In the past ten years the increase in the population of Scotland, was. only a quarter., of a - million.\",.The previous decade the increase had been half a million. This state of affairs is due, it is contended, to the large emigration and it is deplored by many local Scotsmen in the home land. A more serious aspect of the case is that while the city-population- continues to increase the-land is being gradually deserted. . It. 'Seems strange that in the twentieth century there should be an outcry against the emigration that was so conspicuous a feature of the early part of the nineteenth. The descendants of .these early immigrants (form a very large part of the popula- M tion of Canada and are to be found in every city of the United States. They form, on the whole, a very prosperous and enterprising people. The descendants of Highland fishermen and crofters are filling chairs in universities and are heads of great business and industrial concerns. They have been among the successful pioneers in \"<. every province. In every profession and in every legislature in Canada they fill honorable places. Canada in the past century had not as, great an attraction for the prosper- our farmers of the Lowlands as it had for the clansmen of the Highlands. But wherever these settled their knowledge and.skill in the cultivation of the land ensured prosperity. Our own province is today An much the same position as Ontario and the provinces of the Atlantic coast were a hundred years ago. Our valleys are ready for the strong arms which, with experience and intelligence, will change the forest into meadow, farm or orchard. There are many openings for shrewd business men in the ports that are being, opened up and in the larger cities. In one respect there is a great difference between the settlement of this province and that of .the old'colo- nies on the Atlantic coast. Rapid communication and the advancement of science have robbed pioneer life of most of its hardships. ' There are few of the comforts or even the luxuries of life which-are not-enjoyed by the residents of our new cities. The rapid development of our resources and the consequent increase - in ��������� wealth have created a demand for women's labor, not only in the home but in stores and offices. To fill such places the Scottish girl is especially suited; Strong, skillful and intelligent, her services are in demand everywhere. . It is not to be wondered at, that the loss of the farmer and rural laborer is looked upon as a misfortune at home, nor that Scotland is loth to lose so large a number of its young women. But it cannot be expected that Canada can experience any other feeling than satisfaction at the acquisition of thrifty, capable and industrious citizens. It may be said that of such people, those who have come to Victoria and its vicinity within the last quarter of a century, have, almost without exception, improved their circumstances, while many have prospered greatly. ���������. Very few ~ of these would be willing to live again in Scotland, dearly as they cherish the memories and- the traditions of their homeland. They, in common with their fellow citizens, are ready to extend a hearty welcome to all Scottish immigrants.

That this \"sure road\" is available to. all residents of Canada who are over 5 years of age, irrespective of sex, health, age or worldly position, is worthy of consideration. Parents may begin the purchase of Annuities for their children, or children who have prospered, may find in this scheme a safe way to provide an income for fathers and mothers who have not been so fortunate in life as they. On the other hand, people who have a limited income can increase that sum substantially by the transfer of their capital to the Government for the purchase of an Annuity.
