THE

UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA

RESIDENCE, FARMING, TRAVEL

The Union of South Africa is of interest to Europeans in the Far East. If they are retiring on pension, there are many pleasant South African towns in which to live. If they seek A career, and have a moderate capital, there is scope in South Africa for planters and farmers. And for those in need of a holiday, the country is famed as a travel and health resort.

The climate is equable. It is. sunny but temperate, being neither so inclement in winter as that of Northern Europe, Bor so enervating in summer as that of the East. It is a genial, wholesome climate in which Europeans thrive.

The rougher work in South Africa is done by coloured labourers and domestics. Educational facilities are" good, the young can now take their University degrees in South Africa. The larger towns are modernly equipped, and many of the smaller ones ure very congenial residentially There are numerous resorts-moun- tain, river and marine, for an occa sional change. Sport is plentiful. The cost of living and income tax. alion compare favourably with those elsewhere. V AK

In short the Union of South Africa is an uncommonly attractive country: Full particulars may be obtained from the Publicity Agent, Office of the High Commissioner for the Union of South Africa. Trafalgar Square, London, w... Specify requirements.
