ADVANCE STUDY.. Aboard ship a compass is subject to disturbances froni m ion or, steel on the vessel and cannot be depended' upon always to* point to the ýmagnetic pole. Therefore, it is the nesponsi- bility of the officers in. charge of a* vessel to determin.e àxaictlyhow muc'h enror:exýists':s0 that proper allowances. May be made when laying out courses or taking bearings. This type of com-. pass ernor is known as deviation. One of the methods commonly useci to determine comnpassý deviation is to. "Swing ship." That is, the position of the vessel is laid down on a chant and some prominent object visible fnom that positionand also on the chant is noted. This object should be at least thnee Miles away. The.true direction f rom the s-hip to this ob- ject is determined fronu the, chart. J2hen the .vessel Is slowly "swung" so that her headpoinits for a few Mo- ments towand about 16 of the prin- cipal points of, the compass. Each' time the head of the vessel rests on one of these points, the compas's bear-' igof t he distant. object is noted. 0f course, as the vànious iron and steel aboard ship changes its position with relation to the compass the deviation' alochanges so that it differs fromn one point to the iext as the ship swings,. After the swinging lias been com- pleted a table of deviation is .drawn up whicb shows the deviation for any point on which the ship's head mav be. This table is posted in a conspicuous place where it may' readily be referred té by 'officers for purposes.'of navigaý- t ion. Monday evening, january 27, Wil.- mette Sea Scouts of -the- advanced navigation class had the foregoing ex- plain'ed to theffi and were given a problemi to work ont over the Week. Trhe problem consisted of a table of deviation with aIl the elements. given except the deviationi itself which was to ýbe .calculated by themn for the vani- simza1r i, iuwas reveaieci Moncay night in' the animal report which Dr. Howard A.
