YOU WALK VERY FAST.
5000 Miles I'm Hour About YcuI CsunI
Chit.


Have you ever thought of the dis
lance you travel while you are out for
an hours stroll? Possibly you walk
three miles an hour, but that does not
represent the distance you travel. The
earth turns on its axis every twenty
four hours. In round figures call the
earths circumference 1900 miles. and
yOu must have Travelled during your
hours stroll Il thousand miles in the
aXial turn of the earth. But this Is
not all. The earth makes a journey
round the sun every year. Put the
distance Of our planet from the sun at
100000 miles. The diameter Is
therefore 1Si,O00.000 miles, and the
circumference described by the earth
$1,000 900 miles. In other words, the
earth travels around the sun each day
1,5Si,00 miles, and every hour-for In
stance, the hour during which you took
your walk--the earth moved through
$4,000 miles So adding your three
miles Of leg travel to the hours axlal
movement OF the earth. this to the
carth's Orbital journey and that again
to the carth's excursion with the sun.
and yOn will find you have Travelled
within the hour $500 miles.
