His talk was interesting and well received by the men present. Usiervatory oiieu Several factors are taker Into consideration in choosing sites for observatories. A site Is chosen where there are a Inrge number of clear nights In the year, where the oir is free from dust and haze, wtiere the altitude is high enough for the site to be above part of the air, where a dry climate assures cloudless skies, and where smoke and artificial lights of cities are a >■ ! sent. To this must be fidded th? factor of “g<<«i seeing" as oppose' i •,o “poor seeing." o German Memorial in Oxford In memory of German under ' graduates of New college. Oxford.
