CIVILISATION’S HIGH “The healthiest countries, are Scandinavian lands, England and Hotland, together with those new countries where these people have settled.' This is an interesting fact, however we may explain it. The low rate extends even to Iceland, few would choose as a health Australia and New Zealand seem lie actually the healthiest — in the world. A gofxl case might be made out for England as the most favoured country to live in. But on the whole, I should give the palm to France with her larger area, her broad. \ wheat-fields, her more varied climate, and her open side facing the Aleditterranean. 1 know no other country to whict Nature has been quite so bountiful. And perhaps even an Englishman j may admit that if civilisation is the t art of making the most of life, the French have cultivated that art more successfully ’than any other nation. The whole French nation is civilised to a degree which until lately we could not have claimed.”—Dean Inge.
