FORCE OF GRAVITY.

Il Makes You Fall Faster In aasSsn

Did you know that you drop faster
In Massachusetts than in Mexico2
For instance, If you were to fall from
a twenty story building in Boston you
would descend lot faster than IL you
fell from the same height In the City
Of Mexico.
The principle of this is quite simple,
even II 1t does seem a bit startling. It
Is merely that as one goes toward the
equator the force Of gravity gets less
and less and the quickness Of descent
Of falling body slower; and, while
doubtless you would feel just as un-
comfortable falling that distance in
one place as in another and the results
would be just as disastrous, there are
times and things In which the differ
ence is not only perceptible, but worth
a notice.
In Boston If you were to FIRE hori.

sixteen feet from the ground the bull
let fred would reach the ground one
second after 1t had left the rife. But
IL you were to take that same rife to

take one and one-half seconds to reach

a sleepy looking eye framed in a
triangle which is surmounted by a
sunburst. Above is the motto
