door. Each gate is in fact pair of
gates; for they open in the centre and
swing back against the sides of the
lock And they are operated by only
one man. who sits in tower located
on the centre wall of the locks. To
move these mighty masses of steel he
has but to touch a single lever. 1t is
inconceivable, upon seeing the size of
these great barriers, to imagine that
such a mass of steel can possibly be
swung upon hinges. Yet they are,
and seemingly with no effort at all,
opening wide or closing tight in two
minutes time.
When these gates are finished and
ready for use only small portion of
their wonderful construction is Wis
ble. Appearing as solid steel wall,
they are in reality a honeycomb of
steel squares bolted and riveted to-
gether, upon which the steel sheets
are fastened.

Imagine if you can a great tub. one
thousand feet long, more than one
hundred feet broad, and eighty-five
feet deep. Imagine that this huge
tub has in its side immense gates as
high as a seven-story building and
half city block wide, Then you can
form some idea of one of the most i'm
pressive features of the Panama
canal-the Gatun locks.
And the parts of the Gatun locks
that most strongly kindle the mag
nation are the great steel gates.
These gates have had to be SO
strongly constructed that they will be
able safely to withstand the terrific
pressure of the water in the lock,
Yet these gates, huge as they, are,

the gates will be perfectly water
