The Modera Compass.

In the old days on board W wooden sailing ship the compass magnetic north, and there was no noodle usually pointed to sha

prossing need to attempt a great degree of refinement with the steering. Hence it followed that: neither shipowner norship builder bestowed so much atten- tion on the compass and ita Burrroundings as they deserved. But with the nolaing of iron and steel ships it became evident that the metal vessel was herself a |hugo méghot, which exhibited a

Notwithstanding the important improvements in the mariner's compass effected by inventors, thero is room for advance with respect to the position to which the steering compass is assigned. Frequently the place which is "available is not the best. Often it is a compromise, due to a com plicated environment of awning stanchions, ventilators, davite, ́and-other-essentials, capable of boing awung into various posi tions.
