STONE MOVED BY THE SUN
Immense Mass Of Granite In Ohio
Cemetery Undergoes Curious ~
Revolutions.

An interesting object is to be seen
In cemetery of Ohio-a large gran
lite stone weighing two tons, in the
shape Of ball. which is gradually
turning on its axis. During the last
five years. SO 1T is said. this ball has
turned fraction over 13 inches.
When the ball was placed in position
an unpublished spot six inches in diam
eter was purposely left in the socket
OF the pedestal whereon 1t rested. A
little later 1t was noted with astonish-
ment that this spot was turning up
ward on the south side OF the monu
ment. This curious revolution Of the
polished ball, to lift which would re-
qure a large derrick, is supposed to
be due to the suns action. in the fol-
lowing manner: The solar rays heat
ing one side cause the ball to expand
to a certain degree whereas the north
side, which rests mostly in the shade,
does not expand to the same extent,
thus causing the ball gradually to
shift Its position by turning.
