sky becomes
+greater. If we go halfway to the north pole we shall find
+the North star halfway between the zenith and the northern
+horizon, or at an altitude of~$45°$ above the horizon. For
+every degree of curvature of the earth we pass over,
+going northward, the North star rises one degree from
+the horizon. At New Orleans the North star is $30°$~from
+\index{New Orleans, La.}%
+the horizon, for the city is $30°$~from the equator. At
+Philadelphia, $40°$~north latitude, the North star is $40°$~from
+\index{Philadelphia, Pa.}%
+the horizon. South of the equator the converse of
+this is true. The North star sinks from the horizon and
+the South star rises as one travels southward from the
+\index{South, on map!star}%
+equator. \emph{The altitude of the North star is the latitude of
+a place north of the equator and the altitude of the South

+the problem of determining the altitude of the celestial
+pole.
+
+\Paragraph{To Find Your Latitude.} By means of the compasses

+Another simple process for ascertaining latitude is to
+determine the altitude of a star not far from the North
+star when it is highest and when it is lowest; the average
+of these altitudes is the altitude of the pole, or the latitude.
+This may easily be done in latitudes north of~$38°$ during
+the winter, observing, say, at $6$~o'clock in the morning
+and at $6$~o'clock in the evening. This is simple in that

+does the time of sunrise vary, but the time it takes the sun

+which he had not changed. Since his watch indicated

+be $6 × 15°$, or~$90°$, west of London. While on shipboard

+to the sun at the place whose longitude is sought and
+comparing that time with the time of the prime meridian
+as indicated by the chronometer, the longitude is reckoned.
+For example, suppose the time according to the
+sun is found by observation to be 9:30~o'clock,~\AM, and
+the chronometer indicates 11:20~o'clock,~\AM. The prime
+meridian, then, must be east as it has later time. Since
+the difference in time is one hour and fifty minutes and
+there are $15°$~difference in longitude for an hour's difference
+in time, the difference in longitude must be $1\frac{5}{6} × 15°$,
+or~$27°~30'$.
+
+The relation of longitude and time should be thoroughly
+mastered. From the \hyperref[page:88]{table} at the close of this chapter,
+giving the longitude, of the principal cities of the world,
+one can determine the time it is in those places when it is
+noon at home. Many other problems may also be suggested.
+It should be borne in mind that it is the \emph{mean
+solar time} that is thus considered, which in most cities is
+not the time indicated by the watches and clocks there.

+\Paragraph{Origin of Present System.} Before the year~1883, the
+\index{Time@Time \indexglossref{Time}, apparent solar!confusion}%
+people of different cities in the United States commonly

+used the local time of the meridian passing through the city.
+Prior to the advent of the railroad, telegraph, and telephone,
+little inconvenience was occasioned by the prevalence of so
+many time systems. But as transportation and communication
+became rapid and complex it became very difficult to
+adjust one's time and calculations according to so many
+standards as came to prevail. Each railroad had its own
+arbitrary system of time, and where there were several
+railroads in a city there were usually as many species of
+``railroad time'' besides the local time according to
+longitude.
+
+``Before the adoption of standard time there were sometimes
+as many as five different kinds of time in use in a
+single town. The railroads of the United States followed
+fifty-three different standards, whereas they now use five.

+As a result of his untiring efforts the railway associations

+cities approximately within $7\frac{1}{2}°$ of the 75th meridian use
+the mean solar time of that meridian, the clocks and

+Greenwich. This belt, about $15°$ wide, is called the eastern
+\index{Greenwich@Greenwich (Am.\ pron., gr\u{e}n$'$\;w\u{\i}ch; Eng.\ pron., gr\u{\i}n$'$\u{\i}j; or gr\u{e}n$'$\u{\i}j), England}%
+standard time belt. The 75th meridian passes through the
+eastern portion of Philadelphia, so the time used throughout
+the eastern portion of the United States corresponds
+to Philadelphia local mean solar time.%
+\index{Philadelphia, Pa.}%
+
+\Paragraph{Central Standard Time.} The time of the next belt is the
+\index{Central time, in Europe!in the United States}%
+mean solar time of the 90th meridian or one hour slower
+than eastern standard time. This meridian passes through
+or very near Madison, Wisconsin, St.~Louis, and New
+\index{St.~Louis, Mo.}%

+Orleans, where mean local time is the same as standard
+time. When it is noon at Washington, D.~C, it is $11$~o'clock, \AM,
+\index{Washington, D. C.}%
+at Chicago, because the people of the former
+\index{Chicago, Ill.}%
+city use eastern standard time and those at the latter use
+central standard time.
+
+\Paragraph{Mountain Standard Time.} To the west of the central
+\index{Mountain time belt}%
+standard time belt lies the mountain region where the
+time used is the mean solar time of the 105th meridian.
+This meridian passes through Denver, Colorado, and its
+\index{Denver, Col.}%
+\index{Colorado}%
+clocks as a consequence indicate the same time that the
+mean sun does there. As the standard time map shows,
+all the belts are bounded by irregular lines, due to the
+fact that the people of a city usually use the same time
+that their principal railroads do, and where trains change
+their time depends in a large measure upon the convenience
+%% -----File: 067.png---Folio 68-------
+to be served. This belt shows the anomaly of being
+bounded on the east by the central time belt, on the west
+by the Pacific time belt, and on the \emph{south} by the same belts.

+\index{Panama}%
+\index{United States}%
+established in August,~1865. The Naval Observatories at
+\index{United States Naval Observatory|(}%
+Washington, D.~C., and Mare Island, California, send out
+the signals during the five minutes preceding noon each
+day.
+
+It is a common custom for astronomical observatories to
+correct their own clocks by careful observations of the stars.
+The Washington Observatory sends telegraphic signals to
+all the cities east of the Rocky Mountains and the Mare
+Island Observatory to Pacific cities and Alaska. A few

+\index{Time@Time \indexglossref{Time}, apparent solar!how determined}%
+\Subparagraph{How Time is Determined at the United States Naval
+Observatory.} The general plan of correcting clocks at the
+United States Naval Observatories by stellar observations
+is as follows: A telescope called a meridian transit is situated
+\index{Transit instrument}%
+in a true north-south direction mounted on an east-west
+axis so that it can be rotated in the plane of the
+meridian but not in the slightest degree to the east or
+west. Other instruments used are the chronograph and
+the sidereal clock. The chronograph is an instrument
+\index{Clock, sidereal}%
+\index{Sidereal, clock}%
+\index{Chronograph@Chronograph (kr\u{o}n$'$\={o}\;graph)}%
+which may be electrically connected with the clock and
+which automatically makes a mark for each second on a
+sheet of paper fastened to a cylinder. The sidereal clock
+%% -----File: 069.png---Folio 70-------
+is regulated to keep time with the stars---not with the
+sun, as are other clocks. The reason for this is because
+the stars make an apparent circuit with each rotation of
+the earth and this, we have observed, is unerring while
+the sun's apparent motion is quite irregular.
+
+To correct the clock, an equatorial or high zenith star
+is selected. A well known one is chosen since the exact
+time it will cross the meridian of the observer (that is, be
+at its highest point in its apparent daily rotation) must be
+calculated. The chronograph is then started, its pen and
+ink adjusted, and its electrical wires connected with the
+clock. The observer now sights the telescope to the point
+where the expected star will cross his meridian and, with
+his hand on the key, he awaits the appearance of the star.
+As the star crosses each of the eleven hair lines in the field
+of the telescope, the observer presses the key which automatically
+marks upon the chronographic cylinder. Then
+by examining the sheet he can tell at what time, \emph{by the
+clock}, the star crossed the center line. He then calculates
+just what time the clock \emph{should} indicate and the difference
+is the error of the clock. By this means an error of one
+tenth of a second can be discovered.
+
+\Paragraph{The Sidereal Clock.} The following facts concerning the
+\index{Clock, sidereal}%
+\index{Sidereal, clock}%
+sidereal clock may be of interest. It is marked with
+twenty-four hour spaces instead of twelve. Only one
+moment in the year does it indicate the same time as
+ordinary timepieces, which are adjusted to the average sun.
+When the error of the clock is discovered the clock is
+not at once reset because any tampering with the clock
+would involve a slight error. The correction is simply
+noted and the rate of the clock's gaining or losing time is
+calculated so that the true time can be ascertained very
+precisely at any time by referring to the data showing the
+%% -----File: 070.png---Folio 71-------
+clock error when last corrected and the rate at which it
+varies.
+
+A while before noon each day the exact sidereal time is
+calculated; this is converted into local mean solar time and
+this into standard time. The Washington Naval Observatory
+converts this into the standard time of the~75th
+meridian or Eastern time and the Mare Island Observatory
+\index{Eastern time, in Europe!in the United States}%
+\index{Mare Island Naval Observatory}%
+\index{Meridian!standard time}%
+into that of the 120th meridian or Pacific time.
+
+\Paragraph{Sending Time Signals.}\nblabel{page:71} By the coöperation of telegraph
+\index{Signals, time|(}%
+companies, the time signals which are sent out daily from
+the United States Naval Observatories reach practically
+\index{United States}%
+every telegraph station in the country. They are sent
+out at noon, 75th meridian time, from Washington, which
+\index{Washington, D. C.}%
+is 11~o'clock, \AM, in cities using Central time and 10~o'clock, \AM,
+\index{Central time, in Europe!in the United States}%
+where Mountain time prevails; and at noon,
+120th meridian time, they are sent to Pacific coast cities
+from the Mare Island Observatory---three hours after
+Washington has flashed the signal which makes correct
+time accessible to sixty millions of our population living
+east of the Rockies.
+
+Not only are the time signals sent to the telegraph
+stations and thence to railway offices, clock makers and
+repairers, schools, court houses, etc., but the same telegraphic
+signal that marks noon also actually sets many
+thousands of clocks, their hands whether fast or slow automatically
+flying to the true mark in response to the electric
+current. In a number of cities of the United States,
+nineteen at present, huge balls are placed upon towers or
+\index{Time@Time \indexglossref{Time}, apparent solar!ball}%
+buildings and are automatically dropped by the electric
+noon signal. The time ball in Washington is conspicuously
+placed on the top of the State, War, and Navy building
+and may be seen at considerable distances from many
+parts of the city.
+%% -----File: 071.png---Folio 72-------

+A few minutes before noon each day, one wire at each
+telegraphic office is cleared of all business and ``thousands
+of telegraph operators sit in silence, waiting for the click
+of the key which shall tell them that the `master clock'

+wires during each of the five minutes before noon by the
+transmitting clock at the Naval Observatory.
+
+\Subparagraph{Explanation of the Second Beats.} It will be noticed
+that the twenty-ninth second of each minute is omitted.
+This is for the purpose of permitting the observer to
+distinguish, without counting the beats, which is the one
+denoting the middle of each minute; the five seconds at
+the end of each of the first four minutes are omitted to
+mark the beginning of a new minute and the last ten
+seconds of the fifty-ninth minute are omitted to mark
+conspicuously the moment of noon. The omission of the
+%% -----File: 072.png---Folio 73-------
+last ten seconds also enables the operator to connect
+his wire with the clock to be automatically set or the
+time ball to be dropped. The contact marking noon is
+prolonged a full second, not only to make prominent this
+important moment but also to afford sufficient current
+to do the other work which this electric contact must
+perform.
+
+\Subparagraph{Long Distance Signals.} Several times in recent years

+Where different time systems are used in the same
+community, confusion must of necessity result. The
+following editorial comment in the \emph{Official Railway Guide}
+\index{Official Railway Guide|(}%
+for November,~1900, very succinctly sets forth the condition
+which prevailed in Detroit as regards standard and
+\index{Detroit, Mich.}%
+local time.
+
+``The city of Detroit is now passing through an agitation
+which is a reminiscence of those which took place throughout
+%% -----File: 073.png---Folio 74-------
+the country about seventeen years ago, when standard
+time was first adopted. For some reason, which it
+is difficult to explain, the city fathers of Detroit have
+refused to change from the old local time to the standard,
+notwithstanding the fact that all of the neighboring cities---Cleveland,
+Toledo, Columbus, Cincinnati, etc.,---in
+\index{Cincinnati, O.}%
+\index{Cleveland, O.}%
+\index{Columbus, O.}%
+\index{Toledo, O.}%
+practically the same longitude, had made the change years
+ago and realized the benefits of so doing. The business
+men of Detroit and visitors to that city have been for a
+long time laboring under many disadvantages owing to
+the confusion of standards, and they have at last taken
+the matter into their own hands and a lively campaign,
+with the coöperation of the newspapers, has been
+organized during the past two months. Many of the
+hotels have adopted standard time, regardless of the
+city, and the authorities of Wayne County, in which
+Detroit is situated, have also decided to hold court on
+Central Standard time, as that is the official standard of
+\index{Central time, in Europe!in the United States}%
+the state of Michigan. The authorities of the city have
+\index{Michigan}%
+so far not taken action. It is announced in the newspapers
+that they probably will do so after the election,
+and by that time, if progress continues to be made, the
+only clock in town keeping the local time will be on the
+town hall. All other matters will be regulated by standard
+time, and the hours of work will have been altered
+accordingly in factories, stores, and schools. Some
+opposition has been encountered, but this, as has been
+the case in every city where the change has been made,
+comes from people who evidently do not comprehend the
+effects of the change. One individual, for instance, writes
+to a newspaper that he will decline to pay pew rent in
+any church whose clock tower shows standard time; he
+refuses to have his hours of rest curtailed. How these will
+%% -----File: 074.png---Folio 75-------
+be affected by the change he does not explain. Every
+visitor to Detroit who has encountered the difficulties
+which the confusion of standards there gives rise to, will
+rejoice when the complete change is effected.''
+
+The longitude of Detroit being $83°$~W., it is seven degrees
+east of the 90th meridian, hence the local time used in the
+\index{Meridian!standard time}%
+city was twenty-eight minutes faster than Central time
+and thirty-two minutes slower than Eastern time. In
+Gainesville, Georgia, mean local sun time is used in the city,

+``The changes in time are almost as interesting and

+\index{Louisville, Ky.}%
+Time, Which Was 12:02~1-2~p.m.\
+Solar Time---Policies Expired at
+Noon and 13~Insurance Companies
+Wont Pay.} %[**TN: As in original text, no apostrophe]
+
+Whether the word ``noon,''
+which marks the beginning and
+expiration of all fire insurance
+policies, means noon by standard
+time, or noon by solar time, is a
+question which is soon to be
+fought out in the courts of Kentucky,
+\index{Kentucky}%
+in thirteen suits which
+have attracted the attention of
+fire insurance people all over the
+world. The suits are being
+brought by the Peaslee-Gaulbert
+Company and the Louisville Lead
+and Color Company of Louisville,
+and \$19,940.70 of insurance
+money depends on the result.
+
+Now, although the policies in
+these companies all state that
+they were in force from noon of
+April~1, 1901, to noon of April~1,
+1902, not one of them says what
+kind of time that period of the
+day is to be reckoned in. In
+Louisville the solar noon is $17\frac{1}{2}$~minutes
+earlier than the standard
+noon, so that a fire occurring
+in the neighborhood of noon on
+the day of a policy's expiration,
+may easily be open to attack.
+
+The records of the Louisville
+fire department show that the fire
+that destroyed the buildings of
+the two companies was discovered
+at 11:45~o'clock Louisville
+standard time in the forenoon of
+April~1, last. The fire began in
+the engine room of the main factory
+and spread to the two other
+buildings which were used mainly
+as warehouses. When the fire
+department recorded the time of
+the fire's discovery it figured, of
+course, by standard time. Solar
+time would make it just two and
+a half minutes after noon. If
+noon in the policies means noon
+by solar time, of course the thirteen
+companies are absolved from
+any responsibility for the loss.
+If it means noon by standard
+time, of course they must pay.
+
+When the insurance people got
+the claims of the companies they
+declined to pay, and when asked
+for an explanation declared that
+noon in the policies meant noon
+by solar time. The burned-out
+companies immediately began suit,
+and in their affidavits they say
+that not only is standard time
+the official time of the State of
+Kentucky and the city of Louisville,
+but it is also the time upon
+which all business engagements
+and all domestic and social engagements
+are reckoned. They
+state further that they are prepared
+to show that in~1890 the
+city of Louisville passed an ordinance
+making standard time the
+official time of the city, that all
+legislation is dated according to
+standard time, and that the governor
+of the state is inaugurated
+at noon according to the same
+measurement of time.
+
+Solar time, state the companies,
+can be found in use in Louisville
+by only a few banking institutions
+which got charters many
+years ago that compel them to
+use solar time to this day. Most
+banks, they say, operate on standard
+time, although they keep
+clocks going at solar time so as to
+do business on that basis if
+requested. Judging by standard
+time the plaintiffs allege their fire
+took place fifteen minutes before
+their policies expired.
+
+The suits will soon come to trial,
+and, of course, will be watched with
+great interest by insurance people.

+\Paragraph{Iowa Case.} An almost precisely similar case occurred
+\index{Iowa}%
+at Creston, Iowa, September~19, 1897. In this instance
+\index{Creston, Iowa}%
+the insurance policies expired ``at 12~o'clock at noon,''
+and the fire broke out at two and a half minutes past
+noon according to standard time, but at fifteen and one-half
+minutes before local mean solar noon. In each of
+these cases the question of whether standard time or local
+mean solar time was the accepted meaning of the term
+was submitted to a jury, and in the first instance the verdict
+was in favor of standard time, in the Iowa case the
+verdict was in favor of local time.
+
+\Paragraph{Early Decision in England.} In~1858 and thus prior to
+\index{England}%
+the formal adoption of standard time in Great Britain, it
+\index{Great Britain}%
+was held that the time appointed for the sitting of a court
+must be understood as the mean solar time of the place
+where the court is held and not Greenwich time, unless it be
+\index{Greenwich@Greenwich (Am.\ pron., gr\u{e}n$'$\;w\u{\i}ch; Eng.\ pron., gr\u{\i}n$'$\u{\i}j; or gr\u{e}n$'$\u{\i}j), England}%
+so expressed, and a new trial was granted to a defendant
+who had arrived at the local time appointed by the court
+but found the court had met by Greenwich time and the
+case had been decided against him.
+
+\Paragraph{Court Decision in Georgia.} In a similar manner a court
+\index{Georgia}%
+in the state of Georgia rendered the following opinion:
+
+\begin{SmallText}
+``The only standard of time in computation of a day, or hours of a
+day, recognized by the laws of Georgia is the meridian of the sun; and
+a legal day begins and ends at midnight, the mean time between meridian
+and meridian, or 12~o'clock \textit{post meridiem}. An arbitrary and artificial
+standard of time, fixed by persons in a certain line of business,
+cannot be substituted at will in a certain locality for the standard
+recognized by the law.''
+\end{SmallText}
+
+\Paragraph{Need for Legal Time Adoption on a Scientific Basis.} There
+is nothing in the foregoing decisions to determine whether
+mean local time, or the time as actually indicated by the
+sun at a particular day, is meant. Since the latter sometimes
+%% -----File: 080.png---Folio 81-------
+\index{United States Naval Observatory}%
+varies as much as fifteen minutes faster or slower
+than the average, opportunities for controversies are multiplied
+when no scientifically accurate standard time is
+adopted by law.
+
+Even though statutes are explicit in the definition of
+time, they are still subject to the official interpretation
+of the courts, as the following extracts show:
+
+\begin{SmallText}
+Thomas Mier took out a fire insurance policy on his saloon at
+11:30 standard time, the policy being dated noon of that day. At
+the very minute that he was getting the policy the saloon caught fire
+and was burned. Ohio law makes standard time legal time, and the
+company refused to pay the \$2,000 insurance on Mier's saloon. The
+case was fought through to the Supreme Court, which decided that
+``noon'' meant the time the sun passed the meridian at Akron, which is
+\index{Akron, O.}%
+\index{Meridian!standard time|(}%
+at 11:27 standard time. The court ordered the insurance company to
+pay.---\textit{Law Notes}, June, 1902.
+
+In the 28th Nebraska Reports a case is cited in which judgment by
+\index{Nebraska}%
+\index{Law Notes, quoted}%
+default was entered against a defendant in a magistrate's court who
+failed to make an appearance at the stipulated hour by standard time,
+but arrived within the limit by solar time. He contested the ruling
+of the court, and the supreme judiciary of the state upheld him in the
+contest, although there was a Nebraska statute making standard time
+the legal time. The court held that ``at noon'' must necessarily
+mean when the sun is over the meridian, and that no construction
+could reasonably interpret it as indicating 12~o'clock standard time.

+\CTime{Luxemburg}, $1$~h.\ fast, the legal and uniform time.
+\index{Luxemburg}%
+
+\CTime{Mexico}, $6$~h.\ $36$~m.\ $26.7$~s.\ slow. The National Astronomical Observatory
+\index{Mexico}%
+of Tacubaya regulates a clock twice a day which marks the local
+\index{Tacubaya@Tacubaya (\phonTacubaya), Mexico}%
+mean time of the City of Mexico, and a signal is raised twice a week
+at noon upon the roof of the national palace, such signal being
+used to regulate the city's public clocks. This signal, the clock at
+the central telegraph office, and the public clock on the cathedral,
+serve as a basis for the time used commonly by the people. The
+general telegraph office transmits this time daily to all of its branch
+offices. Not every city in the country uses this time, however,
+since a local time, very imperfectly determined, is more commonly
+observed. The following railroad companies use standard City of
+Mexico time corrected daily by telegraph: Central, Hidalgo, Xico
+\index{Xico, Mexico}%
+\index{Hidalgo, Mexico}%
+and San Rafael, National and Mexican. The Central and National
+\index{San Rafael@San Rafael (rä\;fä\;\u{e}l$'$), Mexico}%
+railroads correct their clocks to City of Mexico time daily by means
+of the noon signal sent out from the Naval Observatory at Washington
+\index{Washington, D. C.}%
+(see page~\pageref{page:71}) and by a similar signal from the observatory
+at St.~Louis, Missouri. The Nacozari, and the Cananea, Yaqui River
+\index{St.~Louis, Mo.}%
+\index{Yaqui River, Mexico}%
+and Pacific railroads use Mountain time, $7$~h.\ slow, and the Sonora
+railroad uses the local time of Guaymas, $7$~h.\ $24$~m.\ slow.
+\index{Guaymas, Mexico}%
+
+\CTime{Nicaragua}, $5$~h.\ $45$~m.\ $10$~s.\ slow. Managua time is issued to all public

+
+\CTime{Norway}, $1$~h.\ fast. Central European time is used everywhere throughout
+\index{Central time, in Europe}%
+\index{Norway}%
+the country. Telegraphic time signals are sent out once a
+week to the telegraph stations throughout the country from the
+observatory of the Christiania University.
+
+\CTime{Panama.} Both the local mean time of Colon, $5$~h.\ $19$~m.\ $39$~s.\ slow, and
+\index{Panama}%
+\index{Colon@Colon (k\={o}\;l\={o}n$'$), Panama}%
+eastern standard time of the United States, $5$~h.\ slow, are used. The
+latter time is cabled daily by the Central and South American Cable
+%% -----File: 085.png---Folio 86-------
+Company from the Naval Observatory at Washington, and will
+\index{Washington, D. C.}%
+probably soon be adopted as standard.
+
+\CTime{Peru}, $5$~h.\ $9$~m.\ $3$~s.\ slow. There is no official time. The railroad from
+\index{Peru}%
+Callao to Oroya takes its time by telegraph from the noon signal at
+\index{Callao@Callao (käl\;lä$'$\={o}), Peru}%
+\index{Oroya, Peru}%
+the naval school at Callao, which may be said to be the standard
+time for Callao, Lima, and the whole of central Peru. The railroad
+\index{Lima@Lima (l\={e}$'$ma), Peru}%
+from Mollendo to Lake Titicaca, in southern Peru, takes its time
+\index{Mollendo, Peru}%
+\index{Titicaca, Lake, Peru}%
+from ships in the Bay of Mollendo.
+
+\CTime{Portugal}, $0$~h.\ $36$~m.\ $44.7$~s.\ slow. Standard time is in use throughout
+\index{Portugal}%
+Portugal and is based upon the meridian of Lisbon. It is established
+\index{Lisbon, Portugal}%
+by the Royal Observatory in the Royal Park at Lisbon,
+and from there sent by telegraph to every railway station throughout
+Portugal having telegraphic communication. Clocks on railway
+station platforms are five minutes behind and clocks outside of
+stations are true.
+
+\CTime{Russia}, $2$~h.\ $1$~m.\ $18.6$~s.\ fast. All telegraph stations use the time of the
+\index{Russia}%
+Royal Observatory at Pulkowa, near St.~Petersburg. At railroad
+\index{Pulkowa, Russia}%
+\index{St.~Petersburg, Russia}%
+stations both local and Pulkowa time are given, from which it is
+to be inferred that for all local purposes local time is used.
+
+\CTime{Salvador}, $5$~h.\ $56$~m.\ $32$~s.\ slow. The government has established a national
+observatory at San Salvador which issues time on Wednesdays and
+\index{Salvador@Salvador (säl\;vä\;d\={o}r)}%
+\index{San Salvador, Salvador}%
+Saturdays, at noon, to all public offices, telegraph offices, railways,
+etc., throughout the Republic.
+
+\CTime{Santo Domingo}, $4$~h.\ $39$~m.\ $32$~s.\ slow. Local mean time is used, but there
+\index{Santo Domingo}%
+is no central observatory and no means of correcting the time. The
+time differs from that of the naval vessels in these waters by about
+30 minutes.
+
+\CTime{Servia}, $1$~h.\ fast. Central European time is used by the railroad, telegraph
+\index{Central time, in Europe}%
+\index{Servia}%
+companies, and people generally. Clocks are regulated by
+telegraph from Budapest every day at noon.
+\index{Budapest@Budapest (boo$'$\;da\;pest), Hungary}%

+offices in Spain and the Balearic Islands, railroad and
+\index{Balearic Is.}%
+telegraph offices. The hours are numbered from $0$ to $24$, beginning
+with midnight. In some portions local time is still used for private
+matters.
+
+\CTime{Sweden}, $1$~h.\ fast. Central European time is the standard in general
+\index{Sweden}%
+use. It is sent out every week by telegraph from the Stockholm
+\index{Stockholm, Sweden}%
+Observatory.
+
+\CTime{Switzerland}, $1$~h.\ fast. Central European time is the only legal time.
+\index{Central time, in Europe}%
+\index{Switzerland}%
+It is sent out daily by telegraph from the Cantonal Observatory at
+Neuchatel.%
+\index{Neuchatel, Switzerland}%
+%% -----File: 086.png---Folio 87-------
+
+\CTime{Turkey.} Two kinds of time are used, Turkish and Eastern European
+\index{Turkey}%
+\index{Eastern time, in Europe}%
+time, the former for the natives and the latter for Europeans. The
+railroads generally use both, the latter for the actual running of
+trains and Turkish time-tables for the benefit of the natives.
+Standard Turkish time is used generally by the people, sunset being
+the base, and twelve hours being added for a theoretical sunrise.
+The official clocks are set daily so as to read 12 o'clock at the theoretical
+sunrise, from tables showing the times of sunset, but the
+tower clocks are set only two or three times a week. The government
+telegraph lines use Turkish time throughout the empire, and
+St.~Sophia time, $1$~h.\ $56$~m.\ $53$~s.\ fast, for telegrams sent out of the
+country.
+
+\CTime{United States.} Standard time based upon the meridian of Greenwich,
+\index{United States}%
+varying by whole hours from Greenwich time, is almost universally
+used, and is sent out daily by telegraph to most of the country, and
+to Havana and Panama from the Naval Observatory at Washington,
+\index{Havana, Cuba}%
+\index{Panama}%
+and to the Pacific coast from the observatory at Mare Island Navy
+\index{Mare Island Naval Observatory}%
+Yard, California. For further discussions of standard time belts in
+the United States, see pp.~\pageref{page:65}--\pageref{page:68} and the U. S. standard time belt
+\hyperref[fig:i065]{map}. Insular possessions have time as follows:
+
+\CSubTime{Porto Rico}, $4$~h.\ slow, Atlantic standard time.
+\index{Porto Rico}%
+
+\CSubTime{Alaska}, $9$~h.\ slow, Alaska standard time.
+\index{Alaska}%
+
+\CSubTime{Hawaiian Islands}, $10$~h.\ $30$~m.\ slow, Hawaiian standard time.
+\index{Hawaiian (Sandwich) Islands}%
+
+\CSubTime{Guam}, $9$~h.\ $30$~m.\ fast, Guam standard time.

+\CSubTime{Philippine Islands}, $8$~h.\ fast, Philippine standard time.
+\index{Philippine Is.}%
+
+\CSubTime{Tutuila, Samoa}, $11$~h.\ $30$~m.\ slow, Samoan standard time.
+\index{Tutuila@Tutuila (too\;tw\={e}$'$lä), Samoa}%
+
+\CTime{Uruguay}, $3$~h.\ $44$~m.\ $48.9$~s.\ slow. The time in common use is the mean
+\index{Uruguay}%
+time of the meridian of the dome of the Metropolitan Church of
+Montevideo. The correct time is indicated by a striking clock in
+\index{Montevideo, Uruguay}%
+the tower of that church. An astronomical geodetic observatory,
+with meridian telescope and chronometers, has now been established
+and will in the future furnish the time. It is proposed to
+install a time ball for the benefit of navigators at the port of Montevideo.
+An electric time service will be extended throughout the
+country, using at first the meridian of the church and afterwards
+\index{Meridian!standard time|)}%
+that of the national observatory, when constructed.
+
+\CTime{Venezuela}, $4$~h.\ $27$~m.\ $43.6$~s. The time is computed daily at the Caracas
+\index{Caracas@Caracas (kä\;rä$'$käs), Venezuela}%
+\index{Venezuela}%
+Observatory from observations of the sun and is occasionally telegraphed
+to other parts of Venezuela. The cathedral clock at Caracas
+is corrected by means of these observations. Railway time is at
+least five minutes later than that indicated by the cathedral clock,
+which is accepted as standard by the people. Some people take
+time from the observatory flag, which always falls at noon.\nblabel{page:87}

+\Paragraph{Magellan's Fleet.} When the sole surviving ship of
+\index{Magellan's fleet}%
+Magellan's fleet returned to Spain in~1522 after having
+\index{Spain}%
+circumnavigated the globe, it is said that the crew were
+greatly astonished that their calendar and that of the
+Spaniards did not correspond. They landed, according to
+their own reckoning, on September~6, but were told it was
+September~7\@. At first they thought they had made a mistake,
+and some time elapsed before they realized that they
+had lost a day by going around the world with the sun.
+Had they traveled toward the east, they would have
+gained a day, and would have recorded the same date as
+September~8.

+
+The explanation of this phenomenon is simple. In
+traveling westward, in the same way with the sun, one's
+days are lengthened as compared with the day at any
+fixed place. When one has traveled~$15°$ westward, at whatever
+rate of speed, he finds his watch is one hour behind
+the time at his starting point, if he changes it according
+to the sun. He has thus lost an hour as compared with
+%% -----File: 092.png---Folio 93-------
+the time at his starting point. After he has traveled~$15°$
+farther, he will set his watch back two hours and thus
+record a loss of two hours. And so it continues throughout
+the twenty-four belts of~$15°$ each, losing one hour in
+each belt; by the time he arrives at his starting point
+again, he has set his hour hand back twenty-four hours
+and has lost a day.

+\Paragraph{Westward Travel---Days are Lengthened.} To make this
+\index{London, England|(}%
+clearer, let us suppose a traveler starts from London Monday
+noon, January~1st, traveling westward~$15°$ each day.
+On Tuesday, when he finds he is~$15°$ west of London, he
+sets his watch back an hour. It is then noon by the sun
+where he is.
+\includegraphicsright{i094}{Fig. 31} %[**TN: inserted mid-paragraph - may need fixing if pagination changed]
+He says, ``I left Monday noon, it is now
+%% -----File: 093.png---Folio 94-------
+Tuesday noon; therefore I have been out one day.'' The
+tower clock at London and his chronometer set with it,
+however, indicate a different view. They say it is Tuesday,
+1~o'clock, \PM, and he has been out a day and an hour.
+The next day the process is repeated. The traveler having
+covered another space of $15°$ westward, sets his watch
+back a second hour and says, ``It is Wednesday noon and
+I have been out just two days.'' The London clock, however,
+says Wednesday,~2 o'clock, \PM---two days and
+two hours since he left. The third day this occurs again,
+the traveler losing a third hour; and what to him seems
+three days, Monday noon to Thursday noon, is in reality
+by London time three days and three hours.
+Each of his days is really a little more than twenty-four hours long,
+for he is going with the sun. By the time he arrives at
+London again he finds what to him was twenty-four days
+is, in reality, twenty-five days, for he has set his watch
+back an hour each day for twenty-four days, or an entire
+day. To have his calendar correct, he must omit a day,
+that is, move the date ahead one day to make up the date
+lost from his reckoning. It is obvious that this will be
+true whatever the rate of travel, and the day can be omitted
+from his calendar anywhere in the journey and the error
+corrected.
+
+\Paragraph{Eastward Travel---Days are Shortened.} Had our traveler
+gone eastward, when he had covered $15°$ of longitude
+he would set his watch ahead one hour and then say,
+``It is now Tuesday noon. I have been out one day.''
+The London clock would indicate~11 o'clock, \AM, of
+Tuesday, and thus say his day had but twenty-three
+hours in it, the traveler having moved the hour hand
+ahead one space. He has gained one hour. The second
+day he would gain another hour, and by the time he arrived
+%% -----File: 094.png---Folio 95-------
+at London again, he would
+have set his hour hand ahead
+twenty-four hours or one
+full day. To correct his calendar,
+somewhere on his voyage
+he would have to repeat
+a day.
+
+\Paragraph{The International Date
+Line.} It is obvious from
+\index{International date line@International date line\phantomsection\label{idx:idl}}%
+the foregoing explanation
+that somewhere and sometime
+in circumnavigation, a
+day must be omitted in traveling
+westward and a day
+repeated in traveling eastward.
+Where and when the
+change is made is a mere
+matter of convenience. The
+theoretical location of the
+date line commonly used is
+the~180th meridian. This
+\index{Meridian|(}%
+line where a traveler's calendar
+needs changing varies
+as do the boundaries of the
+standard time belts and for
+the same reason. While
+the change could be made
+at any particular point on
+a parallel, it would make a
+serious inconvenience were
+the change made in some
+places. Imagine, for example,
+the~90th meridian,
+%% -----File: 095.png---Folio 96-------
+west of Greenwich, to be the line used. When it was
+\index{Greenwich@Greenwich (Am.\ pron., gr\u{e}n$'$\;w\u{\i}ch; Eng.\ pron., gr\u{\i}n$'$\u{\i}j; or gr\u{e}n$'$\u{\i}j), England}%

+\index{Chicago, Ill.}%
+\index{New York}%
+it would be Monday in St.~Paul, Kansas City, and western
+\index{St.~Paul, Minn.}%
+\index{Kansas City, Mo.}%
+points. A traveler leaving Minneapolis on Sunday night
+\index{Minneapolis, Minn.}%
+would arrive in Chicago on Sunday morning and thus
+have two Sundays on successive days. Our national holidays
+and elections would then occur on different days
+in different parts of the country. To reduce to the
+minimum such inconveniences as necessarily attend changing
+one's calendar, the change is made where there is a
+relatively small amount of travel, away out in the Pacific
+\index{Pacific Ocean}%
+Ocean. Going westward across this line one must set his
+calendar ahead a day; going eastward, back a day.

