The speed OF light is something
over 10000 milese a second and
there are $500 seconds in an hour
This explains why light velocity Is
not measured with a stopwatch and
why most people will consider II
practically instantaneous, as the
ancients did.
1t was not until 1876 that the
Danish astronomer Roemer discov-
cred that light, while it had a ire
mendous speed, was not instantan-
eous. He did not have apparatus
to measure time in hundred -thous-
andths of seconds as Michaelson did
or for that matter even anything
like a modern stopwatch. Roemer
had to depend, therefore, on long
period estimates of time, in weeks
and months, to get great accuracy
in mere seconds. And he had to
use distances measured in millions
Of miles. Actually, Roemer discov-
cred the fact that eclipses Of the
satellites Of the planet Jupiter did
not occur at the regularly predicted
times. The eclipses occurred ear
lier or later than the calculated time
depending on whether the earth
and jupiter were on the same or
on opposite sides OF the sun. The
discrepancy was due to the interval
OF time necessary for the light TO
travel across the earth's orbit, a
distance of nearly 10000 miles.
The second determination of the
velocity Of light was made by Brad
hy in 1728. He did not work with
the planets Of Jupiter, but discov-
cred the phenomena called abera-
ton In which certain stars seemed
TO shift their position at various
times. He explained the alteration
by taking into account that light
has a finite velocity and the motion
OF the earth in its orbit about the
sun.-New York Herald Tribune.

Washington's state flag carries
out the evergreen" theme. It Is
made Of green silk or bunting, with
q reproduction Of the state seal in
the center.
The seal is the head Of George
Washington, encircled by the words
1.-THE Seal Of the State Of Washing
ton-1889." Washington is the only
state named after q q. S. President.
The flag was adopted officially
on March S. 1923.
One Of the most commercially
important Of Washington's many
minerals is coal.
It is estimated there are still e..
O00.000,0 900 tons Of coal to be mined
In the state, enough to last at the
present rate Of consumption Tor
5000 years.
Washington contains the only
large and commercially important
coking coal reserves on the Pacific
Coast. It is accessible to both trains
and motor trucks, where tempera-
ture is not subject to freezing.
In spite Of the increased use Of
electric power in industry, coal is
still needed as coke for n1etallurgic
use, in some forms OF gas manu-
featuring, and in some types Of
electric smelling for the carbon it
contains.
