The i032 Declination Chart of Canada just pubfished by the Topo- Sruphical Survey of the Department of- thc Interior, showing the var a- tion of the 00mins in 311 pBJLg o: Canada calls to mind this wonder- ful instrument which for many centuries has guided man in it's travels about the earth. The inven- tion of the magnetic compass is lost in the dawn of history. it is ﬁrst mentioned in a quaint Chinese legend which relates that the Em- peror Ho-ang-ti in 2634 B. c. led forth his army and attacked the

army. Then the Emperor, not to be outdone, in his turn vised the greater magic of the compass which led his

But where- as the Greeks used the Great Bear, the mourns and Anglo-Saxons used Polartsi-dhe North Star-as being nearer true north. Thus navigators had no guide in cloudy weather. The Phoenlcians have often been credit- ed with knowledge of the compass because of their long voyages.

Contrary to story book report, the compass-needle does not point truth north but more or less to the east. or west at different places. Thus its direction at Halifax, N. 5., is 23 degrees west of north. while at Vic-' boria, B. 0.. it is 24 degrees east of north. This is because the magneto poles of the earth do not lie at the geographic poles shown on our maps oi the world. In fact the north magnetic pole lies on Boothia penin- sula on the Arctic coast of Canada lust northwest oi Hudson Bay, and
