"FEIs OF TARA AT CHICAGO
United Press

United Press
CHICAGO, Aug. with harpists
strumming "The Harp that once
through Tara's Halls" and chorus
of 200 voices in accompaniment, the
''feis of Tara" revival of the most
distinctive institution of ancient Ire
land, opened in the White Sox ball
park today. Gaelic music, Gaelic
dancing, Gaelic football game and
"hirling matches" were on the pro-
gram to entertain 10000 Irish and
Scotch of Chicago and surrounding
small towns who attended the festi-
val.
The 'feis" the program explained,
was the parliament of Gael in an
cient times, when all the provincial
chieftains met and discussed affairs
of state. Gradually, the ''feis" be-
came the occasion for gatherings of
peoples from all parts of the Irish ma
ton. Athletic games were arranged,
dancers for the Irish provinces ex-
hibited their skill in the open air on
the hills of Tara, and the discus
sion of affairs of state was rele-
gated to second place in the import
ance of events on the program. La
ter, the idea of the "feis" spread, un-
til for more than $500 years it was
one of the most important events in
the life of the Gael. 1t was even
more to the ancient Irish than the
Olympic games were to the ancient
Greeks. Since Ireland lost her in
dependence, but few "feseanna" were
held until their revival by the Gaelic
league in 1896. Irish societies Of
Chicago were in charge of today's
program. If the games are a sue
cess they will be made an annual
event.
