in a class dealing w ith optics.
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.

Birthdays arc happy days—and Long D stance makes
