Anyone who is interested, can easily prove th is phenomen to his own satisfaction. If you have ju st the rim s of a pair of glasses, th e experim ent will be very easy to perform ; if you haven't, you can m ake rims to suit the!purpose, w ith soft wire. Cover one piece w ith a piece of red cellophane, and th e o th e r eye piece w ith green. I N ext m ake a pap er disk about six inches in d iam eter, then w ith a red pencil, d raw parallel lines on th e paper, ab o u t a q u a rte r of an inch ap art, a t rig h t angles to ' th e ned lines. Now you can put on th e glasses and look at the disk, which should be held at norm a! reading dis tance. A fter looking at the disk lo r a while, you should notice th a t first the red and then the green lines will appear, altern ately . The rhythm of a ltern atio n varies w ith the individual, b ut the change ta k es place every few seconds. W ith th e w riter, th is change takes place about every ten seconds. However, the speed of altern atio n varies under d ifferen t circum stances. W h a t is happening is this. Red colors are only faintly visible when seen through red filters, and th e sam e is tru e w ith green, etc. Consequently, w e sec th e green lines th ro u g h th e red eye piece, and red lines th ro u g h th e green eye piece. If you w ere to p u t y o u r hand over the red filte r (th e eye pieces act as light filters) only the red lines would be visible, and victa-versa. The fact th a t th e red, and th en I th e green lines appear, proves conclusively, th a t only one eye is w orking at a tim e. I could site o th er examples, th a t would prove this alte rn a tin g process, but th is one exam ple should suffice.
