Irish Eskimos,

One Of the most experienced inter~
prefers Of the Eskimo tribes Is of Irish
descent. He was born on the coast of
Labrador and is a son of one Of tbs
Hudson Bay company's employee.
This man gave information of much
value to Dr. Cook before the latter LETT
for his successful trip to the north
pole. #a
1t is peculiar fact that nearly all
the Eskimos you find who speak Eng
lish, speak with an Irish accent. They
learned the language from the Hud.s
son Bay men, who were nearly Al
Irish.
No doubt it was the Irish Eskimos
who discovered the pole with DE-.
Cook. For years it has been a trite
saying, "You will find the Irishman
everywhere-if the north pole was dis
covered tomorrow he would be there.
We fnd that one Murphy figures In
the controversy between Peary and
Cook. He has pretty Irish cognO-
men and may hail from Cork for

This neglect was not due to busi-

fact that Ireland had an even more

all her energy. She was engaged in

think, devoted every particle of public

Irish Lace Making Exhibit
Under Charge of a Catholic
Priest From the County of

Seen in Minneapolis and

of Erin Give Demonstra-
tons to all the Visitors.

A large number of people have vis-
tied Dayton's store in this city dur
ing the week to witness the display
Of lace making. in charge of Rev.
Father Michael OFlanagan, of Lough-
lynn. County Roscommon, Ireland.
Assisting him in the work are the
Misses Mary O'Flanagan and Rose
Egan. The young women are expert
lace makers and are from the Lough-
lynn technical school in Ireland, that
is in charge of committee of sis
tiers known as the Franciscan Mis-
sionaries Of Mary. The exhibit is To-
Gated on the first floor of the Dayton
store.
Father O'F1anagan has been spend
ing as much time as possible in the
store, furnishing information about the
arts and industries of Ireland and
the progress being made in their res
toration. He does not confine his at
tention entirely to Irish laces but ex-
plains all sides of Irish life. The girls
are each occupied in making different
kinds Of lace. Miss O'Flanagan makes
the Irish crochet, and Miss Egan the
more delicate, but less durable bobbin
lace. The exhibit possesses a rare in
terest for all who concern them
selves with matters sociological and
economic, altogether aside from it's
artistic merits.
1t represents in a pictorial way, one
might say, very important movement
for solving vital social and econ
omic problem brought about by pres
ent conditions in Ireland. A study
of the scope and possibilities of the
effort which it depicts, in this direc-
ton, will naturally suggest itself to
thoughtful minds. lii addition, there

but to make the business men pa
triotic. And let us plain people who
are politicians and business men by
turns take a little Of the surplus pa
triotism from our political bump and
distribute 1t over the business lobes OF
our brain. Let US prove to the bust
ness men Of America that a depart

ment with as good grace as a city hall
or theater and we may leave the
details of supplying the market to the
regular channels.
Il wish to give here a practical ex-
ample of how want Of enterprise loses
to Ireland a market that ought to he
hers. Ireland Is the foremost country
in the world in the manufacture Of
crochet lace. In late years 1t has bc-
come so popular that the desire to
make 1t has spread into several other
countries. As result books of in
struction on the making of Irish lace
have been published in France, Gar
many, England and America. Each
book recommends thread made in the
country of its publication. The result
is that here in America crochet lace

fore, to creating Il new market or ex-
tending the present one in this coun-
try for the products of the cottage in
dustries, the exhibit will turn the at
tention of serious minds to the stu
alton which has given 1t birth.
In an interview Father O'Flanasan
had this to say:
1.-THE sale of Irish goods in the Uni
ted States at the present day amounts
in round numbers to $12,000,o00 a year.
Most of this is linen from the neigh
borhood of Belfast. Whisky from
Belfast and Dublin, and half a million
dollars worth of Guiness' stout form
the bulk of the remainder. A trifinis
and mostly intermittent trade is done
in a large variety Of other goods, such
as fish, potatoes and WOODEN goods.
"Twenty-e years ago the sale OF
Irish goods in America reached Its
high water mark In 1881 Ireland sold
America goods amounting to $68,o00,-
900 in value. The trade has declined
almost every year since then. Changes
in tariff will Immediately suggest
themselves as the cause of this d.
cline. But changes in tariff do not
