wide range, from cooking and roasting
to care of the flower garden, anc
many women attended the women's

One of the big things brought out
at the roundup, and the thing thai
is the most important to rural resi-
dent and city man. was the fact thai
some of the tracts of land considered
at one time worthless in the north
ern part Of the state can bea utilized
and brought up by the growing Of
certain crops into high state Of
productiveness, and that at some
future time. these same areas, now

that Michigan has vast acreage that

known that the Bank of Ireland, which
since 1905 has occupied the premises
OF the Old Irish Parliament House In
Dublin, will not give UP the promises
for the new Irish Parliament unless
forcibly cvicted.
Ever since home rule became a Nv

have spoken in whispers Of tho time
when the Irish Parliament would meet
in the famous old assembly house in
Dublin. with its historic paintings and
pictures of the irish Parliament be
fore the union.
According to the report. the Bank OF
ireland has secured an indeterninable
lease Of the premises from the English
government, and it determined not to
surrender its rights to the Irish Par
lament which is due to meet next
year.
To think of holding the first Par
Lament anywhere except In the an

II sacrilege To home rulers. and what
the outcome Of the matter will be ia

This appeal was made in n state

Representative Nicholas Longworth

The salary Of an ambassador is ST.
800 year, and nm expert opinion given
here to day by John Barrett, who has
been In the diplomatic service as min
lister and is now director of The Pan
American Union, is that S25. 900 is the
least that one can spend and main
tain the dignity Of AN embassy. Even
nj that figure the ambassador or min
