Like England and like the United States, Nova Scotia is a melting pot of races. Here a Scotch soldier on leave visits Peggy’s Cove. Canada still resists conscription for overseas, its expeditionary force is volunteer. In Nova Scotia are English, French, German, Scotch, Welsh, Irish, Mic Mac Indians and the descendants of British slaves

Three dollars a square foot is the average price of these hooked rugs, proudly displayed by an Acadian woman. The price is no measure of the long tiresome homework involved in their manufacture. “Hooked” rugs, an old Nova Scotian handicraft, are made with a hooklike crocheting needle
