Applications for farm and domestic help as well as for workers in other branches, are far in excess of the possible supply, and the Salvation Army, through its extensive organization with branches in every part of the. country, has positions ready for all immigrants who arrive. In many cases the per- son is sent direct to his work. There fis another movement of people which is not as satisfactory, viz., that from the country to the city. There continues, as the month- ly commercial letter of the Canadian Bank of Commerce points out, a steady migration from rural to urban centres. As many of the men who left the farms for military service during the war are not now disposed to return to farming, it is doubtful if the resulting loss in the efficiency of agricultural labor will be repaired by the efforts of the Soldiers' Settle- ment Board to place ex-service men on the land, notwithstanding the fact that, in addition to the forty-five mil- A woman's heart is a fortress strong, Where your foes may never come, : With prancing steeds and glowing sword And the rat-tat of the drum.

CanadaEast and West | 1 | FTTFRS 10 HE EDITOR Dominion Happenings of Other Days: 63 Livingston Avenue, May 18th, 1920.--(To the Editor): From the letter of M. L. Adams in your issue of May 17th, ft would appear that he has misapprehended the aim of my letters on the subject of contagious diseases. These letters were intend- ed primarily, not to inconvenience any one family or person, but to call attention to thé need for an impartial administration of the law relating to such diseases. | 1 have every sympathy for *Mr. Adams in his situation, but feel that his doctor, if he believed, or had rea- son to fear, that the patients had scarlet fever, could follow no other course than to impose a quarantine. The guiding principle in such cases is simply stated. When in doubt, give the benefit of the doubt to the public. It is surely better that there should be a very occasional period of dis- comfort for one than that all should be exposed. It is not at all necessary to suppose that a duly qualified medi- cal practitioner will remain in doubt or ignorance for the full period of six weeks. My thanks to the Board of Educa- tion for a little step in the right di- rection. Because "of a faintness in conception, and obliqueness .in aim, of the adopted report, it is only a lit- tle one.

The Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 had declared Acadia to be the possession of the British people .but it did not fix the boundaries df the land. The French had previously claimed under that name the country from the Gulf of St. Lawrence to the western part of the State of Maine as well as the peninsula now called Nova Scotia. They now said that they had céded only the southern and western parts of the peninsula. The British insist- ed on the former application of the name; the French saw very clearly the importance of holding this dis- puted region north of the Bay of Fundy and along the southern shore of the Gulf of St. Lawrence. If it were to fall into British hands com- munication, at least in the winter, between Canada and the islands of St. Jean and Cape Breton would be cut off. French supremacy in the Gulf would be seriously threatened. The French, who had hoped to re- gain some day the whole of Acadia, were much alarmed when the British Government sent out 2,400 colonists under Cornwallis to form a great mi- litary and naval station at Halifax in 1749. La Loutre, the missionary among the Micmac Indians, was very active in the interest of the French. Largely through his influence the In- dians were very hostile to the Eng- lish, They prowled around Halifax " Planting potatoes this year comes as bard as dropping nickles into ev- ery hill. --i, a? | : That 'man who smuggled whiskey $n eggs was the genuine 100 per cent. shell game artist. tion of Twenty per cent. before he reaches the Canadian prices of to-day.
