been so simplified through the
cooperation of the steamship
companies and the A. A. A. that
more and more people every year

NEW TELESCOPE
RANGES WIDE

A telescope which will be IS per
cent more efficient than any now
in use, if it comes up to the ex-
pectations of it's inventor, is being
constructed for the United States
Naval Observatory.
The instrument, less than half
the size of the 100-inch telescope
which is the largest in the world,
is being built by Prof. G.. w.
Ritchey from a design made by
himself in cooperation with Prof.
Henri Ghretien, of the University
of Paris.
While the telescope will not
penetrate space to a greater dis
tance than some of the larger
ones now in use, it is believed
that, through mirrors of a new
type and supersensitive photo
graphic plates. it's work will be
far more accurate. It is expected
to measure 36 times more sky
area than any now in use.
