FoRaErs HIS GAELIC.
Cardinal Logue Falls Back on the Eng
lish Language.

lish Language.
Cardinal Logue's last day in New
York demonstrated that his fund Of
wit has not been exhausted by the
heavy demands made upon it since
his arrival in this country. From
early morning until he retired at 10
o'clock that night he fairly bubbled
with bon mots and ready repartee
that will be passed along as his other
stories have been and cherished as
memento Of his visit. As has been
his custom, he turned most Of the
laughs on himself.
This was especially the case at the
archbishop's residence where fifty
men and women, members of the
Gaelic Society presented to him an
illuminated address In 1reland's ma
tive tongue. e. T. McCoystal, presi-
dent Of the society, made the presen-
tation in Gaelic. and as Cardinal
Logue had taught the language for
three years during the early part Of
his ecclesiastical career those gather
ed around him who understood the
language prepared themselves. for a
treat. The Cardinal began the re-
sponse in Gaelic, but he was plainly
In trouble, and after he had spoken
about dozen words he shook his
head and laughed.
Il started in Irish, but guess I'll
have to finish in English" he said
while the crowd went into a paroxysm
Of mirth. I'D like to continue in
Irish so I could fool those reporters
standing over there. Then their note

that Adam and Eve would use nothing

going to cost you don't know until the

This total cost is then divided up

In addition there is an annual charge

more than ten nor less than five an

Keeping Young.

Never give In to growing old and
you have the secret Of keeping young"
says Rupert's, Magazine.
Hold on to your activities and to
your enthusiasms. Work keeps one
young; work with the hand, and heart
and brain; youth is filled with hope,
with faith In self and In human kind;
therefore she who would be young
must keep the spirit fresh.
When one says Of a person in the
afties, "she is a nice old lady" or "I1e
Is . nice old gentleman one is very
much mistaken in the use Of tho wori
old-oftentimesa the person referred to
is doing the best work. When one
has reached the eighties, mice old
lady, or "nice old gentleman" is a
compliment to be expected. At 20
there may be ten years more of serv-
ice before u.s.. At. so one may still be
useful, "for they also serve who only
stand and wait" a AS long as one 10 in
the world something can be found to
do.
To keep young one must keep In
touch with the young and whatever in
terests them. Fathers and mothers
usually retain, their youth better than
do single men and women, for the
fresh, budding lives renew the spring
time and summer Of their own. One
must keep up With the times. It is
not the youth who lags behind the
procession. -ssass..s &: w..
Alertness belongs to the growing, re-
ceptive brain. Tie world owes much.
and gladly pays. tha debt Of honor to
the young old mon who have been a
power at an age when others have
been, willing to- seek the chimney cor
ner. In such man one finds the vir-
tues of youth tempered by the judg-
men Of age. One should not, like a
snail, crawl catf1nto his she'll dis age
approaches. BIT ttfather rejoice in the
sunshine Of the daily life around him.
