IRISH PRIESTS fine TRIBUTE

Rev. James c. Cannon, of Carrick,
was one of the speakers at the
recent great Nationalist demonstra-
ton at Ballybofey, County Donegal,
and in an eloquent and patriotic ad-
dress that enthused his hearers he
paid the following glowing tribute to
the Ancient Order of Hibernians:
The Ancient Order has a noble
origin and a noble record. It sprung
into existence in dark and evil
days" when pr'est-hunting was a
calling sanctioned by English law
and encouraged by a Government
made with hatred of Ireland and Ire
lands ancient faith when the Irish
people were ground down by penal
code. the most brutal OF which the
worlds history has any record, when
, the Catholic people of this old Cath
Ollie land we're robbed and plundered
and the faith that st. Patrick brought
to Tara in the olden day pro-
scribed as a thing of evil. 1t was in
these dark days of shame that the
Ancient Order found it's origin in a
band of heroic men who braved the
terrors of "the bayonet and the
gibbet, the pitch cap and the rack"
to defend the hunted priest and help
the prosecuted peasant.
do you ask why the beacon and
banner of war
On the mountains of Ulster are
seen from afar?
IT'S the signal our rights to regain
and restore
Through God and Our Lady and Rory
O'Moore."
In all the subsequent vicissitudes
of Irish history, l claim that our
noble order has ever been true to its
origin, ever faithful to it's honorable
traditions, ever loyal to Ireland and
to Ireland's cause. 1t has held up to
our people at home and to our exiles
In every land high ideals and noble
aims. 1t offers the hand of friend
ship to every Irishman who loves his
country, and wishes his country
we'll, and it's charity knows not dis
the words of the charter which was
sent by the old Board of Erin for
the first establishment of the order
In the United states:
"Also be it known to you that our
wish and prayer is that when you
form your society in many cities and
towns you will do all that is in your
power to aid and protect your Irish
sisters from all harm and tempta-
ton, as the Irish woman is known
for her chastity all over the world,
and though some of them may differ
from you in religion bear in mind
that our good Lord died for us ALL"
Today the Ancient Order OF
Hibernians is the greatest organiza-
ton of Irishmen in the world. In
America, Australia, South Africa,
England, Scotland, Wales, here at
home in the cradle of the race, the
order is not only holding its own
but is advancing by leaps and
bounds.

WESTMEATH
Is One OF Ireland's Most Central
and FIattest Of Pretty
Counties.
Rivers and Streams Furnish Album
dant Irrigation in All
Sections.
Old Baronies and Districts Still Re-
tain Old Historic
Names.
SEVERAL NICE SHOW POINTS

Westmeath is one of the central
counties in Ireland. From Athlone
to the boundary point southeast of
Clonmellon It is forty-three and a
half miles long; from Finnea to
Kinnegad 1t is twenty-six miles
broad. 1t has an area of 7OSB
square miles, and a population Of
Il 200. There are no mountains in
Westmeath, but there are a number
of low hills in the barony Of Fore
and few in the adjoining baronfes
of Corkaree and Farbill. The rest
of the county is level, broken here
and there by low swells, sandridges
and bog. Though quite level It
abounds in lovely, quiet landscapes.
Westmeath is irrigated by many
rivers and streams. The Inny, issu-
ing from Tough Sheelin at the
northern extremity of the county,
forms the boundary between West
meath and Cavan during its short
run of a mile by the village of
Finnea, from Tough Sheelin to
Tough Kinale. Thence it flows
southwark, forming the boundary
between Westmeath and Longford
for six miles, and finally enters
Tough Rec. Tributaries to the Inny
are the Glore, the Goine, the Riffey,
the Black, the Rath, the Tang, the
Breensford and the Brosna. All the
rivers in the southeastern part of the
county empty into the Boyne.
Westmeath is remarkable for its
fine lakes. None of them are large,
yet all abound in beautiful scenery
and their waters are dotted by pic
turesque islands filled with leg
endary history.
Mullingar, on the Brosna, near
its source in the center of the county,
is the principal assize town. 1t has
a population of approximately 5000.
Athlone has a population of 5000,
but half the people live in the town
of Athlone across the river in County
Kilbeggan, Castlepoll-
ard, Kinnegad and Delvin are also
thriving towns.
The western half of the county
the ancient district of
South Teffia, separated from North
Teffia or Longford by the River
Inny. The ancient district or
possessed by the family
of McGeogheagh, included portion
of the south of Westmeath. The
barony of Kilkenny West is cock
tensive with the territory of Curcne.
The baronies of Delvin Farbill,
Corkaree, Moygoish and Browney
retain names of old historic districts.
The hill of Ushnagh, between Bally-
more and Lough Ennel, was made
royal residence by Tuathal, the Ac-
ceptable, who was King of Ireland in
the first century A. d. There he
erected a palace and instituted
yearly meetings to be held on the
hill on May 1 and the succeeding
days, at which games were to be
played and athletic sports engaged
in. Various pagan rites followed the
games.
Before the time of King Tuathal
the five provinces of Ireland met at
the hill of Usuagh. and the point of
meeting was marked by stone
called the "Stone of Divisions" This
stone still remains on the hill and
is now called Cat-Usnagh.
Among the show points in West
meath are Belvidere Lake and Tough
Derravaragl.

MAKE ROOM HOME.

Though you may be cut off from
your early associates. and though
you may be separated from all your
kindred, young man, is there not a
room somewhere that you can call
your own? Though 1t be the fourth
story of third-class boarding house,
into that room gather books, pictures
and a harp. Hang your mothers
portrait over the mantel. Bid unholy
mirth stand back from that
threshold. Consecrate some spot in
that room with the knee of prayer.
BY the memory OF other days, a
fathers counsel, a mothers love and
sisters confidence, call IL home.

THE CRAZY AGE.

"He is crazy about IT," replied the

'She is crazy about them"
How is your brother on base

Just crazy over IT,"
"And do you like automobiling?'

MOTHERS ADVICE.

II there is one thing God does not
like It is the reckless neglect of a
mothers advice. A boy may have his
passions and weaknesses, but when
he laughs his mothers counsel to
scorn he may not expect much of a
return from heaven. The hardest
heart for the priest to reach is the
heart that is wilfully unmindful OF a
mothers love and that willingly does
without her care.
