CHANGES m THE DAYS LENGTH,
Result OF the investigation by Professor
Woodward OF Columbia.

Prof r. s. Woodward Of Columbia uni
yerslty has just completed an investiga'
tlon into certain causes OF changes In the
length Of the day. Astronomers have long
held that the time Of the earth's rotation
is not invanable. Its loss Of heat by radi-
alton must eventually tend to shorten the
day, because OF the shrlnkage In the
earth's diameter, and on the other hand
the deposit Of meteorlc matter on The
earth's surface must tend 10 lengthen the
day. Prof Woodward finds that from the
FIRST cause The days length has not cbaeg-
ed 10 ten million years. nor win it change
