Canadian Chaplain Services. ; Tune, "Holy Father in Thy Mercy.' Lt.-Col. George McLaren Brown, the European manager of the C.P.R., writes to the - "Tariff Reformer and Empire Monthly," in England, urging a comprehensive scheme by which the returned \soldlers could be pjaced on the land in so far as they desired it-- a scheme by which lands closed to the public would be fully opened up--not a few parcels of land, such as were noticed in the press,- and which would not give a square foot to all who might seek this means of settlement, but a plan by which' large" numbers could be accommodated on the lands in the Mother Country. Mr. Brown refers to the plan of the C.P.R., which offers improved farms, in selected'"colonies, selected'"colonies, with distinctive military nanies, improved by the company ; and assisted assisted colonization farms of 320 acres each, selected by the intending settler, and then improved by him with assistance assistance from the company. Easy terms of payment are offered, carried over twenty years ; bwt the point that Mr. Brown insists on is that-it is not people out of the workhouse that Canada Canada wants, because such are not desired desired in the Dominion, but people who are likely to succeed. He urges that the whole question of reconstruction be tackled with vigor on the other side.
