channels, the east channel being
used for large vessets and that on
the West side for smaller craft.

harbor and alongside them there are

The ehiet attraction for tho tour-
ist to St. John is the Reversible Falls,
a curious phenomenon due to the
great tIdes. When the tide of Fundy

river pour under the great railway
bridge in the form of rapids. But
when the tide begin e to rise it

river and gushes up into its bed
with great forte. Thies continue nn -
til full Ude. Then as the tide re
cede*, the immense volume of water
in the bed or the river dashes to the
Bay in a massive whirling sheet of
'foam. At low tide the piled up wat..
era of the river aro higher than the
sea, and at high tide the incoming
flood of the Bay of Punily is higher
than the river. That 18 th ixplanis-
