IDEAS HARD TO ERADICATE
Erroneous Geographical Notions That
Have a Firm Hoid 011 the Minds
of Most People.
It is curious to note with what per
sistency people will adhere to current
ideas without ever thinking that those
Ideas do not, under nil circumstances,
denote one and the same thing. As a
matter of fact, the maximum heut is
"between" North and South viz, along
the equator, and it is as cold at the
South Pole as at the North Pole. Also
the words North and South are as rela
tive terms ns East and West, and do
not, to everyone, convey the same
Idea.
To make this clear, let us supposf
that A stnnds at the North Pole and,
turning in the direction of the country
from vliich he came, feels the wind
blowing in his face. He would, of
course, claim that this wind wus south
erly, and nobody would dure contradict
him, for does not the wind come from
Norway, which is south from the Pole?
His companion, B, however, who stands
a little distance further off, let us suy
CO steps beyond the Pole, on the
hemisphere on which America is situ
ated, will Just as emphatically assert
that this wind is northern, as It blows
from the North Pole, and the snow
flakes it carries after having passed
the polar point no longer are directed
toward the North, but the South. There
is no use disputing; both are right and,
although, separated by a few steps
only, that which to A Is north la to B
south. .
