KILKENNY.

In view of the shrinkage In the sup
plies of coal coming from Great Bri-
tain, interest naturally turns to the
possibilities of utilizing the supplies
of coal and other fuel available in Ire
land. That the coal and peat in this
country are far more than sufficient
to supply Irish needs is fact gen.
orally accepted. But notwithstanding
the urgency of the need very little
seems to have been done to make the
abundant supplies available for general
use. The absence of an Irish national
authority with the requisite funds at
it's disposal is, of course, the outstand:
ing flaw in the situation. Even for the
carrying out of such an essential work
as the connecting of the Castlecomer
and the Arigna coalfields with the near
est railway systems by the construc>
ton of short lines of railway, the Brit
ish Treasury seem to be very loath to
provide the necessary funds. AS to
the cutting and caving of turf, it is one
of the evils resulting from the con-
scription proposals of the Government
that this industry, like all other rural
Industries, is likely to be adversely
affected by the general paralysis re-
sulting from the unsettled state of the
public mind.

the altar rails. Canon Reynolds, the

At a meeting of the Royal Horticul-

ing on the Government the pressing
necessity of taking immediate steps to
secure adequate tree planting of suit
able implanted areas in Ireland. The
Department was asked to consider the
establishment of nurseries for forest
trees. The arguments given for tree
planting are too obvious to be repeated
The members of the Carbury (Kil-

ly decided not to accept the price fixed
by the War Office for wool clip for
1918, and thanked the members of the
advisory committee who resigned, pro-
testing against the inadequacy of the
price offered.

AMERICAN SOLDIERS May
Be SENT TO IRELAND
Alleged Plan to Overcome Recruiting
Difficulty Is Given by the Asso-
ciated Press From London.

London, June 11.-(By A. P.)-The
London correspondent of the Daily
Express processes to be able to give
the details of plan for conducting a
voluntary recruiting campaign in Ire
land, which he understands has as one
of it's great features the bringing of
American regiments to Ireland to
march through the towns and villages.
These regiments, he adds, will bring
their priests with them.
John Dillon, the Nationalist leader
meanwhile, is maintaining neutral at
titude, the correspondent adds, al
though with favorable leaning.
Basis of the Suggestion.
In connection with the foregoing
Associated Press cablegram, which
passed the British censor, it may be
mentioned that the All-Ireland Con.
ference framed petition to President
Wilson, which was to have been pre-
sented to the President by the Lord
Mayor of Dublin, Lawrence O'Neill,
The Lord Mayor got passports to come
to this country, but there was a con-
dition attached that he submit to the
British Government the petition in
tended for the President of the United
States. This the Lord Mayor refused
to do, saying it was direct commune
cation from the Irish peoples elected
representatives to the President of
the United States.
This petition asked that the. right
of self-determination be extended to
Ireland, and pleaded for the friendly
offices of the United States. 1t pro-
posed submitting Ireland's case to two
European neutrals and the United
States for settlement, and made the,
suggestion that as a guarantee that
Ireland is not pro-German Omitted
States troops occupy Ireland and the
English troops be withdrawn from the
island" and that 1rishmen be given the
chance of enlistment in the American
forces. This is probably the basis of
the suggestion outlined in the forego-
ing dispatch. The Irish petition has not
yet reached Washington, so far as is
known.

teens, hospitals and elsewhere. 1t is
stipulated that these applicants must
be more than thirty years of age, that
they must possess energy and intelli-
gence and be capable of taking care
of themselves Under varying circum-
stances.
1t is pointed out that this work will
entail sacrifice of comfort and only
those filled with the spirit of sacrifice
should undertake it. Government reg
ulations must also be met and women,
either of whose parents were born in
an enemy country, or whose husband,
son or brother is in military service,
cannot be accepted. Already many ap-
plications from women in various parts
of the country have been received and
several of the applicants have been
sent abroad.
Mothers Day Observed.
Mothers Day officially designated
by the President of the United States,
was fittingly observed in the knights
Of Columbus recreation buildings of
the various American camps. 1t is
appropriate from the Catholic point of
view that this day should come within
the month of May, which is dedicated
by the church in special manner to
Mary the Mother of the Redeemer. In
many camps special May devotions
were held in honor of the Virgin
Mother, and addresses were delivered
by the chaplains in which it was en-
phasized that the man who has a fer.
vent devotion to the Mother of Christ
will also cherish tender devotion for
his own mother.

One of the most inspiring religious

One of the most inspiring religious
services held under the auspices of
the Knights of Columbus in an Ameri.
can camp was the midnight Mass re.
Gently celebrated at an embarkation
point for the men who were about to
leave for France. Word reached the
Knights of Columbus building that 500
men desired to go to confession and
to receive Holy Communion. The
chaplain Immediately took his place
in the confessional while knights of
Columbus secretary hurried to the
nearby city to secure another priest
to assist in this holy work. Both of
these Jealous clergymen were in the
confessional until almost midnight,
when one left to prepare for the cele-
bration of Mass, the other remaining
until all the men had been heard.
Through the kindness of the COM
handing officer, barracks was Sc
cured in which the Holy Sacrifice was
offered, the Knights of Columbus
building being entirely too small to
accommodate the throng that desired
to attend. This barracks was filled
to overfowing, and so quiet was it that
the sentry could be heard as he pa
tiently paced his beat outside. During
the distribution of Holy Communion
the men formed line outside the
building, passing through one door
and out at another, thus preventing
congestion around the improvised al
tar.
Results Of Work Apparent.
Instances of this kind could be cited
in every camp, and those in charge of
the spiritual welfare of the men are
firm in the belief that the work which
the knights of Columbus have done
in supplying the men with wholesome
surroundings and amusements is
largely responsible for the wonderful
spirit of faith and devotion which has
been preserved among them. Expert
ence has taught that the soldier who
is compelled to shift for himself in
the matter of finding entertainment
and who has no place within his own
camp in which to seek recreation, is
liable to fall the victim of those un-
principled persons who look upon the
man in uniform as legitimate prey.
The Knights of Columbus and other
welfare agencies have done much to
overcome this condition and as result
the Catholic men have never lost sight
of the duty they owe to God.
