Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Nature-Study Review, Vol. 17: Devoted to Elementary Science in the Schools The construction of a sun-dial and the setting it up properly should he a delightful means of educating the pupils in a very important subject, the measuring of time, - a subject which is given very little thought in this day of clocks and watches. Even during the discussion of "time saving" turning back the clock an hour, very few understood its real meaning. Sun-dials are very ancient of origin; and probably the earliest form was a pole fixed in the ground with the spaces covered by its shadow during the day divided and marked by stones or in some other manner. The earliest mention of a sun-dial is found in Isaiah xxxviii, 8: "Behold, I will bring again the shadow of the degrees which is gone down in the sun-dial of Ahaz ten degrees backward." This must have been written about 700 years B. C. but we have no idea of the form of this dial. The earliest dial, the construction of which we know, was made by the Chaldean astronomer Berossus who lived about 300 B. C. and it consisted of a hollow hemisphere with its rim horizontal and a bead fixed at its center which cast a shadow, the path of which was an arc which was divided into twelve equal parts. This form of dial was used many centuries by many peoples. No one knows certainly when the first clock was invented nor by whom, but the use of clocks in Europe in the 13th century has been recorded.