+
+\smallskip\textsc{Dear Sir:}---The map of your Mathematical Geography is
+correct in placing Samoa to the east of the international date line.
+The older geographies were also right in placing these islands west
+of the international date line, because they used to keep the same date
+as Australia and New Zealand, which are west of the international
+date line.
+
+The reason for this mistake is that when the London Missionary
+Society sent its missionaries to Samoa they were not acquainted with
+\index{London, England|)}%
+%% -----File: 096.png---Folio 97-------
+the trick of changing the date at the 180th~meridian, and so carried
+into Samoa, which was east of the date line, the date they brought
+\index{Samoa}%
+with them, which was, of course, one day ahead.
+

+Saturday at Denver, it is~1:30 o'clock, \AM, Sunday, at
+\index{Denver, Col.}%
+New York, It is thus evident that parts of two days
+\index{New York}%
+exist at the same time on the earth. Were one to travel
+around the earth with the sun and as rapidly it would be
+perpetually noon. When he has gone around once, one
+day has passed. Where did that day begin? Or, suppose
+we wished to be the first on earth to hail the new
+year, where could we go to do so? The midnight line,
+just opposite the sun, is constantly bringing a new day
+somewhere. Midnight ushers in the new year at Chicago.
+\index{Chicago, Ill.}%
+Previous to this it was begun at New York. Still east
+of this, New Year's Day began some time before. If we
+keep going around eastward we must surely come to
+some place where New Year's Day was first counted, or we
+shall get entirely around to New York and find that the
+New Year's Day began the day before, and this midnight
+would commence it again. As previously stated, the date
+line commonly accepted nearly coincides with the~180th
+meridian. Here it is that New Year's Day first dawns
+and each new day begins.
+
+\Paragraph{The Total Duration of a Day.} While a day at any
+\index{Day@Day \indexglossref{Day}\phantomsection\label{idx:d}, astronomical!total duration of a}%
+particular place is twenty-four hours long, each day lasts
+on earth at least forty-eight hours. Any given day, say
+Christmas, is first counted as that day just west of the
+date line. An hour later Christmas begins~$15°$ west of
+that line, two hours later it begins~$30°$ west of it, and so on
+around the globe. The people just west of the date line
+who first hailed Christmas have enjoyed twelve hours of
+it when it begins in England, eighteen hours of it when
+\index{England}%
+it begins in central United States, and twenty-four hours
+\index{United States}%
+of it, or the whole day, when it begins in western Alaska,

+twenty-four hours on the globe, but having just begun in
+western Alaska, it will tarry twenty-four hours longer
+among mankind, making forty-eight hours that the day
+blesses the earth.
+
+If the date line followed the meridian~$180°$ without
+any variation, the total duration of a day would be exactly
+forty-eight hours as just explained. But that line is quite
+irregular, as previously described and as shown on the
+map. Because of this irregularity of the date line the
+same day lasts somewhere on earth over \emph{forty-nine hours}.
+Suppose we start at Cape Deshnef, Siberia, longitude~$169°$
+\index{Deshnef, Cape}%
+\index{Cape Deshnef, Siberia}%
+\index{Siberia}%
+West, a moment after midnight of the~3d of July. The~4th
+of July has begun, and, as midnight sweeps around
+westward, successive places see the beginning of this day.
+When it is the~4th in London it has been the~4th at
+\index{London, England}%
+Cape Deshnef twelve hours and forty-four minutes. When
+the glorious day arrives at New York, it has been seventeen
+\index{New York}%
+hours and forty-four minutes since it began at Cape
+Deshnef. When it reaches our most western point on this
+continent, Attu Island,~$173°$~E., it has been twenty-five
+\index{Attu Island}%
+hours and twelve minutes since it began at Cape Deshnef.
+Since it will last twenty-four hours at Attu Island, forty-nine

+has not been adopted by all nations as a hard

+the change is usually made so as to have neither
+two Sundays in one week nor a week without a Sunday.
+Just as the traveler in the United States going from a
+\index{United States|(}%
+place having one time standard to a place having a different
+one would find it necessary to change his watch
+but could make the change at any time, so one passing
+from a place having one day to one reckoning another,
+could suit his convenience as to the precise spot where
+he make the change. This statement needs only the
+%% -----File: 101.png---Folio 102-------
+modification that as all events on a ship must be regulated
+by a common timepiece, changed according to
+longitude, so the community on board in order to adjust
+to a common calendar must accept the change when made
+by the captain.
+
+\Paragraph{Origin and Change of Date Line.} The origin of this
+line is of considerable interest. The day adopted in any
+region depended upon the direction from which the
+people came who settled the country. For example,
+people who went to Australia, Hongkong, and other English
+\index{Australia}%
+\index{Hongkong}%
+possessions in the Orient traveled around Africa or
+\index{Africa}%
+across the Mediterranean. They thus set their watches
+\index{Mediterranean}%
+ahead an hour for every~$15°$. ``For two centuries after
+the Spanish settlement the trade of Manila with the
+western world was carried on \emph{via} Acapulco and Mexico''
+\index{Acapulco, Mexico}%
+\index{Mexico}%
+(Ency.\ Brit.). Thus the time which obtained in the
+\index{Encyclopaedia Britannica}%
+Philippines was found by setting watches backwards an
+\index{Philippine Is.}%
+hour for every $15°$, and so it came about that the calendar
+of the Philippines was a day earlier than that of Australia,
+Hongkong, etc. The date line at that time was very indefinite
+and irregular. In~1845 by a decree of the Bishop of
+Manila, who was also Governor-General, Tuesday, December~31,
+was stricken from the calendar; the day after
+Monday, December~30, was Wednesday, January~1, 1846.
+This cutting the year to~364 days and the week to~6 days
+gave the Philippines the same day as other Asiatic places,
+and shifted the date line to the east of that archipelago.
+Had this change never been made, all of the possessions
+of the United States would have the same day.
+
+For some time after the acquisition of Alaska the people
+\index{Alaska}%
+living there, formerly citizens of Russia, used the day later
+\index{Russia}%
+than ours, and also used the Russian or Julian calendar,
+twelve days later than ours. As people moved there from
+%% -----File: 102.png---Folio 103-------
+the United States, our system gradually was extended, but
+\index{United States|)}%
+for a time both systems were in vogue. This made affairs
+confusing, some keeping Sunday when others reckoned the
+same day as Saturday and counted it as twelve days later
+in the calendar, New Year's Day, Christmas, etc., coming
+at different times. Soon, however, the American system
+prevailed to the entire exclusion of the Russian, the
+inhabitants repeating a day, and thus having eight days
+in one week. While the Russians in their churches in
+Alaska are celebrating the Holy Mass on our Sunday,
+\index{Alaska}%
+their brethren in Siberia, not far away, and in other parts
+\index{Siberia}%

+the drops will strike the top of one's head if he is standing
+still in the rain; but if one moves, the direction of the
+drops will seem to have changed, striking one in the face
+more and more as the speed is increased (Fig.~\figureref{i104}{33}). Now
+light rays from the sun, a star, or other heavenly body,
+strike the earth somewhat slantingly, because the earth is
+moving around the sun at the rate of over a thousand
+miles per minute. Because of this fact the astronomer
+must tip his telescope slightly to the east of a star in order
+to see it when the earth is in one side of its orbit, and to
+the west of it when in the opposite side of the orbit. The
+necessity of this tipping of the telescope will be apparent
+if we imagine the rays passing through the telescope are
+like raindrops falling through a tube. If the tube is carried
+forward swiftly enough the drops will strike the sides
+of the tube, and in order that they may pass directly
+through it, the tube must be tilted forward somewhat,

+the amount varying with (\emph{a})~the rate of its onward motion,
+and (\emph{b})~the rate at which the raindrops are falling.
+
+Since the telescope must at one time be tilted one way
+to see a star and at another season tilted an equal amount
+in the opposite direction, each star thus seems to move
+about in a tiny orbit, varying from a circle to a straight
+line, depending upon the position of the star, but in every
+case the major axis is~$41''$, or twice the greatest angle at
+which the telescope must be tilted forward.

+is the pitch. Imagine a boy throwing chips\footnote{This illustration is adapted from Todd's New Astronomy, p.~432.} into a river
+\index{Todd, David}%
+at a uniform rate while walking down stream toward a
+bridge and then while walking upstream away from the
+bridge. The chips will be closer together as they pass
+under the bridge when the boy is walking toward it than
+when he is walking away from it. In a similar way the
+sound waves from the bell of the rapidly approaching
+locomotive accumulate upon the ear of the listener, and
+the pitch is higher than it would be if the train were stationary,
+and after the train passes the sound waves will be
+farther apart, as observed by the same person, who will

+\Subparagraph{Color varies with Rate of Vibration.} Now in a precisely

+\index{Spectroscope}%
+instrument which spreads out the line of light
+from a celestial body into a band and breaks it up into
+its several colors. If a ringing bell rapidly approaches us,
+or if we approach it, the tone of the bell sounds higher
+than if it recedes from us or if we recede from it. If we
+rapidly approach a star, or a star approaches us, its color
+shifts toward the violet end of the spectroscope; and if we
+rapidly recede from it, or it recedes from us, its color shifts
+toward the red end. Now year after year the thousands
+of stars in the vicinity of the plane of the earth's pathway
+show in the spectroscope this change toward violet at one
+season and toward red at the opposite season. The farther
+from the plane of the earth's orbit a star is located,
+the less is this annual change in color, since the earth
+neither approaches nor recedes from stars toward the
+poles. Either the stars near the plane of the earth's
+orbit move rapidly toward the earth at one season, gradually
+stop, and six months later as rapidly recede, and stars
+away from this plane approach and recede at rates diminishing
+exactly in proportion to their distance from this
+plane, \emph{or the earth itself swiftly moves about the sun}.

+%% -----File: 107.png---Folio 108-------
+facts and reasoning applies to the rotation of the earth.
+In the evening a star in the east shows a color approaching
+the violet side of the spectroscope, and this gradually shifts
+toward the red during the night as the star is seen higher
+in the sky, then nearly overhead, then in the west. Now
+either the star swiftly approaches the earth early in the
+evening, then gradually pauses, and at midnight begins to
+go away from the earth faster and faster as it approaches
+the western horizon, or the earth rotates on its axis,
+toward a star seen in the east, neither toward nor from it
+when nearly overhead, and away from it when seen near
+the west. Since the same star rises at different hours
+throughout the year it would have to fly back and forth
+toward and from the earth, two trips every day, varying
+its periods according to the time of its rising and setting.
+Besides this, when a star is rising at Calcutta it shows the
+violet tendency to observers there (Calcutta is rotating
+toward the star when the star is rising), and at the same
+moment the same star is setting at New Orleans and thus
+shows a shift toward the red to observers there. Now the
+distant star cannot possibly be actually rapidly approaching
+Calcutta and at the same time be as rapidly receding
+\index{Calcutta, India}%
+from New Orleans. The spectroscope, that wonderful
+\index{New Orleans, La.}%
+instrument which has multiplied astronomical knowledge
+during the last half century, demonstrates, with mathematical
+certainty, the rotation of the earth, and multiplies
+millionfold the certainty of the earth's revolution.
+
+\Subparagraph{Actual Motions of Stars.}\nblabel{page:108} Before leaving this topic we
+should notice that other changes in the colors of stars show
+that some are actually approaching the earth at a uniform
+rate, and some are receding from it. Careful observations
+at long intervals show other changes in the positions
+of stars. The latter motion of a star is called its

+\Paragraph{Winter Constellations Invisible in Summer.} You have
+\index{Winter constellations}%
+doubtless observed that some constellations which are
+visible on a winter's night cannot be seen on a summer's
+night. In January, the beautiful constellation Orion may
+\index{Orion@Orion (o\;r\={\i}$'$on)}%
+be seen early in the evening and the whole night through;
+in July, not at all. That this is due to the revolution of
+the earth around the sun may readily be made apparent.
+In the daytime we cannot easily see the stars around the
+sun, because of its great light and the peculiar properties
+of the atmosphere; six months from now the earth will
+have moved halfway around the sun, and we shall be
+between the sun and the stars he now hides from view,
+and at night the stars now invisible will be visible.

+
+If you have made a record of the observations suggested
+in Chapter~\hyperref[chap:I]{I}, you will now find that Exhibit~I (Fig.~\figureref{i110}{35}),
+shows that the Big Dipper and other star groups have
+\index{Big Dipper}%
+slightly changed their relative positions for the same time
+of night, making a little more than one complete rotation
+during each twenty-four hours. In other words, the stars
+\index{Proofs, form of earth!revolution of earth|)}%
+%% -----File: 111.png---Folio 112-------
+have been gaining a little on the sun in the apparent daily
+swing of the celestial sphere around the earth.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i111}{Fig.~36}
+
+The reasons for this may be understood from a careful
+study of Figure~\figureref{i111}{36}. The outer circle, which should be
+indefinitely great, represents the celestial sphere; the inner
+ellipse, the path of the earth around the sun. Now the sun
+does not seem to be, as it really is, relatively near the
+earth, but is projected into the celestial sphere among the
+%% -----File: 112.png---Folio 113-------
+stars. When the earth is at point~$A$ the sun is seen among
+\index{Sun!apparent motions of}%
+the stars at~$a$; when the earth has moved to~$B$ the sun
+seems to have moved to~$b$, and so on throughout the annual
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+orbit. \emph{The sun, therefore, seems to creep around the celestial
+sphere among the stars at the same rate and in the same
+direction as the earth moves in its orbit.} If you walk around
+a room with someone standing in the center, you will see
+that his image may be projected upon the wall opposite,
+and as you walk around, his image on the wall will move
+around in the same direction. Thus the sun seems to move
+in the celestial sphere in the same direction and at the same
+rate as the earth moves around the sun.
+
+\Paragraph{Two Apparent Motions of the Sun: Daily Westward,
+Annual Eastward.} The sun, then, has two apparent
+motions,\allowbreak---a daily swing around the earth with the celestial
+sphere, and this annual motion in the celestial sphere among
+the stars. The first motion is in a direction opposite to that
+of the earth's rotation and is from east to west, the second
+is in the same direction as the earth's revolution and is
+from west to east. If this is not readily seen from the
+foregoing statements and the diagram, think again of the
+rotation of the earth making an apparent rotation of
+the celestial sphere in the opposite direction, the reasons
+why the sun and moon seem to rise in the east and set in
+the west; then think of the motion of the earth around the
+sun by which the sun is projected among certain stars
+and then among other stars, seeming to creep among
+them from west to east.
+
+After seeing this clearly, think of yourself as facing the
+rising sun and a star which is also rising. Now imagine
+the earth to have rotated once, a day to have elapsed,
+and the earth to have gone a day's journey in its orbit in
+the direction corresponding to upward. The sun would
+%% -----File: 113.png---Folio 114-------
+not then be on the horizon, but, the earth having moved
+``upward,'' it would be somewhat below the horizon.
+The same star, however, would be on the horizon, for the
+earth does not change its position in relation to the stars.
+After another rotation the earth would be, relative to the
+stars viewed in that direction, higher up in its orbit and
+the sun farther below the horizon when the star was just
+rising. In three months when the star rose the sun would
+be nearly beneath one's feet, or it would be midnight; in
+six months we should be on the other side of the sun,
+and it would be setting when the star was rising; in nine
+months the earth would have covered the ``downward''
+quadrant of its journey around the sun, and the star
+would rise at noon; twelve months later the sun and
+star would rise together again. If the sun and a star
+set together one evening, on the next evening the star
+would set a little before the sun, the next night earlier
+still.
+
+Since the sun passes around its orbit, $360°$, in a year,
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+$365$ days, it passes over a space of nearly one degree each
+day. The diameter of the sun as seen from the earth
+covers about half a degree of the celestial sphere. During
+one rotation of the earth, then, the sun creeps eastward
+among the stars about twice its own width. A star rising
+with the sun will gain on the sun nearly $\frac{1}{360}$~of a day
+during each rotation, or a little less than four minutes.
+The sun sets nearly four minutes later than the star with
+which it set the day before.

+\index{Day@Day \indexglossref{Day}\phantomsection\label{idx:d}, astronomical!solar}%
+star-rise, or an exact rotation of the earth, is called a
+\emph{sidereal day}. Its exact length is $23$~h.\ $56$~m.\ $4.09$~s. The
+time between two successive passages of the sun over a
+given meridian, or from noon by the sun until the next
+%% -----File: 114.png---Folio 115-------

+ {A solar day is sometimes defined as the interval from sunrise to
+ sunrise again. This is true only at the equator. The length of the
+ solar day corresponding to February~12, May~15, July~27, or November~3,
+ is almost exactly twenty-four hours. The time intervening between
+ sunrise and sunrise again varies greatly with the latitude and season.
+ On the dates named a solar day at the pole is twenty-four hours long,
+ as it is everywhere else on earth. The time from sunrise to sunrise
+ again, however, is almost six months at either pole.}
+Its length varies
+somewhat, for reasons to be explained later, but averages
+twenty-four hours. When we say ``day,'' if it is not
+otherwise qualified, we usually mean an average solar
+day divided into twenty-four hours, from midnight to
+midnight. The term ``hour,'' too, when not otherwise
+qualified, refers to one twenty-fourth of a mean solar
+day.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i114}{Fig.~37}
+
+\Paragraph{Causes of Apparent Motions of the Sun.} The apparent
+motions of the sun are due to the real motions of the
+earth. If the earth moved slowly around the sun, the
+sun would appear to move slowly among the stars. Just
+as we know the direction and rate of the earth's rotation
+by observing the direction and rate of the apparent rotation
+%% -----File: 115.png---Folio 116-------
+of the celestial sphere, we know the direction and
+rate of the earth's revolution by observing the direction
+and rate of the sun's apparent annual motion.

+\index{Ecliptic@Ecliptic \indexglossref{Ecliptic}}%

+\index{Orbit, of earth|(}%
+orbit is called the \emph{ecliptic}.\footnote
+ {So called because eclipses can occur only when the moon crosses
+ the plane of the ecliptic.}
+\index{Eclipse}%
+The line traced by the center
+of the earth in its revolution about the sun is its orbit.
+Since the sun's apparent annual revolution around the sky
+is due to the earth's actual motion about the sun, the path
+of the sun, the ecliptic, must lie in the same plane with the
+%% -----File: 116.png---Folio 117-------
+earth's orbit. The earth's equator and parallels, if extended,
+would coincide with the celestial equator and
+parallels; similarly, the earth's orbit, if expanded in the
+same plane, would coincide with the ecliptic. We often
+use interchangeably the expressions ``plane of the earth's
+orbit'' and ``plane of the ecliptic.''
+
+\Paragraph{The Zodiac.}\nblabel{page:117} The orbits of the different planets and of
+\index{Zodiac}%
+the moon are inclined somewhat to the plane of the ecliptic,
+but, excepting some of the minor planets, not more
+than eight degrees. The moon and principal planets,
+therefore, are never more than eight degrees from the
+pathway of the sun. This belt sixteen degrees wide, with
+the ecliptic as the center, is called the zodiac (more fully
+discussed in the Appendix, p.~\pageref{page:293}). Since the sun appears
+to pass around the center of the zodiac once each year,
+the ancients, who observed these facts, divided it into
+twelve parts, one for each month, naming each part from
+some constellation in it. It is probably more nearly correct
+historically, to say that these twelve constellations
+got their names originally from the position of the sun in
+the zodiac. Libra, the Balance, probably got its name
+\index{Libra@Libra (li$'$bra)}%
+from the fact that in ancient days the sun was among the
+group of stars thus named about September~23, when the
+days and nights are equal, thus balancing. In some such
+way these parts came to be called the ``twelve signs of
+the zodiac,'' one for each month.
+
+The facts in this chapter concerning the apparent
+annual motion of the sun were well known to the ancients,
+possibly even more generally than they are to-day. The
+reason for this is because there were few calendars and
+almanacs in the earlier days of mankind, and people had
+to reckon their days by noting the position of the sun.
+Thus, instead of saying that the date of his famous

+twice each year, and at one season gets $23\frac{1}{2}°$~north of it,

+\Paragraph{Earth's Orbit.} We have
+learned that the earth's orbit
+is an ellipse, and the sun is
+at a focus of it. While the
+eccentricity is not great, and
+when reduced in scale the
+orbit does not differ materially
+from a circle, the difference
+is sufficient to make an appreciable difference in the
+rate of the earth's motion in different parts of its orbit.
+Figure~\figureref{i284}{113}, p.~\pageref{fig:i284}, represents the orbit of the earth, greatly
+exaggerating the ellipticity. The point in the orbit nearest
+the sun is called perihelion (from \emph{peri}, around or near, and
+\index{Perihelion}%
+\emph{helios}, the sun). This point is about $91\frac{1}{2}$~million miles from
+the sun, and the earth reaches it about December~31st.
+The point in the earth's orbit farthest from the sun is
+called aphelion (from \emph{a}, away from, and \emph{helios}, sun). Its
+\index{Aphelion@Aphelion \indexglossref{Aphelion}}%
+distance is about $94\frac{1}{2}$~million miles, and the earth reaches
+it about July~1st.
+
+\Paragraph{Varying Speed of the Earth.} According to the law of
+gravitation, the earth moves faster in its orbit when near
+perihelion, and slower when near aphelion. In December
+and January the earth moves fastest in its orbit, and
+during that period the sun moves fastest in the ecliptic
+\index{Ecliptic@Ecliptic \indexglossref{Ecliptic}}%
+and falls farther behind the stars in their rotation in the
+\index{Orbit, of earth|)}%
+%% -----File: 119.png---Folio 120-------
+celestial sphere. Solar days are thus longer then than
+they are in midsummer when the earth moves more slowly
+in its orbit and more nearly keeps up with the stars.
+
+Imagine the sun and a star are rising together January~1st.
+After one exact rotation of the earth, a sidereal day,
+the star will be rising again, but since the earth has moved
+rapidly in its course around the sun, the sun is somewhat
+farther behind the star than it would be in summer when
+the earth moved more slowly around the sun. At star-rise
+January~3d, the sun is behind still farther, and in
+the course of a few weeks the sun will be several minutes
+behind the point where it would be if the earth's orbital
+motion were uniform. The sun is then said to be slow of
+the average sun. In July the sun creeps back less rapidly
+in the ecliptic, and thus a solar day is more nearly the
+same length as a sidereal day, and hence shorter than the
+average.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i119}{Fig.~40}
+
+Another factor modifies the foregoing statements. The
+daily courses of the stars swinging around with the celestial
+sphere are parallel and are at right angles to the axis.
+The sun in its annual
+path creeps diagonally
+across their courses.
+When farthest from the
+celestial equator, in June
+and in December, the
+sun's movement in the
+ecliptic is nearly parallel
+to the courses of the
+stars (Fig.~\figureref{i119}{40}); as it
+gets nearer the celestial equator, in March and in September,
+the course is more oblique. Hence in the latter
+part of June and of December, the sun, creeping back in
+%% -----File: 120.png---Folio 121-------
+the ecliptic, falls farther behind the stars and becomes
+slower than the average. In the latter part of March and
+of September the sun creeps in a more diagonal course and
+hence does not fall so far behind the stars in going the
+same distance, and thus becomes faster than the average
+(Fig.~\figureref{i120}{41}).
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i120}{Fig.~41}
+
+Some solar days being longer than others, and the
+sun being sometimes
+slow and sometimes
+fast, together with
+standard time adoptions
+whereby most
+places have their
+watches set by mean
+solar time at some
+given meridian, make
+it unsafe to set one's
+watch by the sun without making many corrections.
+
+The shortest day in the northern hemisphere is about
+December~22d; about that time the sun is neither fast nor
+slow, but it then begins to get slow. So as the days get
+longer the sun does not rise any earlier until about the
+second week of January. After Christmas one may notice
+the later and later time of sunsets. In schools in the
+northern states beginning work at 8~o'clock in the morning,
+it is noticed that the mornings are actually darker for a
+while after the Christmas holidays than before, though the
+shortest day of the year has passed.
+
+\Paragraph{Sidereal Day Shorter than Solar Day.} If one wanted

+\Section{\smallsize SUMMARY} %[**TN: italic 'Summary' in original - changed for consistency]
+
+Note carefully these propositions:
+\begin{slist}
+\item[1.] The earth's orbit is an ellipse.
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+
+\item[2.] The earth's orbital direction is the same as the direction of its
+axial motion.
+
+\item[3.] The rate of the earth's rotation is uniform, hence sidereal days
+are of equal length.
+
+\item[4.] The orbit of the earth is in nearly the same plane as that of the
+equator.
+
+\item[5.] The earth's revolution around the sun makes the sun seem to
+creep backward among the stars from west to east, falling
+behind them about a degree a day. The stars seem to swing
+around the earth, daily gaining about four minutes upon the
+sun.
+
+\item[6.] The rate of the earth's orbital motion determines the rate of the
+sun's apparent annual backward motion among the stars.
+
+\item[7.] The rate of the earth's orbital motion varies, being fastest when
+the earth is nearest the sun or in perihelion, and slowest when
+farthest from the sun or in aphelion.
+
+\item[8.] The sun's apparent annual motion, backward or eastward among
+the stars, is greater when in or near perihelion (December~31)
+than at any other time.
+
+\item[9.] The length of solar days varies, averaging $24$~hours in length.
+There are two reasons for this variation.
+\begin{ssublist}
+\item[\textit{a.}] Because the earth's orbital motion is not uniform, it being faster
+when nearer the sun, and slower when farther from it.
+
+\item[\textit{b.}] Because when near the equinoxes the apparent annual motion
+of the sun in the celestial sphere is more diagonal than when
+near the tropics.
+\end{ssublist}
+%% -----File: 122.png---Folio 123-------
+\item[10.] Because of these two sets of causes, solar days are more than $24$~hours
+in length from December~25 to April~15 and from June~15
+to September~1, and less than $24$~hours in length from April~15
+to June~15 and from September~1 to December~25.

+\index{Equation of time@Equation of time \indexglossref{Equation of time}|(}%
+
+\Paragraph{Sun Fast or Sun Slow.} The relation of the apparent
+\index{Sun!fast or slow|(}%
+solar time to mean solar time is called the equation of
+time. As just shown, the apparent eastward motion of
+the sun in the ecliptic is faster than the average twice a
+year, and slower than the average twice a year. A fictitious
+sun is imagined to move at a uniform rate eastward
+in the celestial equator, starting with the apparent sun at
+the vernal equinox (see \glossref{Equinox} in Glossary)
+and completing
+its annual course around the celestial sphere in
+the same time in which the sun apparently makes its circuit
+of the ecliptic. While, excepting four times a year,
+the apparent sun is fast or slow as compared with this
+fictitious sun which indicates mean solar time, their difference
+at any moment, or the equation of time, may be
+accurately calculated.
+
+The equation of time is indicated in various ways. The
+usual method is to indicate the time by which the apparent
+sun is faster than the average by a minus sign, and the
+time by which it is slower than the average by a plus sign.
+The apparent time and the equation of time thus indicated,
+when combined, will give the mean time. Thus, if the sun
+indicates noon (apparent time), and we know the equation
+to be $-7$~m.\ (sun fast, $7$~m.), we know it is $11$~h.\ $53$~m.,~\AM{}
+by mean solar time.
+
+Any almanac shows the equation of time for any day of
+\index{Almanac|(}%
+the year. It is indicated in a variety of ways.
+
+\textit{a.} In the World Almanac it is given under the title
+\index{World Almanac}%
+%% -----File: 123.png---Folio 124-------
+``Sun on Meridian.'' The local mean solar time of the
+sun's crossing a meridian is given to the nearest second.
+Thus Jan.~1, 1908, it is given as $12$~h.\ $3$~m.\ $16$~s. We know
+from this that the apparent sun is $3$~m.\ $16$~s.\ slow of the
+average on that date.
+
+\textit{b.} In the Old Farmer's Almanac the equation of time is
+\index{Old Farmer's Almanac}%
+given in a column headed ``Sun Fast,'' or ``Sun Slow.''
+
+\textit{c.}~In some places the equation of time is indicated by
+the words, ``clock ahead of sun,'' and ``clock behind sun.''
+Of course the student knows from this that if the clock is
+ahead of the sun, the sun is slower than the average, and,
+conversely, if the clock is behind the sun, the latter must
+be faster than the average.
+
+\textit{d.} Most almanacs give times of sunrise and of sunset.
+Now half way between sunrise and sunset it is apparent
+noon. Suppose the sun rises at 7:24~o'clock, \AM, and
+sets at 4:43~o'clock, \PM. Half way between those times
+is 12:03$\frac{1}{2}$~o'clock, the time when the sun is on the
+meridian, and thus the sun is $3\frac{1}{2}$~minutes slow (Jan.~1, at
+New York).

+This table indicates that at 12~o'clock noon, on the
+meridian of Greenwich on Jan.~1, 1908, the sun is slow $3$~m.\
+$10.29$~s., and is losing $1.200$~s.\ each hour from that moment.
+We know it is losing, for we find that on January~2 the
+sun is slow $3$~m.\ $38.93$~s., and by that time its rate of loss
+is slightly less, being $1.188$~s.\ each hour.
+
+Suppose you are at Hamburg on Jan.~1, 1908, when
+\index{Hamburg, Germany}%
+it is noon according to standard time of Germany, one
+hour before Greenwich mean noon. The equation of time
+will be the same as at Greenwich less $1.200$~s.\ for the hour's
+difference, or ($3~\text{m.}\ 10.29~\text{s.} - 1.200~\text{s.}$) $3$~m.\ $9.09$~s. If you

+time, five hours after Greenwich noon, it is obvious
+that the sun is $5 × 1.200$~s.\ or $6$~s.\ slower than it was at
+Greenwich mean noon. The equation of time at New
+York would then be $3~\text{m.}\ 10.29~\text{s.} + 6~\text{s.}$\ or $3$~m.\ $16.29$~s.

