cultural system if it would survive.
Our race has long been on the de-
fensive 1t is time that we evolved
a complete system Of education for the
future generations of Irish children,
whether those children be born in the
United States, Canada, Australia or in
the land of our fathers.
One of the most visible of all the
defects in our cultural system is the
neglect of Irish history in the paroch-
ial schools. This defect was noted by
the late James Haltigan, in his Irish
in the American Revolution" in the
following indictment and warning:
"The Irish Catholics of America have
freely spent millions to establish
schools for the proper education of
their. children-especially from a re-
ligious point of view. The history of
Ireland-and of the Irish race in
America-of the great sacrifices they
have made since the days Of St.
Patrick for creed and country-should
form the principal subject of instruc-
ton in these schools"
It is most astonishing that in thou
The Irish standard., 1918-07-27

a nation of warriors. It is thus that
the genius of the Irish race has been
wrought into the fabric of many en-
pires, too often leaving no trace of
their triumphs, there being no Irish
hands to write the records of the deeds
and the names of the doers.
The Key of knowledge Is in Our
Hands.
1t is said that the characteristics of
the Irish race do not include zeal for
historical knowledge. This is false.
But were it half true, the cause could
be plainly traced to those times when
it was illegal to seek knowledge of
Irish literature and Irish history. We
have made history, but we have for
gotten to read it. Much that is called
history" is repellant to Irish ideas
and hostile to Irish principles.
Yet the chief defect in the cultural
plan of preserving the facts of Irish
history is due to our ignoring our
own power to disseminate these facts.
For it cannot be longer hidden from
the most unseeing eye that every race,
and every nation, must have its own

sands Of our parochial schools there
is not single volume of Irish his
tory. Hundreds Of thOusands-even
millions-of children whose blood
coursed through the veins of the soil
iers of the old Irish race are pouring
over the tales of other lands-familiar
with the names of Troy and Waterloo,
but ignorant of Clontarf and the Yel-
low Ford. Is not this spectacle the
most astonishing example of racial
suicide ever presented? Is it not
folly to guide our children into paths
that lead away from the graves of
their fathers, and to hide from them
the glory Of their own people?
The Peril Of Hostile History.
There is justly most powerful
sentiment in favor .of according his
tory a high place in the education of
youth in all English-speaking nations.
Why should not our race demand full
recognition, and it's proper place, in
these histories? Is it not an abandon
ment of our dead, betrayal of our
principles, to let pass unchallenged
