another greater and farther reaching
result. From the mingling Of the
tribes of the different peoples in
Italy with the old Roman blood
came the italians of the Middle
Ages. Upon the Italians was spent
most of the influence of the CRU
sades. Of the Italians at this time
Ridpath says, "The Italians did
more than any other people TO i'm
prove the knowledge of the world.
Columbus, Magellan and the Cab
OTIS were the transformed Caesars
and ,Scipios of the Middle Ages
Considering this we do not won"
der that it was an Italian who was
to take the first step towards further
migration. Instead Of finding a
shorter route to India Columbus
had found a shorter route to liberty.
He did not know what a grand
thing he had done by discovering
continent upon which there was to
come, in the form of a government,
the most splendid example of hui
man liberty.
Out of the migration to America,
for colonization is migration, springs
our own country.
The growth of our country
through migrations may we'll be
illustrated by Burke's american
Grafton" In it he says: "Such
is the strength with which popula-
ton shoots in that part of the
world, that state the number as
high as we will whilst the dispute
continues the exaggeration ends.
Whilst we are discussing any given
magnitude, they are grown TO it..
Whilst we spend our time in delib-
Grating ON the mode of governing
two millions, we shall find we have
millions more to manage. Your
children do not grow faster from
infancy to manhood than they
spread from families to communities
and villages to nations" These
nations Burke speaks of joined and
formed the United States of Amer
lea.
Greasy thought the country
would never extend farther than
the Rockies. We know that as
time went on, throu Oh the efforts
of sturdy pioneers, and such met
as Boone and Whitman, our infu
ence was extended far beyond the
Rockies to the Pacific.
| We have now traced the migra
tons up to the latter half of thu
nineteenth century, to what W.
might call the present.
You may say, if migration mean
progression and life, then show II
the migrations of today. Thi

progress, where have been the mi
grations?
The migrations of to-day are nc
only towards the West but to til
East and West, to the West int
America and to the East into tn

Today as of old we find the 'Teu
