      In the mountains and in the cold regions of the earth there are
a lot of solid masses of ice. They are called glaciers. In many cases
they behave like rivers, descending from the mountains to the val-
leys and gradually deeping them.
      Every day the sea is taking away from the land a great deal of
soil especially in time of the storm. Each surge hurls a great mass of
water against the shore and washes away its soft parts.
