he said was the privilege of educated
men to stand up for principle even
though it might not be popular, and
he asked whether he might not stand
for the principle of self-determina-
ton and home rule in Ireland. Is not
this Irish aspiration something to be
encouraged? Has not Ireland shed
her blood as freely as the others in
this war? Why not credit her with
this? 1t is not unpatriotic, he argu-
ed, to stand up for Ireland, but, on
the contrary, the principle of self de-
termination weighs most strongly
with us as one of the reasons of our
war. He showed the Knights of
Columbus that their order owes
much to the Irish, for if the men of
Irish ancestry were removed from
their ranks they would lose not only
most of their membership but most of
their influential leaders. These re-

INCREASE THE ACREAGE.
United States Asks Minnesota For
Winter Wheat


The United State government
wishes Minnesota's winter wheat area
of $4,000 acres to be maintained next
year. The acreage of winter wheat
in Minnesota has increased slightly
each year for ten years as winter
wheat has gained steadily in favor,
and farmers should not be discour-
aged by the fact that some winter
wheat killed in Minnesota last year.
Winter wheat killed out in Missouri,
Illinois and Nebraska also, and these
states are regarded as in the winter
wheat region. When a good stand is
secured winter wheat yields about rs
per cent more than spring wheat. 1t
has the advantage also of ripening
earlier and thus escaping drouth and

Lou Tellegen appeared at the Ma
tional Theater last evening as the hero
OF new Gallo drama, Blind Youth, :"
which affords him opportunity to dis

which he commands in this line Of ar

He Is cast as a young Partisan ar

through the love Of q beautiful Amer

sisted Mr.. Tellegen. in this instance,
in fashioning an interesting play in

peal may be only transient.
Mr.. Tellegen's polished manner and
high degree of dramatic vigor, his
complete artistic assurance, and poise,
his natural dominance OF the situa-

confirm the excellent impression he
made here four years ago in the
memorable production Of the Spanish

The stars support is in the main

They added much to the interest OF
the play. Marie Chambers was an ef-

character.

BeIasco-aDoIng Our Bit,

Doing Our Bit" the Winter
Garden extravaganza, opened at the
Belasco Theater last night for the
second and final week of its run in
Washington.
During the whole OF last week
crowded houses witnessed the per-
formances of the rather under
dressed revue and there is every
reason to believe that the same
standing conditions will
prevail at the performances OF the
current week.
Undoubtedly the center of inter-
est in the production lies in and
around the work of Henry Lewis
who carries with hlm-and distrib-
utes-some of the best comedy lines
that have been heard in Washington
this season. Although a number OF
his sallies have seen service in go
ing over the Top" before they be-
gan Doing Our Bit"-he gets
across well.

classification becomes more difficult.

going some for the ordinary run OF

The scenic effects Of Doing Our

immensely of the production. The
grand finale Decentralization of
the American troops in France" is
very well staged. The manner in
which it was received. however,
seems to indicate that the present
day sOlidly in-to-win- the-war audi
ence does not care for the exploita-
tion of American uniforms on the
stage
