Long after this wonderful event in the Earth's history, when the human species was spread over a good deal of Asia, Europe, and Africa, migration to the American continents began in attempts to find new feeding grounds and unoccupied areas for hunting and fishing.

As the winter set in with its customary Canadian severity the real trouble of the French began. They did not suffer from the cold, but they were dying of scurvy.

The British arriving in South Africa at the close of the eighteenth century really came there to prevent the French from seizing the Cape of Good Hope from the Dutch East India Company.

Iceland, though it lies so far to the north that it is partly within the Arctic Circle, is, like Norway, Scotland, and Ireland, affected by the Gulf Stream, so that considerable portions of it are quite habitable.

There is or there has been in the past much selfishness in the northern White man's motives in opening up Africa, and in his interference in the disorders of the Black man or the Brown.

As soon as the news of the Cabot voyages reached the King of Portugal he arranged to send an expedition of discovery to the far north-west, perhaps to find a northern sea route to Eastern Asia.

Nova Scotia as a British colony also came into being as another result of these adventurous British expeditions to North America in the reign of James I.

In 1628 came the first English attack on Canada.

Even in South Africa--as in southeastern United States, the West Indies, and South America down to Brazil--the White man cannot exist without calling in the Negro to help him. He does not seem able, as in two-thirds of Australia, to do the rough field work, the digging in mines, the road-making, the hauling of stones and timber, the distribution of irrigation water. He could perhaps steel himself to face this labor, but as long as there is the Negro to be called in he prefers to employ him.