+\index{Analemma@Analemma \indexglossref{Analemma}, description of}%
+equation of time for any day of the year, and also indicates
+the declination of the sun (or its distance from the celestial
+equator). Since our year has $365\frac{1}{4}$~days, the equation of
+time for a given date of one year will not be quite the
+same as that of the same date in a succeeding year. That
+for 1910 will be approximately one fourth of a day or six
+hours later in each day than for~1909; that is, the table
+for Greenwich in 1910 will be very nearly correct for Central

+United States in~1909. Since for the ordinary purposes
+\index{United States}%
+of the student using this book an error of a few
+seconds is inappreciable, the analemma will answer for
+most of his calculations.
+
+The vertical lines of the analemma represent the number
+of minutes the apparent sun is slow or fast as compared
+with the mean sun. For example, the dot representing
+February~25 is a little over half way between the
+lines representing sun slow $12$~m.\ and~$14$~m. The sun is then
+slow about $13$~m.\ $18$~s. It will be observed that April~15,
+June~15, September~1, and December~25 are on the central
+line. The equation of time is then zero, and the sun may
+be said to be ``on time.'' Persons living in the United
+States on the 90th~meridian will see the shadow due north
+at 12~o'clock on those days; if west of a standard time
+meridian one will note the north shadow when it is past
+12~o'clock, four minutes for every degree; and, if east of
+a standard time meridian, before 12~o'clock four minutes
+for each degree. Since the analemma shows how fast or
+slow the sun is each day, it is obvious that, knowing one's

+\Paragraph{To Ascertain Your Longitude.} To do this your watch
+\index{Longitude@Longitude \indexglossref{Longitude}!how determined}%
+must show correct standard time. You must also have a
+\index{Time@Time \indexglossref{Time}, apparent solar!standard}%
+true north-south line.
+
+1. Carefully observe the time when the shadow is north.
+Ascertain from the analemma the number of minutes and
+seconds the sun is fast or slow.
+
+2. If fast, add that amount to the time by your watch;
+if slow, subtract. This gives your mean local time.
+
+3. Divide the minutes and seconds past or before twelve
+by four. This gives you the number of degrees and
+minutes you are from the standard time meridian. If
+the corrected time is before twelve, you are east of it; if
+after, you are west of it.
+
+4. Subtract (or add) the number of degrees you are
+east (or west) of the standard time meridian, and this is
+your longitude.
+
+For example, say the date is October~5th. 1.~Your
+watch says $12$~h.\ $10$~m.\ $30$~s.,~\PM, when the shadow is north.
+The analemma shows the sun to be $11$~m.\ $30$~s.\ fast. 2.~The
+sun being fast, you add these and get 12:22~o'clock,~\PM{}
+This is the mean local time of your place. 3.~Dividing
+the minutes past twelve by four, you get $5$~m.\ $30$~s. This is
+the number of degrees and minutes you are west from the
+standard meridian. If you live in the Central standard
+\index{Central time, in Europe!in the United States}%
+time belt of the United States, your longitude is $90°$ plus
+\index{United States}%
+$5°~30'$, or~$95°~30'$. If you are in the Eastern time belt,
+it is $75°$ plus $5°~30'$. If you are in Spain, it is $0°$ plus
+\index{Spain}%
+$5°~30'$, and so on.
+%% -----File: 128.png---Folio 129-------
+
+\Paragraph{To Set Your Watch.}\nblabel{page:129} To do this you must know your
+\index{Watch, to set by sun}%
+longitude and have a true north-south line.
+
+1. Find the difference between your longitude and that
+of the standard time meridian in accordance with which
+\index{Time@Time \indexglossref{Time}, apparent solar!standard}%
+you wish to set your watch. In Eastern United States the
+\index{United States}%
+standard time meridian is the~75th, in Central United
+States the~90th,~etc.
+
+2. Multiply the number of degrees and seconds of
+difference by four. This gives you the number of minutes
+and seconds your time is faster or slower than local time.
+If you are east of the standard meridian, your watch must
+be set slower than local time; if west, faster.
+
+3. From the analemma observe the position of the sun
+whe\-ther fast or slow and how much. If fast, subtract
+that time from the time obtained in step two; if slow, add.
+This gives you the time before or after twelve when the
+shadow will be north; before twelve if you are east of the
+standard time meridian, after twelve if you are west.
+
+4. Carefully set your watch at the time indicated in step
+three when the sun's shadow crosses the north-south line.
+
+For example, suppose your longitude is $87°~37'$~W.
+(Chicago). 1.~The difference between your longitude and
+\index{Chicago, Ill.}%
+\index{Chicago, Ill.}%
+your standard time meridian,~$90°$, is $2°~23'$. 2.~Multiplying
+this difference by four we get $9°~32'$, the minutes
+and seconds your time is slower than the sun's average
+time. That is, the sun on the average casts a north
+shadow at $11$~h.\ $50$~m.\ $28$~s.\ at your longitude. 3.~From the
+analemma we see the sun is $14$~m.\ $15$~s.\ slow on February~6.
+The time being slow, we add this to $11$~h.\ $50$~m.\ $28$~s.\ and
+get $12$~h.\ $4$~m.\ $43$~s., or $4$~m.\ $43$~s.\ past twelve when the
+shadow will be north. 4.~Just before the shadow is north
+get your watch ready, and the moment the shadow is north
+set it $4$~m.\ $43$~s.\ past twelve.

+
+Steps 1,~2, and~3 are exactly as in the foregoing explanation
+how to set your watch by the sun. At the time you
+obtain in step~3 you know the shadow is north; then draw
+the line of the shadow, or, if out of doors, drive stakes or

+\Paragraph{Civil and Astronomical Days.} The mean solar day of
+twenty-four hours reckoned from midnight is called a civil
+day, and among all Christian nations has the sanction of
+law and usage. Since astronomers work at night they
+reckon a day from noon. Thus the civil forenoon is
+dated a day ahead of the astronomical day, the afternoon
+\index{Astronomical day}%
+\index{Day@Day \indexglossref{Day}\phantomsection\label{idx:d}, astronomical}%
+being the last half of the civil day but the beginning of
+\index{Civil day}%
+\index{Day@Day \indexglossref{Day}\phantomsection\label{idx:d}, astronomical!civil}%
+the astronomical day. Before the invention of clocks and
+watches, the sundial was the common standard for the
+time during each day, and this, as we have seen, is a constantly
+varying one. When clocks were invented it was
+found impossible to have them so adjusted as to gain or
+lose with the sun. Until 1815 a civil day in France was a
+\index{France}%
+day according to the actual position of the sun, and hence
+\index{Sun!fast or slow|)}%
+was a very uncertain affair.
+
+\Section{A Few Facts: Do You Understand Them?}
+
+1. A day of twenty-four hours as we commonly use the
+term, is not one rotation of the earth. A solar day is a
+\index{Day@Day \indexglossref{Day}\phantomsection\label{idx:d}, astronomical!solar}%
+little more than one complete rotation and averages
+exactly twenty-four hours in length. This is a civil or
+legal day.
+
+2. A sidereal day is the time of one rotation of the
+\index{Day@Day \indexglossref{Day}\phantomsection\label{idx:d}, astronomical!sidereal}%
+earth on its axis.
+\index{Analemma@Analemma \indexglossref{Analemma}, description of!uses of|)}%
+%% -----File: 130.png---Folio 131-------
+
+3. There are $366$~rotations of the earth (sidereal days)
+in one year of $365$~days (solar days).
+
+4. A sundial records apparent or actual sun time, which
+\index{Sundial}%
+is the same as mean sun time only four times a year.
+
+5. A clock records mean sun time, and thus corresponds
+to sundial time only four times a year.
+
+6. In many cities using standard time the shadow of the
+sun is never in a north-south line when the clock strikes
+twelve. This is true of all cities more than $4°$~east or
+west of the meridian on which their standard time is based.
+
+7. Any city within $4°$~of its standard time meridian will
+have north-south shadow lines at twelve o'clock no more
+than four times a year at the most. Strictly speaking,
+practically no city ever has a shadow exactly north-south
+at twelve o'clock.

+\Chapter{VII}{Time and the Calendar}
+\index{Calendar|(}%
+
+``\First{In} the early days of mankind, it is not probable that
+there was any concern at all about dates, or seasons, or
+years. Herodotus is called the father of history, and his
+\index{Herodotus@Herodotus (he\;r\u{o}d$'$\;o\;tus)}%
+history does not contain a single date. Substantially
+the same may be said of Thucydides, who wrote only a

+
+\Paragraph{Sidereal Year. Tropical Year.}\nblabel{page:132} As there are two kinds
+\index{Sidereal, clock!year}%
+\index{Year}%
+of days, solar and sidereal, there are two kinds of years,
+solar or tropical years, and sidereal years, but for very
+different reasons. The sidereal year is the time elapsing
+between the passage of the earth's center over a given
+point in its orbit until it crosses it again. For reasons
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+not properly discussed here (see Precession of the Equinoxes,
+p.~\pageref{page:286}), the point in the orbit where the earth is
+when the vertical ray is on the equator shifts slightly
+westward so that we reach the point of the vernal equinox
+a second time a few minutes before a sidereal year has
+elapsed. The time elapsing from the sun's crossing of the
+celestial equator in the spring until the crossing the next
+spring is a \emph{tropical}, year and is what we mean when we
+say ``a year.''\footnote
+ {A third kind of year is considered in astronomy, the anomalistic
+ year, the time occupied by the earth in traveling from perihelion to
+ perihelion again. Its length is $365$~d.\ $6$~h.\ $13$~m.\ $48.09$~s. The lunar year,
+ twelve new moons, is about eleven days shorter than the tropical
+ year. The length of a sidereal year is $365$~d.\ $6$~h.\ $9$~m.\ $8.97$~s.}
+Since it is the tropical year that we
+%% -----File: 132.png---Folio 133-------
+attempt to fit into an annual calendar and which marks
+the year of seasons, it is well to remember its length:
+\index{Year}%
+$365$~d.\ $5$~h.\ $48$~m.\ $45.51$~s.\ ($365.2422$~d.). The adjustment
+of the days, weeks, and months into a calendar
+\index{Month@Month \indexglossref{Month}}%
+that does not change from year to year but brings
+the annual holidays around in the proper seasons, has
+been a difficult task for the human race to accomplish.
+If the length of the year were an even number of days
+and that number was exactly divisible by twelve,
+seven, and four, we could easily have seven days in a week,
+four weeks in a month, and twelve months in a year and
+have no time to carry over into another year or month.
+
+\Paragraph{The Moon the Measurer.} Among the ancients the
+moon was the great measurer of time, our word month
+comes from the word moon, and in connection with its
+changing phases religious feasts and celebrations were
+observed. Even to-day we reckon Easter and some other
+holy days by reference to the moon. Now the natural
+units of time are the solar day, the lunar month (about
+$29\frac{1}{2}$~days), and the tropical year. But their lengths are
+prime to each other. For some reasons not clearly known,
+but believed to be in accordance with the four phases of
+the moon, the ancient Egyptians and Chaldeans divided
+\index{Egypt}%
+\index{Chaldeans}%
+the month into four weeks of seven days each. The
+addition of the week as a unit of time which is naturally
+related only to the day, made confusion worse confounded.
+Various devices have been used at different times to make
+the same date come around regularly in the same season
+year after year, but changes made by priests who were
+ignorant as to the astronomical data and by more ignorant
+kings often resulted in great confusion. The very
+%% -----File: 133.png---Folio 134-------
+exact length of the solar year in the possession of the
+ancient Egyptians seems to have been little regarded.
+
+\Paragraph{Early Roman Calendar.} Since our calendar is the same
+\index{Calendar!early Roman}%
+\index{Roman calendar}%
+as that worked out by the Romans, a brief sketch of their
+system may be helpful. The ancient Romans seem to
+have had ten months, the first being March. We can see
+\index{Month@Month \indexglossref{Month}}%
+that this was the case from the fact that September means
+seventh; October, eighth; November, ninth; and December,
+tenth. It was possibly during the reign of Numa
+\index{Numa}%
+that two months were added, January and February.
+There are about $29\frac{1}{2}$~days in a lunar month, or from one
+new moon to the next, so to have their months conform
+to the moons they were given $29$~and~$30$ days alternately,
+beginning with January. This gave them twelve
+lunar months in a year of $354$~days. It was thought
+unlucky to have the number even, so a day was added for
+luck.
+
+This year, having but $355$~days, was over ten days too
+short, so festivals that came in the summer season would
+appear ten days earlier each year, until those dedicated
+to Bacchus, the god of wine, came when the grapes were
+\index{Bacchus}%
+still green, and those of Ceres, the goddess of the harvest,
+\index{Ceres}%
+before the heads of the wheat had appeared. To correct
+this an extra month was added, called Mercedonius, every
+\index{Mercedonius}%
+second year. Since the length of this month was not fixed
+by law but was determined by the pontiffs, it gave rise
+to serious corruption and fraud, interfering with the collection
+of debts by the dropping out of certain expected
+dates, lengthening the terms of office of favorites,~etc.
+
+\Paragraph{The Julian and the Augustan Calendars.} In the year
+\index{Caesar, Augustus!Julius}%
+\index{Julian calendar}%
+46~\BC, Julius Caesar, aided by the Egyptian astronomer,
+Sosigenes, reformed the calendar. He decreed that beginning
+\index{Sosigenes@Sosigenes (so\;s\u{\i}g$'$e\;n\={e}z)}%
+with January the months should have alternately $31$~and
+%% -----File: 134.png---Folio 135-------
+$30$~days, save February, to which was assigned $29$~days,
+and every fourth year an additional day. This
+made a year of exactly $365\tfrac{1}{4}$~days. Since the true year has
+$365$~days, $5$~hours, $48$~min., $45.51$~sec., and the Julian year
+had $365$~days, $6$~hours, it was $11$~min.,
+$14.49$~sec.\ too long.

+During the reign of Augustus

+another day was taken from February
+and added to August in order
+that that month, the name of which
+had been changed from Sextilis to
+August in his honor, might have as
+many days in it as the month
+Quintilis, whose name had been
+changed to July in honor of Julius Caesar. To prevent the
+three months, July, August, and September, from having $31$
+days each, such an arrangement being considered unlucky,
+Augustus ordered that one day be taken from September
+and added to October, one from November and added to
+December. Thus we find the easy plan of remembering

+\Paragraph{The Gregorian Calendar.} This Julian calendar, as it
+\index{Calendar!Augustan}%

+is called, was adopted by European countries just as they
+adopted other Roman customs. Its length was $365.25$~days,
+whereas the true length of the year is $365.2422$~days.
+While the error was only $.0078$~of a day, in the
+course of centuries this addition to the true year began
+to amount to days. By 1582 the difference had amounted
+to about $13$~days, so that the time
+%% -----File: 135.png---Folio 136-------
+when the sun crosses the celestial equator, occurred the
+11th~of March. In that year Pope Gregory~XIII reformed

+March~21st, the same date as it did in the year 325~\AD,

+$11$~min.\ $14$~sec.\ too long. The error of $10$~days was
+corrected by having the date following October~4th of that
+year recorded as October~15. To prevent a recurrence of
+the error, the Pope further decreed that thereafter the
+centurial years not divisible by~400 should not be counted
+as leap years. Thus the years 1600, 2000, 2400,~etc., are
+leap years, but the years 1700, 1900, 2100,~etc., are not
+leap years. This calculation reduces the error to a very
+low point, as according to the Gregorian calendar nearly
+$4000$ years must elapse before the error amounts to a
+single day.

+The Gregorian calendar was soon adopted in all Roman

+In England and her colonies the change to the Gregorian

+\index{Old Style|(}%
+before this change
+are usually kept as

+sometimes being
+written after the

+To translate a date
+into the Gregorian or

+which it occurred.
+For example, Columbus
+\index{Columbus, Christopher}%
+discovered land
+Oct.~12, 1492, \OS.
+According to the
+Gregorian calendar
+a change of~10 days
+was necessary in
+1582. In~1500, leap
+year was counted by
+the old style but
+should not have
+been counted by the
+new style. Hence,
+in the century ending
+1500, only~9 days
+difference had been made. So the discovery of America
+occurred October~12,~\OS{} or October~21,~\NS. English
+%% -----File: 137.png---Folio 138-------
+historians often write such dates October~$\dfrac{12}{21}$, the upper date
+referring to old style and the lower to new style.
+
+A historian usually follows the dates in the calendar used
+\index{Calendar!early Roman}%
+by his country at the time of the event. If, however, the
+event refers to two nations having different calendars, both
+dates are given. Thus, throughout Macaulay's ``History
+\index{Macaulay's History of England}%
+of England'' one sees such dates as the following: Avaux,
+$\dfrac{\text{July}\ 27}{\text{Aug.}\ 6}$, 1689. (Vol.~III\@.) A few dates in American history
+prior to September, 1752, have been changed to agree
+with the new style. Thus Washington was born Feb.~11,
+\index{Washington, George}%
+1731,~\OS, but we always write it Feb.~22, 1732. The %[**TN: original text omitted period after O.S]
+reason why all such dates are not translated into new
+style is because great confusion would result, and, besides,
+some incongruities would obtain. Thus the principal ship
+of Columbus was wrecked Dec.~25, 1492, and Sir Isaac
+\index{Columbus, Christopher}%
+Newton was born Dec.~25, 1642, and since in each case
+\index{Newton, Isaac}%
+this was Christmas, it would hardly do to record them as
+Christmas, Jan.~3, 1493, in the former instance, or as
+Christmas, Jan.~4, 1643, in the latter case, as we should
+have to do to write them in new style.

+the year had commenced with the March equinox, as
+we notice in the names of the last months, September,
+October, November, December, meaning 7th, 8th, 9th,
+10th, which could only have those names by counting
+back to March as the first month. By the time of Julius
+Caesar the December solstice was commonly regarded as
+the beginning of the year, and he confirmed the change,
+making his new year begin January first. The later
+Teutonic nations for a long time continued counting the
+beginning of the year from March~25th. In~1563, by an
+\index{Gregorian calendar|)}%
+%% -----File: 138.png---Folio 139-------
+edict of Charles~IX, France changed the time of the beginning
+\index{Charles IX., King of France}%
+\index{France}%
+of the year to January first. In~1600 Scotland made
+\index{Scotland}%
+the same change and England did the same in~1752 when
+\index{England}%
+the Gregorian system was adopted there. Dates between
+the first of January and the twenty-fifth of March from
+1600 to~1752 are in one year in Scotland and another year
+in England. In Macaulay's ``History of England'' (Vol.~III,
+\index{Macaulay's History of England}%
+p.~258), he gives the following reference: ``Act.\ Parl.\ Scot.,
+Mar.~19, 1689--90.'' The date being between January~1st
+and March~25th in the interval between 1600 and
+1752, it was recorded as the year~1689 in England, and a
+year later, or~1690, in Scotland---Scotland dating the new
+year from January~1st, England from March~25th. This
+explains also why Washington's birthday was in 1731,~\OS,
+\index{Washington, George}%
+and 1732,~\NS, since English colonies used the same
+system of dating as the mother country.

+Dates in these countries recorded by Protestants or Roman

+\Paragraph{Chinese Calendar.} The Chinese also use a lunar calendar;

+To correct the error due to so short a year, seven out of
+every nineteen years have thirteen months each. This
+still leaves the average year too short, so in every cycle of
+sixty years, twenty-two extra months are intercalated.
+
+\Paragraph{Ancient Mexican Calendar.} The ancient Mexicans had a

+\Paragraph{Chaldean Calendar.}\label{page:141} Perhaps the most ancient calendar
+\index{Calendar!Chaldean}%
+of which we have record, and the one which with modifications

+to us, was the calendar of the Chaldeans. Long
+\index{Chaldeans}%
+before Abraham left Ur of the Chaldees (see Genesis~xi,~31;
+\index{Ur, ancient Chaldean city}%
+\index{Abraham}%
+\index{Genesis}%
+Nehemiah~ix,~7, etc.)\ that city had a royal observatory,
+\index{Nehemiah}%
+and Chaldeans had made subdivisions of the celestial sphere
+and worked out the calendar upon which ours is based.
+
+Few of us can fail to recall how hard fractions were
+when we first studied them, and how we avoided them in
+our calculations as much as possible. For exactly the
+same reason these ancient Chaldeans used the number~$60$
+as their unit wherever possible, because that number
+being divisible by more numbers than any other less than~$100$,
+its use and the use of any six or a multiple of six
+avoided fractions. Thus they divided circles into $360$~degrees
+($6 × 60$), each degree into $60$~minutes, and each
+minute into $60$~seconds. They divided the zodiac into
+\index{Zodiac}%
+%% -----File: 141.png---Folio 142-------
+spaces of $30°$~each, giving us the plan of twelve months
+in the year. Their divisions of the day led to our $24$~hours,
+each having $60$~minutes, with $60$~seconds each.
+They used the week of seven days, one for each of the
+heavenly bodies that were seen to move in the zodiac.
+This origin is suggested in the names of the days of the

+do not feel so warm as those of midday, and, if living outside
+the torrid zone, that rays from the low winter sun in
+some way lack the heating power of those from the high

+so apparent. The vertical rays are not warmer than the
+slanting ones, but the more nearly vertical the sun, the
+more heat rays are intercepted by a given surface. If
+you place a tub in the rain and tip it so that the rain falls
+in slantingly, it is obvious that less water will be caught
+than if the tub stood at right angles to the course of the
+raindrops. But before we take up in detail the effects of
+the shifting rays of the sun, let us carefully examine the
+conditions and causes of the shifting.
+
+\Paragraph{Motions of the Earth.} The direction and rate of the
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+earth's \emph{rotation} are ascertained from the direction and
+rate of the apparent rotation of the celestial sphere. The
+direction and rate of the earth's \emph{revolution} are ascertained
+from the apparent revolution of the sun among the stars
+of the celestial sphere. Just as any change in the rotation
+of the earth would produce a corresponding change in the
+apparent rotation of the celestial sphere, so any change
+in the revolution of the earth would produce a corresponding
+change in the apparent revolution of the sun.
+
+Were the sun to pass among the stars at right angles to
+%% -----File: 146.png---Folio 147-------
+the celestial equator, passing through the celestial poles,
+we should know that the earth went around the sun in a
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+path whose plane was perpendicular to the plane of the
+equator and was in the plane of the axis. In such an
+event the sun at some time during the year would shine
+vertically on each point on the earth's surface. Seasons
+would be nearly the same in one portion of the earth
+as in another. The sun would sometimes cast a north
+shadow at any given place and sometimes a south shadow.
+Were the sun always in the celestial equator, the ecliptic
+coinciding with it, we should know that the earth traveled
+around the sun at right angles to the axis. The vertical
+\index{Vertical ray of sun}%
+ray of the sun would then always be overhead at noon on
+the equator, and no change in season would occur. Were
+the plane of the earth's orbit at an angle of~$45°$ from the
+equator the ecliptic would extend half way between the
+poles and the equator, and the sun would at one time get
+within~$45°$ of the North star and six months later~$45°$
+from the South star. The vertical ray on the earth would
+then travel from~$45°$ south latitude to~$45°$ north latitude,
+and the torrid zone would be~$90°$ wide.

+\Subparagraph{Shadows.} At noon the sun, being on the celestial
+equator, is directly overhead and casts no shadow, or the
+shadow is directly underneath. In the afternoon the
+shadow is due east, lengthening as the sun approaches
+the due west point in the horizon. At this time the sun's
+rays extend from pole to pole. The \emph{circle of illumination},
+\index{Circle of illumination, or day circle@Circle of illumination, or day circle\phantomsection\label{idx:coi}}%
+that great circle separating the lighted half of the earth
+from the half which is turned away from the sun, since it
+%% -----File: 149.png---Folio 150-------
+extends at this time from pole to pole, coincides with a
+meridian circle and bisects each parallel. Half of each
+parallel being in the light and half in the dark, during
+one rotation every point will be in the light half a day and
+away from the sun the other half, and day and night are
+equal everywhere on the globe.

+\emph{After March~21} the sun creeps back in its orbit, gradually,
+away from the celestial equator toward the North
+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!celestial}%
+\index{Celestial equator}%
+star. At the equator the sun thus rises more and more
+toward the north of the due east point on the horizon,
+and at noon casts a shadow toward the south. As the
+sun gets farther from the celestial equator, the south noon
+shadow lengthens, and the sun rises and sets farther
+toward the north of east and west.
+
+\emph{On June~21} the sun has reached the point in the ecliptic
+farthest from the celestial equator, about $23\frac{1}{2}°$~north.
+The vertical ray on the earth is at a corresponding distance
+from the equator. The sun is near the constellation

+from his course toward the polestar is called the Tropic
+(from a Greek word meaning \emph{turning}) of Cancer. Our

+date the circle of illumination extends $23\frac{1}{2\extrafracspacing}°$~beyond the
+north pole, and all of the parallels north of~$66\frac{1}{2}°$ from the
+equator are entirely within this circle of illumination and
+have daylight during the entire rotation of the earth. At
+this time the circle of illumination cuts unequally parallels
+north of the equator so that more than half of them are in
+the lighted portion, and hence days are longer than nights
+in the northern hemisphere. South of the equator the
+conditions are reversed. The circle of illumination does
+not extend so far south as the south pole, but falls short

+of it~$23\frac{1}{2}°$, and consequently all parallels south of~$66\frac{1}{2}°$ are

+night. Other circles south of the equator are so
+intersected by the circle of illumination that less than
+half of them are in the lighted side of the earth, and the
+days are shorter than the nights. It is midwinter there.
+
+\emph{After June~21} gradually the sun creeps along in its
+orbit away from this northern point in the celestial sphere
+toward the celestial equator. The circle of illumination
+again draws toward the poles, the days are more nearly
+of the same length as the nights, the noon sun is more
+nearly overhead at the equator again, until by September~23,
+the autumnal equinox, the sun is again on the celestial
+equator, and conditions are exactly as they were at the
+March equinox.

+
+\emph{After September~23} the sun, passing toward the South
+star from the celestial equator, rises to the south of a due
+\index{South, on map!star}%
+east line on the equator, and at noon is to the south of the
+zenith, casting a north shadow. The circle of illumination
+withdraws from the north pole, leaving it in darkness,
+and extends beyond the south pole, spreading there the
+glad sunshine. Days grow shorter north of the equator, less
+than half of their parallels being in the lighted half, and

+after this date is seen no more for six months. Now the
+stars come out and may be seen perpetually tracing their
+circular courses around the polestar. Because of the reflection
+and refraction of the rays of light in the air, twilight
+prevails when the sun is not more than about $18°$~below
+the horizon, so that for only a small portion of the six
+months' winter is it dark, and even then the long journeys
+of the moon above the celestial equator, the bright stars
+that never set, and the auroras, prevent total darkness
+(see p.~\pageref{page:164}). On December~22 the sun is $23\frac{1}{2}°$~below the

+\Paragraph{Parallelism of the Earth's Axis.} Another condition of
+the earth in its revolution should be borne in mind in
+explaining change of seasons. The earth might rotate on
+an axis and revolve around the sun with the axis inclined~$23\frac{1}{2}°$
+and still give us no change in seasons. This can
+easily be demonstrated by carrying a globe around a central
+object representing the sun, and by rotating the axis
+one can maintain the same inclination but keep the vertical
+ray continually at the equator or at any other circle
+within the tropics. In order to get the shifting of the
+vertical ray and change of seasons which now obtain, the
+axis must constantly point in the same direction, and its
+position at one time be parallel to its position at any other
+time. This is called the parallelism of the earth's axis.
+
+That the earth's axis has a very slow rotary motion, a
+slight periodic ``nodding'' which varies its inclination
+toward the plane of the ecliptic, and also irregular motions
+of diverse character, need not confuse us here, as they are
+either so minute as to require very delicate observations
+to determine them, or so slow as to require many years to
+show a change. These three motions of the axis are discussed
+in the Appendix under ``Precession of the Equinoxes,''
+``Nutation of the Poles,'' and ``Wandering of the
+Poles'' (p.~\pageref{page:286}).

+\Paragraph{\nbstretchyspace Experiments with the Gyroscope.} The \emph{gyroscope}, probably
+familiar to most persons, admirably illustrates the
+causes of the parallelism of the earth's axis. A disk, supported
+in a ring, is rapidly whirled, and the rotation tends
+to keep the axis of the disk always pointing in the same
+direction. If the ring be held in the hands and carried
+about, the disk rapidly rotating, it will be discovered that
+any attempt to change the direction of the axis will meet
+with resistance. This is shown in the simple fact that a

+great circle. The vertical ray marks the center of the
+lighted half of the surface of the earth. At the equinoxes

+\index{Vertical ray of sun}%
+the vertical ray is at the equator, and the circle of illumination
+extends from pole to pole bisecting every parallel.
+Since at this time any given parallel is cut into two equal
+parts by the circle of illumination, one half of it is in the
+sunlight, and one half of it is in darkness, and during one
+rotation a point on a parallel will have had twelve hours
+day and twelve hours night. (No allowance is made for
+refraction or twilight.)
+
+\Paragraph{Day's Length after the Equinoxes.} After the vernal
+equinox the vertical ray moves northward, and the circle
+of illumination extends beyond the north pole but falls
+short of the south pole. Then all parallels, save the
+equator, are unequally divided by the circle of illumination,
+for more than half of each parallel north of the equator
+is in the light, and more than half of each parallel south
+of the equator is in darkness. Consequently, while the
+vertical ray is north of the equator, or from March~21 to
+September~23, the days are longer than the nights north
+of the equator, but are shorter than the nights south of
+the equator.
+
+During the other half of the year, when the vertical ray
+is south of the equator, these conditions are exactly
+reversed. The farther the vertical ray is from the equator,
+the farther is the circle of illumination extended beyond
+one pole and away from the other pole, and the more
+unevenly are the parallels divided by it; hence the days
+are proportionally longer in the hemisphere where the
+vertical ray is, and the nights longer in the opposite hemisphere.
+The farther from the equator, too, the greater
+is the difference, as may be observed from Figure~\figureref{i161}{50},
+page~\pageref{fig:i161}. Parallels near the equator are always nearly
+bisected by the circle of illumination, and hence day
+nearly equals night there the year around.

+
+\Paragraph{Day's Length at the Equator.} How does the length of
+day at the equator compare with the length of night?
+When days are shorter south of the equator, if they are
+longer north of it and \textit{vice versa}, at the equator they must
+be of the same length. The equator is always bisected
+by the circle of illumination, consequently half of it is
+always in the sunlight. This proposition, simple though
+it is, often needs further demonstration to be seen clearly.
+It will be obvious if one sees:
+
+(\textit{a})~A point on a sphere $180°$ in any direction from a
+point in a great circle lies in the same circle.
+
+(\textit{b})~Two great circles on the same sphere must cross
+each other at least once.
+
+(\textit{c})~A point $180°$ from this point of intersection common
+to both great circles, will lie in each of them, and hence
+must be a point common to both and a point of intersection.
+Hence two great circles, extending in any
+direction, intersect each other a second time~$180°$ from
+the first point of crossing, or half way around. The circle
+of illumination and equator are both great circles and
+hence bisect each other. If the equator is always bisected
+by the circle of illumination, half of it must always be in
+the light and half in the dark.
+
+\Paragraph{Day's Length at the Poles.} The length of day at the
+north pole is a little more than six months, since it extends
+from March~21 until September~23, or $186$~days. At the
+north pole night extends from September~23 until March~21,
+and is thus $179$~days in length. It is just opposite at
+the south pole, $179$~days of sunshine and $186$~days of
+twilight and darkness. This is only roughly stated in full
+days, and makes no allowance for refraction of light or
+twilight.

+The rays of light on entering the atmosphere are bent

+direction is called refraction. When a ray of light enters
+obliquely a medium of greater density, as in passing
+through from the upper rarer atmosphere to the lower
+denser layers, or from air into water, the rays are bent in
+the direction toward a perpendicular to the surface or less
+obliquely. This is called the first law of refraction. The
+second law of refraction is the converse of this; that is, on
+entering a rarer medium the ray is bent more obliquely
+or away from a perpendicular to the surface. When a
+ray of light from an object strikes the eye, we see the
+object in the direction taken by the ray as it enters the
+eye, and if the ray is refracted this will not be the real
+position of the object. Thus a fish in the water (Fig.~\figureref{i158}{48})
+would see the adjacent boy as though the boy were nearly
+above it, for the ray from the boy to the fish is bent
+downwards, and the ray as it enters the eye of the fish
+seems to be coming from a place higher up.

+\Paragraph{Amount of Refraction Varies.} The amount of refraction

+Rays entering perpendicularly are not refracted at all.
+The atmosphere differs very greatly in density at different
+altitudes owing to its weight and elasticity. About one
+half of it is compressed within three miles of the surface
+of the earth, and at a height of ten miles it is so rare that
+sound can scarcely be transmitted through it. A ray of
+light entering the atmosphere obliquely is thus obliged to
+traverse layers of air of increasing density, and is refracted
+more and more as it approaches the earth.

+varies with the temperature, humidity, and pressure
+of the air, all of which affect its density and which must
+be taken into consideration in accurate calculations.
+Since the width of the sun as seen from the earth is about~$32'$,
+when the sun is seen just above the horizon it actually
+is just below it, and since the sun passes one degree in
+about four minutes, the day is thus lengthened about four
+minutes in the latitudes of the United States and more in
+\index{United States}%
+higher latitudes. This accounts for the statement in almanacs
+as to the exact length of the day at the equinoxes.
+Theoretically the day is twelve hours long then, but practically
+%% -----File: 160.png---Folio 161-------
+\index{Barometer}%
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+it is a few minutes longer. Occasionally there is
+an eclipse of the moon observed just before the sun has
+\index{Eclipse}%
+\index{Sun}%
+gone down. The earth is exactly between the sun and the
+moon, but because of refraction, both sun and moon are
+seen above the horizon.
+
+The sun and moon often appear flattened when near
+the horizon, especially when seen through a haze. This
+apparent flattening is due to the fact that rays from the
+lower portion are more oblique than those from the upper
+portion, and hence it is apparently lifted up more than
+the upper portion.
+
+\Section{Twilight}
+\index{Twilight|(}%
+
+The atmosphere has the peculiar property of reflecting
+\index{Atmosphere|(}%
+and scattering the rays of light in every direction. Were
+not this the case, no object would be visible out of the
+direct sunshine, shadows would be perfectly black, our
+houses, excepting where the sun shone, would be perfectly
+dark, the blue sky would disappear and we could see the
+stars in the day time just as well as at night. Because
+of this diffusion of light, darkness does not immediately
+set in after sunset, for the rays shining in the upper air
+%% -----File: 161.png---Folio 162-------
+are broken up and reflected to the lower air. This, in
+brief, is the explanation of twilight. There being practically
+no atmosphere on the moon there is no twilight
+there. These and other consequences resulting from the
+lack of an atmospheric envelope on the moon are described
+on p.~\pageref{page:263}. %[**TN: 'pp. 263, 264' in original text]
+
+\Paragraph{Length of Twilight.} Twilight is considered to last while
+the sun is less than about $18°$ below the horizon, though
+the exact distance varies somewhat with the condition of
+the atmosphere, the latitude, and the season of the year.
+There is thus a
+twilight zone immediately
+beyond
+the circle of illumination,
+and outside
+of this zone is the
+true night. Figure~\figureref{i161}{50}
+represents these
+three portions: (1)~the
+hemisphere receiving
+direct rays (slightly more than a hemisphere owing
+to refraction), (2)~the belt $18°$ from the circle of illumination,
+and (3)~the segment in darkness---total save for
+starlight or moonlight. The height of the atmosphere is,
+of course, greatly exaggerated. The atmosphere above
+the line $AB$ receives direct rays of light and reflects
+and diffuses them to the lower layers of atmosphere.

