Tree Trea ie egeiion Area, of 197, lone wre a+ follows N= 20.08%; F771 385; Male 50 
female 108 p.c. or 8 p.c. surplus males. 
Table 31, classifying the data by linguistic groups, presents some interesting facts. The 
Germanic group had a surplus of 9 p.c. males, the Slavic of 22 pe, the Scandinavian of 31 
pc. and the Latin and Greek group of 51 pe. It would seem clear from these figures that 
we are confronted with a somewhat unique alignment of groups in respect to sex distribu- 
tion. The German, Duteh and Flemish people and the Slavs appear to have come to this 
country and brought their families, while the Scandinavians, the Icelanders excepted, have 
sent large numbers of their surplus men. The latter tendency seems to be even more 
marked in the Latins and Greeks. 
The differences in sex distribution are seen in sharper contrast when we consider only 
those people of foreign stock who have been born in foreign countries. Unfortunately, the 
data for the foreign born are available only by countries of birth; consequently, the figures 
in many cases are not comparable with those for origin. Notable among the countries from 
which immigrants of several origins come are Russia, which sends to Canada a large number 
of Jews, and Austria, from which large numbers of Germans come and also a certain pro- 
portion of immigrants of Jewish extraction. Though immigrants from the Ukraine are prin- 
cipally of Slavic origin, there is a considerable admixture of other stocks. The bulk of 
the immigrants from Belgium are Flemish, but large numbers of Walloons also come from 
that country. While the Latins and Greeks predominate in the -immigration from Rou- 
mania, many Slavs and some Jews also come from that country, and similarly with a 
number of other countries. 
However, in certain cases, such as the British Isles, Asia, and the Scandinavian Penin- 
sula, no great error is introdueed in identifying origin with country of birth, The same 
applies to the larger territorial groups of Europeans. Few of North Western European
