Today marks the shortest day of
the year. The sun reaches its
lowest point at 11:16 a, m. and this
svent is known as the Winter Sol
stice, from the Latin meaning to
stand, because the sun at this time
appears to stand at the same height
tor several days. Of course, the sun
loes not really move from north to
south or vice versa, but this appar
ent movement is due to the inclina- I
tion of the earth’s axis of rotation j
to the plane of the orbit, or In j
Dther words, that the poles lean al- |
:ernately towards and away from
the sun. It is just this inclination
which brings about the varying
engths of days and nights and the
lifferent seasons. At the Winter
Solstice the north pole leans far.th
jst away from the. sun and the days
ire shortest, while in the southern
lemisphere summer prevails.
Today the s,un rises 9:53:44 a. m.
md sets 2.00.27 p, m., making the
nterval from sunrise to sunset «
lours ,1 minute. Twilight, however,
:onsi^erably lengthens,, the day. It
s hard to judge when twilight be
;ins and ends, but it is usual to
:alculate it from the time the sun Is
.8 degrees below the horizon. At
his rate, twilight commences 7:00
md ends 5:00 p. m. The sun today
it noon is but 2 deg. 21 min. above
he horizon, or 47 degrees less than
.t midsummer.
The days lengthen very slowly at
Irjjt. For several days around the
olstice the difference can only be
aiculated. On Dec. 23 the day has
:ained 9 seconds, on the 24th 37
ec., on the 25th 1 mid. 6 sec., etc.
'he afternoons lengthen out first
irhile the sun rises at about the
ame time for a week. Thus by
an. 1 the afternoon has gained ll
ainutes and the forenoon only two.
'his may seem peculiar, but it is
ue to the fact that the Equation of
'ime, which is constantly changing,
3 additive to apparent time at this
ime and increases more rapidly
rom day to day than the sun gains
or awhile. If apparent solar time
fere used instead of mean time, the
orenoon and afternoon would show
he same rate of increase.
