Most of river of the middle .\rctlc, B'.ick8 river i of the eastern Arctic, and Thelon river flowing to Hudson Bay. The coast line Included between the mouths of these rivers exceeds 1,500 miles. It may readily be appreciated that as the head waters of all these , the exploration throughout these re- rivers closely approach the lake Heries ] gions was carried on in the earlier the route by these waters is import mt ' in giving access to a vast area of in- land country and an extensive strech of ciiast line, in tht3 connection It might be noted that a practicable water route \V3B discoverel in the course cjf the survey connecting with Copper- 1 mine river. I It was observed that the country be- came le.sg rough toward llie north and east and that the accumulation of soil was ^renter wi'h a corresponding im- provement in the amount and varipiy of the vegetation. The name "Barren Lands'" as applied to the greater por- tion of this country is a misnomer. It is true that trees do not grow beyond a certain line, and to the north and east of this line areas of barrenness exist where soil is either lacking or too coar.se for ordinary plant life, but in the greater portion of the country a variety or shrubs and mosses cover the hills and grasses flourish in the swampy valleys. The animal of outstanding intereat, native to the country, is the Barren Lands caribou. Vast herds range these areas, leaving the open lands for the woodlands for a short period in the depth of winter. The country traver- sed foinns the outer fringe of the form- daysâ€" from 1770 to 1834 â€" in the way of various overland Journeys In con- nection with Arctic expeditions by sea, searching for a Northwest passage, to the Orient. These lands then lay far from the outposts of settlement and, with the primitive forms of transpor- tation available at that time, esti- mations of their possible value and re- sources were bound to be based upon restricted .standards. From the close of that period of exploration to the present day, over a span of nearly a century, with Its great strides in settlement and in the development of transportation and economic machinery in general, little has been done to reconsider the pos- hiblllties of these regioas in the light of present-day conditions. In order to obtain first hand information about the country, and at the same time lay down a skeleton system of survey for all possible future development pur- . poses, control traverse and explora- ! tlon surveys were extended during the past season through a series of water- ways lying to the north and east of the easterly part of Great Slave lake. This work was carried on by G. H. ' Blanchet, D.L.S., of the staff of the Topographical Survey of Canada, De-jer range of the musk-ox and from the partment of the Interior.

Racial Origin â€" ^Irlsh. Source â€" A given name. These family names are the Angli- cized forms of an Irish clan name of considerable antiijulty, and the clan bearing it traced its ancestry back to ' Fargal, the 156th monarch of Ireland, j through Conor, his second eldest son. j The Irish form of the family name : Is "O'Gruagaln," or more anciently ' t5u Cii^f^ln," and ft^-striiffes "the : descendants (or clan) of Gruagain." i "Gruagaln" was a given name among ! the ancient and medieval Gaels, in ; both the Irish and the Highlanders of i Bcotlad. It Isi a compound of two ; Gaelic words, and means "the hairy i one." â-  I But among the settlers of the Scot- tlfih Highlands, who came originally j from Ireland, principally in the period ; from the third to the sixth centuries, | It either never was developed Into a j family name, or if It did. It has since | died out, for it Is not to be found in | Scotland except In a few scattering Instances owing to Irishmen having settled In that country in comparative- ly modern times. It is not numbered tn the authoritative lists of Highland (dan and sept names. The clan systems of both Ireland and Scotland, once the backbone of the political and social structure of those countries, have, of course, exist- ed for a great many generations only as family connections. As political and social structures they have suc- cumbed to the English legal and social order and the complexities of modern Industrial life and material civiliza- tion. • LOFTUS Variations â€" Lofting, Lofts, Loftlson. Racial Origin â€" English. Source â€" A given name, also a locality. There are two distinct sources from which the family names in this group have come. In reality there are two groups of names, buT. It Is better to con- sider them as one, owing to the fact that their similarity of sound and spelling has often led to the substitu- tion of one for another at various times in the past. One source has already been re- ferred to in a previous article. It is that of the locality. "Loft-house" Is the clearest spelling of It, the meaning being, of course, "tail' house" or "iiigh building," though the spelling which was more frequently found in the ear- ly middle ages, and from which the name Loftus has developed, was "loft- hus." There is a locality of this name in Yorkshire. The other source of the family name is the given name of "Leofthegn," one not unpopular among the .-Vnglo-Sax- ons In the pre-Norman days, and one which survived the Norman invasion to a sufficient extent to give rise to family names in several localities. It is a given name derived from the words of "love" and "theyne"(fol!ower or soldier), but the actual meaning of the name was "beloved soldier." • card and again read it.