+\Paragraph{Twilight Period Varies with Season.} It will be seen from
+Figure~\figureref{i161}{50} that the fraction of a parallel in the twilight
+zone varies greatly with the latitude and the season. At
+the equator the sun drops down at right angles to the
+horizon, hence covers the $18°$ twilight zone in $\dfrac{18}{360}$ of a

+day or one hour and twelve minutes. This remains practically
+the same the year around there. In latitudes of
+the United States, the twilight averages one and one-half
+hours long, being greater in midsummer. At the poles,
+twilight lasts about two and one-half months.
+
+\Paragraph{Twilight Long in High Latitudes.} The reason why the
+twilight lasts so long in high latitudes in the summer will
+be apparent if we remember that the sun, rising north of
+east, swinging slantingly around and setting to the north
+of west, passes through the twilight zone at the same
+oblique angle. At latitude $48°~33'$ the sun passes around
+so obliquely at the summer solstice that it does not sink $18°$
+below the horizon at midnight, and stays within the twilight
+zone from sunset to sunrise. At higher latitudes on
+that date the sun sinks even less distance below the
+horizon. For example, at St.~Petersburg, latitude $59°~56'~30''$,
+the sun is only $6°~36'~25''$ below the horizon at midnight
+June~21 and it is light enough to read without
+artificial light. From $66°$ to the pole the sun stays
+entirely above the horizon throughout the entire summer
+solstice, that being the boundary of the ``land of the midnight
+sun.''
+
+\Paragraph{Twilight Near the Equator.} ``Here comes science now

+superstition that in the tropics there is almost no twilight,
+and that the `sun goes down like thunder out o' China

+travelers overtaken by the sudden descent of night, and
+men of science used to bear out these tales. Young, in

+observation and experiments, that the tropics have their
+fair share of twilights. He says: `Twilight may be said
+to last until the last bit of illuminated sky disappears from
+the western horizon. In general it has been found that
+this occurs when the sun has sunk about eighteen degrees
+below the horizon\dots. Arequipa, Peru, lies within the
+tropics, and has an elevation of $8,000$~feet, and the air is
+especially pure and dry, and conditions appear to be
+exceptionally favorable for an extremely short twilight.
+On Sunday, June~25, 1899, the following observations
+were made at the Harvard Astronomical Station, which is
+situated here: The sun disappeared at 5:30~\PM, local
+mean time. At 6~\PM, thirty minutes after sunset, I
+could read ordinary print with perfect ease. At 6:30~\PM{}
+I could see the time readily by an ordinary watch. At
+6:40~\PM, seventy minutes after sunset, the illuminated
+western sky was still bright enough to cast a faint shadow
+of an opaque body on a white surface. At 6:50~\PM,
+one hour and twenty minutes after sunset, it had disappeared.
+On August~27, 1899, the following observations
+were made at Vincocaya. The latitude of this place
+is about sixteen degrees south and the altitude $14,360$
+feet. Here it was possible to read coarse print forty-seven
+minutes after sunset, and twilight could be seen for
+an hour and twelve minutes after the sun's disappearance.'

+tropics goes to join the William Tell myth.''---\textit{Harper's

+on the~13th of October.
+
+``From this date until the~1st of March, a period of one

+ray is any warmer, but because more rays fall over
+a given area. In Figure~\figureref{i165-1}{51} we notice that more perpendicular
+rays extend over a given area than slanting ones.
+We observe the morning and evening rays of the sun,

+
+At the summer

+%% -----File: 166.png---Folio 167-------
+\index{Solstices}%
+nights and consequently more heat is received during the
+day than is radiated off at night. This increasing length
+of day time greatly modifies the climate of regions far to
+the north. Here the long summer days accumulate enough
+heat to mature grain crops and forage plants. It is interesting
+to note that in many northern cities of the United
+States the maximum temperatures are as great as in some
+southern cities.
+
+\Paragraph{How the Atmosphere is Heated.} To understand how
+\index{Atmosphere!how heated}%
+the atmosphere gets its heat we may use as an illustration
+the peculiar heat-receiving and heat-transmitting properties
+of glass. We all know that glass permits heat rays
+from the sun to pass readily through it, and that the dark
+rays of heat from the stove or radiator do not readily pass
+through the glass. Were it not for this fact it would be
+no warmer in a room in the sunshine than in the shade,
+and if glass permitted heat to escape from a room as
+readily as it lets the sunshine in we should have to dispense
+with windows in cold weather. Stating this in
+more technical language, transparent glass is diathermanous
+to luminous heat rays but athermanous to dark rays.
+Dry air possesses this same peculiar property and permits
+the luminous rays from the sun to pass readily through to
+the earth, only about one fourth being absorbed as they
+pass through. About three fourths of the heat the atmosphere
+receives is that which is radiated back as dark rays
+from the earth. Being athermanous to these rays the heat
+is retained a considerable length of time before it at length
+escapes into space. It is for this reason that high altitudes
+are cold, the atmosphere being heated from the
+\index{Atmosphere|)}%
+bottom upwards.
+
+\Paragraph{Maximum Heat Follows Summer Solstice.} Because of
+these conditions and of the convecting currents of air, and,
+%% -----File: 167.png---Folio 168-------
+\index{Equinox@Equinox \phantomsection\label{idx:e}\indexglossref{Equinox}}%
+to a very limited extent, of water, the heat is so distributed
+and accumulated that the hottest weather is in the
+month following the summer solstice (July in the northern
+hemisphere, and January in the southern); conversely, the
+coldest month is the one following the winter solstice.
+This seasonal variation is precisely parallel to the diurnal
+change. At noon the sun is highest in the sky and pours
+in heat most rapidly, but the point of maximum heat is
+not usually reached until the middle of the afternoon, when
+the accumulated heat in the atmosphere begins gradually
+to disappear.
+
+\Paragraph{Astronomical and Climatic Seasons.} Astronomically
+\index{Seasons}%
+there are four seasons each year: spring, from the vernal
+equinox to the summer solstice; summer, from the summer
+solstice to the autumnal equinox; autumn, from the
+autumnal equinox to the winter solstice; winter, from the
+winter solstice to the spring equinox. As treated in physical
+geography, seasons vary greatly in number and
+length with differing conditions of topography and position
+in relation to winds, mountains, and bodies of water.
+In most parts of continental United States and Europe
+\index{Europe}%
+\index{United States}%
+there are four fairly marked seasons: March, April, and
+May are called spring months; June, July, and August,
+summer months; September, October, and November,
+autumn months; and December, January, and February,
+winter months. In the southern states and in western
+Europe the seasons just named begin earlier. In California
+\index{California}%
+and in most tropical regions, there are two seasons,
+one wet and one dry. In northern South America there
+\index{South America}%

+that the northern hemisphere has longer summers and
+shorter winters than the southern hemisphere. Since the

+earth as a whole then receives more heat than in the northern

+\index{Tides|(}%
+
+\Paragraph{Tides and the Moon.} The regular rise and fall of the
+level of the sea and the accompanying inflows and outflows
+of streams, bays, and channels, are called tides. Since
+very ancient times this action of the water has been associated
+with the moon because of the regular interval
+elapsing between a tide and the passage of the moon over
+the meridian of the place, and a somewhat uniform increase
+in the height of the tide when the moon in its orbit around
+the earth is nearest the sun or is farthest from it. This
+unquestioned lunar influence on the ocean has doubtless
+been responsible as the basis for thousands of unwarranted
+associations of cause and effect of weather, vegetable
+growth, and even human temperament and disease with
+phases of the moon or planetary or astral conditions.
+
+\Paragraph{Other Periodic Ebbs and Flows.} Since there are other
+periodical ebbs and flows due to various causes, it may be
+well to remember that the term tide properly applies only
+to the periodic rise and fall of water due to unbalanced
+forces in the attraction of the sun and moon. Other conditions
+which give rise to more or less periodical ebbs and
+flows of the oceans, seas, and great lakes are:
+
+\textit{a.} Variation in atmospheric pressure; low barometer
+\index{Barometer}%
+gives an uplift to water and high barometer a depression.
+
+\textit{b.} Variability in evaporation, rainfall and melting snows
+produces changes in level of adjacent estuaries.
+
+\textit{c.} Variability in wind direction, especially strong and
+continuous seasonal winds like monsoons, lowers the

+level on the leeward of coasts and piles it up on the windward
+side.
+
+\textit{d.} Earthquakes sometimes cause huge waves.
+
+A few preliminary facts to bear in mind when considering
+the causes of tides:
+
+\Section{The Moon}
+
+\Paragraph{Sidereal Month.} The moon revolves around the earth
+in the same direction that the earth revolves about the
+sun, from west to east. If the moon is observed near a
+given star on one night, twenty-four hours later it will be
+found, on the average, about $13.2°$~to the eastward. To
+reach the same star a second time it will require as many
+days as that distance is contained times in~$360°$ or about
+$27.3$~days. This is the sidereal month, the time required
+for one complete revolution of the moon.
+
+\Paragraph{Synodic Month.} Suppose the moon is near the sun at a
+given time, that is, in the same part of the celestial sphere.
+During the twenty-fours hours following, the moon will
+creep eastward~$13.2°$ and the sun~$1°$. The moon thus
+gains on the sun each day about~$12.2°$, and to get in conjunction
+with it a second time it will take as many days
+as $12.2°$~is contained in~$360°$ or about $29.5$~days. This is
+called a synodic (from a Greek word meaning ``meeting'')
+month, the time from conjunction with the sun---new
+moon---until the next conjunction or new moon. The
+term is also applied to the time from opposition or full
+\index{Opposition}%
+moon until the next opposition or full moon. If the
+phases of the moon are not clearly understood it would
+be well to follow the \hyperref[page:9]{suggestions} on this subject in the
+first chapter.
+
+\Paragraph{Moon's Orbit.} The moon's orbit is an ellipse, its
+%% -----File: 177.png---Folio 178-------
+\index{Apogee@Apogee \indexglossref{Apogee}}%
+\index{Orbit, of earth!of moon}%
+nearest point to the earth is called perigee (from \textit{peri},
+\index{Perigee}%
+around or near; and \textit{ge}, the earth) and is about $221,617$
+miles. Its most distant point is called apogee (from \textit{apo},
+from; and \textit{ge}, earth) and is about $252,972$ miles. The
+average distance of the moon from the earth is $238,840$
+miles. The moon's orbit is inclined to the ecliptic $5°~8'$
+and thus may be that distance farther north or south than
+the sun ever gets.
+
+The new moon is said to be in \emph{conjunction} with the sun,
+\index{Conjunction}%
+both being on the same side of the earth. If both are
+then in the plane of the ecliptic an eclipse of the sun must
+\index{Eclipse}%
+take place. The moon being so small, relatively (diameter
+$2,163$~miles), its shadow on the earth is small and
+thus the eclipse is visible along a relatively narrow path.
+
+The full moon is said to be in \emph{opposition} to the sun,
+\index{Opposition}%
+it being on the opposite side of the earth. If, when in
+opposition, the moon is in the plane of the ecliptic it will
+be eclipsed by the shadow of the earth. When the moon
+is in conjunction or in opposition it is said to be in \emph{syzygy}.
+\index{Syzygy}%
+
+\Section{Gravitation}
+\index{Gravitation}%
+
+\Paragraph{Laws Restated.} This force was discussed in the \hyperref[page:16]{first
+chapter} where the two laws of gravitation were explained
+and illustrated. The term gravity is applied to the force
+of gravitation exerted by the earth (see Appendix, p.~\pageref{sec:gravity}).
+Since the explanation of tides is simply the application of
+the laws of gravitation to the earth, sun, and moon, we
+may repeat the two laws:
+
+First law: The force of gravitation varies directly as
+the mass of the object.
+
+Second law: The force of gravitation varies inversely
+as the square of the distance of the object.
+%% -----File: 178.png---Folio 179-------
+
+\Paragraph{\nbstretchyspace Sun's Attraction Greater, but Moon's Tide-Produc\-ing
+Influence Greater.} There is a widely current notion that
+since the moon causes greater tides than the sun, in the
+ratio of $5$~to~$2$, the moon must have greater attractive
+influence for the earth than the sun has. Now this cannot
+be true, else the earth would swing around the moon as
+certainly as it does around the sun. Applying the laws of
+gravitation to the problem, we see that the sun's attraction
+\index{Gravitation}%
+for the earth is approximately $176$~times that of the
+moon.\footnote
+ {For the method of demonstration, see p.~\pageref{page:19}. The following data
+ are necessary: Earth's mass,~$1$; sun's mass, $330,000$; moon's mass,~$\frac{1}{81}$;
+ distance of earth to sun, $93,000,000$ miles; distance of earth to moon,
+ $239,000$ miles.}
+
+The reasoning which often leads to the erroneous conclusion
+just referred to, is probably something like this:
+
+\SubparagraphNoSpace{Major premise:} Lunar and solar attraction causes tides.
+
+\SubparagraphNoSpace{Minor premise:} Lunar tides are higher than solar tides.
+
+\SubparagraphNoSpace{Conclusion:} Lunar attraction is greater than solar
+attraction.
+
+We have just seen that the conclusion is in error. One
+or both of the premises must be in error also. A study
+of the causes of tides will set this matter right.
+
+\Section{Causes of Tides\protect\footnotemark}
+\footnotetext{A mathematical treatment will be found in the \hyperref[page:290]{Appendix}.}
+
+It is sometimes erroneously stated that wind is caused
+by heat. It would be more nearly correct to say that
+wind is caused by the unequal heating of the atmosphere.
+Similarly, it is not the attraction of the sun and moon
+for the earth that causes tides, it is the unequal attraction
+for different portions of the earth that gives rise to unbalanced
+forces which produce tides.
+%% -----File: 179.png---Folio 180-------
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i179}{Fig.~58}
+
+Portions of the earth toward the moon or sun are $8,000$
+miles nearer than portions on the side of the earth opposite
+the attracting body, hence the force of gravitation is
+slightly different at those points as compared with other
+points on the earth's surface. It is obvious, then, that at
+$A$~and~$B$ (Fig.~\figureref{i179}{58}) there are two unbalanced forces, that
+is, forces not having counterparts elsewhere to balance
+them. At these two sides, then, tides are produced,
+since the water of the oceans yields to the influence of
+these forces. That this may be made clear, let us examine
+these tides separately.
+
+\Paragraph{The Tide on the Side of the Earth Toward the Moon.} If $A$
+is $239,000$ miles from the moon, $B$~is $247,000$ miles away
+from it, the diameter of the earth being~$AB$ (Fig.~\figureref{i179}{58}).
+Now the attraction of the moon at $A$,~$C$, and~$D$, is away
+from the center of the earth and thus lessens the force of
+gravity at those points, lessening more at~$A$ since $A$~is
+nearer and the moon's attraction is exerted in a line
+%% -----File: 180.png---Folio 181-------
+\index{Establishment, the, of a port}%
+directly opposite to that of gravity. The water, being
+fluid and easily moved, yields to this lightening of its
+weight and tends to ``pile up under the moon.'' We thus
+have a tide on the side of the earth toward the moon.
+
+\Paragraph{Tidal Wave Sweeps Westward.} As the earth turns
+on its axis it brings successive portions of the earth toward
+the moon and this wave sweeps around the globe as nearly
+as possible under the moon. The tide is retarded somewhat
+by shallow water and the configuration of the coast
+and is not found at a given place when the moon is at
+meridian height but lags somewhat behind. The time
+between the passage of the moon and high tide is called
+the \emph{establishment of the port}. This time varies greatly at
+different places and varies somewhat at different times of
+the year for the same place.
+
+\Paragraph{Solar Tides Compared with Lunar Tides.} Solar tides
+are produced on the side of the earth toward the sun for
+exactly the same reason, but because the sun is so far
+away its attraction is more uniform upon different parts
+of the earth. If $A$~is $93,000,000$ miles from the sun, $B$~is
+$93,008,000$ miles from the sun. The ratio of the squares of
+these two numbers is much nearer unity than the ratio
+of the numbers representing the squares of the distances
+of $A$~and~$B$ from the moon. If the sun were as near as
+the moon, the attraction for~$A$ would be greater by an
+enormous amount as compared with its attraction for~$B$.
+Imagine a ball made of dough with lines connected to
+every particle. If we pull these lines uniformly the ball
+will not be pulled out of shape, however hard we pull. If,
+however, we pull some lines harder than others, although
+we pull gently, will not the ball be pulled out of shape?
+Now the pull of the sun, while greater than that of the
+moon, is exerted quite evenly throughout the earth and
+%% -----File: 181.png---Folio 182-------
+\index{Great Britain}%
+has but a slight tide-producing power. The attraction of
+the moon, while less than that of the sun, is exerted less
+evenly than that of the sun and hence produces greater
+tides.
+
+It has been demonstrated that the tide-producing force
+of a body varies inversely as the cube of its distance and
+directly as its mass. Applying this to the moon and sun
+we get:
+\begin{flalign*}
+ &&\text{Let } T &= \text{sun's tide-producing power}, \\
+\text{and}&& t &= \text{moon's tide-producing power}.&\phantom{\text{and}}
+\end{flalign*}
+
+The sun's mass is $26,500,000$ times the moon's mass,
+\[
+\therefore T : t \dblcolon 26,500,000 : 1.
+\]
+
+But the sun's distance from the earth is $390$~times the
+moon's distance,
+\[
+\therefore T : t \dblcolon \frac{1}{390^3} : 1.
+\]
+
+Combining the two proportions, we get,
+\[
+T : t \dblcolon 2 : 5.
+\]
+
+It has been shown that, owing to the very nearly equal
+attraction of the sun for different parts of the earth, a
+body's weight is decreased when the sun is overhead, as
+compared with the weight six hours from then, by only
+$\dfrac{1}{20,000,000}$; that is, an object weighing a ton varies in
+weight $\frac{3}{4}$~of a grain from sunrise to noon. In case of the
+moon this difference is about $2\frac{1}{2}$~times as great, or nearly
+$2$~grains.
+%% -----File: 182.png---Folio 183-------
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}|(}%
+
+\Paragraph{Tides on the Moon.} It may be of interest to note that
+the effect of the earth's attraction on different sides of the
+moon must be twenty times as great as this, so it is
+thought that when the moon was warmer and had oceans\footnote
+ {The presence of oceans or an atmosphere is not essential to the
+ theory, indeed, is not usually taken into account. It seems most certain
+ that the earth is not perfectly rigid, and the theory assumes that
+ the planets and the moon have sufficient viscosity to produce body
+ tides.}
+the tremendous tidal waves swinging around in the opposite
+direction to its rotation caused a gradual retardation
+of its rotation until, as ages passed, it came to keep the
+same face toward the earth. The planets nearest the sun,
+Mercury and Venus, probably keep the same side toward
+\index{Mercury}%
+\index{Venus}%
+the sun for a similar reason. Applying the same reasoning
+to the earth, it is believed that the period of rotation must
+be gradually shortening, though the rate seems to be
+entirely inappreciable.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i183}{Fig.~59}
+
+\nblabel{page:183}\Paragraph{The Tide on the Side of the Earth Opposite the Moon.} A
+planet revolving around the sun, or a moon about a planet,
+takes a rate which varies in a definite mathematical ratio
+to its distance (see p.~\pageref{page:285}). The sun pulls the earth toward
+itself about one ninth of an inch every second. If
+the earth were nearer, its revolutionary motion would be
+faster. In case of planets having several satellites it is
+observed that the nearer ones revolve about the planet
+faster than the outer ones (see p.~\pageref{page:255}). Now if the
+earth were divided into three separate portions, as in
+Figure~\figureref{i183}{59}, the ocean nearest the sun, the earth proper,
+and the ocean opposite the sun would have three separate
+motions somewhat as the dotted lines show. Ocean~$A$
+would revolve faster than earth~$C$ or ocean~$B$. If these
+three portions were connected by weak bands their stretching
+apart would cause them to separate entirely. The
+%% -----File: 183.png---Folio 184-------
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+tide-producing power at~$B$ is this tendency it has to fall
+away, or more strictly speaking, to fall toward the sun \emph{less
+rapidly than the rest of the earth}.
+
+\Paragraph{Moon and Earth Revolve About a Common Center of
+Gravity.}\nblabel{page:184} What has been said of the earth's annual revolution
+around the sun applies equally to the earth's
+monthly swing around the center of gravity common to
+the earth and the moon. We commonly say the earth
+revolves about the sun and the moon revolves about the
+earth. Now the earth attracts the sun, in its measure,
+just as truly as the sun attracts the earth; and the moon
+attracts the earth, in the ratio of its mass, as the earth
+attracts the moon. Strictly speaking, the earth and sun
+revolve around their common center of gravity and the
+moon and earth revolve around their center of gravity.
+%% -----File: 184.png---Folio 185-------
+\index{North America}%
+\index{Tidal wave, bore, etc.}%
+It is as if the earth were connected with the moon by
+a rigid bar of steel (that had no weight) and the two,
+thus firmly bound at the ends of this rod $239,000$~miles
+long, were set spinning. If both were of the same weight,
+they would revolve about a point equidistant from each.
+The weight of the moon being somewhat less than $\frac{1}{81}$ that
+of the earth, this center of gravity, or point of balance,
+is only about $1,000$~miles from the earth's center.
+
+\Paragraph{Spring Tides.} When the sun and moon are in conjunction,
+\index{Conjunction}%
+\index{Spring tides}%
+both on the same side of the earth, the unequal
+attraction of both for the side toward them produces an
+unusually high tide there, and the increased centrifugal
+force at the side opposite them also produces an unusual
+high tide there. Both solar tides and both lunar tides
+are also combined when the sun and moon are in opposition.
+\index{Opposition}%
+Since the sun and moon are in syzygy (opposition
+\index{Syzygy}%
+or conjunction) twice a month, high tides, called spring
+tides, occur at every new moon and at every full moon.
+If the moon should be in perigee, nearest the earth, at the
+same time it was new or full moon, spring tides would be
+unusually high.
+
+\Paragraph{Neap Tides.} When the moon is at first or last quarter---moon,
+\index{Neap tides}%
+earth, and sun forming a right angle---the solar
+tides occur in the trough of the lunar tides and they are
+not as low as usual, and lunar tides occurring in the trough
+of the solar tides are not so high as usual.
+

+
+\Paragraph{Course of the Tidal Wave.} While the tidal wave is generated
+at any point under or opposite the sun or moon, it
+is out in the southern Pacific Ocean that the absence of
+\index{Pacific Ocean}%
+shallow water and land areas offers least obstruction to its
+movement. Here a general lifting of the ocean occurs,
+and as the earth rotates the lifting progresses under or
+opposite the moon or sun from east to west. Thus a huge

+\index{Atlantic Ocean}%
+\index{Co-tidal lines}%
+wave with crest extending north and south starts twice a
+day off the western coast of South America. The general
+\index{South America}%
+position of this crest is shown on the co-tidal map, one line %[**TN: hyphen added for consistency]
+for every hour's difference in time. The tidal wave is
+retarded along its northern extremity, and as it sweeps
+along the coast of northern South America and North
+America, the wave assumes a northwesterly direction and
+sweeps down the coast of Asia at the rate of about $850$~miles
+\index{Asia}%
+per hour. The southern portion passes across the
+Indian Ocean, being retarded in the north so that the
+\index{Indian Ocean}%
+southern portion is south of Africa when the northern portion
+\index{Africa}%
+has just reached southern India. The time it has
+\index{India}%
+taken the crest to pass from South America to south Africa
+is about $30$~hours. Being retarded by the African coast,
+the northern portion of the wave assumes an almost northerly
+direction, sweeping up the Atlantic at the rate of about
+$700$~miles an hour. It moves so much faster northward
+in the central Atlantic than along the coasts that the crest
+%% -----File: 186.png---Folio 187-------
+\index{Bores, tidal}%
+bends rapidly northward in the center and strikes all points
+of the coast of the United States within two or three hours
+\index{United States}%
+of the same time. To reach France the wave must swing
+\index{France}%
+around Scotland and then southward across the North Sea,
+\index{North Sea}%
+\index{Scotland}%
+reaching the mouth of the Seine about $60$~hours after
+starting from South America. A new wave being formed
+\index{South America}%
+about every $12$~hours, there are thus several of these tidal
+waves following one another across the oceans, each
+slightly different from the others.
+
+While the term ``wave'' is correctly applied to this tidal
+movement it is very liable to leave a wrong impression
+upon the minds of those who have never seen the sea.
+When thinking of this tidal wave sweeping across the
+ocean at the rate of several hundred miles per hour, we
+should also bear in mind its height and length (by height
+is meant the vertical distance from the trough to the crest,
+and by length the distance from crest to crest). Out in
+midocean the height is only a foot or two and the length
+is hundreds of miles. Since the wave requires about three
+hours to pass from trough to crest, it is evident that a ship
+at sea is lifted up a foot or so during six hours and then
+as slowly lowered again, a motion not easily detected. On
+the shore the height is greater and the wave-length shorter,
+for about six hours the water gradually rises and then for
+about six hours it ebbs away again. Breakers, bores, and
+unusual tide phenomena are discussed on p.~\pageref{page:189}.
+
+\Paragraph{Time Between Successive Tides.} The time elapsing
+from the passage of the moon across a meridian until it
+\index{Meridian}%
+crosses the same meridian again is $24$~hours $51$~min.\footnote
+ {More precisely, $24$~h.~$50$~m.~$51$~s. This is
+ the mean lunar day, or interval between successive passages of the moon over a given meridian.
+ The apparent lunar day varies in length from $24$~h.~$38$~m.\ to $25$~h.~$5$~m.\
+ for causes somewhat similar to those producing a variation in the length
+ of the apparent solar day.}
+This,

+\index{Month@Month \indexglossref{Month}!sidereal}%
+in contradistinction to the solar and sidereal day, may
+be termed a lunar day. It takes the moon $27.3$~solar days
+to revolve around the earth, a sidereal month. In one
+day it journeys $\frac{10}{273}$~of a day or $51$~minutes. So if the
+moon was on a given meridian at 10~\AM, on one day,
+\index{Meridian}%
+by 10~\AM{} the next day the moon would have moved
+$12.2°$ eastward, and to direct the same meridian a second
+time toward the moon it takes on the average $51$~minutes
+longer than $24$~hours, the actual time varying from $38$~m.\ to
+$1$~h.~$6$~m.\ for various reasons. The tides of one day, then,
+are later than the tides of the preceding day by an average
+interval of $51$~minutes.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i187}{Fig.~61. Low tide}
+
+In studying the movement of the tidal wave, we observed
+that it is retarded by shallow water. The spring tides
+\index{Spring tides}%
+being higher and more powerful move faster than the
+neap tides, the interval on successive days averaging only
+\index{Neap tides}%
+$38$~minutes. Neap tides move slower, averaging somewhat
+over an hour later from day to day. The establishment
+of a port, as previously explained, is the average time

+
+\Paragraph{Height of Tides.}\nblabel{page:189} The height of the tide varies greatly
+in different places, being scarcely discernible out in midocean,
+averaging only $1\frac{1}{2}$~feet in the somewhat sheltered
+Gulf of Mexico, but averaging $37$~feet in the Bay of Fundy.
+\index{Gulf of Mexico}%
+\index{Mexico!Gulf of}%
+The shape and situation of some bays and mouths of
+rivers is such that as the tidal wave enters, the front part
+of the wave becomes so steep that huge breakers form
+and roll up the bay or river with great speed. These
+bores, as they are called, occur in the Bay of Fundy, in
+the Hoogly estuary of the Ganges, in that of the Dordogne,
+the Severn, the Elbe, the Weser, the Yangtze, the
+Amazon, etc.
+
+\Paragraph{Bore of the Amazon.} A description of the bore of the

+minutes. The noise of this terrible flood is heard five or
+six miles, and increases as it approaches. Presently you
+see a liquid promontory, $12$~or $15$~feet high, followed by
+another, and another, and sometimes by a fourth. These

+\First{To} represent the curved surface of the earth, or any
+portion of it, on the plane surface of a map, involves
+serious mathematical difficulties. Indeed, it is impossible
+to do so with perfect accuracy.
+The term projection,
+as applied to the
+representation on a plane
+of points corresponding
+to points on a globe, is
+not always used in
+geography in its strictly
+mathematical sense, but
+denotes any representation
+on a plane of parallels

+and meridians of the
+earth.

+This is, perhaps, the
+most readily understood
+projection, and is one of
+the oldest known, having
+been used by the ancient
+Greeks for celestial representation. The globe truly represents
+the relative positions of points on the earth's surface.
+%% -----File: 190.png---Folio 191-------
+It might seem that a photograph of a globe would
+correctly represent
+on a flat surface
+the curved surface
+of the earth. A
+glance at Figure~\figureref{i189}{62},
+from a photograph
+of a globe, shows
+the parallels near
+the equator to be
+farther apart than
+those near the
+poles. This is not
+the way they are
+on the globe. The
+orthographic projection
+is the representation of the globe as a photograph
+would show it from a great distance.
+
+\includegraphicsright{i190-1}{Fig.~63. Equatorial orthographic projection}
+
+\Paragraph{Parallels and Meridians Farther Apart in Center of Map.}
+Viewing a globe from a distance, we observe that parallels
+%% -----File: 191.png---Folio 192-------
+and meridians appear somewhat as represented in
+Figure~\figureref{i190-1}{63}, being farther apart toward the center and increasingly
+nearer toward the outer portion. Now it is
+obvious from Figure~\figureref{i190-2}{64} that the farther the eye is placed
+from the globe, the less will be the distortion, although a
+removal to an infinite distance will not obviate all distortion.
+Thus the eye at~$x$ sees lines to $E$~and~$F$ much
+nearer together than lines to $A$~and~$B$, but the eye at the
+greater distance sees less difference.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i190-2}{Fig.~64}
+
+\fussy
+When the rays are perpendicular to the axis, as in Figure~\figureref{i191}{65},
+the parallels at $A$,~$B$, $C$, $D$, and~$E$ will be seen on the
+tangent plane~$XY$
+at $A'$,~$B'$, $C'$, $D'$,
+and~$E'$. While the
+distance from~$A$ to~$B$
+on the globe
+is practically the
+same as the distance
+from~$D$ to~$E$,
+to the distant eye
+$A'$~and~$B'$ will
+appear much nearer
+together than $D'$~and~$E'$.
+Since $A$
+(or~$A'$) represents a pole and $E$ (or~$E'$) the equator, line~$XY$
+is equivalent to a central meridian and points $A'$,~$B'$,
+etc., are where the parallels cross it.
+
+\Paragraph{How to Lay off an Equatorial Orthographic Projection.}
+If parallels and meridians are desired for every $15°$, divide
+the circle into twenty-four equal parts; any desired number
+of parallels and meridians, of course, may be drawn. Now
+connect opposite points with straight lines for parallels
+(as in Fig.~\figureref{i191}{65}). The reason why parallels are straight lines
+%% -----File: 192.png---Folio 193-------
+\index{Ellipse@Ellipse \indexglossref{Ellipse}}%
+\index{Pole, celestial!terrestrial|(}%
+in the equatorial orthographic projection is apparent if
+one remembers that if the eye is in the plane of the equator
+and is at an infinite distance, the parallels will lie in practically
+the same plane as the eye.
+
+\includegraphicsright{i191}{Fig.~65}
+
+\sloppy
+To lay off the meridians, mark on the equator points
+exactly as on the central meridian where parallels intersect
+it. The meridians may now be made as arcs of circles
+passing through the poles and these points. With one
+foot of the compasses in the equator, or equator extended,
+place the other so that
+it will pass through the
+poles and one of these
+points. After a little
+trial it will be easy to
+lay off each of the meridians
+in this way.
+
+\fussy
+\includegraphicsright[14]{i192}{Fig.~66. Western hemisphere, in equatorial orthographic projection}
+
+To be strictly correct
+the meridians should not
+be arcs of circles as just
+suggested but should be
+semi-ellipses with the
+central meridian as
+major axis as shown in
+Figure~\figureref{i192}{66}. While somewhat more difficult, the student
+should learn how thus to lay them off. To construct the
+ellipse, one must first locate the foci. This is done by taking
+half the major axis (central meridian) as radius and with
+the point on the equator through which the meridian is
+to be constructed as center, describe an arc cutting the
+center meridian on each side of the equator. These points
+of intersection on the central meridian are the foci of the
+ellipse, one half of which is a meridian. By placing a pin
+at each of the foci and also at the point in the equator
+%% -----File: 193.png---Folio 194-------
+where the meridian must cross and tying a string as a loop
+around these three pins, then withdrawing the one at the
+equator, the ellipse may be made as described in the \hyperref[page:22]{first chapter}.
+
+\includegraphicsright{i193}{Fig.~67. Polar orthographic projection}
+
+\Paragraph{How to Lay off a Polar Orthographic Projection.} This
+is laid off more easily than the former projection. Here
+the eye is conceived to be directly above a pole and the
+equator is the boundary
+of the hemisphere seen.
+It is apparent that
+from this position the
+equator and parallels
+will appear as circles
+and, since the planes
+of the meridians pass
+through the eye, each
+meridian must appear
+as a straight line.
+
+Lay off for the equator
+a circle the same
+size as the preceding
+one (Fig.~\figureref{i191}{65}), subdividing
+it into twenty-four parts, if meridians are desired
+for every~$15°$. Connect these points with the center,
+which represents the pole. On any diameter mark off
+distances as on the center meridian of the equatorial
+orthographic projection (Fig.~\figureref{i191}{65}). Through these points
+draw circles to represent parallels. You will then have
+the complete projection as in Figure~\figureref{i193}{67}.
+
+Projections may be made with any point on the globe as
+center, though the limits of this book will not permit the
+rather difficult explanation as to how it is done for latitudes
+other than $0°$ or~$90°$. With the parallels and
+%% -----File: 194.png---Folio 195-------
+meridians projected, the map may be drawn. The student
+should remember that all maps which make any claim to
+accuracy or correctness are made by locating points of
+an area to be represented according to their latitudes and
+longitudes; that is, in reference to parallels and meridians.
+It will be observed that the orthographic system of projection
+crowds together areas toward the outside of the map
+and the scale of miles suitable for the central portion will
+\index{Scale of miles}%
+not be correct for the outer portions. For this reason a

+When we look up at the sky we see what appears to be

+are located. We seem to be at the center of this celestial
+sphere, and were we to imagine stars and other heavenly
+bodies to be projected beyond the dome to an imaginary
+plane we should have a gnomonic projection. Because
+of its obvious convenience in thus showing the position
+%% -----File: 201.png---Folio 202-------
+of celestial bodies, this projection is a very old one, having
+often been used by the ancients for celestial maps.
+
+Since the eye is at the center for mapping the celestial
+sphere, it is conceived to be at the center of the earth in
+projecting parallels and meridians of the earth. As will
+be seen from Figure~\figureref{i201}{78},
+the distortion is very
+great away from the
+center of the map and
+an entire hemisphere
+cannot be shown.
+
+All great circles on
+this projection are represented
+as straight lines.
+This will be apparent if
+one imagines himself at
+the center of a transparent
+globe having parallels
+and meridians
+traced upon it. Since
+the plane of every great
+circle passes through the
+center of the globe, the
+eye at that point will
+see every portion of a

+\Paragraph{Great Circle Sailing.} It would seem at first thought
+\index{Great circle sailing}%
+that a ship sailing to a
+point due eastward,
+say from New York to
+Oporto, would follow
+the course of a parallel,
+that is, would sail
+due eastward. This,
+however, would not be
+its shortest course.
+The solution of the
+following little catch
+problem in mathematical
+geography will
+make clear the reason
+for this. ``A man was forty rods due east of a bear,
+his gun would carry only thirty rods, yet with no change
+%% -----File: 203.png---Folio 204-------
+of position he shot and killed the bear. Where on earth
+were they?'' Solution: This could occur only near the
+pole where parallels are very small circles. The bear was
+westward from the man and westward is along the course
+of a parallel. The bear was thus distant forty rods in a
+curved line from the man but the bullet flew in a straight
+line (see Fig.~\figureref{i202-2}{80}).
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i202-2}{Fig.~80}
+
+The shortest distance between two points on the earth
+is along the arc of a great circle. A great circle passing
+through New York and Oporto passes a little to the north
+\index{Oporto, Portugal}%
+\index{New York}%
+of the parallel on which both cities are located. Thus it
+is that the course of vessels plying between the United
+States and Europe curves, somewhat to the northward of
+parallels. This following of a great circle by navigators
+is called great circle sailing. The equator is a great circle
+\index{Great circle sailing}%
+and parallels near it are almost of the same length. In
+sailing within the tropics, therefore, there is little advantage
+in departing from the course of a parallel. Besides
+this, the trade winds and doldrums control the choice of
+routes in that region and the Mercator projection is always
+\index{Mercator projection}%
+used in sailing there. In higher latitudes the gnomonic
+projection is commonly used.

