In our latitudes this star meusurrs about half way up from the north ern horizon to the zenith, although It seems considerably higher. Ap proximately and poetically then we may say that the earth turns on tlie North Star In a clockwise di rection. Although we cannot feel this rapid motion of the surface. alMiul 700 miles an hour In our part f.f the world, we can see a sort of nverse reflection of 11 by looking a. the stars, for I hey appear com pletely to enrlrcle the North Star in a counter-clockwise direction once In 23 hours 58 minutes.
