Cano, of 'Loronto Uni- versity, t00OK his audience in imagination on a delightful Journey through Spain. 'Lhe il- luscrations showed in a graphic manner the mountains, the gypsy caves, the wonderful buldings, and the -interesting people what compose the picture of thus little known country. Among the most interesting of the people are the Basques, who claim that they are the direct descendants of Adam and live, and who speak the lan- 'L'his may be so, as few people people, .. Because of the: invasions of Spain "ine $he early 'centuries 'there are evidence8'of the Ger- maiic people, the Goths having Moorish influences may also be noted in the southern part of the peninsula; but the Spaniards never intermarried with _ the Moors because of religious dif- terences. Indeed the Spaniards dred years to preserve Christ- ianity in the land. - of coal and iron in Spain, there is a growing industrial outlook; and in the years to. come that counfry will become a commer- cial factor. At present the life is simple, the chief industry be- ing agriculture, largely carried on in somewhat primitive style. The influence of modern life is making its way and there is a tendency to progressiveness-- some good, some not so good. Spanish people are kindly, and are inclined to be self-satisfied. Honesty and generosity are out- standing characteristics. = Trav- ellers who are not known to the in finding accommodation; but if they are properly introduced another difficulty arises--it is hard to induce the people to ac- cept pay for the service and hospitality rendered. A notable fact is that there are no Jews in Spain. When they were expelled in "1492 there was no bloodshed. The Jews would . not become Christians nor 'would they accept their re- sponsibilities as citizens for the country's defence, so they were asked to leave... The social structure of Spain has greater extremes than are known in Canada. The grandees are very rich and most of the peasants are very poor. This condition is righting itself, and the introduction of manufactur- ing industries id inducing the in- vestment of wealth, while steady work is raising' the standard of living among a people who were not inclined to take life too seriously in the matter of work. It is useless to try to describe the pictures, They were clear and showed the beauties and in- not be possible in any other way, ture many questions were asked, and the Shanks of the audience were' oy ressed to Prof. Cano for his i luminating address. -- voor : DIED PRENTICE---At Sort Perry, t Graduate of Trinity Medical Colles i | fo slaty BE North East dy guage of the Garden of Eden.| can understand this mysterious come in from the north, Some| % tought the Moors for eight hun- Because there is an abundance - people sometimes have. difficulty |. terests of the country as would].
