After the pulp has been prepared and the outline of the con-tinent drawn, the pupils may be allowed to mold the map. Theproduction of the map of this continent outlined in the flat willbe sufficient for one or two lesson-periods. Europe has a verylong line of junction with Asia, therefore the best maps will 126 Molding Europe. show parts of this outlying continent. In some cases it is well tomodel Europe and Asia as one great land mass. In order thatthe Mediterranean Sea may be properly shown, Africa should bemodeled in part. These may be shown simply in the flat, withoutthe mountains and Fig. 59. Procure a good physical map and study the plateaus andmountains of Europe. Dampen the parts where the plateaus areto be placed, and spread out the fresh pulp in a thin layer. Puton the pulp in small quantities, and take care to make the workdelicate. Europe in its western part is mainly a network of moun- Modeling in Paper Pulp, 127 tain chains, without very extensive plateaus. The whole easternpart consists of a vast low plain continued in a moderately widestrip bordering the Baltic and North seas, and extending to theBay of Biscay. The dividing line between these two sections isformed by the secondary mountain system consisting of the Car-pathian, Sudetic, and Riesen mountains, and lower ranges ex-tending nearly to the shores of the North Sea.
