Deuteronomy, Chap. 8 Verses 7-10.

“ For the Lord thy God bringeth thee into a good land, a land of brooks of water, of fountains and depths that spring out of valleys and hills; a land of wheat, and barley and vines and ﬁgtrees, and pomegranates; a land of oil olive, and honey; a land wherein thou shalt eat bread with- out scarceness, thou shalt not lack anything in it; a land whose stones are iron, and out of whose hills thou mayesi dig brass. When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the Lord thy God for the good land which he hath given thee. ”

Egmont Bay and the little vil- lages around it have no very strik- ing history. The people are mostly in comfortable circumstances and their pretty farms with well culti- vated ﬁelds and tidy farm buildings are the outcome of a hundred and twenty years of patient toil. But they have given to the country of their adoption many noted men. This ivould seem to bear out the fact that the original settlers al- though poor ivhen they came to the Island belonged to well educated families either in France or Acadia, as ilie people are very intelligent, and many of them educated their sons and daughters, who have ivell

(Canadian Press) TORONTO, Oct. 7,.—The question of what proportion of the Presby- terian Church in Canada united with the Methodist Church and the Congregational Churches to form the United Church of Canada is one over which church officials continue to disagree.

W. M. Rochester, odltor of the Presbyterian Record has told The Canadian Press that "85 per cent was publicly claimed for the unit- ing section, but a definite propor- tion was adopted by the Federal Commission, appointed to distrib- ute tile general property of the Presbyterian Church, namely 64 per cent, and division was made ac-

justiiled the sacriﬁce they must I have made to give them this ad- mrdlngly‘ _ vanmgm Mr. Rochester submttcd the fol-

lowing statement:

"Now the Dominion Census. 193i, compels a revision of that estimate for it gives the number of Presby- terians as 860,482. At the previous census, 1921, the number was 1;’ 409,407. Therefore the number in 1931 1s in excess of 50 per cent 0t that in 1921 by 165,792. Allowing for growth between 1921 and 1925, in keeping with the previous dc- cadc, a larger proportion than 40 per cent cannot be conceded as the part of the Presbyterian Church entering Union. Two able" analysts of th¢ census, s. former minister of the Crown, and the Deputy Reg- lstrar of e. provincial Supreme Court, support this conclusion, the former fixing 38 per cent as the proportion of' Presbyterians who went into the Union. Thus the Do- minion Census has turned the tab- les, demonstrating that the general property should have been distrib-

that is, instead of 84 per cent to the United Church and 38 per cen. to the Prcsbyterians, 38 to tht United Church and 62 per cent It the Presbytcrians."

From the earliest time they en- deavoured to have their children taught to read and write and most of the older inhabitants are able to follow the events of the clay with a marked degree of intelligence.

Like the noble Abbe the pioneers wore siibots, which alter the manner of the Jews they left at the church door, always assisting at Mass shoe- less on account of the noise made by their unwieldy foot coverings. In a few years they were able to tan the skins of their cattle and make of them good strong boots. In the early days the settlers made everything for their OWII use; their clothes were homespun from the wool from their own sheep. Flax was grown and it was the ambition of every bride to have in her dowry beautiful linen made by‘ herself from home spun flax. p These handicrafts were carried on mostly under the direction of the Sisters. Even today the Acadlan women of Prince County are well known for their handicrafts. Lovely homespun blankets, linen. home- made rugs and many other beauti- ful things are eagerly sought by vis- itors to their quaint villages.

Language Retained

The ﬁrst settlers endeavoured to retain and hand down to their chil- dren the language, customs and in- dustries of their native land. So well did they succeed that today, after a hundred and fifty years, the people sllll speak French and any- one paying it visit to Egmoiit Bay would almost imagine they irere in a little village in France.

The large and curious promontory known as Cape Eginont is interest-

lni; t0 geologists on account of the variety of stones to be found there. The sweep of the bay from its red

rocks to the frowning bluffs of Cape West is very ﬁne. Of!‘ Cape Egmont, a large fragment of rock stands iso- lated in deep water. This gave the settlement lngthe early clays the name of "La Roche."

Many beautiful hardwood trees grow near tlic church and along the banks of the little stream known as
