They are set at every turn in the course through the lake, and are so arranged that vessels go ing in opposite directions, steered by the lights, will be sure of passing each other at safe distance. For there are often a number of ships front all parts of the world passing through Gatun at one time, and it Is no unusual sight to see a great number of ocean-going vessels anchored among the tropical islands of this greatest of artificial lakes.
