Our year Is an artificial one, and so mui be made by careful study In well Without pre equipped observatories. else instruments It would b diilicult to fix the day when the new year begins. The ancient Egyptians experienced no such dllBculty. Their year, from which ours Is derived, had a perfectly natural beginning. It always commenced on the day when Sirlus and ' the sun rose together. The temples of Egypt were really observatories, built to face this or that star as It rosenThey were more or less elaborate, bat all hnd as their fundamental plan a long narrow pas- Rage down which the star's rays came. and a dark chamber at the far end Where the priest made the observa tlon and where the Image was kept.

Soldiers are stationed around the temple to keep the crowd silent and to prevent stragglers from crossing the path of the star's rays In front of the temple door at the critical moment. i A shout bursts from those on the roof as the sun tops the' horizon'. The observers below watch their water trlocks carefully now a, the minutes are told off, and strain their eyes at the narrow opening where Sirlus Is to shine. In a few moments Sirlus Itself flashes Into view, and the new year ha begun. . . : .The Egyptians discovered that the year has an extra quarter of a day In It. They did It by noting that on some years Sirlus and the sun rose almost together, while on others.there was in-- 4 appreciable difference In time, and that these changes repeated themselve every nve years, iney iouna me length of the year to within 11 minutes of its true value, which was a remark able thing to do with the primitive ap pllances they had at hand. - .".' a history unique canyon, the annals of the schools of the State The first time one visits the grounds he is impressed at once with the quiet ness of the gray-whit- e buildings, and the orderliness of their arrangement! around the ten-acr- e oampus.
