CELTIC CLUB

T OS ANGELES was the first city in
the world to recognize the unity
- of the Celtic race by establishing
a club or society in which common
origin is remembered and misunder-
standings are forgotten. Great is the
part that has been played by the Celtic
race in the history of mankind. AL
most as remarkable as the fact of
racial achievement is the fact of racial
division.
Celts are all enthusiasts. An old say
ing tells of the perfervidum ingenium
Scotorum-the perfervid genius of the
Scots-but perfervidum ingenium equal
ly characterizes all branches of the
Celtic family. This enthusiasm has
made the Celts go to great extremes in
their zeal for individuals, for religions,
churches, or for schools of politics.
There is nothing half-hearted in the
support of a. Celt. Either you have

Child Labor Laws of u. s.
(san Jose Herald

disastrous enable employers who are
as callous as the lawmakers where
these conditions exist to use cheap
child labor in competition with their
rivals in other states where such
abuses are not tolerated. 1t is put
ting a premium upon a system of
blghting childhood which disgraces
any state or country where it is suf-
fered to do its cruel work.
1t is certain that if uniformity of
action can be obtained in respect to
child labor, the states which still fail
to do their duty by the little boys and
girls working in mills and factories
or even in mines, will be lifted to a
decent level of humanity and far
seein self-interest, as well, in this
vital matter. They will doubtless
climb out of the mire of their made
uuate and shameful child labor laws,
in the end, if they are left to rise
singly, but the way to obtain much
quicker and surer results is through
the concerted action which the civic
federation urges.

is the middle man who takes from 20

LII who realize what burdens and

IA the more backward or more cal
lous states, because there is no uni

wish the Civic Federation success in

Uniformity it would surely be based

would furnish the pattern, not those

ALL"
Various cool-headed, crafty. schem-
ing politicians have taken advantage Of
the racial temperament in the promo
tion of their own aims or ends, and ex-
plotting governments have found in the
Celtic character an easy aid to their
willy purposes. But the first decade of
the twentieth century has been marked
by strong Celtic revival, Celtic under
standing and Celtic reunion. Scotch,
Irish, Welsh, Manx, Cornish and
Bretons are all branches of the
same old race. The six principal septs
have been severed and disintegrated
by jealousies, religious OF political diff
ferences, and oftentimes by feuds. In
spite of the fact that there are still a
few individuals who are not aware Of
their race, and q few who are misled
by religious preJudices, most of the
men and women of Celtic blood are be-
coming united in the bonds of mutual
recognition of common racial origin.
