An Iberia boy has constructed

the lower Mississippi river at or

1t seems TO be thoroughly braced

free passage of all river craft.
Tie model displays great inge-
nnity and considerable skill in
cAr,yin out the ideas. Whether
his pontoons have the proper pro
portions for supporting the weight
that would be borne, is an eDgi-
