All the light stations of the United
States are grouped in Is inspection
districts, to each OF which is assign
ed an army officer as engineer and
an officer of the navy as inspector.
Eight of these districts are allotted
to the Atlantic and gulf coasts; the
ninth, tenth and eleventh cover the
great lakes; the twelfth and thir-
teenth extend from southern Cali
fornia to Alaska, while the remain
ing three embrace all navigaf' . wa
tiers of the Mississippi valley, on
which are displayed some l, 400 stake
or post lights. There are about $50
light stations on the Pacific coast,
about 265 on the great lakes and
about $50 in the eastern districts, or
between 1900 and 2,700 in all. 1t is
impossible to state the exact num-
Der, as new stations are constantly
being established Of all these 10
oldest is Boston light, on Little
Brewster island, in Boston harbor,
which was established in 1916 and
last rebuilt in 1850. The next Oldest

Nantucket harbor, which was estab-
lished in 1916 and last rebuilt in
1856; while the third in point of
age is the Gurnot off Plymouth, es-
tablished in 1769.-kirk Munroe in
