A barber's pole is a type of sign used by barbers to signify the place or shop where they perform their craft. The trade sign is, by a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages, a staff or pole with a helix of colored stripes (often red and white in many countries, but usually red, white, and blue in the United States).
A compass needle is a magnet, and the north pole of any magnet is defined as the side which points to the magnetic north when the magnet is freely suspended. The correct name for this end of the needle is north seeking pole. Maps label the magnetic pole in the northern hemisphere as the North Magnetic Pole.
