I enclose the following description of school/college project.
"...Let me set the stage for that. There is a great sunny dining hall. At noon it is filled not only by undergraduates, but also by the first and fourth grade children of the new elementary school, whose quarters are not yet ready for them. Glued to one window sill is a scrap of mirror, so, you see, there is a sun-bright patch of light on the ceiling. That bright spot moves. Near noon, it approaches a line of red thumbtacks in the ceiling. Then ... gets up; a small cloud of fourth graders surrounding him. He gets a long bamboo pole. A small child puts a thumbtack on the magnet that ends the pole. The pole goes up, poised near the bright spot; the noon bell rings and the bright sun picture is pinned to the ceiling by the red dot: it is in a line with all the others! Then the small children cheer loudly; so, of course, do I!"

I hope you find this another useful way to mark an hour-line on a ceiling. The children and students were all surprised to see what happened at the end of October when Daylight Saving Time went out of effect.
