fathers. BY the neglect of looking
closely into the achievements of the
Irish race from the beginning of their
history, the young Irish-Americans Of
today are missing much that can serve
them as an inspiration to noble &C
ton. Even the part played: by the
Irish in the life of other nations loses
much of fits Importance when viewed
apart from the history Of the ancestors
of the men who have lived their lives
that other peoples might flourish. 1t
is only when by constant insistence on
the services rendered by Irishmen on
our battlefelds and in the council
halls of the nation that the sons of
1rishmen in America are warmed with
the pride Of their race. On the walls
of the university of Notre Dame is
proudly displayed the battle flag of
the. Irish. Brigade, which performed
such heroic deeds In the Civil War,
under the gallant and brilliant General
Thomas Francis Meagher. 1t is one
of the finest relics in the historical
collection Of the university. Under it's
green silk, Tapping In the forefront
of the battle, brave men gave up their
lives gladly that America might be an
undivided nation, their dimming sight.
fastened on the embroidered harp and
the shamrock. And now that flag, re-
duced to tattered pieces of silk, is a.
constant reminder Of the loyalty and
valor of the Irish in the sixties. The
sight of 1t can not fail to warm the
heart of any one in whose veins red
blood flows.

refused justice to the Catholics Of Ire

no more staunch supporters than the
