There are a million and quarter more women than men in the British Isles today, and one of the biggest after the war tasks assigned the Salvation Army in Britain is to stimulate emigration and to direct it to those colonies in the British Empire such as west ern Canada and portions of Africa and Australia where there are more male than female inhabitants. The prospects of placing female domes- tice in the United States has not been overlooked.
 The Salvation-Army has despatch ed several shiploads of emigrants to Canada already We help them make arrangements to leave the old country, provide transportation when necessary and through our world wide organization see to. it that the emigrants are safely set tied in the new land
 Our records show that the girls who emigrated some years ago to certain sections where women were in the minority.
