This is shown graphically by a full black line, Figure 20, page 72. 

 The normal distribution is shown as a dotted line. 



The bergs that the patrol were able to track in drifts during the 

 ice season are recorded on Figure 21. 



A compilation has been made of all the drifts of icebergs around 

 the Grand Bank that the ice patrol has been able to follow, and this 

 chart is shown here.