+
+The homolographic projection was invented early in the
+nineteenth century. At the close of the century Mr.~Alphons
+\index{Van der Grinten, Alphons}%
+Van~der Grinten of Chicago invented another projection
+\index{Chicago, Ill.}%
+by which the entire surface of the earth may be
+represented. This ingenious system reduces greatly the
+angular distortion incident to the homolographic projection
+and for the inhabitable portions of the globe there is
+very little exaggeration of areas.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i207}{Fig.~83. World in Van~der Grinten projection}
+
+In the Van der Grinten projection the outer boundary
+is a meridian circle, the central meridian and equator are
+straight lines, and other parallels and meridians are arcs
+of circles. The area of the circle is equal to the surface
+of a globe of one half the diameter of this circle. The
+equator is divided into~$360°$, but the meridians are, of
+course, divided into~$180°$.

+around the
+globe, touching the
+equator. The eye
+is conceived to be
+at the center of the
+globe, projecting the
+parallels and meridians
+upon the tangent

+from the equator.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i208-2}{Fig.~85}
+
+\sloppy
+An examination of Figure~\figureref{i209}{86} will show the necessity
+for the increasing distances of parallels in higher latitudes.
+The eye at the center~($E$) sees $A$~at~$A'$, $B$~at $B'$,~etc. Beyond
+$45°$~from the equator the distance between parallels
+becomes very great. $A'B'$ represents the same distance
+($15°$~of latitude) as~$G'H'$, but is over twice as long on the
+map. At~$A'$ ($60°$~north
+latitude) the
+meridians of the
+globe are only half
+as far apart as they
+are at the equator,
+but they are represented
+on the map
+as though they were
+just as far apart
+there as at the equator.
+Because of the
+rapidly increasing
+distances of parallels,
+to represent
+higher latitude than~$60°$
+would require a
+very large sheet, so
+the projection is usually
+modified for a map of the earth as a whole, sometimes
+arbitrarily.
+
+\fussy
+$G'H'$~is the distance from the equator to the first parallel,
+and since a degree of latitude is about equal to a
+degree of longitude there, this distance may be taken
+between meridians.

+\Paragraph{Stereographic Cylindrical Projection.} For reasons just

+\includegraphicsleft{i209}{Fig.~86} %[**TN: mid-paragraph figure placement]
+reduction to show the poles at all or any high latitudes
+without great distortion. Such a reduction is well shown
+in the stereographic projection. In this the eye is conceived
+\index{Stereographic projection}%
+to be on the equator, projecting each meridian from
+the view point of the meridian opposite to it. Figure~\figureref{i210}{87}

+In the orthographic,

+meridian and when a meridian
+\includegraphicsright{i210}{Fig.~87} %[**TN: mid-paragraph figure placement]
+is represented as a curved
+line, north and south are along that curved line. Thus the
+two arrows shown at the top of Figure~\figureref{i204}{81}, are pointing in
+almost exactly opposite directions and yet each is pointing

+due north. The arrows at the bottom point opposite
+each other, yet both point due south. The arrows pointing
+to the right point the same way, yet one points north
+and the other points south. A line pointing toward the
+\index{North, line!on map}%
+\index{South, on map}%
+top of a map may or may not point north. Similarly,
+parallels lie in a due east-west direction and to the right
+on a map may or may not be to the east.
+\index{Pole, celestial!terrestrial|)}%
+
+It should be obvious by this time that the map projections
+studied thus far represent directions in a most unsatisfactory
+manner, however well they may represent areas.
+Now to the sailor the principal value of a chart is to show
+directions to steer his course by and if the direction is represented
+by a curved line it is a slow and difficult process
+for him to determine his course. We have seen that the
+gnomonic projection employs straight lines to represent
+arcs of great circles, and, consequently, this projection is
+used in great circle sailing. The Mercator projection shows
+\index{Great circle sailing}%
+all parallels and meridians as straight lines at proportional
+distances, hence directions as straight lines, and is another,
+and the only other, kind of map used by sailors in plotting
+their courses.

+\includegraphicsright{i214}{Fig.~89}

+\Subparagraph{Maps in Ancient Times.} Before the middle of the fifteenth
+century, sailors did not cover very great portions
+of the earth's surface in continuous journeys out of sight
+of land where they had to be guided almost wholly by the
+stars. Mathematical accuracy in maps was not of very
+great importance in navigation until long journeys had to
+be made with no opportunity for verification of calculations.
+Various roughly accurate map projections were
+made. The map sent to Columbus about the year 1474
+\index{Columbus, Christopher}%
+by the Italian astronomer Toscanelli, with which he suggested
+\index{Toscanelli}%
+sailing directions across the ``Sea of Darkness,'' is
+an interesting illustration of a common type of his day.

+
+The long journeys of the Portuguese along the coast of
+Africa and around to Asia and the many voyages across
+\index{Africa}%
+\index{Asia}%
+the Atlantic early in the sixteenth century, made accurate
+map projection necessary. About the middle of that century,
+Emperor Charles~V of Spain employed a Flemish
+\index{Charles V., Emperor of Spain}%
+\index{Spain}%
+mathematician named Gerhard Kramer to make maps for
+\index{Kramer, Gerhard}%
+the use of his sailors. The word Kramer means, in German,
+``retail merchant,'' and this translated into Latin,
+then the universal language of science, becomes Mercator,
+and his invention of a very valuable and now widely used
+map projection acquired his Latinized name.
+
+\Subparagraph{Plan of Mercator Chart.} The Mercator projection is
+made on the same plan as the other cylindrical projections,
+excepting as to the distances between parallels.
+The meridians are represented as parallel lines, whereas
+on the globe they converge. There is thus a distortion of
+longitudes, greater and greater, away from the equator.
+Now the Mercator projection makes the parallels farther
+apart away from the equator, exactly proportional to the
+meridional error. Thus at latitude~$60°$ the meridians on
+the earth are almost exactly half as far apart as at the
+equator, but being equidistant on the map, they are represented
+as twice as far apart as they should be. The
+parallels in that portion of the Mercator map are accordingly
+made twice as far apart as they are near the equator.
+Since the distortion in latitude exactly equals the distortion
+in longitude and parallels and meridians are straight
+lines, all directions are represented as straight lines. A
+navigator has simply to draw upon the map a line from
+the point where he is to the point to which he wishes to
+sail in a direct course, measure the angle which this line
+forms with a parallel or meridian, and steer his ship according
+to the bearings thus obtained.
+%% -----File: 214.png---Folio 215-------
+
+\Subparagraph{To Lay off a Mercator Projection.} Figure~\figureref{i214}{89} shows the
+simplest method of laying off this projection. From the
+extremity of each radius drop a line to the nearest radius,
+parallel to the tangent~$A'L$. The lengths of these lines,
+respectively, represent the distances\footnote
+ {Technically speaking, the distance is the tangent of the angle of
+ latitude and any \hyperref[page:312]{table of natural tangents} will answer nearly as well
+ as the \hyperref[page:217]{table of meridional parts}, although the latter is more accurate,
+ being corrected for the oblateness of the meridian.}
+between parallels.
+Thus $N'M$ equals $CP$, $K'N'$ equals $BN$, $A'K'$ equals $AK$.
+The meridians are
+equidistant and are
+the same distance
+apart as the first
+parallel is from the
+equator.
+
+\smallskip
+\includegraphicsmid{i215}{Fig.~90. World in mercator projection}
+
+The table of meridional
+parts on page~\pageref{page:217} gives the
+relative distances of
+parallels from the
+equator. By means
+of this table a more
+exact projection
+may be laid off than
+by the method just suggested. To illustrate: Suppose we
+wish a map about twenty inches wide to include the 70th~parallels.
+We find in the table that $5944.3$~is the distance
+to the equator. Then, since the map is to extend $10$~inches
+on each side of the equator, $\dfrac{10}{5944.3}$~is the scale to be used
+in making the map; that is $1$~inch on the map will be
+represented by $10~\text{inches} ÷ 5944.3$. Suppose we wish to
+%% -----File: 215.png---Folio 216-------
+lay off parallels ten degrees apart. The first parallel to be
+drawn north of the equator has, according to the table,
+$599.1$ for its meridional distance. This multiplied by
+$\dfrac{10}{5944.3}$ equals slightly more than~$1$. Hence the parallel~$10°$
+should be laid off $1$~inch from the equator. The 20th~parallel
+has for its meridional distance $1217.3$. This multiplied
+by the scale $\dfrac{10}{5944.3}$ gives $2.03$~inches from the
+equator. The 30th~parallel has a meridional distance
+$1876.9$, this multiplied by the scale gives $3.15$~inches. In
+like manner the other parallels are laid off. The meridians
+will be $\dfrac{10}{5944.3} × 60$ or $600~\text{inches} ÷ 5944.3$ for every degree,
+or for ten degrees $6000~\text{inches} ÷ 5944.3$, which equals
+$1.01$~inches. This makes the map $36.36$~inches long ($1.01~\text{inches}
+× 36 = 36.36~\text{inches}$).

+\Section{Conic Projection}
+\index{Conic projection|(}%
+
+The portion of a sphere between the
+planes of two parallels which are near
+together is very similar to the zone of a
+cone (see Fig.~\figureref{i217-1}{91}). Hence, if we imagine
+a paper in the form of a cone placed

+meridians projected upon this cone from
+the center of the globe, then this conical
+map unrolled, we can understand
+this system.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i217-1}{Fig.~91}
+
+Along the parallel tangent to the
+cone, points on the map will correspond
+exactly to points upon the globe. Parallels
+which are near the line of tangency will be represented
+very much in the relative
+positions they occupy on the
+globe. In a narrow zone, therefore,
+near the tangent parallel,
+there will be very little distortion
+in latitudes and longitudes
+and an area mapped within the
+zone will be very similar in form
+and area to the form and area
+as it appears upon the globe
+itself. For this reason the conic
+projection, or some modification of it, is almost always
+employed in representing small areas of the earth's surface.

+\Paragraph{Bonne's (Conic) Projection.} This is a modification of

+the conic projection as previously described to prevent
+exaggeration of areas away from the parallel which is conceived

+a straight line and parallels are concentric equidistant
+circles. The distance between parallels is the length
+of the arc of the circle which is used as a basis for the

+Having laid off the central meridian and marked off the
+arcs for parallels, the true distance of the meridian on each
+parallel is laid off and the meridian
+is drawn through these
+points. This gives a gentle
+inward curve for meridians
+toward the outside of the map
+of continents. Instead of following
+Bonne's system with
+strict accuracy, the map maker
+sometimes makes the curve a

+Fig.~\figureref{i220}{97}) and since along and near the tangent parallels
+%% -----File: 221.png---Folio 222-------
+($A$~and~$B$) there is little distortion, this plan is better
+adapted for a map showing greater width north and south
+than is the conic projection.
+
+The map of Europe well illustrates this difference.
+\index{Europe}%
+Europe lies between $35°$~and~$75°$ north latitude. On a
+conic projection the tangent parallel would be~$55°$. Near
+this parallel there would be no exaggeration of areas
+but at the extreme north and south, $20°$~away from this
+parallel, there would be considerable distortion. If, instead,

+\index{Intersecting conic projection}%
+the cone pass through parallels $45°$~and~$65°$ and along

+It should be noticed that the region between the intersections
+of the meridians must be projected back toward
+the center of the sphere and thus be made smaller in the
+map than it appears on the globe. The central parallel
+would be too short in proportion to the rest. Since this
+area of Europe (between $45°$~and~$65°$) is the most important
+portion and should show most details, it would be a
+serious defect, from the practical map maker's point of
+view, to minify it.
+
+\Paragraph{Polyconic Projection.} This differs from the conic projection
+in that it is readjusted at each parallel which is
+drawn, so that each one is tangent to the sphere. This
+makes the circumscribing cone bent at each parallel, a
+series of conic sections. The word polyconic means
+``many cones.'' The map constructed on this projection
+is thus accurate along each parallel, instead of along but
+one as in the conic projection or along two as in the intersecting
+conic projection. For representing small areas
+this is decidedly the most accurate projection known.

+\Section{\smallsize SUMMARY}
+In the conic projection:
+\begin{slist}
+\item[1.] A cone is conceived to be fitted about a portion of the globe,
+tangent to some parallel.
+
+\item[2.] The tangent parallel shows no distortion and portions near it have
+but little. This projection is therefore used extensively for
+mapping small areas.
+
+\begin{ssublist}
+\item[\textit{a.}] In the conic projection on the gnomonic or central plan,
+the eye is conceived to be at the center of the globe,
+parallels are crowded closer together toward the central
+parallel, and distant areas are exaggerated.
+
+The cone may be conceived to intersect the globe at two
+parallels, between which there is a diminution of areas and
+beyond which there is an exaggeration of areas.
+%% -----File: 223.png---Folio 224-------
+
+\item[\textit{b.}] In the Bonne projection parallels are drawn at equidistant
+\index{Bonne's projection}%
+intervals from a common center and meridians are slightly
+curved to prevent distortion in longitudes.
+
+\item[\textit{c.}] In the polyconic projection many short conic sections are
+\index{Polyconic projection|)}%
+conceived to be placed about the globe, one for each parallel
+represented. Parallels are drawn from the apexes of the
+cones.

+\Section{The Scale}
+\index{Scale of miles}%
+
+The area of any map bears some proportion to the actual
+area represented. If the map is so drawn that each mile
+shall be represented by one inch on the map, since one
+mile equals $63,360$ inches, the scale is said to be $1 : 63,360$.
+This is often written fractionally, $\dfrac{1}{63,360}$. A scale of two
+inches to the mile is $1 : 31,680$. These, of course, can be
+used only when small areas are mapped. The following
+scales with their equivalents are most commonly used in
+the United States Geological Survey, the first being the
+\index{United States}%
+scale employed in the valuable geological folios covering
+a large portion of the United States.
+\begin{center}

+Scale $1:62,500$, & $1$~mile $= 1.01376$~inches. \\

+\Section{Some Conclusions}
+
+The following generalizations from the discussion of
+map projections seem appropriate.
+
+1. In all maps north and south lie along meridians and
+\index{North, line!on map}%
+\index{South, on map}%
+east and west along parallels. The top of the map may or
+may not be north; indeed, the cylindrical projection is the
+\index{Cylindrical projection}%
+only one that represents meridians by perpendicular lines.
+\index{Conic projection|)}%
+%% -----File: 224.png---Folio 225-------
+
+2. Maps of the same country on different projections
+may show different shapes and yet each may be correct.
+To make maps based upon some arbitrary system of
+triangles or lines is not scientific and often is not even
+helpful.
+
+3. Owing to necessary distortions in projecting the
+parallels and meridians, a scale of miles can rarely be used
+\index{Parallels|)}%
+with accuracy on a map showing a large area.
+
+4. Straight lines on maps are not always the shortest
+distances between two points. This will be clear if we
+remember that the shortest distance between two points
+on the globe is along the arc of a great circle. Now great
+circles, such as meridians and the equator, are very often
+represented as curved lines on a map, yet along such a
+curved line is the shortest distance between any two places
+in the line on the globe which the map represents.
+
+5. To ascertain the scale of miles per inch used on any
+map, or verify the scale if given, measure the space along
+a meridian for one inch and ascertain as correctly as possible
+\index{Meridian|)}%
+the number of degrees of latitude contained in the inch.
+Multiply this by the number of miles in one degree of
+latitude,~$69$, and you have the number of miles on the
+earth represented by one inch on the map.

+\Paragraph{Allowance for Curvature.} One of the best proofs that
+\index{Allowance for curvature of earth's surface}%
+\index{Curvature of surface of earth, rate of}%
+the earth is a sphere is the fact that in all careful measurements
+over any considerable area, allowance must be made
+for the curvature of the surface. If two lines be drawn
+due northward for one mile in the northern part of the
+United States or in central Europe, say from the 48th

+extremities than they are at the southern ends.
+
+\Paragraph{Origin of Geometry.} One of the greatest of the practical

+the systematic location of lines and points and the measurement
+of surfaces of the earth by something more definite,

+Indeed, geometry is believed to have had its origin in the
+need of the ancient Egyptians for surveying and relocating

+\Paragraph{Locating by Metes and Bounds.} The system of locating
+lands by metes and bounds prevails extensively over the
+world and, naturally enough, was followed in this country
+by the early settlers from Europe. To locate an area by
+landmarks, some point of beginning is established and the
+\index{Landmarks, use of, in surveys|(}%
+boundary lines are described by means of natural objects
+such as streams, trees, well established highways, and
+stakes, piles of stone, etc., are placed for the purpose. The
+directions are usually indicated by reference to the magnetic
+compass and distances as ascertained by surveyors' chains.

+ {Where a meandering river constitutes the boundary of a nation
+ or state, changes in the course of the stream give rise to problems in
+ civil government, as the following incident illustrates. A minister in
+ the southern part of South Dakota was called upon to officiate at a
+\index{South Dakota}%
+ wedding in a home in a bend of the Missouri River. During the high
+\index{Missouri!River}%
+ water of the preceding spring, the river had burst over the narrow
+ neck at the bend and at the time of the wedding it was flowing on
+ both sides of the cut-off so that there was a doubt as to whether the
+ main channel of the stream, the interstate boundary line, was north
+ of them and they were in Nebraska, or south and they were still in
+\index{Nebraska}%
+ South Dakota. To be assured of the legality of the marriage rite,
+ the bridal couple, minister, and witnesses rowed to the north bank,

+\Paragraph{Survey of Northwest Territory.} When, in 1785, practically
+\index{Northwest Territory, survey of|(}%
+all of the territory north and west of the Ohio River
+\index{Ohio!River}%
+had been ceded to the United States by the withdrawal of
+state claims, Congress
+provided for its survey,
+profiting from the
+experiences resulting
+from hastily marked
+boundaries. Thomas
+Hutchins was appointed
+\index{Hutchins, Thomas}%
+Geographer of
+the United States, and
+after the selection of
+thirteen assistants, he
+was instructed to begin
+its survey. Starting in
+1786 from the southwest
+corner of Pennsylvania, he laid off a line due north
+\index{Pennsylvania}%
+to a point on the north bank of the Ohio River. From
+this point he started a line westward.
+According to the
+directions of Congress, every six miles along this east-west
+``geographer's line,'' meridians were to be laid off
+and parallels to it at intervals of six miles, each of the
+six miles square to be divided into thirty-six square
+miles and these divided into ``quarters,'' thus spreading a
+huge ``gridiron'' over the land. The larger squares were
+\index{Congressional township}%
+\index{Township|(}%
+called ``townships,'' an adaptation of the New England
+``town.'' They are commonly called ``Congressional

+\index{Jefferson, Thomas}%
+to have suggested this

+some variations has
+been continued over
+the major portion of
+the United States and
+the western portion of
+Canada. Hutchins and
+\index{Hutchins, Thomas}%
+\index{Canada}%
+his crew laid off the

+only forty-two miles, making seven ranges of townships
+\index{Seven ranges of Ohio}%
+west of the Pennsylvania

+state boundary,
+when they were frightened
+away by the
+Indians. The work
+was continued, however,
+on the same general
+plan one exception
+being the method of
+numbering the sections.
+In these first
+``seven ranges'' the
+sections are numbered
+as in Figure~\figureref{i227}{99}, elsewhere
+in the United States they are numbered as in
+Figure~\figureref{i228-1}{100}, and in western Canada as in Figure~\figureref{i228-2}{101}.

+The law passed by Congress May~20, 1785, provided that,
+``The surveyors~\dots\ shall proceed to divide the said territory
+into townships of six miles square, by lines running
+due north and south, and others crossing these at right
+angles, as near as may be.'' Owing to the convergence of
+\index{Convergence of meridians}%
+\index{Allowance for curvature of earth's surface}%
+the meridians this, of course, was a mathematical impossibility;
+``as near as may be,'' however, has been broadly
+interpreted. According to the provisions of this act and
+the acts of May~18, 1796, May~10, 1800, and Feb.~11, 1805,
+and to rules of commissioners of the general land office, a
+complete system has been evolved, the main features of
+which are as follows:
+
+\Paragraph{Principal Meridians.} These are run due north, south,
+or north and south from some initial point selected
+with great care and located in latitude and longitude by
+astronomical means. Thirty-two or more of these principal
+meridians have been surveyed at irregular intervals
+and of varying lengths. Some of these are known by
+numbers and some by names. The first principal meridian
+\index{Meridian!principal, for surveys|(}%
+\index{Principal meridian|(}%
+is the boundary line between Indiana and Ohio;
+\index{Indiana}%
+\index{Ohio}%
+the second is west of the center of Indiana, extending the
+entire length of the state; the third is in the center of
+Illinois, extending the entire length of the state; the Tallahassee
+\index{Tallahassee, Fla.}%
+\index{Illinois}%
+principal meridian passes directly through that
+city and is only about twenty-three miles long; other
+principal meridians are named Black Hills, New Mexico,

+ Land office, Washington,~D.~C.}

+\index{Northwest Territory, survey of|)}%
+%% -----File: 230.png---Folio 231-------
+To the east, west, or east and west of principal meridians,
+\index{Ranges of townships|(}%
+north and south rows of townships called ranges are laid
+off. Each principal meridian, together with the system of
+townships based upon it, is independent of every other
+principal meridian and where two systems come together
+irregularities are found.
+
+\Paragraph{Base Lines.} Through the initial point selected from
+which to run the principal meridian, an east-west base line
+\index{Base line|(}%
+is run, at right angles to it, and corresponds to a true geographic
+parallel. As in case of the principal meridian,
+this line is laid off with great care since the accuracy of
+these controlling lines determines the accuracy of the
+measurements based upon them.
+
+Tiers of townships are laid off and numbered north and
+\index{Tiers of townships}%
+south of these base lines. In locating a township the word
+tier is usually omitted; township number~4 north, range~2
+west of the Michigan principal meridian, means the township
+\index{Michigan}%
+in tier 4~north of the base line and in the second range
+west of the Michigan principal meridian. This is the
+township in which Lansing, Michigan, is located.
+\index{Lansing, Mich.}%
+
+The fourth principal meridian in western Illinois and
+\index{Illinois}%
+Wisconsin has two base lines, one at its southern extremity
+\index{Wisconsin}%
+extending westward to the Mississippi River and the other
+\index{Mississippi!River}%
+constituting the interstate boundary line between Wisconsin
+and Illinois. The townships of western Illinois are
+numbered from the southern base line, and all of those in
+Wisconsin and northeastern Minnesota are numbered from
+\index{Minnesota}%
+the northern base line. The fourth principal meridian is
+in three sections, being divided by an eastern bend of the
+Mississippi River and by the western portion of Lake
+\index{Lake Superior}%
+Superior.
+
+\includegraphicssideways{i231}{Fig.~102.}
+
+The largest area embraced within one system is that
+based upon the fifth principal meridian. This meridian
+%% -----File: 231.png---Folio 232-------
+%% -----File: 232.png---Folio 233-------
+extends northward from the mouth of the Arkansas River
+\index{Arkansas River}%
+until it again intersects the Mississippi River in northeastern
+Missouri and then again it appears in the big eastern
+bend of the Mississippi River in eastern Iowa. Its
+base line passes a few miles south of Little Rock, Arkansas,
+\index{Little Rock, Ark.}%
+\index{Arkansas@Arkansas (\phonArkansas)}%
+from which fact it is sometimes called the Little Rock
+base line. From this meridian and base line all of Arkansas,
+\index{Meridian!rate for convergence}%
+Missouri, Iowa, North Dakota, and the major portions
+of Minnesota and South Dakota have been surveyed, an
+\index{Minnesota}%
+\index{South Dakota}%
+area considerably larger than that of Germany and Great
+\index{Great Britain}%
+\index{Germany}%
+Britain and Ireland combined. The most northern tier
+\index{Ireland}%
+from this base lies about a mile south of the forty-ninth
+parallel, the boundary line between the United States and
+Canada, and is numbered~163. The southern row of sections
+\index{Canada}%
+of tier~164 with odd lottings lies between tier~163 and
+Canada. Its most northern township is in the extreme
+northern portion of Minnesota, west of the Lake of the
+\index{Lake of the Woods}%
+Woods, and is numbered~168. It thus lies somewhat
+more than a thousand miles north of the base from which
+it was surveyed. There are nineteen tiers south of the
+base line in Arkansas, making the extreme length of this
+area about $1122$~miles. The most eastern range from the
+fifth principal meridian is numbered~17 and its most
+western,~104, making an extent in longitude of $726$~miles.

+
+\includegraphicsleft{i233}{Fig.~103.}
+
+\Paragraph{Standard Parallels.} The eastern and western boundaries
+\index{Standard parallel}%
+of townships are, as nearly as may be, true meridians, and
+when they have been extended northward through several
+\index{Allowance for curvature of earth's surface}%
+\index{Convergence of meridians}%
+\index{Curvature of surface of earth, rate of}%
+tiers, their convergence becomes considerable. At latitude~$40°$
+the convergence is about $6.7$~feet per mile or somewhat
+more than $40$~feet to each township. To prevent this
+diminution in size of townships to the north of the base
+line, standard parallels are run, along which six-mile
+%% -----File: 233.png---Folio 234-------
+measurements are made for a new set of townships. These
+lines are also called \emph{correction lines} for obvious reasons.
+
+\Paragraph{Division of Dakotas.} When Dakota Territory was

+\index{Division of Dakotas}%
+divided and permitted to enter the Union as two states,
+the dividing line agreed upon was the \emph{seventh standard parallel}
+\index{Standard parallel}%
+from the base line of the fifth principal meridian.
+This line is about four miles south of the parallel $46°$ from
+the equator and was chosen in preference to the geographic
+parallel because it was the boundary line between
+farms, sections, townships,
+and, to a considerable
+extent, counties.
+The boundary line between
+Minnesota and
+Iowa is what is called
+a secondary base line
+and corresponds to a
+standard parallel between
+\index{Tiers of townships}%
+tiers 100~and~101
+north of the base line
+\index{Base line|)}%
+of the fifth principal
+meridian.
+
+The standard parallels
+have been run at varying intervals, the present distance
+being $24$~miles. None at all were used in the earlier
+surveys. Since public roads are usually built on section
+and quarter section lines, wherever a north-south road
+crosses a correction line, there is a ``jog'' in the road, as a
+\index{Correction line}%
+glance at Figure~\figureref{i233}{103} will show.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i234-1}{Fig.~104.}
+
+\Paragraph{Townships Surveyed Northward and Westward.} The
+practice in surveying is to begin at the southeast corner of
+a township and measure off to the north and west. Thus
+the sections in the north and west are liable to be larger
+%% -----File: 234.png---Folio 235-------
+or smaller than $640$~acres, depending upon the accuracy of
+the survey. In case of a fractional township, made by the
+intervention of large bodies of water or the meeting of
+another system of survey or a state line, the sections bear
+the same numbers they would have if the township were
+full. Irregular surveys and other causes sometimes make
+the townships or sections
+considerably
+larger than the desired
+area. In such cases $40$~acre
+lots, or as near
+that size as possible,
+appear in the northern
+row of sections, the
+other half section remaining
+\index{Section}%
+as it would
+otherwise be. These
+lots may also appear
+in the western part of
+a township, and the
+discrepancy should appear in the western half of each
+section. This is illustrated in Figure~\figureref{i234-1}{104}.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i234-2}{Fig.~105.}
+
+\Paragraph{Legal Subdivisions of a Section.} The legal subdivisions

+\index{Section}%
+designation of the portions of a section is marked in Figure~\figureref{i234-2}{105}.

+\First{The} ability to measure the distance and size of objects
+\index{Measuring distances of objects}%
+without so much as touching them seems to the child or
+uneducated person to be a great mystery, if not an impossibility.
+Uninformed persons sometimes contend that
+astronomers only guess at the distances and dimensions
+of the sun, moon, or a planet. The principle of such measurement
+is very simple and may easily be applied.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i236-2}{Fig.~107}
+
+\Paragraph{\nbstretchyspace To Measure the Width of a Stream.} Suppose we wish to
+measure the width of a river,
+yard, or field without actually
+crossing it. First make a
+triangle having two equal
+sides and one right angle
+(Fig.~\figureref{i236-1}{106}). Select some easily
+distinguished point on the
+farther side, as~$X$ (Fig.~\figureref{i236-2}{107}), and find a convenient point
+opposite it, as~$B$. Now carry the triangle to the right or
+left of~$B$ until by sighting
+you see that the
+long side is in line with~$B$
+when the short side
+is in line with~$X$. You
+will then form the triangle
+$BAX$~or~$BCX$.
+It is apparent (by similar
+triangles) that $AB$~or~$CB$ equals~$BX$. Measure off $AB$~or~$BC$
+and you will have~$BX$, the distance sought. If
+%% -----File: 237.png---Folio 238-------
+\index{Measuring distances of objects!heights of objects}%
+you measure both to the right and to the left and take the
+average of the two you will get a more nearly correct
+result.
+
+\includegraphicsleft{i237}{Fig.~108}
+
+\Paragraph{To Measure the Height of an Object.} In a similar manner
+one may measure the height of a flagstaff or building.
+Let~$X$ represent the highest point in the flagstaff (Fig.~\figureref{i237}{108})
+and place the triangle on or near the ground, with the
+short side toward~$X$ and long side level. The distance to
+the foot of the pole is its height. It is easy to see from
+this that if we did not have a triangle just as described,
+say the angle at the
+point of sighting was
+less, by measuring
+that angle and looking
+up the value of
+its tangent in a trigonometrical
+table, one
+could as easily calculate
+the height or
+distance. The angle
+of the triangle from
+which sighting was done is~$45°$, its tangent is~$1.0000$, that is,
+$XB$~equals $1.0000$~times~$BC$. If the angle used were~$20°$, instead
+of~$45°$, its tangent would be~$.3640$; that is, $XB$~would
+equal $.3640$~times~$BC$. If the angle were~$60°$, the tangent
+would be~$1.7321$, that is, $XB$~would equal that number
+times~$BC$. A complete \hyperref[page:312]{list of tangents} for whole degrees
+is given in the Appendix. With the graduated quadrant
+the student can get the noon altitude of the sun (though
+for this purpose it need not be noon), and by getting the
+length of shadow and multiplying this by its natural tangent
+get the height of the object. If it is a building that
+is thus measured, the distance should be measured from
+%% -----File: 238.png---Folio 239-------
+the end of the shadow to the place directly under the point
+casting the longest shadow measured.
+
+Two examples may suffice to illustrate how this may
+be done.
+
+1. Say an object casts a shadow $100$~feet from its base
+when the altitude of the sun is observed to be~$58°$. The
+\hyperref[page:312]{table} shows the tangent of~$58°$ to be~$1.6003$. The height
+of the object, then, must be $1.6003$~times $100$~feet or $160.03$~feet.
+
+2. Suppose an object casts a shadow $100$~feet when the
+sun's height is observed to be $68°~12'$. Now the \hyperref[page:312]{table} does
+not give the tangent for fractions of degrees, so we must
+add to~$\tan 68°$ $\frac{1}{5}$~of the difference between the values of
+$\tan 68°$~and~$\tan 69°$ ($12' = \frac{1}{5}°$).
+
+The \hyperref[page:312]{table} shows that
+\begin{align*}
+\tan 69° & = 2.6051,\ \text{and} \\
+\tan 68° & = 2.4751,\ \text{hence the} \\
+\text{difference} & = \smash{\overline{\rule{0pt}{2ex}0.1300.}} \\
+\tfrac{1}{5}\ \text{of}\ .1300 & = 0.0260,\ \text{and since} \\
+\tan 68° & = 2.4751,\ \text{and we have found that} \\
+\tan 12' & = 0.0260,\ \text{it follows that} \\
+\tan 68°~12' & = 2.5011.
+\end{align*}
+
+Multiplying $100$~feet by this number representing the

+\Paragraph{How Astronomers Measure Sizes and Distances.} It is by

+the aid of these principles and the use of powerful and
+accurate instruments that the distances and dimensions of
+celestial bodies are determined, more accurately, in some
+instances, than would be likely to be done with rod and
+chain, were such measurement possible.
+
+In measuring the distance of the moon from the earth
+two observations may be made at the same moment from
+widely distant points on the earth. Thus a triangle is
+formed from station~A and station~B to the moon. The
+base and included angles being known, the distance can
+be calculated to the apex of the triangle, the moon. There
+are several other methods based upon the same general
+principles, such as two observations from the same point
+twelve hours apart. Since the calculations are based upon
+lines conceived to extend to the center of the earth, this is
+called the geocentric parallax (see \glossref{Parallax} in Glossary).
+\index{Parallax}%
+It is impossible to get the geocentric parallax of other
+stars than the sun because they are so far away that lines
+sighted to one from opposite sides of the earth are apparently
+parallel. It is only by making observations six
+months apart, the diameter of the earth's orbit forming the
+%% -----File: 241.png---Folio 242-------
+base of the triangle, that the parallaxes of about forty stars
+have been determined and even then the departure from
+the parallel is so exceedingly slight that the distance can
+be given only approximately. The parallax of stars is
+called heliocentric, since the base passes through the center
+of the sun.

