Nearer the center of the horseshoe a V-shaped section of the overlying hard rock has broken down because of the removal of the sup- porting material. This breaking away of the surface layer is diverting a continuously in creasing proportion of the total flow down the center and away from the wings, he explained, and unless it is stopped the central gorge will enlarge until the water is channeled throu Your Credit Is Good At MARX No complex system —merely pay a small amount down and the balance in easy weekly or monthly payments.
