THE REVIVAL OF TIE IRISH

How many Irishmen can speak
Irish? According to an embassy OF dis
tnguished sons of Erin now travelling
In this country, the number who can
speak the ancient tongue is all too
small. Messrs. Fionan and MacColun.

come to the United States In order to
arouse an interest in the Gaelic League
among the Americans who are proud
to say that they were born in tho En-

cation. the Gaelic League, proposes to
do much for Ireland in many ways,
but its most striking achievement has

Knowledge of the Irish language In
this country.
AS a part OF It's hopeless endeavor
to denationalize ireland, the British
Government for many years prohibited
the teaching of the irish tongue in
the Irish schools. This is no longer
the rule, however for after fifteen
years of work by the Gaelic League,
Irish is taught IN almost half tho
schools. 4 is nuently and charming

who thus speak Irish also speak Eng

therefore, excused from recitations in

Now, there are great many boys,

agree with DR.. Eliot that there is too
much arithmetic and too little music
In the public schools. For some lads
we used to know arithmetic was the
most exquisite torture conceived by
the brain of man. Not so with this
lad, who is described by the Times
as fall boy" He is ambitious and
wants to make his courses and get
into the high school. Every afternoon
he goes to a typewriter and laboriously
picks the figures and hammers them
with his lone left hand.

MISSION WORK IN FOREIGN FIELDS.

Peter and James and John were all
we'll enough for work In the domestic
field; but when missionary was to be

strange peoples, the choice fell upon
Paul. the greatest thinker in all the
history of the world Speaking three
languages, all things to all men, diplo
matte in his walk and conversation. and
fit Tor the high service required of him.
he WAS the first missionary of all time,

as he. that should be sent into the mis-
sion fields of the world If the work is
to prosper, Men who think, men of
social gifts. men who know what they

they are to succeed. Half-ratc men.

TO do the work here, where the spiri-
tual atmosphere is supposed to be clear,
and only the strongest and most cour-
ageous and best equipped should be
assigned to the larger and more trying
service. where constructive work is to
be done.

Kinsolvins. OF Brazil as he told the
people at the Monumental Church yes
