THE GlANT’h GAUSEWAY.
W of the laments Bock Formation use
the Coast of Ireland.
Long. long ago. there were great
and mighty giants ‘whose homes
were the hills and mountains of
Great Britain, and some of them have
lelttraoesof their strength and prow-
ess to this day. The greatest of all
their works is the Giant’s Causeway,
on the north coast of Ireland. Fin
MacCooi was the name of the giant
who built this wonderful pathway
over the sea. Another giant named
Bonandonner lived just opposite on
the island of Studs, 50 miles away
over rough sea waters, and Fin Mac-
Cool wanted to get him to come over
to fight him. So he piled the rock
pillars right across to makea road
upon which he might walk dry shod.
So says tradition. _
We cannot wonder that wild sto-
ries and legends have grown up in
this weird and grand spot, where the
rocks take such fantastic shapes as
to resemble all sorts of artificial
structures. It was natural that a
simple and imaginative people like
the early Celtic tribe that dwelt
hero long ago should explain that re-
semblance by table and fancy. All
around the grand clilfs of the bay
are rows of pillars, tall chimneys,
clusters of pipes like the reeds of an
organ, and at a rugged spot where
the rock crystals seem to be stacked
in hundreds of thousands, low down
under the shelter of the tremendous
:liffs, the causeway runs out to sea.
These pillars or columns were
i’onned by the action of heat. Long.
long ago, during those terrible and
tremendous convulsions of nature
which molded the face of our own
country, a stream of fiery lava was
spread over a great part of the coun-
ties of Antrim and Londonderry. A
stream we can hardly call it, but
rather a mighty ocean of boiling
rock. You may imagine something
of the scale of these great natural
forces when you learn that this wave
of boiling hot basalt has cooled down
into lmls of 11 ml rock 1 000 for tdeep
in some Illdt'ft‘fl and spreads over an
area of NM square miles.
The mum-way itself is a long pier
or moire, on which you may walk for
200 yards out to Ht'll over this mosaic
of closely pur‘kml columns. Bt‘llillii
