Lesson 13.
1. Write out and learn: _A mountain is land which rises high above the
level of the country round about it. A row of mountains joined together
by high ground is called a mountain range or chain._
2. Write out the following:--"Some mountains may be called water savings
banks. The rain freezes as it falls and becomes snow. On very high
mountains this snow never melts. It gets deeper and deeper, and the
lower part turns into ice. This ice creeps slowly down the mountain side
until it comes into air that is warm enough to melt it. The water which
flows away from the ice forms a river. Many large rivers begin in
melting ice-fields."
3. Describe the picture on page 55 {Illustration of a town on the Ganges}.
