y very practical kind of optimist
WAS Jaramy Donnelly. Jaramy titled
two roods of sround-one-half in pota-
toes. and the other half in cabbage
When Il farmer. distressed by the
drought in August. asked Jaramy what
he had to say to such weather, Jara-
my, rubbing his hands With delight
would proclaim that "Ah, it was grand
weather entirely for the ripening of
the praties." And if his neighbor COM
planned of a long spell of rainy
weather. Jaramy's eye glistened
whilst he assured him that at was
mighty weather for the cabbage, We
could almost see it growin.'"
Optimism, however, may be cultivat
cd to an unhealthy extent. Michael
Moore, a cobbler in my country, sat
and sang and cobbed under a roof
through which the sun shone or the
rain rancd as the barometer directed.
Michaefs cheerfulness was never i'm
paired nor his roof repaired. When an
over-otficious neighbor, trying to dodge
the downpour in Michael's on rainy
day, was moved to suggest Its Il
wonder to me, Michael, that We
wouldn't put some mendment Oh that
roof O. yours" Michael would con-
clusively reply, "Would We have me go
out such day as that to thatch me
roof?" When a dry day came should
the ofticious one pop his head into
NLichael's and query, "Well, Michael,
and why don't We put some repairs on
your roof the day." Michael would re-
ply, conclusively also, "Bekase it's
dom me no harm the day-the roof on
the kings castle isn't any kindlier to
him the day than mine is to me- glory
be to goodness
We have not many such philosoph-
ers as Michael in Ireland. And per-
haps it is as well. For sake of phil
osoplly as well as for Ireland's sake.
