N COMUNN GAIDHEALACH, or The Hichland Association, has for the last sixteen years been doing brave pioneer work for Gaelic teaching, Gaelic literature and Gaelic music, with a comparatively small membership and little money at its disposal. It has organised this great FEILL or HIGHLAND BAZAAR for the double purpose of spreading a knowledge of its work and objects, and for raising a fund whicli will enable it to carry out its patriotic and useful programme in its eutirety. The contents of this book testify to the remarkable success which has attended the inaugural arrangements, and to the enthusiasm which has been evoked among all classes and conditions of Gaels, not only at home, but in the Lowlands, in England, in the Colonies and other over-sea lands. This book is a proof, if such were needed, how deeply rooted in their hearts is the love of land, language and race and how sympathetically the outside world regards that part of the scheme intended to assist in procuring remunerative home employment for the Highland people, a people who are the living representatives of the old Celtic population of Scotland, still dwelling on the classic soil and speaking the ancient and expressive tongue, a people whose qualities and worth have been handed down in song and story from the earliest times, whose loyalty and courage have been proved on many a hard fought field, and whose honesty, intelligence and courtesy place them to-day in positions of trust and importance wherever the white man's burden is taken up. Stress of circumstances, however, is causing theni in ever increasing numbers to forsake their native glens, some to settle in distant Colonies, others to be absorbed in the teeming and degenerate populations of our great cities. The Nation can 111 spare such as these By developing home employments, much is already being done, much more can yet be accomplished to supplemcnt their present precarious means of livelihood, and to assist them in earning a moderate contpetence, and so ensure the rearing of future generations among the wholesome happy surroundings of their native land. The late Father Allan Macdonald of Eriskay loved his people as few have done, and gave himself for them. They were poor people, many possessing but the barest means of subsistence, but he used to say, and he was surely right, he would sooner see them as they were in their rocky island home, innocent and unspoiled, happy and good, than possessing more comfort and luxury, along with the temptations and deteriorating infiuence of city life. It will not take long to peruse these pages, but there is scarcely a line which is not a record of strenuous work—there is scarcely a name whose owner has not freely given much time and trouble to one department or another of this many-sided Feill. All have worked together, shoulder to shoulder, inspired by one purpose, united in one aim, and they ask as their reward the whole hearted co-operation of every reader. Bazaars for various purposes are unfortunately always with us, but Feill a Chomuinn Ghaidhealaich is a unique undertaking coming but once in a lifetime. It afibrds an opportunity of shewing practical patriotism, and offers the privilege of working for Tir agus Teanga. It is hoped, therefore, it may in this year 1907 be given the precedence over all other interests and demands which are tugging at the purse strings and asking for time and attention. It is a National—an historical undertakìng. Let it then be worthy of our Country, our traditions, ourselves, and of our place as Scottish Gaels among the Nations. MARGARET BURNLEY CAMPBELL.
