'( COLUMBIA'S ACCURATE CLOC1
A Timepiece Which Does Not Vai

i clocks in the world. It lias rim f
| seven months with a mean error <
| only fifleen-thnosandths of a secoi
and a maximum error of thirty-tho
sandths of a second per day. Th
means that it does not vary mo
than half a second a month, or s
seconds a year.
Compare this with the first pock
timepiece, the "Animated I
j Nurembnrg," which required windii
twice a day and varied an hour at
o half in (he same time! Compare
with some of the highest-pric<
watches manufactured today, whi<
often vary more than ten seconds
, week and you will have, some idea i
measuring time. Yet even this ace
racy is surpassed by some fatnoi
time-pieces, if the trade magazin
are to be believed. There have be<
accounts in tlieni of clocks that ha'
; varied less than a second in porio<
) as long as ten years.
