DON'T GET LOST

southland that is all that the COM
pass can do at the best, while it does
It much less accurately than the
sun.
These are practical questions at
this time OF the year. Take your
own illustration. You have wan
dered far into the Adirondacks from
near Dannemora and do not know
your way back. But If you have
reason to believe, for instance, that
you are north or a little east of
north from Lake Placid, your map
will show you that your proper
course, In order to reach Dame
mora, lies a few degrees east Of
north.
II you have gone in the direction
of LoonLake, or Paul Smiths. or
Saranac, your course will lie nearly
northeast. II you have reason to
believe that you are near Mt. Marcy
on its east or northeast side you
should go about due north in order
to come out adjacent to Dannemoro.
Except from the northern edge of
the Adirondack region, an east
course could not possibly take you
to Dannemora. II you were in the
heart of the region, and went to-
ward the east long enough you
would come out on the shore OF
Lake Champlain, nearly fifty miles
east of south from Dannemora.
All this is intended to impress
the absolute necessity of having
clear and correct ideas OF the
boundaries of great woods. and
of the positions of important in
Wifi
respondingly important points
around it. As a choice between
the two you should take the map
and leave the compass every time,
unless your expedition is to cover
but a few miles, in which case or
you do not do the best thing, which
is to mark your course by visible
signs that you can trace pack
ward), you may avoid getting LOST
by laying your course near
chosen line by your compass. Then
you can get out of the woods by
simply reversing the course. II you
advanced toward the southwest, re-
treat toward the northeast.
But 1T Is always important to re-
member that the compass is at any
time likely to vary many degrees
from its proper pointing owing to
local magnetic disturbances, and
the Adirondacks, in many places,
contain iron ores and magnetic iron
capable of driving the needle wild.
In addition, the compass needle,
except in certain places, does not
point true north by many degrees.
Ii is governed by the magnetic
poles of the earth, and not at all
by the geographic poles or the
real poles of the axis of rotation.
In the eastern half of the United
States the needle points more or
less west of north, and in the west
ern half more or less east of north,
and for anything resembling accu-
rate results you must obtain from
the department of magnetism of
the Carnegie Institution, Wash
ington, the latest measures and esti-
mates of the amount of this varia-
ton, usually called the declination
of the needle.
Now this phenomenon exists at
sea as well as on land. If you set
sail from New York to go to
Southampton you would find the
magnetic declination increasing or
you had any means of measuring
it,. and when you had crossed the
ocean your needle would be point
ing many degrees farther west of
true north than II did at New York.
This fact alone suffices to answer
your second question.
