the light to the same place upon the screen or the wall. 

 5th. By rotating colored disks. 

 Disks painted with the colors of the spectrum are 

 sold in the market under the name of Newton's disks. 

 They are made by pasting sections of colored tissue 

 paper upon a large, stiff pasteboard disk. 



These colors should have the following angular 

 value : 



Red, 60, Blue, 55, 



Orange, 35, Indigo, 35, 



Yellow, 55, Violet, 60. 



Green, 60, 



This disk may be rotated upon the whirling table, 

 or, what is much better, a zoetrope rotator, and it will 

 appear a dusky white. It will be better to have a strong 

 light thrown upon it while it is turning. 



Another good way is to cut disks of properly-colored 

 papers and make a radial slit in them. When put
