That the earth is growing temporarily warmer is shown by the mountain glaciers. These are made by varying temperature and moisture to increase and diminish in size during periods of years that may be found to be more or less regular cycles, and a period of quite general decrease began about forty-live years ago.
This has continued, with many local interruptions, as in the case of Glacier Blanc, which advan-
ced from 1889 to 1896. The latest report includes ninety glaciers in the Swiss Alps, and many others in the French and Italian Alps, in Norway, Greenland, the Caucasus, the Pamir, the North-West United States.
Western Canada and Africa, and practically all are growing smaller.
In the Savoy Alps and the Pyrenees small glaciers have quite disappeared.
