Chosen leaf Of bard and chief,
Old Erin's native shamrock.
Whether the word comes from Seamrog
in the Erse tongue, or Seamrag in the
Celtic, or Shamrakh in the Arabic, it is
almost impossible to say, for all have II
similar meaning. Certain it is that wheth-
er 1t be the wood sorrell or the white clover
a trifoliate plant is referred to.
The oxalis, or wood sorrell, in the time
of the DTuids was held to be sacred plant
and was by them called alleluyia. The
story of St. Patrick, the learned and devOut
young Scotchman, taking the leaf to illus
trate the doctrine of the Trinity, the mys-
FERROUS three in one and one in three, has
strong air of probability about it, for it is
an apt illustration and just such a one AS
would be understood by the pagan Irish of
that time.
The amplification of the legend by relat-
ing that the stain on the leaf represents the
tears of st. Patrick when he found his
hearers unbelieying is probably the in
ventiOn of an imaginative Celtic writer

ENsHROUDEO BY FOG.
Atlantic Yacht Club Regatta

racers of the Atlantic Yacht Club as
they started from the club anchorage of

known 10 shippers hereabout.
Prospects of an ideal race were by no

speeders over the course, cropping their
way through the fog, with a chorus Of
