90 Degrees.


80 Degrees.
Those who live in temperate and
cold climates do not realize the effect

The luxury of bathing in an ocean

On Nov. 81 1909. we bathed at Moo
ice. north Queensland. in shallow wa
ter. on the edge of an area of denuded
coral reef fully two miles long by a
mile broad. For three hours a con-
siderable portion of the reef had been
exposed TO the glare Of the sun. and
the incoming tide 6lched the stored up
heat from coral and stones and sand.
The first plunge provoked an ex.
clamation Of amazsment for the water
was several degrees hotter than the
air. and it was the hottest hours
o'clock in the afternoon-of a very hot
day. No Thermometer was at hand to
register the actual temperature Of the
water. but subsequent tests at the
same spot under similar conditions
proved that the surface stratum OF
about one foot was at 10S degrees
F.. from four to six degrees hotter than
the air Below that the temperature
OF the water seemed ordinary and cor
responded with that Of the water
hundred yards from the shore.
On another day. Jan. 10. 1910. be
tween noon and o'clock in the after
noon. the sea. scientifically tested. was
found heated 10 90 degrees. With the
bulb buried In the sand six feet from
the waters edge. the mercury rose to
l1o degrees very quickly and remained
stationary.
