bered that the team is scheduled to leave England in December and the second series of Test Matches will be carried out in the spring of 1930 before the West Indies have had time to improve their style.
The West Indies Board of Cricket Control who have finance at their command as the result of the 1928 tour should bear the comment of the English critics in mind and in coordination with the International Cup Committee the cricket author ities of the individual islands make arrangements to get out a conchas Soon as practicable. It may yet be possible to have a coach in these isands at the end of the current Eng lish cricket season and while his work may not directly influence West Indies cricket in 1980 it will be rute to produce results later on.

Let me see that on and then deposited on the margin of higher than a Baron, isn it fertile valleys. For when the Glacier reaches a warmer region, it gradual ly melts, and a muddy stream issue from it. At the same time the debri, which forms a long line of rubbish on its surface, called a moraine, is de The Tailor posited in the valley, In the region of glaciers as else 24th STREET where, fragments of rock are detach Guachapati ed in various ways by the actions Panama RP the atmosphere. The carbonic acid contained in rain causes some rocks, especially limestone, to crumble into sand. The oxygen in the air, which makes iron rust, also forms a crust on the surface of many rocks. This falls off, and a new crust is formed; that too falls off, and thus coat after coat is peeled away. Lastly, when water goes into crevices and clefts of rocks and freezes, it expands, and breaks off fragments, which fall into the valleys.
When a Glarier meets a lake, as happens in some parts of Switzerland, large masses of it break off, and are hurled into it, and float upon its surface, till they gradualy melt away. These floating masses called ICEBERGS, or ICE MOUNTAINS. The loebergs of the Ocean have the same origin. They are detached masses of Aretic Glaciers which glide down to the sea.
It requires a very long time to melt an Iceberg. It is often floated two thousand miles from the place wher it was launched before it disappears.
It carries with it over all that distance whatever rocks and rubbish have been frozen into its substance.
As it gradually melts, its debris is dropped into the sea. Sometimes an Iceberg is stranded in comparatively deep water, for it is found that there are eight feet under the water for every one foot that appears above it. An Iceberg so stranded, melts away by degrees, and deposits where it melts the moraine and boulders which it may have borne with it from its native mountains.
This is but another example of how water force operates in changing the face of nature, The bottom of every Glacier is covered with loose stones and sand, which cause it to leave peculiar scratching, on the rocks over which it has passed. These scratchings, as well as moraines and boulders, are Cound in many countries where Glaciers no longer exist. The inference is, that Glaciers must once have existed there. for example, in Scotland, in Cumberland and Wales, and DAPAT in Ireland. This has led to the further conclusion that many lakes owe their origin to ice force. For a mountain lake is visimply valley which WE OFFER EXCELLENT PRICES FOR are AND Job Printing Book.
