Fireman Bar- rete later tried to creep in on the floor and drag the bed out but was unsuceessful.

The first boat will enter in September. Going from the Atlantic to the Pacific ocean a boat enters the canal on the north - side of the Isthmus of Panama at a small suburb called Cristobal. Seven miles inland it comes to the Gatun locks. These lift the boat to a level of eighty-five feet above the sea. This level is maintained across the famous’Gatun artificial lakes and through the Culebra cut to the Pedro Miguel (called Peter McGill by American workmen) locks thirty-nine miles from the Atlantic ocean and eleven miles from the Pacific ocean. The Pedro Miguel and Miraflores locks lower the boat to the Pacific sea level. Thence It goes to the other terminus, called La Boca, the Spanish” words for mouth, a suburb of the City of Panama. = The odd sensation will be given a traveler when he rides through the canal from Colon to Panamn of going south and east instead of west, and when he rises the next day in Panama he will find that, because Panama Is on a point of land jutting out into the ocean, the sun botb rises and sets in the Pacific. In its course the canal is made to follow generally the valleys of the Mindi and.

When the work was started there was a saying HE Gatun locks proved to be quite a:determining factor in the building ~ of the Panama-canal. that “the length of time it takes to build the canal depends on the time it takes to build the Culebra cut.” But later the words “Gatun locks” were substituted for “Culebia cut.” There is n system of three twin locks at Gatun. Two million five hundred thousand cubic yards of concrete were nsed in their construction In conjunc- tion with the Gatun damn they serve to hold back the tremendous force of water from the Gatun lake, which is eighty-five feet above sea level. levels of locks raise boats from the Atlantic level to the eight-five foot level. ‘Three Depar tment = . 40%; Beltrami Ave. %P O0® .
