Everywhere, accord- ing to a bulletin of the Hydrographio Office, Greenland’s mountainous belt .“is penetrated by deep fiords, which reach to the inland ice and are termi- 'nated by the perpendicular fronts of huge glaciers, While in some places the ice comes down in broad projec- tions close to the margin of the sea. All of these glaciers are making their way toward the sea, and, as their ends are forced out into the water, they are broken off and set adrift as barge.- This process is called calving. The if size of the pieces set adrift varies E, greatly, but a. berg from 60 to 100 feet ‘ to the top of its walls, whose spires or § pinnacles may reach from 200 to 250 J L fig feet in height and whose length may i l ' l E; be from 800 to 500 yards, is considered We wish you a joyous time dur- ing the Christmas season, and hope that~ the coming year will be crowded with more prosperity for you, and that during that time we shall meet oftener and part better friends.

This is in- “ - Ea, correct, as measurements above and p below water should be referred to L mass and not to height. It is even % possible to have a berg as high out of the water as it is deep below the surface, for, if we imagine a large, solid lump of any regular shape which has a very small sharp high pinnacle in the centre, the height above water can easily be equal to. the depth be- low. An authentic case on‘ record is that of a berg grounded in the Strait of Belle Isle in sixteen fathoms of water, that had a thin spire about 100 feet in height. “Bergs are made all the year round, but in greater numbers during the summer season; and thousands are set adrift each year. Once adrift in the Arctic, they find their way into the Labrador current and begin their jour- ney to the southward. It is not an unobstructed drift, but one attended with many stoppages and mishaps. Many ground in the Arctic basin and break up there; others reach the shores of Labrador, where from one end to the other they continually ground and float; some break up and disappear entirely, while others get suit the borrower.

If these proce8ses of disintegration did not go on and large bergs should remain intact, several years might elapse before they would - melt, and they would ever be present in the transoceanic routes. In fact, instances are on record in which masses of ice, escaping the influences of swift destruction or possessing a capability for resisting them, ,have, by phenomenal drifts, passed into European waters and been encoune tered from time to time throughout [that portion of the ocean which stretches from the British Isles to the Azores. "They assume the greatest variety of shapes, from those approximating 'to some regular geometric figure to others crouuied with spires, domes. minarets, and peaks, while others still are pierced by deep indentations or Small cataracts precipitate themselves from the large bergs, while many icicles: hang in' clusters from every projecting ledge. They fre- ouently have outlying spurs under .‘water, which are as dangerous as any other sunken reefs. For this reason it is advisable for vessels to give them .a’ wide. berth, for there are a number of‘caseson record where vessels were seriously damaged by striking when apparentlyclear of the berg, It is generally best for vessels to go' to‘ windward of them, because the disin- tegrated fragments. will have a ten- dency to drift to leeward, while open. Water will be found to windward. Serious injury has occurred to vessels through the breaking up or capsizing Qf‘icebergs." _ '_'\-"~."‘ -. I. .- iyrrunn THE iDEA AnodNo ‘ . _.
