laugh for everybody. The cast includes
thirty well known people of Wildwood

of Iowa, in his lecture, Some Points in
the Recent History of the Mississippi
Valley"
1T is habit of ours to think of
things that exist as always having
existed, but there was 4 time whel
the continent had no great master
stream. E0us and cons of time have
been required to bring about the great
changes that have taken place in the
mighty river and only for a brief per
iod has il appeared a it is today.
the first stage of the history OF the
river began at the very beginning oF
the tertiary period. This first chapter
in the rivers history was an meyent-
ful one. 1t slowly and sluggishly
pushed its way between low banks
covered with tropical vegetation. The
Gulf of Mexico extended as far north
as the Ohio river and away to the west
stretched the sea. The only land abova
the vast eXpanse of water were a few
islands formed, now the Rocky mouu
tains.
The second chapter which exten !!

airy period was more eventful for tn

The third chapter was even MOI

glaciers. The sea disappeared and in

northwest came two great glacial
movements. They met at the Father
of Waters but neither ever crossed it
