rises the next day in Panama he will find that, because Panama Is on a point
of land jutting out Into tho ocean, the sun l>oth rises and sets in the Pacific.
In Its course the canal Is made to follow generally the valleys of the Mindl and
Ohngrea rivers on tho north or Atlantic side and the Rio Grande on the south
