Does it takethe sand so far ? The little rills cannot move the larger the large stream along the roadside may move quite largestones. Where will the mud of the water be left ? Is there a long slope near the school ? What kind of soilcovers the surface. Do you know what is underneath ? Find some sand; some fine loam of the meadow. Bring clayfrom the banks of the stream. Here is sova^ gravel. Some day when the dark water is rushing down the slope ofthe roadway, go out and dip up a glassful of the water. Let itstand all night in the glass. What is it that you find at thebottom ? Mjp Modeling in Geography. 21. Fig. The Hill. 1. The child may now be led to represent the hill by model-ing it in the sand. 2.
