NOW

Today all the clocks Of the important
countries of the world are ticking i'm
accordance to their distance from the
Greenwich observatory. All the worlds
nayigators are sailing or steaming over
the seven seas on courses laid by
Greenwich observatory. The people of
the United States are rising from their
beds, opening the days business and
eating their meals according to regu-
lations laid down by the British as
tronomers of King Charles reign. The
world is marked off into zones, each
one of which occupies fifteen degrees
of longitude and is numbered according
to it's position in relation To Greenwich
In the United States four of these
zones exist, the country having a
breadth of ffty-fivc degrees. All the
clocks i'm a zone register the same
hour according To a regulation adopted
in 1883. This regulation was promul-
gated To overcome the seventy-one
different sets of time prevailing In the
country heretofore Today. another
mighty evolution in navigation and the
universal time system is i'm process. 1t
is proposed to use the wireless telc-
graph to verify time. 1t is suggested
that the United States Naval Observa-
tory flash it's signals of the hour to
ships at sea so that the navigator can
accurately determine his distance from
land by setting his chronometer. An
other scientist suggests that the gov

fash its signals to Einel Tower i'm

World Is Deeply Indebted
to Greenwich Observatory
THEN

Two hundred and thirty-nine years
ago today the foundations were laid
for the Greenwich Observatory which
gives the world its standard time. \
year later it was completed and APP
proved by King Charles II. It's cree
ton marked new epoch in the worlds
navigation. Before it's establishment
a nayigator's voyage was a haphazard
and exceedingly dangerous undertake
Ing. The Astronomical tables by which
the navis ator figured his position in
mid-occan were so erIatic at that time
that q ship headed for the virginia
Colony in the New World was just as
liable to land on the coast OF New
England. There was no universally
accepted first meridian of longitude
by which the navigator could sail his
course accurately until the early ex-
plorers adopted their own. The Latin
naVigators used the Peak of Tcneriffe
in the Canary Islands, until Richelieu
called a scientific congress in Paris in
1880 which decided upon the island Of
ferro as the first meridian. This is
land remained the guiding mark for
the Latin races for many genera lions.
The English-speaking races establish
ed Greenwich time and meridian. one
Of the first acts of the first royal as
tronomer was TO compile all the known
statistics relating to astronomy and to
work out "A reliable table for mariners.

Reeds second trial, the first having
resulted in a hung jury.
At 3 o'clock this afternoon County
Attorney Vic Decker made the open-
ing statement for the state. Several
witnesses testified during the after
noon, the evidence being similar to
that heard at the first trial. Doctor
Stanford of kelfer, who attended the

Flght thc Divorce Dragon.


Couples that are achieving mar
riage seem to consciously or uncon-
sCiously recognize certain truths.
Couples that are losing the game APP
parently have not observed them,
These truths have n workable basis
for they measure action and reaction,
the playing and resisting power OF
both parties.
The man or woman who desires to
make marriage an achievement may
find the following hints Of value in
playing the game, or the man OF
woman whose face Is turned toward