+\index{Earth in Space|(}%
+
+\Paragraph{The Solar System.} The group of heavenly bodies to
+\index{Solar system|(}%
+which the earth belongs is called, after its great central
+sun, the solar system. The members of the solar system
+\index{Sun|(}%
+are the sun; eight large planets, some having attendant
+\index{Planets}%
+satellites or moons; several hundred smaller planets called
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+asteroids, or planetoids; and occasional comets and meteors.
+\index{Asteroids}%
+\index{Comets}%
+The planets with their satellites, and the asteroids all
+revolve around the sun in the same direction in elliptical
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+orbits not far from a common plane. Those visible to the
+naked eye may be seen not far from the ecliptic, the path
+of the sun in its apparent revolution. The comets and
+swarms of meteors also revolve around the sun in greatly
+elongated orbits.
+
+The solar system is \emph{widely separated} from any of the
+stars, with which the planets should not be confused. If
+one could fly from the earth to the sun, $93,000,000$ miles,
+in a single day, it would take him only a month to reach
+the orbit of the most distant planet, Neptune, but at that
+same terrific rate, it would take over seven hundred years
+\index{Distances, of planets!of stars}%
+\index{Star, distance of a}%
+to reach the very nearest of the distant stars. If a circle
+three feet in diameter be made to represent the orbit of
+the earth, an object over seventy miles away would represent
+the nearest of the distant stars.
+
+The earth's orbit as seen from the nearest star is as a
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+circle a trifle over half an inch in diameter seen at a distance
+of a mile. Do not imagine that the brightest stars
+are nearest.
+%% -----File: 246.png---Folio 247-------
+
+From the foregoing one should not fail to appreciate the
+immensity of the earth's orbit. It is small only in a relative
+sense. The earth's orbit is so large that in traveling
+eighteen and one half miles the earth departs from a
+perfectly straight line only about \emph{one ninth of an inch}; it
+is nearly $584,000,000$ miles in length and the average
+orbital velocity of the earth is $66,600$ miles per~hour.
+
+\Paragraph{Sun's Onward Motion.}\nblabel{page:247} It has been demonstrated that
+many of the so-called fixed stars are not fixed in relation
+to each other but have ``proper'' motions of their own.
+It is altogether probable that each star has its own motion
+in the universe. Now the sun is simply one of the stars
+(see p.~\pageref{page:265}), and it has been demonstrated that with its
+system of planets it is moving rapidly, perhaps $40,000$
+miles per~hour, toward the constellation Hercules. Many
+\index{Hercules@Hercules (h\~{e}r$'$c\={u}\;l\={e}z), constellation}%
+speculations are current as to whether our sun is controlled
+by some other sun somewhat as it controls the planets,
+and also as to general star systems. Any statement of
+such conditions with present knowledge is little, if any,
+more than a guess.
+
+\Paragraph{Nebular Hypothesis.} Time was when it was considered
+\index{Nebular hypothesis|(}%
+impious to endeavour to ascertain the processes by which
+God works ``in His mysterious way, His wonders to perform;''
+and to assign to natural causes and conditions
+what had been attributed to God's fiat was thought sacrilegious.
+It is hoped that day has forever passed.
+
+This great theory as to the successive stages and conditions
+in the development of the solar system, while
+doubtless faulty in some details, is at present almost the
+only working hypothesis advanced and ``forms the foundation
+of all the current speculations on the subject.'' It
+gives the facts of the solar system a unity and significance
+scarcely otherwise obtainable.
+%% -----File: 247.png---Folio 248-------
+
+A theory or a hypothesis, if worthy of serious attention,
+is always based upon facts. Some of the facts upon
+which the nebular theory is based are as follows:
+
+1. All of the planets are not far from a common
+plane.
+
+2. They all revolve around the sun in the same direction.
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+
+3. Planetary rotation and revolution are in the same
+direction, excepting, perhaps, in case of Uranus and
+Neptune.
+
+4. The satellites revolve around their respective planets
+in the direction of their rotation and not far from the
+plane of revolution.
+
+5. All the members seem to be made up of the same
+kinds of material.
+
+6. Analogy.
+
+\textit{a.} The nebulæ we see in the heavens have the same
+\index{Nebulae}%
+general appearances this theory assumes the solar system
+to have had.
+
+\textit{b.} The swarms of meteorites making the rings of Saturn
+\index{Meteors}%
+\index{Saturn}%
+are startlingly suggestive of the theory.
+
+\textit{c.} The gaseous condition of the sun with its corona
+suggests possible earlier extensions of it. The fact that
+the sun rotates faster at its equator than at other parts
+also points toward the nebular theory. The contraction
+theory of the source of the sun's heat, so generally accepted,
+\index{Sun|)}%
+is a corollary of the nebular theory.
+
+\textit{d.} The heated interior of the earth and the characteristics
+of the geological periods suggest this theory as
+the explanation.
+
+\Subparagraph{The Theory.} These facts reveal a system intimately
+related and pointing to a common physical cause. According
+to the theory, at one time, countless ages ago, all
+%% -----File: 248.png---Folio 249-------
+the matter now making up the solar system was in one
+great cloudlike mass extending beyond the orbit of the
+most distant planet. This matter was not distributed with
+uniform density. The greater attraction of the denser
+portions gave rise to the collection of more matter around
+them, and just as meteors striking our atmosphere generate
+\index{Meteors}%
+by friction the flash of light, sometimes called falling
+or shooting stars, so the clashing of particles in this nebulous
+mass generated intense heat.
+
+\Subparagraph{Rotary Motion.} Gradually the whole mass balanced
+about its center of gravity and a well-defined rotary
+motion developed. As the great nebulous mass condensed
+and contracted, it rotated faster and faster. The
+centrifugal force at the axis of rotation was, of course,
+zero and increased rapidly toward the equator. The force
+of gravitation thus being partially counteracted by centrifugal
+force at the equator, and less and less so at other
+points toward the axis, the mass flattened at the poles.
+The matter being so extremely thin and tenuous and acted
+upon by intense heat, also a centrifugal force, it flattened
+out more and more into a disklike form.
+
+As the heat escaped, the mass contracted and rotated
+faster than ever, the centrifugal force in the outer portion
+thus increased at a greater rate than did the power of
+gravitation due to its lessening diameter. Hence, a time
+came when the centrifugal force of the outer portions
+exactly balanced the attractive power of gravitation and
+the rim or outer fragments ceased to contract toward the
+central mass; and the rest, being nearer the center of
+gravity, shrank away from these outer portions. The
+outer ring or ringlike series of fragments, thus left off,
+continued a rotary motion around the central mass,
+remaining in essentially the same plane.
+%% -----File: 249.png---Folio 250-------
+
+\Subparagraph{Planets Formed from Outlying Portions.} Since the
+matter in the outlying portions, as in the whole mass, was
+somewhat unevenly distributed, the parts of it consolidated.
+The greater masses in the outer series hastened
+by their attraction the lesser particles back of them,
+retarded those ahead of them, and thus one mass was
+formed which revolved around the parent mass and
+rotated on its axis. If this body was not too dense it
+might collect into the satellites or moons revolving around
+it. This process continued until nine such rings or lumps
+had been thrown off, or, rather, \emph{left off}. The many small
+planets around the sun between the orbit of Mars and
+\index{Sun}%
+that of Jupiter were probably formed from one whose parts
+\index{Jupiter}%
+were so nearly of the same mass that no one by its preponderating
+attraction could gather up all into a planet.
+The explanation of the rings of Saturn is essentially the
+same.
+
+\Subparagraph{Conclusion as to the Nebular Hypothesis.} This theory,
+with modifications in detail, forms the basis for much of
+scientific speculation in subjects having to do with the
+earth. That it is the ultimate explanation, few will be so
+hardy as to affirm. Many questions and doubts have been
+thrown on certain phases recently but it is, in a sense,
+the point of departure for other theories which may displace
+it. Perhaps even the best of recent theories to
+receive the thoughtful attention of the scientific world,
+the ``planetesimal hypothesis,'' can best be understood
+\index{Planetesimal hypothesis}%
+in general outline, in terms of the nebular theory.
+
+\Paragraph{The Planetesimal Hypothesis.} This is a new explanation
+of the genesis of our solar system which has been
+worked out by Professors Chamberlin and Moulton of
+\index{Chamberlin, T. C.}%
+\index{Moulton, F. R.}%
+the University of Chicago, and is based upon a very
+\index{University of Chicago}%
+careful study of astronomical facts in the light of mathematics
+%% -----File: 250.png---Folio 251-------
+and astrophysics. It assumes the systems to have
+been evolved from a spiral nebula, similar to the most
+\index{Nebulae}%
+common form of nebulæ observed in the heavens. It is
+supposed that the nebulous condition may have been
+caused by our sun passing so near a star that the tremendous
+\index{Sun}%
+tidal strain caused the eruptive prominences (which
+the sun shoots out at frequent intervals) to be much
+larger and more vigorous than usual, and that these, when
+projected far out, were pulled forward by the passing star
+and given a revolutionary course about the sun. The arms
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+of spiral nebulæ have knots of denser matter at intervals
+which are supposed to be due to special explosive impulses
+and to become the centers of accretion later. The material
+thus shot out was very hot at first, but soon cooled
+into discrete bodies or particles which moved independently
+about the sun like planets (hence the term \emph{planetesimal}).
+\index{Orbit, of earth}%
+When their orbits crossed or approached each other,
+the smaller particles were gathered into the knots, and
+these ultimately grew into planets. Less than one seven-hundredth
+of the sun was necessary to form the planets
+and satellites.
+
+This hypothesis differs from the nebular hypothesis in a
+number of important particulars. The latter assumes the
+earth to have been originally in a highly heated condition,
+while under the planetesimal hypothesis the earth may
+have been measurably cool at the surface at all times, the
+interior heat being due to the compression caused by
+gravity. The nebular hypothesis views the atmosphere as
+\index{Atmosphere!origin of}%
+the thin remnant of voluminous original gases, whereas
+the new hypothesis conceives the atmosphere to have been
+gathered gradually about as fast as consumed, and to have
+come in part from the heated interior, chiefly by volcanic
+action, and in part from outer space. The oceans, according
+%% -----File: 251.png---Folio 252-------
+to the old theory, were condensed from the great
+masses of original aqueous vapors surrounding the earth;
+according to the new theory the water was derived from
+the same sources as the atmosphere. According to the
+\index{Atmosphere!origin of}%

+solid throughout its history, and never in the molten state
+assumed in the nebular hypothesis.

+\Section{Mars}
+
+\Paragraph{Form and Dimensions.} In form Mars is very similar
+to the earth, being slightly more flattened toward the
+poles. Its mean diameter is $4,200$~miles, a little more
+than half the earth's. A degree of latitude near the
+equator is $36.6$~miles long, getting somewhat longer toward
+the poles as in case of terrestrial latitudes.
+
+Mars has a little less than one third the surface of the
+earth, has one seventh the volume, weighs but one ninth
+as much, is three fourths as dense, and an object on its
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Mars}%
+surface weighs about two fifths as much as it would here.
+A man weighing one hundred and fifty pounds on the
+earth would weigh only fifty-seven pounds on Mars, could
+jump two and one half times as high or far, and could
+throw a stone two and one half times the distance he could
+here.\footnote
+ {He could not throw the stone any swifter on Mars than he could
+ on the earth; gravity there being so much weaker, the stone would move
+ farther before falling to the surface.}
+A pendulum clock taken from the earth to Mars
+would lose nearly nine hours in a day as the pendulum
+would tick only about seven elevenths as fast there. A
+%% -----File: 253.png---Folio 254-------
+watch, however, would run essentially the same there as
+here. As we shall see presently, either instrument would
+have to be adjusted in order to keep Martian time as the
+day there is longer than ours.
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation.} Because of its well-marked surface it has
+been possible to ascertain the period of rotation of Mars
+with very great precision. Its sidereal day is $24$~h.\ $37$~m.\
+$22.7$~s. The solar day is $39$~minutes longer than our solar
+day and owing to the greater ellipticity of its orbit the
+solar days vary more in length than do ours.

+\Paragraph{Revolution and Seasons.} A year on Mars has $668$~Martian
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+\index{Lowell, Percival}%
+days,\footnote
+ {\textit{Mars}, by Percival Lowell.}
+and is nearly twice as long as ours. The
+orbit is much more elliptical than that of the earth, perihelion
+being $26,000,000$~miles nearer the sun than aphelion.
+For this reason there is a marked change in the amount of
+heat received when Mars is at those two points, being
+almost one and one half times as much when in perihelion
+as when in aphelion. The northern summers occur when
+Mars is in aphelion, so that hemisphere has longer, cooler
+summers and shorter and warmer winters than the southern
+hemisphere.

+planet's ecliptic (instead of $23°~27'$ as with us) so the change
+in seasons and zones is very similar to ours, the climate,

+diameter. Phobos is so near to Mars ($3,750$~miles from the
+surface) that it looks almost as large to a Martian as our
+moon does to us, although not nearly so bright. Phobos,
+being so near to Mars, has a very swift motion around the
+\index{Mars|)}%
+planet, making more than three revolutions around it
+during a single Martian day. Now our moon travels
+around the earth from west to east but only about $13°$ in
+a day, so because of the earth's rotation the moon rises
+in the east and sets in the west. In case of Phobos, it
+revolves faster than the planet rotates and thus rises in
+the west and sets in the east. Thus if Phobos rose in the
+west at sunset in less than three hours it would be at
+meridian height and show first quarter, in five and one
+half hours it would set in the east somewhat past the
+full, and before sunrise would rise again in the west almost
+at the full again. Deimos has a sidereal period of $30.3$~hours

+%% -----File: 255.png---Folio 256-------
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Venus}%
+earth, so its latitude and longitude are very similar to ours.
+Its surface gravity is about $\frac{9}{10}$ that of the earth. A man
+weighing $150$~pounds here would weigh $135$~pounds there.
+
+\Paragraph{Revolution.} Venus revolves around the sun in a period
+of $225$ of our days, probably rotating once on the journey,
+thus keeping essentially the same face toward the sun.
+The day, therefore, is practically the same as the year, and
+the zones are two, one of perpetual sunshine and heat and
+the other of perpetual darkness and cold. Its atmosphere
+\index{Atmosphere!on Venus}%
+is of nearly the same density as that of the earth. Being
+a little more than seven tenths the distance of the earth
+from the sun, that blazing orb seems to have a diameter
+nearly one and one half times as great and pours nearly
+twice as much light and heat over a similar area. Its
+orbit is more nearly circular than that of any other planet.
+
+\Section{Jupiter}
+\index{Jupiter}%
+
+\Paragraph{Form and Dimensions.} After Venus, this is the brightest
+of the heavenly bodies, being immensely large and
+having very high reflecting power. Jupiter is decidedly
+oblate. Its equatorial diameter is $90,000$~miles and its
+polar diameter is $84,200$~miles. Degrees of latitude near
+the equator are thus nearly $785$~miles long, increasing to
+over $800$~miles near the pole. The area of the surface is
+$122$~times that of the earth, its volume~$1,355$, its mass or
+weight~$317$, and its density about one fourth.
+
+\Paragraph{Surface Gravity.} The weight of an object on the surface
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Jupiter}%
+of Jupiter is about two and two thirds times its weight
+here. A man weighing $150$~pounds here would weigh $400$~pounds
+there but would find he weighed nearly $80$~pounds
+more near the pole than at the equator, gravity being so
+much more powerful there. A pendulum clock taken from

+the earth to Jupiter would gain over nine hours in a day
+\index{Jupiter}%
+and would gain or lose appreciably in changing a single
+degree of latitude because of the oblateness of the planet.
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation.} The rotation of this planet is very rapid,
+occupying a little less than ten hours, and some portions
+seem to rotate faster than others. It seems to be in a
+molten or liquid state with an extensive envelope of gases,
+\index{Atmosphere!on Jupiter}%
+eddies and currents of which move with terrific speed.
+The day there is very short as compared with ours and a
+difference of one hour in time makes a difference of over
+$36°$~in longitude, instead of~$15°$ as with us. Their year
+being about $10,484$~of their days, their solar day is only a
+few seconds longer than their sidereal day.
+
+\Paragraph{Revolution.} The orbit of Jupiter is elliptical, perihelion
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}|(}%
+being about $42,000,000$ miles nearer the sun than aphelion.
+Its mean distance from the sun is $483,000,000$ miles, about
+five times that of the earth. The angle its equator forms
+with its ecliptic is only~$3°$, so there is little change in
+seasons. The vertical ray of the sun never gets more
+than $3°$~from the equator, and the torrid zone is $6°$~wide.
+The circle of illumination is never more than $3°$~from or
+beyond a pole so the frigid zone is only $3°$~wide. The
+temperate\footnote
+ {These terms are purely relative, meaning, simply, the zone on
+ Jupiter corresponding in position to the temperate zone on the earth.
+ The inappropriateness of the term may be seen in the fact that Jupiter
+ is intensely heated, so that its surface beneath the massive hot vapors

+zone is $84°$~wide.

+\index{Saturn}%
+
+\Paragraph{Form and Dimensions.} The oblateness of this planet
+is even greater than that of Jupiter, being the greatest of
+%% -----File: 257.png---Folio 258-------
+the planets. Its mean diameter is about $73,000$ miles. It,
+therefore, has $768$~times the volume of the earth and $84$~times
+the surface. Its density is the lowest of the planets,
+only about one eighth as dense as the earth. Its surface
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Saturn}%
+gravity is only slightly more than that of the earth, varying,
+however, $25$~per~cent from pole to equator.
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation.} Its sidereal period of rotation is about $10$~h.\
+$14$~m., varying slightly for different portions as in case
+of Jupiter. The solar day is only a few seconds longer
+than the sidereal day.
+
+\sloppy
+\Paragraph{Revolution.} Its average distance from the sun is
+$866,000,000$ miles, varying considerably because of its
+ellipticity. It revolves about the sun in $29.46$~of our
+years, thus the annual calendar must comprise $322,777$
+of the planet's days. %[**TN: Calculation error: 29.46 years is roughly 25,000 days of 10h 14m]
+
+\fussy
+The inclination of Saturn's axis makes an angle of~$27°$
+\index{Saturn}%
+between the planes of its equator and its ecliptic. Thus
+the vertical ray sweeps over~$54°$ giving that width to its
+torrid zone, $27°$~to the frigid, and $36°$~to the temperate.
+Its ecliptic and our ecliptic form an angle of~$2.5°$, so we
+always see the planet very near the sun's apparent path.
+
+Saturn has surrounding its equator immense disks, of
+thin, gauzelike rings, extending out nearly $50,000$ miles
+from the surface. These are swarms of meteors or tiny
+moons, swinging around the planet in very nearly the
+same plane, the inner ones moving faster than the outer
+ones and being so very minute that they exert no appreciable
+attractive influence upon the planet.
+
+In addition to the rings, Saturn has ten moons.

+\Paragraph{Form and Dimensions.} This planet, which is barely
+visible to the unaided eye, is also decidedly oblate, nearly
+\index{Zones|)}%
+%% -----File: 258.png---Folio 259-------
+as much so as Saturn. Its mean diameter is given as
+from $34,900$ miles to $28,500$ miles. Its volume, on basis
+of the latter (and latest) figures, is $47$~times that of the
+earth. Its density is very low, about three tenths that of
+the earth, and its surface gravity is about the same as
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Uranus}%
+ours at the equator, increasing somewhat toward the
+pole.
+
+Nothing certain is known concerning its rotation as it
+has no distinct markings upon its surface. Consequently
+we know nothing as to the axis, equator, days, calendar,
+or seasons.
+
+Its mean distance from the sun is $19.2$~times that of the
+earth and its sidereal year $84.02$~of our years.
+
+Uranus has four satellites swinging around the planet
+\index{Uranus@Uranus (\={u}$'$ra\;nus)}%
+in very nearly the same plane at an angle of~$82.2°$ to the
+plane of the orbit. They move from west to east around
+the planet, not for the same reason Phobos does about
+Mars, but probably because the axis of the planet, the
+plane of its equator, and the plane of these moons has
+been tipped~$97.8°$ from the plane of the orbit and the
+north pole has been tipped down below or south of the
+ecliptic, becoming the south pole, and giving a backward
+rotation to the planet and to its moons.
+
+\Section{Neptune}
+\index{Neptune}%
+
+Neptune is the most distant planet from the sun, is
+probably somewhat larger than Uranus, and has about
+the same density and slightly greater surface gravity.
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Neptune}%
+
+Owing to the absence of definite markings nothing is
+known as to its rotation. Its one moon, like those of
+Uranus, moves about the planet from west to east in a
+plane at an angle of $34°~48'$ to its ecliptic, and its backward
+motion suggests a similar explanation, the inclination
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}|)}%
+%% -----File: 259.png---Folio 260-------
+of its axis is more than~$90°$ from the plane of its
+\index{Neptune}%
+ecliptic.
+
+\Section{Mercury}
+\index{Mercury}%
+
+This is the nearest of the planets to the sun, and as it
+never gets away from the sun more than about the width
+of forty suns (as seen from the earth), it is rarely visible
+and then only after sunset in March and April or before
+sunrise in September and October.
+
+\Paragraph{Form and Dimensions.} Mercury has about three
+eighths the diameter of the earth, one seventh of the surface,
+and one eighteenth of the volume. It probably has
+one twentieth of the mass, nine tenths of the density,
+and a little less than one third of the surface gravity.
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on Mercury}%
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation and Revolution.} It is believed that Mercury
+rotates once on its axis during one revolution. Owing to
+its elliptical orbit it moves much more rapidly when near
+perihelion than when near aphelion, and thus the sun
+loses as compared with the average position, just as it
+does in the case of the earth, and sweeps eastward about~$23\frac{1}{2}°$
+from its average position. When in aphelion it gains
+and sweeps westward a similar amount. This shifting
+eastward making the sun ``slow'' and westward making
+the sun ``fast'' is called libration.
+
+Thus there are four zones on Mercury, vastly different
+\index{Zones}%
+from ours, indeed, they are not zones (belts) in a terrestrial
+sense.
+
+\textit{a.} An elliptical central zone of perpetual sunshine,
+extending from pole to pole and $133°$~in longitude. In
+this zone the vertical ray shifts eastward~$23 \frac{1}{2}°$ and back
+again in the short summer of about $30$~days, and westward
+a similar extent during the longer winter of about $58$~days.
+Two and one half times as much heat is received
+%% -----File: 260.png---Folio 261-------
+in the summer, when in perihelion, as is received in the
+winter, when in aphelion. Thus the eastward half of
+this zone has hotter summers and cooler winters than
+does the western half. Places along the eastern and
+western margin of this zone of perpetual sunshine see the
+sun on the horizon in winter and only $23 \frac{1}{2}°$~high in the
+summer.
+
+\textit{b.} An elliptical zone of perpetual darkness, extending
+from pole to pole and $133°$~wide from east to west.
+
+\textit{c.} Two elliptical zones of alternating sunshine and
+darkness (there being practically no atmosphere on Mercury,
+\index{Atmosphere!on Mercury}%
+\index{Mercury}%
+there is no twilight there), each extending from
+pole to pole and $47°$~wide. The eastern of these zones
+has hotter summers and cooler winters than the western
+one has.
+
+\Section{The Moon}
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}|(}%
+
+\Paragraph{Form and Dimensions.} The moon is very nearly
+spherical and has a diameter of $2,163$~miles, a little over
+one fourth that of the earth, its volume one forty-fourth,
+its density three fifths, its mass~$\frac{10}{815}$, and its surface
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}!on moon}%
+gravity one sixth that upon the earth. A pendulum
+clock taken there from the earth would tick so slowly
+that it would require about sixty hours to register one of
+our days. A degree of latitude (or longitude at its
+equator) is a little less than nineteen miles long.
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation.} The moon rotates exactly once in one revolution
+around the earth, that is, keeps the same face
+toward the earth, but turns different sides toward the
+sun once each month.
+
+Thus what we call a sidereal month is for the moon
+itself a sidereal day, and a synodic month is its solar
+day. The latter is $29.5306$~of our days, which makes the
+%% -----File: 261.png---Folio 262-------
+\index{Orbit, of earth!of moon}%
+moon's solar day have $708$~h.\ $44$~m.\ $3.8$~s. If its day were
+divided into twenty-four parts as is ours, each one would
+be longer than a whole day with us.
+
+\Paragraph{Revolution and Seasons.} The moon's orbit around the
+sun has essentially the same characteristics as to perihelion,
+aphelion, longer and shorter days,~etc., as that of
+the earth. The fact that the moon goes around the earth
+does not materially affect it from the sun's view point.
+To illustrate the moon's orbit about the sun, draw a circle
+$78$~inches in diameter. Make $26$~equidistant dots in
+this circle to represent the earth for each new and full
+moon of the year. Now for each new moon make a dot
+one twentieth of an inch toward the center (sun) from
+every other dot representing the earth, and for every full
+moon make a dot one twentieth of an inch beyond the
+alternate ones. These dots representing the moon, if
+connected, being never more than about one twentieth
+of an inch from the circle, will not vary materially from
+the circle representing the orbit of the earth, and the
+moon's orbit around the sun will be seen to have in every
+part a concave side toward the sun.
+
+The solar day of the moon being $29.53$~of our days, its
+tropical year must contain as many of those days as that
+number is contained times in $365.25$~days or about $12.4$~days.
+The calendar for the moon does not have anything
+\index{Calendar!on moon}%
+corresponding to our month, unless each day be
+treated as a month, but has a year of $12.4$~long days of
+nearly $709$~hours each. The exact length of the moon's
+solar year being $12.3689$~d., its calendar would have the
+peculiarity of having one leap year in every three, that is,
+two years of $12$~days each and then one of $13$~days,
+with an extra leap year every $28$~years.
+
+The earth as seen from the moon is much like the moon
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}|)}%
+%% -----File: 262.png---Folio 263-------
+as seen from the earth, though very much larger, about
+four times as broad. Because the moon keeps the same
+face constantly toward the earth, the latter is visible to
+only a little over half of the moon. On this earthward
+side our planet would be always visible, passing through
+precisely the same phases as the moon does for us, though
+\index{Phases of the moon}%
+in the opposite order, the time of our new moon being
+``full earth'' for the moon. So brightly does our earth
+then illuminate the moon that when only the faint crescent
+of the sunshine is visible to us on the rim of the
+moon, we can plainly see the ``earth shine'' on the rest
+of the moon's surface which is toward us.
+
+\Paragraph{Zones.} The inclination of the plane of the moon's
+\index{Zones}%
+equator to the plane of the ecliptic is $1°~32'$ (instead of
+$23°~27'$ as in the case of the earth). Thus its zone corresponding
+to our torrid\footnote
+ {Again we remind the reader that these terms are not appropriate
+ in case of other celestial bodies than the earth. The moon has almost
+ no atmosphere to retain the sun's heat during its long night of nearly
+\index{Atmosphere!absence of, on moon}%
+ $354$~hours and its dark surface must get exceedingly cold, probably
+ several hundred degrees below zero.}
+zone is $3°~4'$ wide, the frigid zone
+$1°~32'$, and the temperate zones $86°~56'$.
+
+\Paragraph{Absence of Atmosphere.}\nblabel{page:263} The absence of an atmosphere
+on the moon makes conditions there vastly different from
+those to which we are accustomed. Sunrise and sunset
+show no crimson tints nor beautiful coloring and there
+is no twilight. Owing to the very slow rotation of the
+moon, $709$~hours from sun-noon to sun-noon, it takes
+nearly an hour for the disk of the sun to get entirely above
+the horizon on the equator, from the time the first glint
+of light appears, and the time of sunset is equally prolonged;
+as on the earth, the time occupied in rising or
+setting is longer toward the poles of the moon. The stars
+%% -----File: 263.png---Folio 264-------
+do not twinkle, but shine with a clear, penetrating light.
+They may be seen as easily in the daytime as at night,
+even those very near the sun. Mercury is thus visible
+\index{Sun|(}%
+the most of the time during the long daytime of $354$~hours,
+and Venus as well. Out of the direct rays of the
+sun, pitch darkness prevails. Thus craters of the volcanoes
+are very dark and also cold. In the tropical portion
+the temperature probably varies from two or three hundred
+degrees below zero at night to exceedingly high temperatures
+in the middle of the day. During what is to the
+moon an eclipse of the sun, which occurs whenever we see
+the moon eclipsed, the sun's light shining through our
+atmosphere makes the most beautiful of coloring as
+\index{Atmosphere!absence of, on moon}%
+viewed from the moon. The moon's atmosphere is so
+rare that it is incapable of transmitting sound, so that a
+deathlike silence prevails there. Oral conversation is
+utterly impossible and the telephone and telegraph as we
+have them would be of no use whatever. Not a drop of
+water exists on that cold and cheerless satellite.
+
+Perhaps it is worth noting, in conclusion, that it is
+believed that our own atmosphere is but the thin remnant
+of dense gases, and that in ages to come it will get more
+and more rarified, until at length the earth will have the
+same conditions as to temperature, silence,~etc., which
+now prevail on the moon.

+\index{Sun!a star|(}%
+
+\Paragraph{Rotation.} The sun rotates on its axis in about $25\frac{1}{3\extrafracspacing}$ of
+our days, showing the same portion to the earth every
+$27\frac{1}{4}$~days. This rate varies for different portions of the
+sun, its equator rotating considerably faster than higher
+latitudes. The direction of its rotation is from west to
+east from the sun's point of view, though as viewed from
+the earth the direction is from our east to our west. The
+plane of the equator forms an angle of about~$26°$ with the
+plane of our equator, though only about~$7\frac{1}{4}°$ with the
+plane of the ecliptic.
+
+When we realize that the earth, as viewed from the sun,
+is so tiny that it receives not more than one billionth of
+its light and heat, we may form some idea of the immense
+flood of energy it constantly pours forth.

