deserted villages and abandoned parishes.
Even in the towns the artisans are leav-
ing their factories and besieging the emf

There are amazing figures which will
strike sharp arrows into the hearts of
Scotsmen who have pride in their COIN
try's history and a love of its soil. In
ten years a quarter OF a million of peo-
pie have been drained from the popula-
ton OF five millions. Canada alone
absorbs Scotsmen at the rate Of 1905
a year, and this year will see a large
increase above this figure. Even in East
Lothian, the most prosperous and fertile
province in Scotland, there are decreases
in population in half the towns and viii
lagos. In more barren districts depopu-
lation has been more swift and more
tragic. 1t is true to say that only the
old people and the Infirm and the very
poor have been left behind in villages
which ten and twenty years ago were
full of busy life and lusty manhood.

Canada already is transplanted Scot
land. 1t is the Scotland of the American

Musical soiree.

The music department OF the Col
lege of Idaho gave their first large
concert Wednesday evening in Ster-
ry Hall. A varied and elaborate
program of nineteen numbers was
rendered. Miss Hall deserves men
ton in the fact that her pupils
while under her instructions have
made exceptional showing of their
work in piano. Great care has
been taken in technique in both the
piano and violin departments. This
being the most essential point In
music. Mr. Albert Tompkins who
took the violin department the first
of March, has made a great study
of the instrument. Miss Lora Roup,
of Middleton, gave the only violin
number of the evening Walther's
prize song from the opera Die Meis-
tersinger, Wagner. Miss Roup play
ed we'll, and rendered the solo ex-
ceptionally fine.
On Tuesday afternoon the greater
number of the ladies in the vocal
department sang, and Wednesday
evening was given over to a greater
part of the men. However, there
were four numbers given by the
ladies'. A duet by Miss Pearl A
Hall, and Miss Marie Boone, Central
to solo by Mrs: Gertrude L. Bjor-
quist, the lady has magnificent quail
ity of voice, and rendered her solo
well. Miss Elvira Clambey rendered
soprano solo, MY Dreams" &C
companied with violin obligato by
Mr.. Tompkins. The obligato was
written especially for this solo. Mr..
Tompkins evidently was inspired
when he wrote this obligato, as it
pictures beautiful harmony and
thought. The other numbers rem
dered by this department were by
the men, and the finale of the even
ing was THE Bridal Chorus from
the Rose Maiden" sung by the
class. The vocal department should
certainly be inspiring to Mr.. Morris,
as their solos were we'll received by
the large audiences which attended.
We must thank these teachers for
the interest which they have taken
in the department, as great progress
has been made in the last eight
months when this class was organ
lied.
