of the slit, ranged in order and partially
overlapping.
The analysis or decomposition of the
beam is due to the different refrangi-
bilities of the component rays, the violet
being the most refrangible and the red
the least Besides the visible color rays,
the spectrum contains thermal or heat
ing rays and chemical or actinc rays,
which are not visible TO the eye.
The heating effect of the solar spec
trum increases in going from the violet
to the red, and still continues TO increase
for certain distance beyond the visible
spectrum at the red end while the chem
ical action Is very faint in the red, strong
in the blue and violet. and sensible to Il
considerable distance beyond the violet
end. The actinic rays beyond the violet
may be rendered visible by throwing
them upon q surface treated with some
huorescent substance.
Besides this band of different colors.
u pure solar spectrum will be found to
possess q number OF dark lines, which
cut through it perpendicularly. These
lines were first discovered by Wolaston,
and we're carefully studied by Frauen-
hofer and called after him Frauenhofer's
lines. The lines are always to be found
on the same spot and serve to in
dictate the exact places on the scale
OF color. For instance, if we use
the term blue in the spectrum, this
is naturally vague and incomplete,

Ing twelve years to accomplish this.
Many times l have made BEGINNINGS that
we're all right, but after ruling a hundred
INES or so one would go wrong-and then
there is nothing TO do hut start all over
again 1t tries ones patience
Professor Michelson's work has been
conducted at the Ryerson Laboratories
at the University of Chicago. He has a
specially constructed dark room in the
basement OF his building where much of
the work has been done.
In order to have some slight concep-
ton OF the Importance of Professor Mich
elson's work it is necessary to under
stand the rudimentary principles of the
science or the spectroscope and the
spectrum ray of white sunlight is
composed OF an infinite series OF rays
or different wave-lengths. 1t is the wave
lengths that constitute the different
coors. When all the colorcd rays are
mixed together the result is pure white
ray, but when the wave-lengths are sep.
arated they have literally all the colors
OF the rainbow. The image produced by
the separation OF the white ray into all
its coors is called spectrum
Now the basic idea of the spectroscope
is to turn ray Of light from it's path
by refraction or diffraction AS 1t
changes its path, the different wave.
lengths turn at different angle and in
a reflection you see an image of all OF
them separately, that is OF an infinite
series of colors, instead of plain spot
OF white sunlight.
Diferent kinds Of light have different
spectra. A burning body shows that it

from this cause MAY have slipped in.
After great many trials and calcu-
lations he solved the problem of making
perfectly parallel lines by a screw Of en-
qniSitely delicate thread This was con
structed so that by turning it the plate
to be ruled was pushed forward one
eleven-thousandth of an inch There was
still an infinitesimal error in the accuracy
OF the screw. When a screw, as near
10 perfect accuracy as possible had been
constructed, then by careful experiment,
and mathematical calculation, the per
centage OF error OF the screw was de.
termined and, the error corrected for each
OF the 10000 lines that we're drawn
For Il century men have tried and
failed to cover as many inches with cor
rectly drawn parallel lines as the Amer.
lean scientist has done. He himself
worked on the problem for upwards of
twelve years. Sometimes he would cover
several inches with infnitcsimal lines
before he discovered the fatal error. Then
he had to begin all over again.
1t is stated that he hopes 10 construct
an even more closely ruled diffraction
grating in time
The more highly this instrument is per
fected the more we shall know of var
