the urgency of a redistribution of the

Promise of certain advantage to the

Under stimulus effected by certain

Twenty Thousand British Women,.
Approximately 20,000 women from
the British Isles moved to Canada in
the course of the twelve months, or
roughly about one-half of the number
of men. To form a more adequate ap-
preciation of
p•preciation-of the normal rate of move-
ment, however, it must be considered
that in the 1923 movement of men
from the British, Isles were included-'
about 1,000 farm lallarers and 12,000
harvesters brought from the British
Isles. This would indicate that in nor-
mal years the movement of men and
women would be nearer an equality.
There is no question of the oppor-
tunity in Canada for British women,
especially in household and allied pur-
suits. The war ushered in a new era
for Canadian women, merely one of
the indications of which was the al.

chisement They breve come to take
a greater part in the public lite of the
country and to enter into multitudin-

life towards which they had no teeth
nation and in which, for the main part,
there was no room tar them in pre-war -
days. This bas resulted in a demand
for capable women trained in house-
hold management to fill their places,
and the British woman is in great and
favorable demand for such.
