standards Of which are far below
the American mean. Examples Of
the SOuth'S colonial pattern. he
said. are:
"Imbalance between farming and
factories, with scant development
Of industry even for the processing
Of products grown or mined in the
region;
Processing and making Of crops

growth;
Ownership outside the area
Most Of what industries
exist and all Of the utilities and
railways that service the South
are owned outside the region:

has observed evidences that the
South is making progress toward

states paid out twice as much In
wages in l945 as in 1910 and be-
tween 1888 and 1899 the number Of
manufacturing plants in 10 south

New York City and the Ohio
and Missouri rivers.
In it's advance, the ice strip
ped off much of the soil cover
which had been formed by mil
lions of years of rock decay;
and it carried along huge boul-
ders and rubble all the way to
it's terminus-the place where
the ice melted.
Such deposits of material car
ried by glaciers are known as
moraines, and the NOR aine at
the end of a glacier is called a
terminal moraine. Large
amounts of rock and earth can
be piled up as the glacial front
remains stationary for a period
of years; and Long Island and
Cape Cod represent just such
"dumps" of rock, called debris.
Gradually, after many years,
the air warmed again and the
melting became more rapid
than the ice advance. A halt
ing, hesitant retreat was made
by the glacier; and a series Of
occasional moraines were left
during it's brief halts on the way
back to final disappearance
from the continent.
AS the front receded, it lay
bare once more the underlying
rocks; and very different was
their appearance from the days
before their covering. The gla-
cier had gouged out huge basins
which became filled with water
- the Great Lakes. And the
poorly drained, lake-dotted sec
tons of Canada remained as re-
minders of the ice sheet.
Many land forms are results
of the glacial visits; elongated
gravel hills, usually in clusters,
like those of Boston Harbor, are
known as drumlins. Mount
Monadnock in New Hampshire
has given it's name to the. hills
which stuck their a

SITUATE HAS ONLY
ONE LOBSTERWOMAN

sCITUATE, Mass. -U.H-A pert
21-year-old blonde is this towns
first and only lobsterWoman ana
mosser. .
Starting as a moss-gatherer at
the age of nine, Miriam Flynn has
built up a combination moss and
lobster business that now requires
five dories and two helpers. The
day begins for her at $3.50 a. M,
five months in the year.
When she pays off her helpers
she has enough left for herself to
double the salary Of the average
big-city secretary.
'Mim's quite a worker" they
say along the waterfront. "she
works twice as hard as any man
and hauls as good a tide as any
man can"
That means, in the lingo Of the
mossers, that Miriam, a perfect
size 10, can scrape and pull as
MANY pounds Of carrageen from
the rocks as any stalwart In that
back-breaking business.
The moss that Miriam gathers,
cures and stomps into 250-pound
bales for shipment is used in max
ing foods, medicine and beer.
And when the tide is too low for
messing, Miriam bats her Is lob
ster pots, harvesting the nights
catch and securing lobster claws
with wooden pegs.

That was my introduction TO the
life OF a railroad stewardess. For
two nights and a day I tramped
back and forth through the 12-car
City of Los Angeles as a steward

It seemed I walked almost half

One Long Walk
The life Of a railroad steward
ess, I discovered, is just one long
walk and one big smile. She has
to listen to the problems OF the
passengers. And in the course of
each day, she makes at least u
regular trips through the train.
And there are emergency calls
on her services.
Such az the one from the lady
who insisted On being moved to
another seat because she didn't
want to ride sitting with a man.

She was given arother seat, next
to a prlm-looking matron with

"sheep-backs." Best known of
all, because they are the most
widespread are the scattered
boulders known as glacial err
rates; they were carried by the
glacier but dropped by the
melting ice before reaching a
resting place with their fellows
in some moraine.
Rocking stones in Bronx
Park (New York City,, in
Fitchburg, Massachusetts, and
many other places arc glacial

mouth Rock. Scratches and
grooves across the surface of

marks of glaciers.
Biologists estimate that the
glacier started it's last retreat
about 20, 900 years ago: Study of
the ground moraine and other
deposits has shown us that
there was not just a single gla-
cier. There were four advances
and recessions Of the ice. All
over the world there are SINH
lar evidences, so whatever the
cause, it was worldwide.
Biologists have also found
evidences of repeated glacia-
tons in still earlier times.
These evidences have been pre-
served in ancient sedimentary
