all that Smith had and came in for
more. Both were wobbling on their
pins at the bell.
Round 4-Flynn went bravely at his
task. He drove Smith around trying

He still had his wits about him, though,

Plan Flag for Ireland,

The design and shape of the ma

Irish parliament buildings is a topic
that is now keenly exercising the
minds of Irish students.
1t will, no doubt, come as a revela-
ton to many Irishmen when they are
told that there never was a national
flag for Ireland. The gold harp on
green; the golden harp on blue; blue
green and gold; the golden sunburst

them can be considered the true ma
