POST OFFICE WITHOUT DOOR
Architects Peculiar Omission in Dub.
Inns Public Building Is to
Be Rectified.

The General Post Office building
in Dublin, writes an Irish CORE
spondent, according to the Manches-
ter Guardian, has long been a stand
ing joke with the foreigner who has
visited ireland. It dates from 1920,
and is an admirable piece of archi-
lecture, with its magnificent pillars
that give out on the main thorough
fare of the city. Only, Francis John
son, the Irish architect, forgot one
thing. He forgot to add a door to
the doorway or portico of the build
ing. Descriptions of this splendid
but e%ver-closed house, known to the
natives as a post Office, have gone all
over Europe during the last hundred
years.
Familiarity breeds Indifference
Continues our correspondent, says
the Guardian, and the curiosity of
the thing seems to have struck very
few Of our own Dublin people. Be-
sides, we knew, in fact, that it was
possible to find a way into the place.
We took, as a matter of course, the
dark and devious approach of back
streets to the side entrance through
which one passed in single file. 1t
was only a few days ago that we real
lied the situation. Workmen had
been busy for some time at the front
of the building, and now it has be-
come evident that Johnson's omis-
sion is to be remedied. The door,
which historians will say it took a
hundred years to make, gradually
appears on Sackville street.

E THE BIRDS.

Col. G. o. Shields of New York,
president of the League of American
sportsmen, places the annual cost to
farmers in this country because OF
the destruction of birds at $1,000,-
100000. "There are 100000
shotguns in USE" he said "and that
number is being increased 10000
every year. There are 900,O0o,000
shotgun cartridges being made and
burned each year in an effort to get
the remaining birds.
"The cotton growers are losing
800, 00O,0 900 a year because of the
ravages of the boil weevil. Quails,
prairie chickens, meadow larks and
other birds that have been almost ex-
terminated used to destroy these in
sects. Grain growers + losing a
like amount because of the chinch
bug. The Hessian fly is costing them
$500, OOO, 900 more"

A story has been going the news
paper rounds the past few days, al
legged to have been published in a Mex
lean newspaper, which says: Gen.
Villa has captured New Mexico and
Texas, and President Wilson and fam
lily are fleeing to Canada for safety"
In order to get even, Texas should be
given the privilege Of taking a regi-
ment Of her rangers over there and
cleaning that republic up. The one
regiment might not be able to do it,
but it would come much nearer than
Villa would of capturing Texas.
