 gently in the annual report Of the di

 battle waged year in and year au
 between sea and land along the entire
 length of Americas eastern shoFs line,
 The truth is that sea and land have been foes since the beginning oi time" says bulletin on the same subject issued from the Washington n, C., headquarters Of the National Geographic Society,
 According 10 the dreams of some physiographers, these old enemies will remain such until the last moun- tain pinnacle has been washed down and ground 10 sand. and the Vidtori- ous ocean rolls unbroken around the world, But whatever may be the out- come millions Of years Tn the future. We are now in an era of give and take. Many aeres-even square miles of land are lost annually: but com pensating areas are built up al other places.
 Continuing, the bulletin quotes as follows from communication to the society by John Oliver La Goreo de- scribing the action" In portions of the Atlantic sector where the never. ending conflict rages most iuriously:
 Waves Undermine Cliffs.
 Looking southward across the eastern entrance to Nantucket Sound. one sights Nantucket Island in the distance. On the south side Of this island the retreat of the cliffs is often 1 as much as six feet year.
 Further to the west lies Marthas | Vineyard. also an outpost of the land. | Here there are rearing ramparts of | rock hundred feet high. but even they cannot entirely withstand the in- cessant attacks of the indomitable sea
 ''To the southwest Of Marthas Vine yard lies the desolate island of No Mans Land. which is well worthy the name it bears. Gradually the sea is tearing away its vitals, and it is predicted that by the end of the pres ent century it will disappear beneath the waves forever "On the south coast of Long Island 1 we find beaches and shifting sands Here we get into more hopeful ter ritory, for the land always has an , lpbuilding Oliver for every down. z caring Roland the sea may have to l offer.

 Striking deeper water, they slow uI

 At Long Branch on may watch the shifting fortunes of the battle. Here, in spite of the most elaborate system of breakwaters man has erected. the shore-line is being led captive inch by inch. But the prisoner sand does not remain in captivity. As it Is being escorted back of the lines 1t makes n successful dash for liberty and re- joins other land units north and south of Long Branch and aids ip a coun- .er-attack in those neighborhoods.
 Tn the vicinity of Atlantic City the sea is ever striving to gain foothold; put at present the best 1t can do Is o force a shifting of land reserves rom one side of a salient to another. In a few years it took off some 76 Icres of ground from the neighbor- lood of Maine avenue and forced most of it around to the lee of the ,oint at Ohio and New Jersey av- nues.
