Sir Wyville Thompson and, later, Sir John Murray, unraveled some
of the mysteries of the hidden depths of the sea, such as the
Gulf stream and the waters that wash the Cape of Good Hope. They
have found that there are currents flowing over one another in
different directions, as in the case of air-currents above us.
The aim is to be able to utilize these cross-currents, both of
air and water, for the benefit of man.
Still more were it wise to use the many and even the contrary currents
of life so as to make all serve man’s best interests.
