lions of some OF the facts concerning tae
sun: ,o
re enabled to indicate at once the relation
az the sun to us in magnitude ana distance.
If This earth were represented by globe
one inch in diameter, then the suns globe
,tould be represented by an orb three
, ards in diameter. If the suns globe IN
;nrn we're represented by globe one
inch in diameter, then the distance would
lie represented by three yards our
earth a globe one inch IN diameter, 'he
sun three wards; the sun a globe one inch
in diameter, the distance three yards.
Now LET us consider what that enormous
distance means. An Armstrong gun tires

A bullet fred at that rate, and maintaining

would reach the sun half year later.
In other words, those beings, those men
who worshipped the sun and raised theii
voices in prayer to him, II their voices
could have he heard, and there was al
atmosphere, medium of intercommunlca
ton by which the sound of their voices

that infant must grow to the three'scoI
