England has only had one Glacial Period. G. W. Lamplugh pointed this out in 1906 before the British Association at York, and quite lately also in 1913 before the International Geological Congress in Canada. No one has yet attempted to contradict it.

To correlate the phenomena of the Ice Age within this little Alpine district with those in the great glacial district of Northern Europe constitutes undoubtedly no easy problem, and we cannot blame Penck if he delays to express himself upon it. “The master is still in his workshop, and has not yet finished his work.” No one can wish to urge him on with indecent haste, but it would certainly be most illuminating if he would let us see what he already has finished. For one thing it might put a check upon his pupils, so that they should not in their enthusiasm press too far, and further than he himself wishes.
