CANADA'S CENSUS
A THIRTY-TWo PER CENT IN.
CREASE IN THE PAST TEN
YEARS.


That Canada has come rapidly to
the front n the past ten years is am
ply shown in the results of the census
recently made public. The population
/ of the Dominion is now placed at
7,OS1,S69, which with outlying points
| to be heard from, may bring it I'D to
! IL millions as compared with SSH
315 in 1901. Though these figures are
large, they do not present total as
large as was expected but they do
show . greater increase of PEI entage
in population for the decade than any
| similar increase in the United States,
The highest percentage ever reached
| by the Republic was 24qo; the per-
centage of increase in Canada for the
| decade is 1920. Thus it will be seen
that the provinces west Of the lakes,
| with the great broad fertile acres
ready for the sowing and immediate
reaping of grain and the Valleys of
British Columbia capable of producing
fruit with which to supply its neigh
boring provinces east of the noun
tains, have attracted numbers, which
| has exceeded the most optimistic Of
the expectations of ten years ago.
Upon the prairies Of the ten years
| ago there was but spare scattering
| of people; but today, no matter in
which way you go, take any direction,
and you find homes and farms and
good ones too, occupied by the very
best class of people in good sized set
| Elements with plenty of room for five
or six times as many more. The pop
| ulation of Alberta is set down at S72,-
919, as compared with 1902 in 1901;
Saskatchewan 453,50S as compared
! with 1920 in 1901; Manitoba's 454,-
| 691 compares well with its 255,211 in
| 1901; and so does that of British Co.
lumbia-362,768 as against 17S,657 in
1901; but in a territory as large as
! this a population of 1,643,000 is little
more than discernihle in point of num-
! Sers. The work through it has been
great. Look at the towns that have
been built up; its cities, Winnipeg
with 1876, 900; Vancouver with upwards
of 100000; Calgary with $4,000; Ed
monitor, Regina, Saskatoon; Leth-
bridge; Medicine Hat, Moosejaw,
| splendid cities-none better any
where; we'll maintained and equipped.
These have come with existence and
been built as they have been built by
reason of the splendid agricultural
country by which they are surround
| ed. The population is scarcely dis
cernible. A population ten or twelve
times that shown by the recent
census could be easily maintained in
even greater wealth than that which
maintains the present numbers. There

LOOK BEYOND
THE MERE
VACATION
CBv Barbara Boyd.J


With many, thoughts are farming va
cationward. To the most of us, vaca-
ton is a pleasant subject to dwell up
on For the time being, the most en-
trancing literature is the alluring rail-
road guide books to the Detachable
Land, and hotel prospectuses Of the
heavenly abode provided by each par
ticuIar hosiery for all who will come
Jhither
In the face of 50 many wonderful
places to go to and happy places 10
stay in, some find it extremely difficult
to make a choice. Others there are
who know exactly the sort of vacation
they want But in both cases there
are some other things to be thought
upon than the mere going or abiding.
With some, vacation expresses a
frantic desire to get away from the
work that they have been doing, 20
reyel for a week, two weeks, or
month, in pleasure, in gayety, in ire
sponsibility. They are like children
let out of school, or prisoners set free,
But these who are so hungry for
vacation are the very ones who should
plan it the most thoughtfully, if they
want to get the most out of it.
Vacation thoughts should include
first of all what is ones chief vacation
need. Is it rest, or change, or new
friends, or new interests?
Vacation thoughts should go back to
past vacations and think over those
that have been failures and those that
have been great successes.
Vacation thoughts should search out
why one holiday was enjoyable and
another a disappointment Was it che
place itself that was visited? Was it
the vacation companions? Was it the
amusements INDUCED in? Was it be-
ing overborne by the petty Invitations
of travel and change? Was it having
the right or wrong clothing? Look
, back over the vacations of the past
and search out the things that made or
marred them. Then try to repeat the
good features in this years holiday
and to avoid the unpleasant ones
Vacation thoughts should look be-
yOnd the mere vacation itself. They
should courageously face the return
and they should plan to insure a com
ing back with a rested body and a re-
newed appetite for the work that lies
ahead. Vacation thoughts should not
stop with the vacation itself, or one
may return with an empty purse, a
WORKOUT wardrobe, and a strong dis
taste for the workaday year at hand
Vacation thoughts should include
some permanent returns-new friends,
broader outlook on life, a better
knowledge of human nature, a keener
appreciation of the physical world.
The vacation should not be altogether
over and done with when the vacation
trunk is unpacked. There should he

WATSON'S LOVE
FOR SQUIRRELS
AND THE BIRDS.
'CFrom Our Dumb Animals)

Ut TON OAI DuLlID <Atll+iLtl4s2.}
IA pair Of wrens had nested in
corner of the awning on the back
porch Of Tom Wa:son's house at
Thomson, Georgia. 1t was a canvas
awning, which shaded the windows Of
the summer dining room and ran the
length of the porch. When the tiny
nest was discovered the awning was
down, and down it stayed, through
sunny days and dark days until The
little birds were feathered and had
flown out into the world. Then the
awning was drawn up.
The summer was not quite over,
and the wrens soon had another nest
built in the awning and filled with
eggs. This time the awning stayed
up, through cloudy days and sunny
days, until Tom Watson's tiny friends
were strong enough TO fly away into
the trees and shrubbery around the
house.
Last spring Mr.. Watson decided to
add two side porches to his house.
When the carpenters came to put up
the timbers for the porch on the east
ern side they found that pair Of
wrens had nested in an angle of a
window Tom Watson was told about
it, and the work of bliuding that porch
stopped right there. The contractors,
carpenters, bricqlayers and concrete
men-all waited for the little wrens
to make their start in life. AS soon
as they flew away, the work went on.
The birds and the squirrels are