+\Section{The Form of the Earth}
+
+\First{While} various views have been held regarding the form
+of the earth, those worthy of attention\footnote
+ {As for modern, not to say recent, pseudo-scientists and alleged
+ divine revealers who contend for earths of divers forms, the reader
+ is referred to the entertaining chapter entitled ``Some Cranks and
+ their Crotchets'' in John Fiske's \textit{A Century of Science}, also the footnote
+\index{Fiske, John}%
+ on pp.~267--268, Vol.~I, of his \textit{Discovery of America}.}
+may be grouped
+under four general divisions.
+
+\Paragraph{{\mdseries I.} The Earth Flat.} Doubtless the universal belief of
+primitive man was that, save for the irregularities of mountain,
+hill, and valley, the surface of the earth is flat. In all
+the earliest literature that condition seems to be assumed.
+The ancient navigators could hardly have failed to observe
+the apparent convex surface of the sea and very ancient
+literature as that of Homer alludes to the bended sea.
+\index{Homer}%
+This, however, does not necessarily indicate a belief in the
+spherical form of the earth.
+
+Although previous to his time the doctrine of the spherical
+form of the earth had been advanced, Herodotus
+\index{Herodotus@Herodotus (he\;r\u{o}d$'$\;o\;tus)}%
+(born about 484~\BC, died about 425~\BC)\ did not believe
+in it and scouted whatever evidence was advanced in its
+favor. Thus in giving the history of the Ptolemys, kings
+\index{Ptolemy Necho, of Egypt}%
+of Egypt, he relates the incident of Ptolemy Necho (about
+\index{Egypt}%
+610--595~\BC)\ sending Ph{\oe}nician sailors on a voyage
+\index{Phoenicians}%
+around Africa, and after giving the sailors' report that
+\index{Africa}%
+they saw the \emph{sun to the northward} of them, he says, ``I,
+%% -----File: 268.png---Folio 269-------
+for my part, do not believe them.'' Now seeing the sun
+to the northward is the most logical result if the earth be
+a sphere and the sailors went south of the equator or south
+of the tropic of Cancer in the northern summer.
+\index{Cancer, constellation of!tropic of}%
+\index{Tropics}%
+
+Ancient travelers often remarked the apparent sinking
+of southern stars and rising of northern stars as they
+traveled northward, and the opposite shifting of the heavens
+as they traveled southward again. In traveling eastward
+or westward there was no displacement of the heavens
+and travel was so slow that the difference in time of
+sunrise or star-rise could not be observed. To infer that
+the earth is curved, at least in a north-south direction, was
+most simple and logical. It is not strange that some began
+to teach that the earth is a cylinder. Anaximander (about
+\index{Anaximander@Anaximander (\u{a}n\;\u{a}x\;\u{\i}\;m\u{a}n$'$der)}%
+611--547~\BC), indeed, did teach that it is a cylinder\footnote
+ {According to some authorities he taught that the earth is a
+ sphere and made terrestrial and celestial globes. See Ball's \textit{History of
+ Mathematics}, p.~18.}
+\index{Ball's History of Mathematics}%
+and
+thus prepared the way for the more nearly correct theory.
+
+\Paragraph{{\mdseries II.} The Earth a Sphere.} The fact that the Chaldeans
+\index{Chaldeans}%
+had determined the length of the tropical year within less
+than a minute of its actual value, had discovered the precession
+of the equinoxes, and could predict eclipses over
+two thousand years before the Christian era and that in
+China similar facts were known, possibly at an earlier
+\index{China}%
+period, would indicate that doubtless many of the astronomers
+of those very ancient times had correct theories as
+to the form and motions of the earth. So far as history
+has left any positive record, however, Pythagoras (about
+\index{Pythagoras@Pythagoras (p\u{\i}\;th\u{a}g$'$\={o}\;ras)}%
+582--507~\BC), a Greek\footnote
+ {Sometimes called a Ph{\oe}nician.}
+philosopher, seems to have been
+the first to advance the idea that the earth is a sphere.
+His theory being based largely upon philosophy, nothing
+%% -----File: 269.png---Folio 270-------
+but a perfect sphere would have answered for his conception.
+He was also the first to teach that the earth
+rotates\footnote
+ {Strictly speaking, Pythagoras seems to have taught that both
+ sun and earth revolved about a central fire and an opposite earth
+ revolved about the earth as a shield from the central fire. This rather
+ complicated machinery offered so many difficulties that his followers
+ abandoned the idea of the central fire and ``opposite earth'' and had
+ the earth rotate on its own axis.}
+on its axis and revolves about the sun.
+
+Before the time of Pythagoras, Thales (about 640--546~\BC),
+\index{Pythagoras@Pythagoras (p\u{\i}\;th\u{a}g$'$\={o}\;ras)}%
+\index{Thales@Thales (th\={a}$'$l\={e}z)}%
+and other Greek philosophers had divided the earth
+into five zones, the torrid zone being usually considered
+so fiery hot that it could not be crossed, much less inhabited.
+Thales is quoted by Plutarch as believing that the
+\index{Plutarch}%
+earth is a sphere, but it seems to have been proved that
+Plutarch was in error. Many of the ancient philosophers
+did not dare to teach publicly doctrines not commonly
+accepted, for fear of punishment for impiety. It is
+possible that his private teaching was different from his
+public utterances, and that after all Plutarch was right.
+
+Heraclitus, Plato, Eudoxus, Aristotle and many others
+\index{Aristotle@Aristotle (\u{a}r$'$\u{\i}s\;tot\;l)}%
+\index{Eratosthenes@Eratosthenes (\~{e}r\;\.{a}\;t\u{o}s$'$\;th\={e}\;n\={e}z)}%
+\index{Heraclitus@Heraclitus (h\u{e}r\;a\;kl\={\i}$'$tus)}%
+\index{Eudoxus}%
+\index{Plato}%
+in the next two centuries taught the spherical form of the
+earth, and, perhaps, some of them its rotation. Most of
+them, however, thought it not in harmony with a perfect
+universe, or that it was impious, to consider the sun as
+predominant and so taught the geocentric theory.
+
+The first really scientific attempt to calculate the size
+of the earth was by Eratosthenes (about 275--195~\BC).
+He was the keeper of the royal library at Alexandria, and
+made many astronomical measurements and calculations
+of very great value, not only for his own day but for ours
+as well. Syene, the most southerly city of the Egypt of
+\index{Syene, Egypt}%
+his day, was situated where the sundial cast no shadow
+at the summer solstice. Measuring carefully at Alexandria,
+\index{Alexandria, Egypt}%
+%% -----File: 270.png---Folio 271-------
+he found the noon sun to be one fiftieth of the circumference
+to the south of overhead. He then multiplied
+the distance between Syene and Alexandria, $5,000$~stadia
+\index{Stadium@Stadium (st\={a}$'$\;d\u{\i}\;um)}%
+\index{Alexandria, Egypt}%
+by~$50$ and got the whole circumference of the earth to be
+$250,000$ stadia. The distance between the cities was not
+known very accurately and his calculation probably contained
+a large margin of error, but the exact length of the
+Greek stadium of his day is not known\footnote
+ {The most reliable data seem to indicate the length of the stadium
+ was $606\frac{3}{4}$~feet.}
+and we cannot
+tell how near the truth he came.
+
+Any sketch of ancient geography would be incomplete
+without mention of Strabo (about 54~\BC--21~\AD) who is
+\index{Strabo@Strabo (str\={a}$'$b\={o})}%
+sometimes called the ``father of geography.'' He believed
+the earth to be a sphere at the center of the universe.
+He continued the idea of the five zones, used such circles
+as had commonly been employed by astronomers and
+geographers before him, such as the equator, tropics, and
+polar circles. His work was a standard authority for
+many centuries.
+
+About a century after the time of Eratosthenes, Posidonius,
+\index{Eratosthenes@Eratosthenes (\~{e}r\;\.{a}\;t\u{o}s$'$\;th\={e}\;n\={e}z)}%
+\index{Posidonius@Posidonius (p\u{o}s$'$\u{\i}\;d\={o}\;n\u{\i}\;us)}%
+a contemporary of Strabo, made another measurement,
+basing his calculations upon observations of a star
+instead of the sun, and getting a smaller circumference,
+though that of Eratosthenes was probably too small.
+Strabo, Hipparchus, Ptolemy and many others made estimates
+\index{Hipparchus@Hipparchus (h\u{\i}p\;ar$'$kus)}%
+\index{Ptolemy, Claudius}%
+as to the size of the earth, but we have no record of
+any further measurements with a view to exact calculation
+until about 814~\AD{} when the Arabian caliph Al-Mamoum
+\index{Al-Mamoum}%
+sent astronomers and surveyors northward and southward,
+carefully measuring the distance until each party found a
+star to have shifted to the south or north one degree.
+%% -----File: 271.png---Folio 272-------
+This distance of two degrees was then multiplied by~$180$
+and the whole circumference obtained.
+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!terrestrial}%
+
+The period of the dark ages was marked by a decline in
+learning and to some extent a reversion to primitive conceptions
+concerning the size, form, or mathematical properties
+of the earth. Almost no additional knowledge
+was acquired until early in the seventeenth century.
+Perhaps this statement may appear strange to some
+readers, for this was long after the discovery of America
+by Columbus. It should be borne in mind that his voyage
+\index{Columbus, Christopher}%
+and the resulting discoveries and explorations contributed
+nothing directly to the knowledge of the form or size of
+the earth. That the earth is a sphere was generally
+believed by practically all educated people for centuries
+before the days of Columbus. The Greek astronomer
+Cleomedes, writing over a thousand years before Columbus
+\index{Cleomedes@Cleomedes (kl\={e}\;\u{o}m$'$\={e}\;d\={e}z)}%
+was born, said that all competent persons excepting
+the Epicureans accepted the doctrine of the spherical
+\index{Epicureans}%
+form of the earth.
+
+In 1615 Willebrord Snell, professor of mathematics at
+\index{Snell, Willebrord}%
+the University of Leyden, made a careful triangular survey
+\index{Leyden, Holland}%
+\index{Survey}%
+of the level surfaces about Leyden and calculated
+the length of a degree of latitude to be $66.73$~miles. A
+recalculation of his data with corrections which he suggested
+gives the much more accurate measurement of $69.07$~miles.
+About twenty years later, an Englishman named
+Richard Norwood made measurements and calculations
+\index{Norwood, Richard}%
+in southern England and gave $69.5$ as the length of a
+degree of latitude, the most accurate measurement up to
+that time.
+
+It was about 1660 when Isaac Newton (1642--1727)
+\index{Newton, Isaac}%
+discovered the laws of gravitation, but when he applied
+\index{Gravitation}%
+the laws to the motions of the moon his calculations did
+%% -----File: 272.png---Folio 273-------
+not harmonize with what he assumed to be the size
+of the earth. About 1671 the French astronomer, Jean
+\index{Picard@Picard (p\={e}\;kär$'$), Jean}%
+Picard, by the use of the telescope, made very careful
+measurements of a little over a degree of longitude and
+obtained a close approximation to its length. Newton,
+learning of the measurement of Picard, recalculated the
+mass of the earth and motions of the moon and found his
+law of gravitation as the satisfactory explanation of all the
+conditions. Then, in 1682, after having patiently waited
+over twenty years for this confirmation, he announced
+the laws of gravitation, one of the greatest discoveries
+in the history of mankind. We find in this an excellent
+instance of the interdependence of the sciences. The
+careful measurement of the size of the earth has contributed
+immensely to the sciences of astronomy and physics.
+
+\Paragraph{{\mdseries III.} The Earth an Oblate Spheroid.}\nblabel{page:273} From the many
+\index{Oblateness of earth|(}%
+calculations which Newton's fertile brain could now make,
+he soon was enabled to announce that the earth must be,
+not a true sphere, but an oblate spheroid. Christian
+Huygens, a celebrated contemporary of Newton, also contended
+\index{Huygens@Huygens (h\={\i}$'$gens), Christian}%
+for the oblate form of the earth, although not on
+the same grounds as those advanced by Newton.
+
+In about 1672 the trip of the astronomer Richer to
+\index{Richer@Richer (re\;sh\={a}y$'$), John}%
+French Guiana, South America, and his discovery that
+\index{Guiana, French}%
+\index{South America}%
+pendulums swing more slowly there (see the discussion
+under the topic The Earth an Oblate Spheroid, p.~\pageref{page:28}),
+and the resulting conclusion that the earth is not a true
+sphere, but is flattened toward the poles, gave a new
+impetus to the study of the size of the earth and other
+mathematical properties of it.
+
+Over half a century had to pass, however, before the
+true significance of Richer's discovery was apparent to
+all or generally accepted. An instance of a commonly
+%% -----File: 273.png---Folio 274-------
+accepted reason assigned for the shorter equatorial pendulum
+is the following explanation which was given to
+James~II of England when he made a visit to the Paris
+\index{Paris, France}%
+\index{James II., King of England}%
+\index{England}%
+Observatory in 1697. ``While Jupiter at times appears
+\index{Jupiter}%
+to be not perfectly spherical, we may bear in mind the
+fact that the theory of the earth being flattened is sufficiently
+disproven by the circular shadow which the earth
+throws on the moon. The apparent necessary shortening
+of the pendulum toward the south is really only a correction
+for the expansion of the pendulum in consequence of
+the higher temperature.'' It is interesting to note that if
+this explanation were the true one, the average temperature
+at Cayenne would have to be $43°$~above the boiling
+point.
+
+\index{Proofs, form of earth}%
+Early in the eighteenth century Giovanni Cassini, the
+astronomer in charge of the Paris Observatory, assisted by
+his son, continued the measurement begun by Picard and
+\index{Picard@Picard (p\={e}\;kär$'$), Jean}%
+came to the conclusion that the earth is a prolate spheroid.
+A warm discussion arose and the Paris Academy of
+Sciences decided to settle the matter by careful measurements
+in polar and equatorial regions.
+
+In 1735 two expeditions were sent out, one into Lapland
+\index{Lapland}%
+and the other into Peru. Their measurements, while
+\index{Peru}%
+not without appreciable errors, showed the decided difference
+of over half a mile for one degree and demonstrated
+conclusively the oblateness of a meridian and, as Voltaire
+\index{Voltaire}%
+wittily remarked at the time, ``flattened the poles and
+the Cassinis.''
+\index{Cassini@Cassini (käs\;s\={e}$'$n\={e}), G. D., and J.}%
+
+The calculation of the oblateness of the earth has occupied
+the attention of many since the time of Newton. His
+calculation was~$\frac{1}{230}$; that is, the polar diameter was $\frac{1}{230}$
+shorter than the equatorial. Huygens estimated the flattening
+\index{Huygens@Huygens (h\={\i}$'$gens), Christian}%
+to be about~$\frac{1}{500}$. The most commonly accepted
+%% -----File: 274.png---Folio 275-------
+spheroid representing the earth is the one calculated in
+1866 by A.~R. Clarke, for a long time at the head of the
+\index{Clarke, A. R.}%
+English Ordnance Survey (see p.~\pageref{page:30}). Purely astronomical
+calculations, based upon the effect of the bulging of the
+equator upon the motion of the moon, seem to indicate
+slightly less oblateness than that of General Clarke. Professor
+William Harkness, formerly astronomical director
+\index{Harkness, William}%
+of the United States Naval Observatory, calculated it to
+be very nearly~$\frac{1}{300}$.\nblabel{page:275}

+
+The Pythagoreans maintained as a principle in their
+\index{Pythagoras@Pythagoras (p\u{\i}\;th\u{a}g$'$\={o}\;ras)}%
+philosophy that the earth rotates on its axis and revolves
+about the sun. Basing their theory upon \textit{a~priori} reasoning,
+they had little better grounds for their belief than
+those who thought otherwise. Aristarchus (about 310--250~\BC),
+\index{Aristarchus@Aristarchus (\u{a}r\;\u{\i}s\;tär$'$k\u{u}s)}%
+a Greek astronomer, seems to have been the
+first to advance the heliocentric theory in a systematic
+manner and one based upon careful observations and calculations.
+From this time, however, until the time of
+%% -----File: 275.png---Folio 276-------
+Copernicus, the geocentric theory was almost universally
+\index{Copernicus@Copernicus (k\={o}\;per$'$n\u{\i}\;k\u{u}s)|(}%
+adopted.
+
+\sloppy
+The geocentric theory is often called the Ptolemaic system
+\index{Ptolemaic system}%
+from Claudius Ptolemy (not to be confused with
+ancient Egyptian kings of the same name), an Alexandrian
+astronomer and mathematician, who seems to have done
+most of his work about the middle of the second century,~\AD.
+He seems to have adopted, in general, the valuable
+astronomical calculations of \nblabel{page:276}Hipparchus (about 180--110~\BC).
+The system is called after him because he compiled
+so much of the observations of other astronomers
+who had preceded him and invented a most ingenious
+system of ``cycles,'' ``epicycles,'' ``deferents,'' ``centrics,''
+and ``eccentrics'' (now happily swept away by the Copernican
+system) by which practically all of the known facts
+of the celestial bodies and their movements could be
+accounted for and yet assume the earth to be at the center
+of the universe.
+
+\fussy
+Among Ptolemy's contributions to mathematical geography
+were his employment of the latitude and longitude
+of places to represent their positions on the globe (a scheme
+probably invented by Hipparchus), and he was the first
+to use the terms ``meridians of longitude'' and ``parallels
+of latitude.'' It is from the Latin translation of his subdivisions
+of degrees that we get the terms ``minutes'' and
+``seconds'' (for centuries the division had been followed,
+originating with the Chaldeans. See p.\pageref{page:141}). The sixty
+subdivisions he called first small parts; in Latin, ``\textit{minutæ
+primæ},'' whence our term ``minute.'' The sixty subdivisions
+of the minute he called second small parts; in
+Latin, ``\textit{minutæ secundæ},'' whence our term ``second.''
+
+The Copernican theory of the solar system, which has
+\index{Copernican system@Copernican system \indexglossref{Copernican system}|(}%
+universally displaced all others, gets its name from the
+%% -----File: 276.png---Folio 277-------
+Polish astronomer Nicolas Copernicus (1473--1543). He
+revived the theory of Aristarchus, and contended that the
+\index{Aristarchus@Aristarchus (\u{a}r\;\u{\i}s\;tär$'$k\u{u}s)}%
+earth is not at the center of the solar system, but that the
+sun is, and planets all revolve around the sun. He had
+\index{Proofs, form of earth!revolution of earth}%
+no more reasons for this conception than for the geocentric
+theory, excepting that it violated no laws or principles,
+was in harmony with the known facts, and was simpler.
+
+Contemporaries and successors of Copernicus were far
+from unanimous in accepting the heliocentric theory. One
+\index{Geocentric, latitude!theory,@theory, \indexglossref{Geocentric, Theory}}%
+\index{Heliocentric theory@Heliocentric theory \indexglossref{Heliocentric, Theory}}%
+of the dissenters of the succeeding generation is worthy of
+note for his logical though erroneous argument against it.
+\index{Brahe (brä), Tycho}%
+Tycho Brahe\footnote
+ {Tycho Brahe (1546--1601) a famous Swedish astronomer, was born
+ at Knudstrup, near Lund, in the south of Sweden, but spent most of
+\index{Sweden}%
+ his life in Denmark.}
+contended that the Copernican theory was
+impossible, because if the earth revolved around the sun,
+and at one season was at one side of its orbit, and at
+another was on the opposite side, the stars would apparently
+change their positions in relation to the earth (technically,
+there would be an annual parallax), and he could
+\index{Parallax}%
+detect no such change. His reasoning was perfectly sound,
+but was based upon an erroneous conception of the distances
+of the stars. The powerful instruments of the past
+fifty years have made these parallactic motions of many of
+the stars a determinable, though a very minute, angle, and
+constitute an excellent proof of the heliocentric theory
+(see p.~\pageref{page:109}).
+
+Nine years after the death of Brahe, Galileo Galilei
+\index{Galilei, Galileo@Galilei, Galileo (g\u{a}l\;\u{\i}\;l\={e}$'$\={o}\;g\u{a}l\;\u{\i}\;l\={a}$'$\={e})}%
+(1564--1642) by the use of his recently invented telescope

+\index{Jupiter}%

+Following upon the heels of this came his discovery that
+Venus in its swing back and forth near the sun plainly

+shows phases just as our moon does, and appears larger
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%

+\index{Proofs, form of earth!revolution of earth}%
+\index{Revolution@Revolution \indexglossref{Revolution}}%
+again confirming by analogy the Copernican theory. Galilei

+As an illustration of the humiliating subterfuges to
+which he was compelled to resort in order to present an
+argument based upon the heretical theory, the following
+is a quotation from an argument he entered into concerning
+three comets which appeared in 1618. He based
+\index{Comets}%
+his argument as to their motions upon the Copernican
+system, professing to repudiate that theory at the same
+time.
+
+``Since the motion attributed to the earth, which I as

+to exist, accommodates itself so well to explain so many and
+such different phenomena, I shall not feel sure that, false
+as it is, it may not just as deludingly correspond with the

+
+One of the best supporters of this theory in the next

+\First{Gravity} is frequently defined as the earth's attractive
+influence for an object. Since the attractive influence
+of the mass of the earth for an object on or near its surface
+is lessened by centrifugal force (see p.~\pageref{page:14b}) and in
+other ways (see p.~\pageref{page:183}), it is more accurate to say that
+the force of gravity is the resultant of

+\textit{a.} The attractive force mutually existing between the
+earth and the object, and
+
+\textit{b.} The lessening influence of centrifugal force due to

+the earth's rotation.
+
+Let us consider these two factors separately, bearing

+
+\textit{a.} Every particle of matter attracts every other
+particle.
+
+(1) Hence the point of gravity for any given object

+the object itself as well as the mass of the earth. The
+object pulls the earth as truly and as much as the earth
+attracts the object. The common center of gravity of the
+earth and this object lies somewhere between the center
+of the earth's mass and the center of the mass of the
+object. Each object on the earth's surface, then, must
+have its own independent common center of gravity between
+it and the center of the earth's mass. The position
+of this common center will vary---
+
+(\textit{a}) As the object varies in amount of matter (first
+law), and
+%% -----File: 279.png---Folio 280-------
+
+(\textit{b}) As the distance of the object from the center of
+the earth's mass varies (inversely as the square of the
+distance).
+
+(2) Because of this principle, the position of the sun
+or moon slightly modifies the exact position of the center
+of gravity just explained. It was shown in the discussion
+of tides that, although the tidal lessening of
+\index{Tides}%
+the weight of an object is as yet an immeasurable
+quantity, it is a calculable one and produces tides (see
+p.~\pageref{page:183}).
+
+\textit{b.}\nblabel{page:280} The rotation of the earth gives a centrifugal force
+to every object on its surface, save at the poles.
+
+(1) Centrifugal force thus exerts a slight lifting influence
+on objects, increasing toward the equator. This
+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!terrestrial}%
+lightening influence is sufficient to decrease the weight
+of an object at the equator by $\frac{1}{289}$~of the whole. That
+is to say, an object which weighs $288$~pounds at the
+equator would weigh a pound more if the earth did not
+rotate. Do not infer from this that the centrifugal force
+at the pole being zero, a body weighing $288$~pounds at the
+equator would weigh $289$~pounds at the pole, not being
+\index{Pole, celestial!terrestrial}%
+lightened by centrifugal force. This would be true \emph{if the
+earth were a sphere}. The bulging at the equator decreases
+a body's weight there by~$\frac{1}{599}$ as compared with the weight
+at the poles. Thus a body at the equator has its weight
+lessened by~$\frac{1}{289}$ because of rotation and by~$\frac{1}{599}$ because
+of greater distance from the center, or a total of~$\frac{1}{195}$ of
+its weight as compared with its weight at the pole. A
+body weighing $195$~pounds at the pole, therefore, weighs
+but $194$~pounds at the equator. Manifestly the rate of
+the earth's rotation determines the amount of this centrifugal
+force. If the earth rotated seventeen times as
+fast, this force at the equator would exactly equal the
+%% -----File: 280.png---Folio 281-------
+earth's attraction,\footnote
+ {Other things equal, centrifugal force varies with the square of
+ the velocity (see p.~\pageref{page:14}), and since centrifugal force at the equator equals
+ $289$~times gravity, if the velocity of rotation were increased $17$~times,
+ centrifugal force would equal gravity ($17^2 = 289$).}
+objects there would have no weight;
+that is, gravity would be zero. In such a case the plumb
+line at all latitudes would point directly toward the nearest
+celestial pole. A clock at the 45th~parallel with a pendulum
+beating seconds would gain one beat every $19 \frac{1}{2}$ minutes
+if the earth were at rest, but would lose three beats in the
+same time if the earth rotated twice as fast.
+
+\nblabel{page:281}(2) Centrifugal force due to the rotation of the earth
+not only affects the amount of gravity, but modifies the
+direction in which it is exerted. Centrifugal force acts
+in a direction at right angles to the axis, not directly
+opposite the earth's attraction excepting at the equator.
+Thus plumb lines, excepting at the equator and poles,
+are slightly tilted toward the poles.

+\AppendixSection{LATITUDE}\nblabel{page:282}
+
+In Chapter~\hyperref[chap:II]{II} the latitude of a place was simply defined
+as the arc of a meridian intercepted between that place
+and the equator. This is true geographical latitude, but
+the discussion of \emph{gravity} places us in a position to understand
+astronomical and geocentric latitude, and how geographic
+latitude is determined from astronomical latitude.
+
+Owing to the elliptical form of a meridian ``circle,'' the
+vertex of the angle constituting the latitude of a place is
+not at the center of the globe. A portion of a meridian
+circle near the equator is an arc of a smaller circle than
+a portion of the same \DPtypo{meridan}{meridian} near the pole (see p.~\pageref{fig:i042}
+and Fig.~\figureref{i042}{18}).
+
+\Paragraph{Geocentric Latitude.} It is sometimes of value to speak
+\index{Latitude@Latitude \indexglossref{Latitude}\phantomsection\label{idx:lt}!geocentric}%
+of the angle formed at the center of the earth by two
+lines, one drawn to the place whose latitude is sought,
+and the other to the equator on the same meridian. This
+is called the geocentric latitude of the place.
+
+\Paragraph{Astronomical Latitude.} The astronomer ascertains latitude
+\index{Latitude@Latitude \indexglossref{Latitude}\phantomsection\label{idx:lt}!astronomical}%
+from celestial measurements by reference to a level
+line or a plumb line. Astronomical latitude, then, is the
+angle formed between the plumb line and the plane of
+the equator.
+
+In the discussion of gravity, the last effect of centrifugal
+%% -----File: 282.png---Folio 283-------
+force noted was on the direction of the plumb line.
+It was shown that this line, excepting at the equator and
+poles, is deviated slightly toward the pole. The effect of
+this is to increase correspondingly the astronomical latitude
+of a place. Thus at latitude~$45°$, astronomical latitude
+is increased by $5'~57''$, the amount of this deviation.
+If there were no rotation of the earth, there would be no
+deviation of the plumb line, and what we call latitude~$60°$
+would become $59°~54'~51''$. Were the earth to rotate twice
+as fast, this latitude, as determined by the same astronomical
+instruments, would become $60°~15'~27''$.
+
+If adjacent to a mountain, the plumb line deviates
+toward the mountain because of its attractive influence on
+the plumb bob; and other deviations are also observed,
+such as with the ebb and flow of a near by tidal wave.
+These deviations are called ``station errors,'' and allowance
+must be made for them in making all calculations based
+upon the plumb line.
+
+\Paragraph{Geographical latitude} is simply the astronomical latitude,
+\emph{corrected} for the deviation of the plumb line. Were it not
+for these deviations the latitude of a place would be determined
+within a few feet of perfect accuracy. As it is,
+errors of a few hundred feet sometimes may occur (see

+\AppendixSection{MOTIONS OF THE EARTH'S AXIS}\nblabel{page:286a}
+\index{Motions of the earth's axis|(}%
+
+In the \hyperref[chap:VIII]{chapter} on seasons it was stated that excepting
+for exceedingly slow or minute changes the earth's axis
+at one time is parallel to itself at other times. There are
+three such motions of the axis.
+
+\Paragraph{Precession of the Equinoxes.}\nblabel{page:286} Since the earth is slightly

+of~$23\frac{1}{2}°$ to the ecliptic, the sun's attraction on this rim
+\index{Ecliptic@Ecliptic \indexglossref{Ecliptic}}%
+tends to draw the axis over at right angles to the equator.
+The rotation of the earth, however, tends to keep the
+axis parallel to itself, and the effect of the additional acceleration
+of the equator is to cause the axis to rotate slowly,
+keeping the same angle to the ecliptic, however.
+
+At the time of Hipparchus (see p.~\pageref{page:276}), who discovered
+\index{Hipparchus@Hipparchus (h\u{\i}p\;ar$'$kus)}%
+this rotation of the axis, the present North star, Alpha
+Ursa Minoris, was about $12°$~from the true pole of the
+\index{Pole, celestial}%
+\index{Pole, celestial!of the ecliptic}%
+\index{Pole, celestial!terrestrial}%
+celestial sphere, toward which the axis points. The course
+which the pole is taking is bringing it somewhat nearer
+the polestar; it is now about $1°~15'$~away, but a hundred
+\index{North, line!star@star\phantomsection\label{idx:ns}}%
+\index{Polestar@Polestar\phantomsection\label{idx:p}, (\emph{see} \hyperref[idx:ns]{North star})}%
+years hence will be only half a degree from it. The period
+of this rotation is very long, about $25,000$ years, or $50.2''$
+each year. Ninety degrees from the ecliptic is the pole
+of the ecliptic about which the pole of the celestial equator
+rotates, and from which it is distant~$23\frac{1}{2}°$.
+
+As the axis rotates about the pole of the ecliptic, the
+point where the plane of the equator intersects the plane
+%% -----File: 286.png---Folio 287-------
+of the ecliptic, that is, the equinox, gradually shifts around
+\index{Ecliptic@Ecliptic \indexglossref{Ecliptic}}%
+westward. Since the vernal equinox is at a given point
+in the earth's orbit one year, and the next year is reached
+\index{Year}%
+a little ahead of where it was the year before, the term
+\emph{precession of the equinoxes} is appropriate. The sidereal
+\index{Sidereal, clock!year}%
+year (see p.~\pageref{page:132}) is the time required for the earth to
+make a complete revolution in its orbit. A solar or tropical
+year is the interval from one vernal equinox to the
+next vernal equinox, and since the equinoxes ``precede,''
+a tropical year ends about twenty minutes before the
+earth reaches the same point in its orbit a second time.
+
+\sloppy
+As is shown in the discussion of the earth's revolution
+(p.~\pageref{page:169}), the earth is in perihelion December~31, making
+the northern summer longer and cooler, day by day, than
+it would otherwise be, and the winter shorter and warmer.
+The traveling of the vernal equinox around the orbit,
+however, is gradually shifting the date of perihelion, so
+that in ages yet to come perihelion will be reached in July,
+and thus terrestrial climate is gradually changing. This
+perihelion point (and with it, aphelion) has a slight westward
+\index{Aphelion@Aphelion \indexglossref{Aphelion}}%
+motion of its own of $11.25''$ each year, making, with
+the addition of the precession of the equinoxes of~$50.2''$, a
+total shifting of the perihelion point (see ``\glossref{Apsides}'' in
+\index{Apsides@Apsides \indexglossref{Apsides}}%
+the Glossary) of~$1'~1.45''$. At this slow rate, $10,545$ years
+must pass before perihelion will be reached July~1. The
+amount of the ellipticity of the earth's orbit is gradually
+decreasing, so that by the time this shifting has taken
+place the orbit will be so nearly circular that there may be
+but slight climatic effects of this shift of perihelion. It
+may be of interest to note that some have reasoned that

+\AppendixSection{MATHEMATICAL TREATMENT OF TIDES}\nblabel{page:290}
+\index{Tides|(}%
+
+The explanation of the cause of tides in the \hyperref[chap:IX]{chapter}
+on that subject may be relied upon in every particular,
+although mathematical details are omitted. The mathematical
+treatment is difficult to make plain to those who
+have not studied higher mathematics and physics. Simplified
+as much as possible, it is as follows:
+
+Let it be borne in mind that to find the cause of tides
+we must find \emph{unbalanced forces which change their positions}.
+Surface gravity over the globe varies slightly in different
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}}%
+places, being less at the equator and greater toward the
+poles. As shown elsewhere, the force of gravity at the
+\index{Pole, celestial!terrestrial}%
+equator is less for two reasons:
+
+\textit{a.} Because of greater centrifugal force.
+\index{Centrifugal force@Centrifugal force \indexglossref{Centrifugal force}}%
+
+\textit{b.} Because of the oblateness of the earth.
+
+(\textit{a}) Centrifugal force being greater at the equator than
+elsewhere, there is an unbalanced force which must cause
+the waters to pile up to some extent in the equatorial
+region. If centrifugal force were sometimes greater at the
+equator and sometimes at the poles, there would be a corresponding
+shifting of the accumulated waters and we
+should have a tide---and it would be an immense one.
+But we know that this unbalanced force does not change
+its position, and hence it cannot produce a tide.
+
+(\textit{b}) Exactly the same course of reasoning applies to the
+unbalanced force of gravity at the equator due to its
+greater distance from the center of gravity. The position
+of this unbalanced force does not shift, and no tide results.
+
+Since the earth turns on its axis under the sun and
+moon, any unbalanced forces they may produce will necessarily
+shift as different portions of the earth are successively
+turned toward or from them. Our problem, then,
+%% -----File: 290.png---Folio 291-------
+is to find the cause and direction of the unbalanced forces
+produced by the moon or sun.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i290}{Fig.~114}
+
+In Figure~\figureref{i290}{114}, let $CA$~be the acceleration toward the
+\index{Acceleration@Acceleration \indexglossref{Acceleration}|(}%
+moon at~$C$, due to the moon's attraction. Let $BD$~be
+the acceleration at~$B$. Now $B$~is nearer the moon than~$C$,
+so $BD$~will be greater than~$CA$, since the attraction
+varies inversely as the square of the distance.
+
+From $B$ construct~$BE$ equal to~$CA$. Comparing forces
+$BE$ and~$BD$, the latter is greater. Completing the parallelogram,
+we have~$BFDE$. Now it is a simple demonstration
+in physics that if two forces act upon~$B$, one to~$F$ and
+the other to~$E$, the resultant of the two forces will be the
+diagonal~$BD$. Since $BE$ and~$BF$ combined result in~$BD$,
+it follows that $BF$~represents the unbalanced force at~$B$.
+
+At $B$, then, there is an unbalanced force as compared
+with~$C$ as represented by~$BF$. At~$B'$ the unbalanced
+force is represented by~$B'F'$. Note the \emph{pulling direction}
+in which these unbalanced forces are exerted.
+
+\begin{SmallText}
+\textsc{Note.}---For purposes of illustration the distance of the moon
+represented in the figures is greatly diminished. The distance~$CA$ is
+taken arbitrarily, likewise the distance~$BD$. If~$CA$ were longer,
+however, $BD$~would be still longer; and while giving $CA$ a different
+length, would modify the form of the diagram, the mathematical relations
+would remain unchanged. Because of the short distance given~$CM$
+in the figures, the difference between the $BF$ in Figure~\figureref{i290}{114} and $BF$
+in Figure~\figureref{i291-1}{115} is greatly exaggerated. The difference between the
+unbalanced or tide-producing force on the side toward the moon and
+that on the opposite side is approximately $.0467\,BF$ (Fig.~\figureref{i290}{114}).

