GERMAN KALI WORKS,

For The Enterprise.
The ConipasH.
"As true as the needlo to the
pole," is a simile of the lone past.
Columbus, in 1492, tir&l discovered
that the compass 11 edle
toes not point due north :it all
daces.
Ilenry Gellibrand, in 10 4,
liscovered that the needle does
not point hi the same direction,
,t the same place, year aftci year.
And it was not until 1722 that
Iraham, of London, discovered
'hat the needle chances its '<rnr
ion slightly during the middle
hour of each day.
In. the eastern portion ol the
United States?in Maine.?the
needle now points 21 decrees
west of the true north, while in
Washington, in the extreme west rn
part of the union^tho needle
viow points 23 degrees east of the
irue north. At London the nee
die now points 17 degrees west
of north.
In the eastern part of o^ir state
the needle now points about 1
degree west of north, whil^in the
western part of the state the needle
points about 2 degrees ea ' of
the true north. In our cm nt.y
he needle?north end ? i ow
points i degree west of tho mo
' orth meridian, while in (??v??n
villo and Spartanburg counties,
'he magnetic needle now coin
< ides with the true north and
couth lino.
There are places on the earth'.*
?ui face where the needlo, far
rom pointing north and south,
points due east and west. Again
there are other places between
the magnetic north pole and the
true north pole where the north
nd of the needle actually points
south.
In 1700 the needle pointed to
ne true norm ; in 17&0 it point<
d about 14 to 1 4-10 degree
t ast of the true north ; in 1 S'K), it
pointed 44 to 5 degrees east of
the true north, reaching 5 degrees
or possibly more east in Hit'), its
t astern limit; in 1850 the nt _dio
, ointed about 24 degrees -.st;
i 1890 the needle pointed al.c it
1 ) the true north line hero* d
l ow points about about 4 d- ee
est of north, as just et^Vd
! bove. The needle will lil ely
< )ntinue in its westerly swing for
'he next hundred years or more
-no one knows just how long
During the month of August
the needle will point 1 10 to 4
< f a degree further west at 1 to
'j o'clock p. m. than it does during
the early morning hours, but
this daily change ii hardly notice
able in cold weather.
From an insufficient knowledge
i'f this declination or variation of
the declination of the compass
needle many of the past surveyors
of our county have been unable
to retrace the old lines, and now
the surveyors of today find bun
dreds and even thousands of
blunders all over our county.
Local attraction and carelessness,
too, have caused hundreds of
crooked lines to be left in almost
^.^every nook and corner of our
c(Y:mU.yi which makes surveying
a vorV* difficult and particular
thing with the people of today.
In a plumber of our States
meridian posts, or stones, have
I een placed near the county
v m
court ho usee, whero every surveyor
can test Li* cotijjjass, at least
onco a year, and re run, with al
most perfect accuracy, all linos
run since such stones were thus
!erected.
It would ho well il our logisla
lorn would see to such stones
heing placed at Lancaster at an
early date. This ought to have
been done 50 years ago, and hundreds
of (iiWpufes and a number
of our lawsuits would never have
been heard of; but, "It is uever
i too late to do good.'*
Surveyorsof North Carolina and
other Suites are compelled by
law to test their compasses on
such stones, at least once a year,
and to iile the result with the
Clerk of the Court, giving name
and date, on a register prepared
for this purpose.
I hope the surveyors of the
20th century will all hew to the
marlc,,in ohl Lancaster county,
and give the coming generations
ru little cause for future trouble
j as possible. T. M. Helk.

lessor E (3 Bwnsou, president of
the Normal school, has informed
Mayor Eii Smith that he was au Ihorized
to slate that if the city
| would furnish a suitable site and
, $2,500 a year, to maintain it, that
$25,000: could be ?ad from Mr *
Carnegie for a public library for
j Athens.
Mr Smith has spoken lo sever- ^
.11 wealthy citizens of Athens,
land they all evinced a willingness *
to contribute to buying a site,and *
I i
enough will probably be raised in <
a few days for that pmpose. j
When this has been raised, it is I
not thought that there will be any t
