AMERICANS TO CANADA
Flock to English Soil to Secure Home
stead Lands.

Ottawa, Ont, Dec. 21.-During the
ten months ending with October 8.
90 Americans representing all but
three of the states and territories of
the United States, made homestead
entries in Canada.
These figures, compiled today by Off
Gals of the interior department at OF
tawa, furnish striking evidence of the
claim being laid to Canadian soil by
Americans. With the figures for No
vember and December still to be re-
ceived from the various registration
offices. it is expected the entry list for
the year will show over 1900 Ameri-
cans as homestead applicants. The
states of Delaware and Mississippi and
the District of Columbia are the only
sections of the United States not rep
resented among the homesteaders.

When newspaper makes an agreg-
ious error, it is called bull. OF such
nature was the article appearing as
follows in last weeks Statesman:
Mrs. Mary O'Steam of the Grand
Lodge of the United Brothers Of
Friendship and Sisters of the Myster-
ious Ten, who had in charge the is
suing of the policies, wishes to state
that there was a misunderstanding
between her and the grand secretary
at the time of issuing the policies to
the members, and that she was un-
aware that her trip to Missouri and
Kansas was interfering with the work
of the order.
In the eighth line the words "at the
time" should have been "as to the
time,' giving an entirely different
meaning. We regret that poor proof
reading made Mrs. O'Steam say that
she had trouble with Mr.. Cammell,
when she only meant to say that she
did not have the same understanding

The excellence of the revival is fur
ther assured by the fact that 1t will be
