PRICE S CENTS
FACTS ABOUT THE MAGNETIC
POLE.

1t is quite superfuous to cay
that everyone in this country
who knows anything atall knows
that the North Pole has been
discovered while but q compare
tive few know that the North
Pole and the north magnetic pole
are quite different places as well
as different things. Most people
suppose that tie magnetic needle
of q compass points due north
while the truth is there are very
few places on the surface Of the
earth where the needle really
points due north.
The north magnetic pole, or
area, lies in the vicinity of King
Williams Land, just off the Arc
TIC Coast of North America, in
Bothia. These are strange lands
that we don't hear much about
after we have left our school
biographies behind.
When this magnetic pole is be-
tween us and the North Pole the
compass points due north. As
we go either east or west from
this line 1t Is easy to see that the
compass is 'of'' to a certain ex-
tent. If We were travel north of
the magnetic pole the needle
would point south; west oft the
needle would point east.
Sir James Ross in 1881 located
the north magnetic pole, approx
nateiy, at a point mp in Bothia,
but in 1903 Capt. Roald Amund-
sen, IL the good ship Gjoa set
out on an expedition which last
ed till 1905, and during those
three years he relocated the
magnetic pole and incidentally
made the Northwest Passage, )"
the goal for which mariners have
striven since the days of Hendrix
Hudson.
Amunds sen and his assistants
lived for nearly two years at
Gjohavn in King Williams Land,
west of the Coast of Greenland.
This was about 100 nautical miles
from the magnetic pole and is .
favorable point for making mag
netic observations.
Terrestrial magnetic force is
different on every part of the
earth's surface and is not always
the same at a given point. 1t is
subject to regular daily and year
ly changes, and Amudsen want
ed to find out about these chang
es. Evidently the best place
would be near the magnetic
power, so there he posted him
self, and for 10 months. day and
night, his party took reading of
their instr1ments-both inclina
tion and declination.
Amundsen himself also made
short excursions right into the
very region Of tho magsetic pole
and was able, by the aid of de-
clination observations to prove
absolutely that magnetic north
pole does not have a stationary
situation but is continually NOV
ing.
