Its Relation to Standard Time In This
Country.

Its Relation to Standard Time In This
Country.
Standard time is the time in CON-
mon use regulating the ordinary af-
fairs of life. 1t is derived from the
sun. Leaving out of account small
irregularities of the solar motion that
are Of no consequence for our present
purpose, when that celestial body Is on
the meridian of any place we call the
time of that place noon. or IL o'clock.
1t follows that when it is noon at any
given place it Is similarly noon at all
other places having the same meridi-
an. AS the sun rises in the east and
sets In the west, 1t is evident that
when it is crossing the meridian of
any place it must have already passed
that of places to the eastward and
not yet reached that of places to the
westward. In other words, when 1t is
noon in the given place it is forenoon
in places to the westward and after
noon in places to the eastward.
Now Is degrees of longitude CORE
spond exactly to one hour of time diff
of the several standard meridians diff
fer from Greenwich by an even num-
Der of hours. In the United States
the standard time meridians are those
whose longitudes are west of Green
witch 60, rs. 90, 105 and 100 degrees.
The time of these meridians is re-
spectively four, five, six, seven and
4.
time because the sun in travelling
across the sky from east to west pass
es the Greenwich meridian before 1t
reaches the American meridians.-New
