The governments of Quebec and Nova Scotia are alive to the situation and have taken an advantage of a deâ€" cline in New England industrial prosâ€" perity to further the claims of the mother country. In the year 1921, 542 settlers, worth in excess of $181,000, came to Nova Scotia, though it is not possible to say what on of thoze come from across t:% the same period, however, 308 j from the New Hngiand states to Queâ€" bec province.

Like other Welsh names, it is only in the last few hundred years that it has become hereditary, for while the Welsh from the earliest perlod used the descriptive or occupational surâ€" name, and also the surname indicating parentage, it was really only under English influence that any of these surnames outlived the individuals bearing them, to be assumed by their children and grandchildren. In this the Welsh differed from the other re presentatives of the Celtic race, the Scots and the Irish, who developed real family nam>os from clan names. Here is a group of family names, the origin of which you could hardly be expected to guess, unless you are one of those comparatively few perâ€" sons in the world today who are faâ€" milfar with the Welsh language.

In this instance his given name was "Gothfrith," which would seem to indicate possession of some Danish or Norse blood along with the Gaelic. He was surnamed the "Gamhnach," a word difficult to translate satisfactorily into English, but indicating a cow that is nearly dry.

In their growth these plants create an apparatus within themselves for this special purpose. The Ruseian steppe grass builds an apparatus of coiled fibre which twists and untwists according to the inâ€" fluence of the weather. plants respond quickly to exterfial stimulus, and that there must be some machinéry whereby they effect those responses, Professor Keeble drew attention to the farsighted "faculity‘" of certain plants which make provision for the sowing of their own seeds efter they themselves are dead.

Water, owâ€" ing to & curious phenomen of the atâ€" mosphere, boils at about one degree (Fahr.) for every 590 ft. climbed. An instrument called a hypsometer, or boilling point thermometer, regisâ€" tere the boiling point at nny altitude reached, and therefore indirectly re gisters as well the height above ser In parts of South America there are monasteries on the mountain‘s sides, at heights of 10,000.to 14,000 ft., where water boils so quickly that it does not get hot enough to cook meat, potatoes, or other foods. The fact that the boiling point of water changes at varying altitudes, leads to many very strange situations. It is possible for the pressure of the air to be reduced by mountain climbâ€" ing until the boiling point is at the same level as the freezing point. Ordinary mercurial barometers were also carried by the Mount Everest exâ€" pedition, and the readings obtained from them were used to check the figures given by the aneroid. The instrument which is used by the majority of mountaineers is the aneâ€" roid. ‘This instrument has no mercury, but depends on a mechanical contracâ€" tion of a thin metal plate for its methâ€" od of registering the air pressure meaâ€" surement. opens interest in the various methods by which heights can be ascertained.
