The situation will be better UNDER
stood by comparing the population
figures calculated to the middle of last
year with those of lrelands period of
maximum population and the figures
for 1924. When the collection of vital
statistics was first systemized. These
returns show the following results:

figures of 3.S7O,UU1.
Two or three other points in the

grafton amounted to 39.Gl3; the num-
Der of Legitimate births WAS 2593, or
only 2.6 per cent OF the total, as
against 4 per cent in England and
Wales and G.5 per cent in Scotland.
Deaths from homictal violence num-
bered only 40, and III the whole OF
Ireland there We're but two persons

1t comes to me often in silence,
When the freight splutters low
When the black, uncertain shadows
Seem wraiths of long ago;
Always with Il throb of he;,rtache,
That fills each pulsive vein,
Comes the old, unquiet longing
For the peace OF home again.
I'm, sick of the roar of the cities,
And of faces cold and strange;
know where there's warmth Of well
come.
And my yearming fancies range
Back to- the dear old homestead,
With an aching sense OF pain,
But there'll be joy in the coming,
When 90 home again.
When I go home again! There's music
That never may die away.
And it seems the hands of ages,
On mystic harp at play.
Have touched with yearning sadness
On beautiful, broken strain,
To which is my fond heart wording
When so home again.
Outside of my darkening window
Are the great worlds clash and din.
And slowly the autumn shadows
Come drifting, drifting in.
Sobbing, the night wind murmurs
10 the splash of the autumn rain;
But l dream of the glorious greeting
When go home again.
