The units employed were chosen rather to show theeffect of varying the factors Ave have grouped under the headingof distribution on the ability of the eye to maintain its efficiencyfor a period of work. We hope ultimately to determine the CHART I.—Distribution the effect on loss of efficiency of varying the observers position in the room, or the number of bright sources, primary and secondary, in the field of vision.
