RIVERS DEEPER THAN OCEAN
Hudson and St. Lawrence, in America,
Are Examples, and the Congo,
in Africa.

Did you ever hear of a ''sub-
oceanic canyon?"
The Hudson river is me-. Its
bed, worn by the flowing stream, is
considerably deeper than the off
shore part Of the Atlantic.
Another such canyon is the chan
mel Of the st. Lawrence. Yet an
other is that Of the Congo. Both
are deeper than the ocean neal their
mouths.
The Hudson, with the great bay
into which it flows, is a drowned
river" That is to say, it is flooded
by an intruding ocean. The bay
and lower river compose what would
be called in Norseland a ford.
The Delaware is another drowned
river. Chesapeake bay is another.
Long Island sound is yet another.
Why should these rivers be
drowned? What has happened to
them?
We'll, you sec, it is like this: The
whole east coast of the United States
has sunk a good deal in the curse
OF ages, owing to the enormous
weight Of material brought down by
the rivers and deposited out in the
ocean offshore. But geologists are
inclined to think that the melting
Of glaciers had largely to do with
