MYSTERY
OF EGYPT'S
PYRAMIDS
CheOpS a Compendium of knowledge
of Early Egyptians

| Or all numbers the one held in
lowest esteem in either folklore. nro-
verb or popular parlance the num-
Der D. Except for its being repre-
sonted In the Druid's foot-symbol
OF witchcraft-which has FIVE points.
1t is rarely mentioned. 1T has been
the numerie stepchild, the Cinder-
ella among numbers, but has now.
at last, come into its full share of
recognition through the recent dis
coveries of a civil engineer.
He found that in the construction
of the pyramid of Cheops number 5
plays a most important, myterious
part, which cannot possibly have
been the result of mere fortuitous
chance. In fact, the preservation of
the venerable old relic of civiliza-
tion of more than 1000 years ago is
due In great measure, the engineer
says, to the influence of this number.
Despite its artistic simplicity, the
pyramid of Cheops is undoubtedly
one of the most complicated edlfices
OF all times. 1t is. In fact. COM
plete compendium of all the wonder
full mathematical and astronomical
knowledge OF the early Egyptians.
II is a testimonial not only Of the
devotion of a great people who de-
signed II as a lasting monument to
their beloved monarch, Cheops, but
also the high degree of science to
which they had attained.
The height of the pyramid Is in
a ratio of to 3.14156 to It's circum-
ference. This is the so-called "Lu-
dolf proportion" which representa-
the relation between the diameter
and the circumference as well as the
area of the circle.
The circumference is 3.14159
times as great as the diameter; the
area 3.14159 times the square of
the radius.
II the length of the sides is dlvid-
ed into as many parts as there are
days in the year. each division will
be a pyramid-meter (about a yard)
One OF these pyramld-meters is the
twenty-milllonth part OF the axis of
the earth. It's length Is twenty-five
pyramid inches.
Multiply this number by 1,000,-
000,000 and you have the exact dis
tance OF the earth from the sun.
And now for the role which num-
ber plays in connection with the
wonderful structure:
The pyramid is pentagonal; that
IL. Il has FIVE sides and Ave angles.
The Royal cript is on the fiftleth
structural stratum, and its walls con-
slst OF FIVE thicknesses of granite
blocks.
The engineer who made these
researches says that he Is OF the
opinion that the builders OF the
pyramid chose the pentagonal form
with n view-partly, at least--to
durability. His reason for this be-
lief is that In a pentagon the sides
and the diagonal are almost com
while in no quadrilater-
al figure that can be constructed is
this the case.
The result of this commensura-
bility between the sides and the d.
agonal is 10 give the structure we'll
nigh indestructible strength. To
this fact mainly does the great py-
ramid owe it's existence In almost
grandeur in the face
Of the stress and storm OF so many
thousands OF years.
And thus the longdesposed num-
ber has become enthroned at last
among the great mystic numbers.

REPAIRS AT MARE ISLAND.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.-THE army
transport Sheridan, which sustained
extensive damage some months ago by
grounding, probably will be locked at
the navy yard at Mare island. Such a
request has been made by the war de-
partment. If this is done the Sheridan
will occupy the dock at Vallejo for the
rest of the year, making it necessary
for navy ships to be locked at private
plants in San Francisco, of course, at
the expense of the war department.
There is no special naval work in
sight at Mare island, unless it is the
minor repairs which are necessary on
the Yorktown, which may be brought
north from Central American waters.
If the Raleigh and Cincinnati are to
come to the eastern coast, as is now
