a Largo Pendulum.
The longest pendulum on this continent
swings in the technological school at
Atlanta. It is a heavy pear shaped piece
of tron attached to a brass wire forty-
two feet long. The upper end'. of the
wire is pivotelin a steel plate so as to,
me%) the least • possible friction. The
swinging of the pendulum gradtially de-
scribes a circle on the floor in a direction
following the san, showing in this that
"the earth'clo move."
Directly under the pendulum is a large
circle divided Mee twenty-four parts, of
fifteen degrees each, to correspond with
the hours of the day. Tho north, polo ia
placed directly under the pendulum and
the meridians of longitude nwet there.
The parallels of latitude make smaller
circles inside the first.

lum, performs the experhnent as follows:
