duced that mussels are at times buried
under the sandy deposit when a rush
Of water carries lot Of soil with 1t. A
naturalist who has devoted much time
to the study Of these creatures says
that mussels do move slowly and the
movement is accomplished In the fol-
lowing manner: The mussel opens its
shell and projects Its body to certain
extent from its projecting case. Then
1t cxerts some force whereby 1t keeps
the shell above the soil and uses Its
body to propel itself along the bottom

gets over the ground. II the sand is
examined after the mussel has taken

see two parallel lines caused by the
edges of the shell touching the ground.