+In Figure~\figureref{i291-1}{115}, $B$~is farther from the moon than~$C$, hence

+\index{Zodiac}%
+
+This belt in the celestial sphere is $16°$~wide with the
+ecliptic as the center. The width is purely arbitrary. It
+could have been wider or narrower just as well, but was
+adopted by the ancients because the sun, moon, and planets
+known to them were always seen within $8°$ of the pathway
+of the sun. We know now that several asteroids, as
+\index{Asteroids}%
+truly planets as the earth, are considerably farther from
+the ecliptic than~$8°$; indeed, Pallas is sometimes $34°$~from
+\index{Pallas}%
+the ecliptic---to the north of overhead to people of northern
+United States or central Europe.

+\Paragraph{Signs.} As the sun ``creeps backward'' in the center of
+the zodiac, one revolution each year, the ancients divided
+its pathway into twelve parts, one for each month. To
+each of these sections of thirty degrees ($360°÷12 = 30°$)
+names were assigned, all but one after animals, each one
+being considered appropriate as a ``sign'' of an annual
+recurrence (see p.~\pageref{page:117}). Aries seems commonly to have
+been taken as the first in the series, the beginning of
+spring. Even yet the astronomer counts the tropical year
+from the ``First point of Aries,'' the moment the center
+of the sun crosses the celestial equator on its journey
+northward.
+
+As explained in the discussion of the precession of the
+equinoxes (p.~\pageref{page:286}), the point in the celestial equator where
+the center of the sun crosses it shifts westward one degree
+in about seventy years. In ancient days the First point of
+Aries was in the constellation of that name but now it is
+in the constellation to the west, Pisces. The sign Aries
+\index{Pisces@Pisces (p\u{\i}s$'$s\={e}z)}%
+\index{Aries@Aries (\u{a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\={e}z), constellation!first point of}%
+begins with the First point of Aries, and thus with the westward
+travel of this point all the signs have moved back
+into a constellation of a different name. Another difference
+%% -----File: 293.png---Folio 294-------
+between the signs and the constellations of the zodiac
+\index{Signs of zodiac}%
+\index{Celestial equator}%
+\index{Equator@Equator \indexglossref{Equator}!celestial}%
+is that the star clusters are of unequal length, some more
+than~$30°$ and some less, whereas the signs are of uniform
+length. The positions and widths of the signs and constellations
+with the date when the sun enters each are
+\index{Sun!apparent motions of}%
+shown in Figure~\figureref{i293}{117}.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Aries,} the first sign, was named after the ram, probably
+\index{Aries@Aries (\u{a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\={e}z), constellation}%
+because to the ancient Chaldeans, where the name seems
+\index{Chaldeans}%
+to have originated, this was the month of sacrifice. The
+sun is in Aries from March~21 until April~20. It is represented
+%% -----File: 294.png---Folio 295-------
+by a small picture of a ram~\includegraphicssymbol{i294-1} or by a hieroglyphic~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-2}).
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Taurus,} the second sign~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-3}), was dedicated to the
+\index{Taurus}%
+bull. In ancient times this was the first of the signs,
+the vernal equinox being at the beginning of this sign.
+According to very ancient mythology it was the bull that
+drew the sun along its ``furrow'' in the sky. There
+are, however, many other theories as to the origin of the
+designation. The sun is in Taurus from April~20 until
+May~21.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Gemini,} the third sign, signifies twins~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-4}) and gets its
+\index{Gemini}%
+name from two bright stars, Castor and Pollux, which used
+to be in this sign, but are now in the sign Cancer. The
+sun is in Gemini from May~21 until June~22.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Cancer,} the fourth sign~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-5}), was named after the
+\index{Cancer, constellation of!sign of zodiac}%
+crab, probably from the fact that when in this sign the
+sun retreats back again, crablike, toward the south. The
+sun is in Cancer from June~22 until July~23.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Leo,} signifying lion, is the fifth sign~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-6}) and seems
+\index{Leo}%
+to have been adopted because the lion usually was used
+as a symbol for fire, and when the sun was in Leo the
+hottest weather occurred. The sun is in this sign from
+July~23 until August~23.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Virgo,} the virgin~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-7}), refers to the Chaldean myth of
+\index{Virgo}%
+the descent of Ishtar into hades in search of her husband.
+The sun is in Virgo from August~23 until September~23.
+
+The foregoing are the summer signs and, consequently,
+the corresponding constellations are our winter constellations.
+It must be remembered that the sign is always
+about $30°$ (the extreme length of the ``Dipper'') to the
+\index{Big Dipper}%
+west of the constellation of the same name.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Libra,} the balances~(\includegraphicssymbol{i294-8}), appropriately got its name
+\index{Libra@Libra (li$'$bra)}%
+from the fact that the autumnal equinox, or equal balancing
+%% -----File: 295.png---Folio 296-------
+of day and night, occurred when the sun was in the
+constellation thus named the Balances. The sun is now
+in Libra from September~23 until October~24.
+\index{Libra@Libra (li$'$bra)}%
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Scorpio} is the eighth sign~(\includegraphicssymbol{i295-1}). The scorpion was a
+\index{Scorpio}%
+symbol of darkness, and was probably used to represent
+the shortening of days and lengthening of nights. The
+sun is now in Scorpio from October~24 until November~23.
+
+\begin{wrapfigure}[2]{r}{0pt}%

+\ParagraphNoSpace{Sagittarius,} meaning an archer or bowman, is
+\index{Sagittarius@Sagittarius (s\u{a}g\;\u{\i}t\;t\={a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\u{u}s)}%
+sometimes represented as a Centaur with a
+bow and arrow. The sun is in this sign from November~23
+until December~22.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Capricorn,} signifying goat, is often represented as having
+\index{Capricorn, constellation of!sign of zodiac}%
+the tail of a fish~(\includegraphicssymbol{i295-3}). It probably has its origin
+as the mythological nurse of the young solar god. The
+sun is in Capricorn from December~22 until January~20.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Aquarius,} the water-bearer~(\includegraphicssymbol{i295-4}), is the eleventh sign
+\index{Aquarius@Aquarius (ä\;kw\={a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\u{u}s)}%
+and probably has a meteorological origin, being associated
+as the cause of the winter rains of Mediterranean countries.
+The sun is in this sign from January~20 until
+February~19.
+
+\ParagraphNoSpace{Pisces} is the last of the twelve signs. In accordance
+\index{Pisces@Pisces (p\u{\i}s$'$s\={e}z)}%
+with the meaning of the term, it is represented as two
+fishes~(\includegraphicssymbol{i295-5}). Its significance was probably the same as
+the water-bearer. The sun is in this sign from February~19
+until the vernal equinox, March~21, when it has completed
+the ``labors'' of its circuit, only to begin over
+again.
+
+The twelve signs of the ancient Chinese zodiac were
+\index{Chinese calendar!zodiac}%
+dedicated to a quite different set of animals; being, in
+order, the Rat, the Ox, the Tiger, the Hare, the Dragon,
+the Serpent, the Horse, the Sheep, the Monkey, the Hen,
+the Dog, and the Pig. The Egyptians adopted with a few

+
+\Section{Myths and Superstitions as to the Relation of
+the Zodiac to the Earth}
+\index{Myths and superstitions of the zodiac}%
+
+When one looks at the wonders of the heavens it does
+not seem at all strange that in the early dawn of history,
+ignorance and superstition should clothe the mysterious
+luminaries of the sky with occult influences upon the
+earth, the weather, and upon human affairs. The ancients,
+observing the apparent fixity of all the stars excepting the
+seven changing ones of the zodiac---the sun, moon, and
+five planets known to them---endowed this belt and its
+seven presiding deities with special guardianship of the
+earth, giving us seasons, with varying length of day and
+change of weather; bringing forth at its will the sprouting
+of plants and fruitage and harvest in their season; counting
+off inevitably the years that span human life; bringing
+days of prosperity to some and of adversity to others;
+and marking the wars and struggles, the growth and
+decay of nations. With such a background of belief, at
+once their science and their religion, it is not strange that
+when a child was born the parents hastened to the astrologer
+to learn what planet or star was in the ascendancy,
+that is, most prominent during the night, and thus learn
+in advance what his destiny would be as determined from
+the character of the star that would rule his life.
+
+The moon in its monthly path around the earth must
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+pass through the twelve signs of the zodiac in $29\frac{1}{2}$~days or
+spend about $2\frac{1}{2}$~days to each sign. During the blight of
+intelligence of the dark ages, some mediæval astrologer
+conceived the simple method of subdividing the human
+body into twelve parts to correspond to the twelve constellations
+of the zodiac. Beginning with the sign Aries,
+\index{Aries@Aries (\u{a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\={e}z), constellation!sign of zodiac}%
+he dedicated that to the head, the neck he assigned to
+%% -----File: 297.png---Folio 298-------
+Taurus, the arms were given over to Gemini, the stars of
+\index{Gemini}%
+\index{Taurus}%
+Cancer were to rule the breast, the heart was presided
+over by Leo, and so on down to Pisces which was to rule
+\index{Leo}%
+the feet. Now anyone who was born when the moon was in
+Aries would be strong in the head, intellectual; if in Taurus,
+\index{Aries@Aries (\u{a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\={e}z), constellation!sign of zodiac}%
+he would be strong in the neck and self-willed, etc. Moreover,
+since the moon makes a circuit of the signs of the
+zodiac in a month, according to his simple scheme when
+the moon is in Aries the head is especially affected; then
+diseases of the head rage (or is it then that the head
+is stronger to resist disease?), and during the next few days
+when the moon is in Taurus, beware of affections of the
+\index{Moon or satellite@Moon or satellite\phantomsection\label{idx:m}}%
+neck, and so on down the list. The very simplicity of this
+scheme and ease by which it could be remembered led to
+its speedy adoption by the masses who from time immemorial
+have sought explanations of various phenomena
+by reference to celestial bodies.
+
+Now there is no astronomical or geographical necessity
+\index{Myths and superstitions of the zodiac}%
+for considering Aries as the first sign of the zodiac. Our
+year begins practically with the advent of the sun into
+Capricorn---the beginning of the year was made January~1
+for this very purpose. The moon is not in any peculiar
+position in relation to the earth March~21 any more than
+it is December~23. If when the calendar was revised the
+numbering of the signs of the zodiac had been changed
+also, then Capricorn, the divinities of which now rule the
+\index{Capricorn, constellation of!sign of zodiac}%
+\emph{knees}, would have been made to rule the \emph{head}, and the
+whole artificial scheme would have been changed! Besides,
+the sign Capricorn does not include the \emph{constellation} Capricorn,
+so with the precession of the equinoxes the subtle
+influences once assigned to the heavenly bodies of one
+constellation have been shifted to an entirely different set
+of stars! The association of storms with the sun's crossing
+%% -----File: 298.png---Folio 299-------
+the equinox and with the angle the cusps of the moon
+show to the observer (a purely geometric position varying
+with the position of the observer) is in the same class as

+This is not especially
+difficult and may be accomplished
+in several
+ways. A simple
+plan is shown in Figure~\figureref{i299}{118}. Angle~$BAC$ should be the
+co-latitude of the place, that is, the latitude subtracted
+from~$90°$, though this is not at all essential. The hour
+lines may be marked off according to two systems, for
+standard time or for local time.
+
+\fussy
+\Paragraph{Standard Time Dial.} If you wish your dial to indicate
+clock time as correctly as possible, it will be necessary to
+consult the analemma or an almanac to ascertain the equation
+of time when the hour lines are drawn. Since the sun
+is neither fast nor slow April~14, June~15, September~1, or
+December~25, those are the easiest days on which to lay
+off the hours. On one of those dates you can lay them off
+according to a reliable timepiece.
+%% -----File: 300.png---Folio 301-------
+
+If you mark the hour lines at any other date; ascertain
+the equation of time (see p.~\pageref{fig:i126}) and make allowances
+accordingly. Suppose the date is October~27. The analemma
+\index{Analemma@Analemma \indexglossref{Analemma}, description of!uses of}%
+shows the sun to be $16$~minutes fast. You should
+mark the hour lines that many minutes before the hour as
+indicated by your timepiece, that is, the noon line when
+your watch says 11:44~o'clock, the 1~o'clock line when
+the watch indicates 12:44,~etc. If the equation is slow,
+say five minutes, add that time to your clock time, marking
+the noon line when your watch indicates 12:05, the
+next hour line at 1:05,~etc. It is well to begin at the hour
+for solar noon, at that time placing the board so that the
+sun's shadow is on the XII~mark and after marking off the
+afternoon hours measure from the XII~mark westward
+corresponding distances for the forenoon. Unless you
+chance to live upon the meridian which gives standard
+time to the belt in which you are, the noon line will be
+somewhat to the east or west of north.
+
+This sundial will record the apparent solar time of the
+meridian upon which the clock time is based. The difference
+in the time indicated by the sundial and your watch
+at any time is the equation of time. Test the accuracy
+of your sundial by noticing the time by your watch when
+the sundial indicates noon and comparing this difference
+with the equation of time for that day. If your sundial
+is accurate, you can set your watch any clear day by looking
+up the equation of time and making allowances accordingly.
+Thus the analemma shows that on May~28 the sun
+is three minutes fast. When the sundial indicates noon
+you know it is three minutes before twelve by the clock.
+
+\Paragraph{Local Time Dial.} To mark the hour lines which show
+the local mean solar time (see p.~\pageref{page:64}), set the XII~hour
+line due north. Note accurately the clock time when the
+%% -----File: 301.png---Folio 302-------
+shadow is north. One hour later mark the shadow line
+for the I~hour line, two hours later mark the II~hour line,
+etc. This dial will indicate the apparent solar time of
+your meridian. You can set your watch by it by first
+\index{Meridian!standard time}%
+converting it into mean solar time and then into standard
+time. (This is explained on p.~\pageref{page:129}) %[**TN: 'pp. 128, 129' in original text]

+It should be noted that these two sundials are exactly
+the same for persons who use local time, or, living on the

+\index{What keeps the members of the solar system in their orbits?|(}%
+\index{Orbit, of earth|(}%
+\index{Projectiles|(}%
+When a body is thrown in a direction parallel to the
+horizon, as the bullet from a level gun, it is acted upon by
+two forces:
+
+(\textit{a}) The projectile force of the gun,~$AB$. (Fig.~\figureref{i303}{121}.)
+
+(\textit{b}) The attractive force of the earth,~$AC$.
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}}%
+
+The course it will actually take from point~$A$ is the
+diagonal~$AA'$. When it reaches~$A'$ the force~$AB$ still
+acts (not considering the friction of the air), impelling it
+in the line~$A'B'$. Gravity continues to pull it in the line~$A'C'$,
+and the projectile takes the diagonal direction~$A'A''$
+and makes the curve (not a broken line as in the figure)
+$AA'A''$. It is obvious from this diagram that if the impelling
+force be sufficiently great, line~$AB$ will be so long in
+relation to line~$AC$ that the bullet will be drawn to the
+earth just enough to keep it at the same distance from
+the surface as that of its starting point.
+
+\includegraphicsmid{i303}{Fig.~121}
+
+The amount of such a projectile force near the surface
+of the earth at the equator as would thus keep an object
+%% -----File: 304.png---Folio 305-------
+at an unvarying distance from the earth is $26,100$ feet per
+second. Fired in a horizontal direction from a tower (not
+allowing for the friction of the air) such a bullet would
+forever circle around the earth. Dividing the circumference
+of the earth (in feet) by this number we find that
+such a bullet would return to its starting point in about
+$5,000$ seconds, or $1$~h.\ $23$~m., making many revolutions
+around the earth during one day. Since our greatest guns,
+throwing a ton of steel a distance of twenty-one miles,
+give their projectiles a speed of only about $2,600$ feet
+per second, it will be seen that the rate we have given
+is a terrific one. If this speed were increased to $37,000$ feet
+per second, the bullet would never return to the earth.
+\nblabel{page:305}One is tempted here to digress and demonstrate the utter
+impossibility of human beings even ``making a trip to the
+moon,'' to say nothing of one to a much more distant
+planet. The terrific force with which we should have to
+be hurled to get away from the earth, fourteen times the
+speed of the swiftest cannon ball, is in itself an insuperable
+difficulty. Besides this, there would have to be the most
+exact calculation of the force and direction, allowing for
+(\textit{a})~the curve given a projectile by gravity, (\textit{b})~the centrifugal
+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}}%
+%% -----File: 305.png---Folio 306-------
+force of rotation, (\textit{c})~the revolution of the earth,
+(\textit{d})~the revolution of the moon, (\textit{e})~the friction of the air,
+a variable quantity, impossible of calculation with absolute
+accuracy, (\textit{f})~the inevitable swerving in the air by
+reason of its currents and varying density, and (\textit{g})~the
+influence on the course by the attraction of the sun and
+planets. In addition to these mathematical calculations
+\index{Planets}%
+as to direction and projectile force, there would be the
+problem of (\textit{h})~supply of air, (\textit{i})~air pressure, to which our
+bodies through the evolution of ages have become adapted,
+(\textit{j})~the momentum with which we would strike into the
+moon if we did ``aim'' right,~etc.

+
+Returning to our original problem, we may notice that
+if the bullet were fired horizontally at a distance of $4,000$
+miles from the surface of the earth, the pull of gravity would
+be only one fourth as great (second law of gravitation),
+and the projectile would not need to take so terrific a speed
+to revolve around the earth. As we noticed in the discussion
+of Mars (see p.~\pageref{page:255}), the satellite Phobos is so near
+\index{Phobos@Phobos (f\={o}$'$b\u{u}s)}%
+\index{Mars}%
+its primary, $1,600$ miles from the surface, that it revolves
+at just about the rate of a cannon ball, making about three
+revolutions while the planet rotates once.
+
+While allusion has been made only to a bullet or a moon,
+in noticing the application of the law of projectiles, the
+\index{Projectiles|)}%
+principle applies equally to the planets. Governed by the
+law here illustrated, a planet will revolve about its primary
+in an orbit varying from a circle to an elongated ellipse.

+\Gloss{Analemma}, a scale showing (\textit{a})~the mean equation of time and (\textit{b})~the
+mean declination of the sun for each day of the year.
+
+\Gloss{Aphelion} (\u a f\=e$'$ li on), the point in a planet's orbit which is farthest
+from the sun.
+
+\Gloss{Apogee} (\u ap$'$ o je), the point farthest from the earth in any orbit;
+usually applied to the point in the moon's orbit farthest from the

+\Gloss{Apparent solar day}, see \glossref{Day}.
+
+\Gloss{Apparent (solar) time}, see \glossref{Time}.
+
+\Gloss{Apsides} (\u ap$'$ si d\=ez), line of, a line connecting perihelion and aphelion
+of a planet's orbit, or perigee and apogee of a moon's orbit.
+Apsides is plural for apsis, which means the point in an orbit
+nearest to the primary or farthest from it.
+
+\Gloss{Arc}, part of a circle; in geography, part of the circumference of a
+circle.
+
+\Gloss{Asteroids}, very small planets. A large number of asteroids revolve
+\index{Asteroids}%
+around the sun between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.
+
+\Gloss{Autumnal equinox}, see \glossref{Equinox}.
+
+\Gloss{Axis}, the line about which an object rotates.
+\index{Axis, changes in position of!defined}%
+
+\Gloss{Azimuth} (\u az$'$ {\u \i} m\u uth) the angular distance of an object from the celestial
+\index{Azimuth}%
+meridian of the place of the observer to the celestial meridian of
+the object. The azimuth of the sun is the distance in degrees from
+its point of rising or setting to a south point on the horizon.
+
+\Gloss{Celestial sphere}, the apparent hollow sphere in which the sun, moon,
+planets, comets, and stars seem to be located.
+\index{Celestial latitude!sphere}%
+
+\Gloss{Center of gravity} the point about which a body (or group of
+bodies) balances.
+
+\Gloss{Centrifugal force} (sen trif$'$ u gal), a force tending away from a center.
+
+\Gloss{Centripetal force} (sen trip$'$ e tal), a force tending toward a center.
+
+\Gloss{Colures} (k\=o l\=urz$'$), the four principal meridians of the celestial sphere,
+two passing through the equinoxes and two through the solstices.
+
+\Gloss{Conjunction}, see \glossref{Syzygy}.
+%% -----File: 314.png---Folio 315-------
+
+\Gloss{Copernican system} (k\=o per$'$ ni can), the theory of the solar system
+advanced by Copernicus (1473--1543) that the sun is the center of
+the solar system, the planets rotating on their axes and revolving
+around the sun. See \glossref[Heliocentric]{Heliocentric theory}.
+
+\Gloss{Co-tidal lines}, lines passing through places that have high tide at the
+\index{Co-tidal lines}%
+same time.
+
+\Gloss{Day}.\\
+\Subgloss{Astronomical day}, a period equal to a mean solar day, reckoned
+\index{Astronomical day}%
+from noon and divided into twenty-four hours, usually numbered
+from one to twenty-four.
+
+\Subgloss{Civil day}, the same as an astronomical day excepting that it is
+\index{Civil day}%
+reckoned from midnight. It is also divided into twenty-four
+hours, usually numbered in two series, from one to twelve.
+
+\Subgloss{Sidereal day}, the interval between two successive passages of a
+\index{Sidereal, clock!day}%
+celestial meridian over a given terrestrial meridian. The zero
+meridian from which the sidereal day is reckoned is the one
+passing through the First point of Aries. The length of the
+sidereal day is $23$~h.\ $56$~m.\ $4.09$~s. The sidereal day is divided
+into twenty-four hours, each shorter than those of the civil or
+astronomical day; they are numbered from one to twenty-four.
+
+\Subgloss{Solar day}. \\
+\textit{Apparent solar day}, the interval between two successive passages
+of the sun's center over the meridian of a place; that is, from
+sun noon to the next sun noon; this varies in length from $23$~h.\ $59$~m.\ $38.8$~s.\
+to $24$~h.\ $0$~m.\ $30$~s. \\
+\textit{Mean solar day}, the average interval between successive passages
+of the sun's center over the meridian of a place; that is, the average
+of the lengths of all the solar days of the year; this average
+is $24$~h.\ as we commonly reckon civil or clock time.
+
+\Gloss{Declination} is the distance in degrees of a celestial body from the
+celestial equator. Declination in the celestial sphere corresponds
+to latitude on the earth.
+
+\Gloss{Eccentricity} (\u ek s\u en tr{\u \i}s$'$ {\u \i} ty), see \glossref{Ellipse}.
+
+\Gloss{Ecliptic} (\=e kl{\u \i}p$'$ t{\u \i}k), the path of the center of the sun in its apparent
+orbit in the celestial sphere. A great circle of the celestial sphere
+whose plane forms an angle of~$23°~27'$ with the plane of the equator.
+This inclination of the plane of the ecliptic to the plane of the
+equator is called the \emph{obliquity} of the ecliptic. The points~$90°$
+from the ecliptic are called the \emph{poles} of the ecliptic. Celestial
+latitude is measured from the ecliptic.
+\index{Obliquity of the ecliptic@Obliquity of the ecliptic\phantomsection\label{idx:ooe}}%
+
+\Gloss{Ellipse}, a plane figure bounded by a curved line, every point of which
+is at such distances from two points within called the foci (pronounced
+f\=o$'$ s\=\i; singular, focus) that the sum of the distances is
+constant.
+%% -----File: 315.png---Folio 316-------
+
+\Subgloss{Eccentricity} (\u{e}k s\u{e}n tris$'$ \u{\i} ty) is the fraction obtained by dividing
+the distance of a focus to the center of the major axis by one half
+the major axis.
+
+\Subgloss{Oblateness} or ellipticity is the deviation of an ellipse from a circle
+and is the fraction obtained by dividing the difference between
+the major and minor axes by the major axis.
+
+\Gloss{Ellipticity} (\u{e}l l\u{\i}p tis$'$ \u{\i} ty), see \glossref{Ellipse}.
+
+\Gloss{Equation of time} (\={e} kw\={a}$'$ shun), the difference between apparent
+solar time, or time as actually indicated by the sun, and the mean
+solar time, or the average time indicated by the sun. It is usually
+indicated by the minus sign when the apparent sun is faster than
+the mean sun and with the plus sign when the apparent time is
+slow. The apparent sun time combined with the equation of time
+gives the mean time; \textit{e.g.}, by the apparent sun it is $10$~h.\ $30$~m., the
+equation is $- 2$~m.\ (sun fast $2$~m.), combined we get $10$~h.\ $28$~m.,
+the mean sun time. See \glossref{Day}.
+
+\Gloss{Equator} (\={e} kw\={a}$'$ ter), when not otherwise qualified means terrestrial
+equator.
+
+\Subgloss{Celestial equator}, the great circle of the celestial sphere in the
+\index{Celestial equator}%
+plane of the earth's equator. Declination is measured from the
+celestial equator.
+
+\Subgloss{Terrestrial equator}, the great circle of the earth $90°$~from the
+poles or ends of the axis of rotation. Latitude is measured from
+the equator.
+
+\Gloss{Equinox}, one of the two points where the ecliptic intersects the celestial
+equator. Also the time when the sun is at this point.
+
+\Subgloss{Autumnal equinox}, the equinox which the sun reaches in autumn.
+Also the time when the sun is at that point, September~23.
+
+\Subgloss{Vernal equinox}, the equinox which the sun reaches in spring.
+This point is called the First point of Aries, since that sign of
+\index{Aries@Aries (\u{a}$'$r\u{\i}\;\={e}z), constellation!first point of}%
+the zodiac begins with this point, the sign extending eastward
+from it~$30°$. The celestial meridian (see \glossref[Colures]{Colure}) passing through %[**TN 'colure' in original]
+this point is the zero meridian of the celestial sphere, from which
+celestial longitude is reckoned. The vernal equinox is also the
+time when the sun is at this point, about March~21, the beginning
+of the astronomical year. See \glossref{Year}.
+
+\Gloss{Geocentric} (j\={e} \={o} s\u{e}n$'$ trik; from \textit{ge}, earth; \textit{centrum}, center),

+\index{Gravity@Gravity\phantomsection\label{idx:g}}%
+matter rotating with the earth and (\emph{b})~the centrifugal force due to
+its rotation. The latter force~(\emph{b}) is so small that it is usually
+ignored and we commonly speak of gravity as the earth's attraction
+for an object. Gravity is still more accurately defined in the
+Appendix.
+
+\Gloss{Heliocentric} (h\={e} l\u{\i} \={o} s\u{e}n$'$\DPtypo{}{\ }trik; from \emph{helios}, sun; \emph{centrum}, center).
+
+\Subgloss{Theory} of the solar system assumes the sun to be at the center of
+the solar system; also called the Copernican system (see \glossref{Copernican
+system}).

+
+\Gloss{Horizon} (h\={o} r\={\i}$'$ zon), the great circle of the celestial sphere cut by a
+plane passing through the eye of the observer at right angles to
+the plumb line.
+
+\Subgloss{Dip of horizon}. If the eye is above the surface, the curvature of
+the earth makes it possible to see beyond the true horizon. The
+angle formed, because of the curvature of the earth, between the
+true horizon and the visible horizon is called the \emph{dip} of the
+horizon.
+
+\Subgloss{Visible horizon}, the place where the earth and sky seem to meet.
+At sea if the eye is near the surface of the water the true horizon
+and the visible horizon are the same, since water levels and forms
+a right angle to the plumb line.
+
+\Gloss{Hour-circles}, great circles of the celestial sphere extending from pole
+to pole, so called because they are usually drawn every $15°$ or one
+for each of the twenty-four hours of the day. While hour-circles
+correspond to meridians on the earth, celestial longitude (see
+\glossref{Longitude}) is not reckoned from them as they change with the
+rotation of the earth.
+
+\Gloss{Latitude}, when not otherwise qualified, geographical latitude is
+meant.
+
+\Subgloss{Astronomical latitude}, the distance in degrees between the
+plumb line at a given point on the earth and the plane of the
+equator.
+
+\Subgloss{Celestial latitude}, the distance in degrees between a celestial
+body and the ecliptic.

+
+\Gloss{Longitude}.\\
+\Subgloss{Celestial longitude}, the distance in degrees of a celestial body
+\index{Celestial latitude!longitude}%

+\index{Meridian!celestial}%
+longitude is reckoned, is the one passing through the First point
+of Aries (see \glossref{Equinox}).
+
+\Subgloss{Terrestrial longitude}, the distance in degrees of a point on the
+earth from some meridian, called the prime meridian.
+
+\Gloss{Mass}, the amount of matter in a body, regardless of its volume or

+\Gloss{Mean solar time}, see \glossref{Time}.
+
+\Gloss{Meridian}.\\

+earth in relation to the stars; one exact revolution of the moon
+about the earth; it varies about three hours in length but averages

+
+\Subgloss{Synodic month}, the time between two successive new moons or
+full moons. This is what is commonly meant by the lunar
+month, reckoned from new moon to new moon; its length varies
+about thirteen hours but averages $29.53059$~d. There are several
+other kinds of lunar months important in astronomical
+calculations.
+
+\Subgloss{Solar month}, the time occupied by the sun in passing through a

+
+\Gloss{Neap tides}, see \hyperref[page:290]{Tides}.
+
+\Gloss{Nutation}, a small periodic elliptical motion of the earth's axis, due
+\index{Nutation of poles}%
+principally to the fact that the plane of the moon's orbit is not the
+same as the plane of the ecliptic, so that when the moon is on one
+%% -----File: 318.png---Folio 319-------
+side of the plane of the ecliptic there is a tilting tendency given the
+bulging equatorial region. The inclination of the earth's axis, or
+the obliquity of the ecliptic, is thus slightly changed through a

+
+\Gloss{Perigee} (p\u{e}r$'$ \u{\i} je), the point in the orbit of the moon which is nearest

+
+\Gloss{Radius Vector}, a line from the focus of an ellipse to a point in the
+\index{Radius vector}%

+vector of the planet's orbit.
+
+\Gloss{Refraction of light}, in general, the change in direction of a ray of
+\index{Refraction of light}%
+light when it enters obliquely a medium of different density. As
+%% -----File: 319.png---Folio 320-------
+used in astronomy and in this work, refraction is the change in
+direction of a ray of light from a celestial body as it enters the

+the winter solstice.
+
+\Gloss{Spheroid} (sf\={e}$'$ roid), a body nearly spherical in form, usually referring
+\index{Spheroid}%
+to the mathematical form produced by rotating an ellipse about
+one of its axes; called also an ellipsoid or spheroid of revolution
+(in this book, a spheroid of rotation).

+\Subgloss{Astronomical time}, the mean solar time reckoned by hours numbered
+up to twenty-four, beginning with mean solar noon (see
+\glossref[Day, Astronomical day]{Day, astronomical}).
+
+\Subgloss{Civil time}, legally accepted time; usually the same as astronomical
+time except that it is reckoned from midnight. It is commonly
+numbered in two series of twelve hours each day, from midnight
+%% -----File: 320.png---Folio 321-------
+and from noon, and is based upon a meridian prescribed by law
+or accepted as legal (see \glossref[Day, Civil day]{Day, civil}).
+
+\Subgloss{Equation of time}, see \glossref{Equation of time}.
+
+\Subgloss{Sidereal time}, the time as determined from the apparent rotation
+of the celestial sphere and reckoned from the passage of the
+vernal equinox over a given place. It is reckoned in sidereal
+days (see \glossref[Day, Sidereal day]{Day, sidereal}).
+
+\Subgloss{Solar time} is either apparent solar time or mean solar time,
+reckoned from the mean or average position of the sun (see
+\glossref[Day, Solar day]{Day, solar day}).
+
+\Subgloss{Standard time}, the civil time that is adopted, either by law or

+tropic of Cancer and the southern one the tropic of Capricorn,
+from the signs of the zodiac in which the sun is when it reaches
+the tropics.
+
+\Subgloss{Geographical}, the two parallels corresponding to the astronomical
+tropics, and called by the same names.
+
+\Gloss{Vernal equinox}, see \glossref[Equinox, Vernal equinox]{Equinox, vernal}.

+$13$~m., $48$~s.
+
+\Subgloss{Civil year}, the year adopted by law, reckoned by all Christian
+countries to begin January~1st. The civil year adopted by
+Protestants and Roman Catholics is almost exactly the true
+length of the tropical year, $365.2422$~d., and that adopted by Greek
+Catholics is $365.25$~d. The civil year of non-Christian countries
+varies as to time of beginning and length, thus the Turkish civil
+year has $354$~d.
+
+\Subgloss{Lunar year}, the period of twelve lunar synodical months (twelve
+new moons); length, $354$~d.
+
+\Subgloss{Sidereal year}, the time of the earth's revolution around the sun

+\Subgloss{Tropical year}, the period occupied by the sun in passing from one
+tropic or one equinox to the same again, having a mean length of
+$365$~d.\ $5$~h.\ $48$~m.\ $45.51$~s.\ or $365.2422$~d. A tropical year is shorter
+than a sidereal year because of the precession of the equinoxes.
+
+\Gloss{Zenith} (z\={e}$'$ n\u{\i}th), the point of the celestial sphere directly overhead;
+$180°$ from the nadir.
+
+\Gloss{Zodiac} (z\={o}$'$ d\u{\i} ak), an imaginary belt of the celestial sphere extending
+\index{Zodiac}%
+about eight degrees on each side of the ecliptic. It is divided into
+twelve equal parts ($30°$ each) called signs, each sign being somewhat
+to the west of a constellation of the same name. The ecliptic being
+the central line of the zodiac, the sun is always in the center of it,
+apparently traveling eastward through it, about a month in each
+sign. The moon being only about $5°$ from the ecliptic is always in
+the zodiac, traveling eastward through its signs about $13°$ a day.

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+

+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER

+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at http://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+http://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at http://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+ Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+ Chief Executive and Director
+ gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit http://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations.
+To donate, please visit: http://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ http://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
