It was, indeed, on her sc Jacques Cartier, the envoy of tr o‘ France, landed for the first 1534. She did not, however, b exist until 1608 when Samuel de Timmins Kiwanis Club had an unâ€" usual feature, but a very pleasing one, at the weekly luncheon on Monday a* the Empire hotel, when the speakers for the day were two students at Timâ€" mins High and Vocational School, Miss Christine Rose, 14 years old, speaking on Nova Scotia, and Master Roger de Brabant, 15 years, on Quebec, these +aâ€" lented pupils giving a very effective presentation of the history, developâ€" ment and background of these two m vinces. The addresses were noteworth; for the care and study with which they had been prepared and the though*fulâ€" ness and talent with which the cases were presented. j# Some Interesting Points in the History of Nova Sscotia In opening her address, Miss Rose made it plain that Nova Scotia is by no means "new" land. ‘"Nearly a thousand years ago," she said, "Some brave Norsemen fleeing from the law, discovered Greenland and started , a colony. Other Vikings on their way to join them were blown out of their way and sighted America but sailed on to Greenland. Lief Ericson called Labraâ€" dor Helluland, because it was so dreary and forbiddirng. Newfoundland was called Markland, and Nova Scotia, beâ€" cause of its wild wheat, honey dew and wild vines was named Vinland. The Norse took some some lumber to their colony in Gre@nland, and their tales of Vinland inspired several other Vikings to attempt, in vain to found colonies there. As the colony in Greenland died out, the Norsemen gradually stopped crossing the Altantic to America. ‘The Norse never realized that they had disâ€" covered a new continent, for they alâ€" ways came to America by way of Iceâ€" land and Greenland and so crossed no great stretches of water. They just thought of Vinland, Markland and Helâ€" luland as another part of Europe." , In interesting way the young spqkâ€" er proceeded to toll of the visit of the French to this continent in 1604. The attempts to colonize the country were sketched in able way and the difficulties made plain, especially the winter scourge of scurvy and the plans tried to overcome this handicap. Eventually there was an influx of French into Acadia. "These Acadians came from the lowlands of France," said the speakâ€" er, "and so settled on the marshlands near Port Royal, and later on the land rround the Minas Basin . . . These people were neither enterprising nor vivacious like their Canadian cousins but they made good homes and loved their new country." Miss Rose referred at some length to the foun@ing of Haliâ€" fax and the British attempt to absorb the Acadians, the final outcome being the expulsion of the Acadians with all the horrors of that episode. Next the young speaker referred t the influx of United Empire Loyalists to Nova Scotia after the Thirteen Colâ€" onies broke away from Britain. She showed ‘the effect of this addition to j Nova Scotia‘s population. "The stanâ€" dard of education in Nova Scotia," she said, "is very high, mostly because the Loyalists who came there had good edâ€" ucations, and desired their children tc bave the same. Now, Nova Scotia‘s chief exports are said to be ministers and university professors." In concluding her clever address Miss Rose said:â€"In wartime Nova Scotis thrives. Her harbours are crowded and her ships are sailing the seas. In Haliâ€" fax, now, long lines wait in front of each restaurant, cafe and theatre. Solâ€" diers, sailors and airmen swarm throwâ€"h its old streets and jokingly hold ihei noses when the "sweet smell of stale fish" comes floating up # them. The cities and towns of Nova Scotia are busy and bustling, as they are clearing staâ€" tions for airmen in training who come to Canada and for food and war supâ€" plies on their way to Britain. The farmers are working harder than ever before to raise ‘"Bumper crops." Since the break with the Thirteen Colonies, Nova Scotia has been too far from other markets to sell her food at a profit would make her prosperous. Now, as in the last war, Nova Scotia prospers, but when peace comes, as it came last time, it is to be hoped that she will | not go into a decline." | fax the the the History of Nova Scotia® and Quebec Effectively Presented; by Students Timmins Kiwanis Club Pleased and Informed by Able Adâ€" dresses by Christine Rose, 14 Years and Master Roger de Brabant, 15 years, Who Dealt with the Development and Backgrounds of These Two Provinces.

The low temperatures in winter and the snow, and the frequent attacks by the Iroquois Indians did not attract new settlers. Until 1666 only an average of ten settlers per year added to the population of the colony. But after 1666 Quebece prospered greatly. Jean Talon, "the Great Intenâ€" dant," was sent to Quebec that year. At once he sought the fullest informaâ€" tion. One of his first acts was to order a census of all people and all live stock in the colony. He saw at once the needs, one of these being popâ€" ulation. He sought increased populaâ€" tion both by immigration and by early marriages. Hundreds came out each year from France at Talon‘s suggestion. (Continued On Page Three) caline could bec settlers came chiefly from the great agricultural provinces of Normandy and Picardy in France, thus explaining the fact that Quebec is predominantly an agricultural and rural community." The speaker referred to the fact that the settlers built their houses close toâ€" gether for protection against prowling Indians. Each community had a carâ€" penter, shoemaker and men of other trades and callings. There was a comâ€" munity shed where food, clothes, tools and seed, promised to the settlers were distributed and where they met to talk over difficulties and for social chats.
