dreds Of delegates who have been
in attendance at the Irish convention
here were today returning to their
respective States: to begin raising a
fund of -ss1 500 900 to support the
movement to bring freedom to Ire
land.
A copy Of resolutions offered by
Cardinal Gibbons at the final ses-
sion yesterday was being sent to
Washington to be delivered to Presi-
dent Wilson. The resolutions call
upon the President and Congress to
apply to ireland the great doctrine
Of national self-determination and TO
recognize the right Of the people Of
Ireland 70 select for themselves with
out interference from any other peo-
pie the form of government under
which in future they shall live"
The cardinals resolutions were adopt
ed unanimously. following which dec
laration Of principles, drawn and sp-
proved by a committee representing
every section Of the United States, was
read and adopted. Among other things
the declaration said:
"A state Of war therefore exists be-
tween England and Ireland, which, in
the interests Of the peace Of the world,
the Peace Conference cannot ignore and
President Wilson's great task Of estab-
fishing permanent peace will not be
complete until the Irish question is set

ton to which he has unequivocally COM
mitted himself and the United States"

CIVIC BODIESASK
SCHOOL PAY RAISE

An appeal for higher salaries for
Washington public school teachers in
order to alleviate "the deplorable
conditions associated with the COM
pensation of teachers" has been
made to the Senate in a letter, signed
by the leaders Of the fve most i'm
portant civic. organizations in the
District.
The letter, which was sent to Vice
President Marshall. reads:
aTo the Members Of the United States
Senate:
''The undersigned, representing the
largest civic organizations Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia, which in turn,
we believe, truly represent the entire
citizenship of the National Capital.
respectfully and earnestly call your
official attention to one Of the most
vital and pressing needs Of this com
muntty.
ssThis need affects a phase Of our
civic life that is second to, none in
Importance, and demands immediate
relief Unless remedial action IL
promptly taken by Congress, g condi-
ton that is already deplorable viii be
made disgraceful and q reflection on
our Capital City.
at is the need for a more adequate
compensation for the teachers OF our
public school system
MANY arguments and carefully
compiled statistics have been pre-
sented to the House and Senate COM
mittees on the District Of Columbia,
and this informtion merits the sert-
Gus considera tion of every member Of
our responsible governing body. A
careful study of the question will con-
vince one Of the urgency of the situa-
tion and of the necessity for a very
substantial increase in the basic pay
OF our teachers.
"As a result Of the insufficient sala-
riss paid them, they have been leav-
ing the school system in such large
numbers that the entire efficiency OF
our educational system is threatened
with collapse. It is not possible to
exaggerate the urgency for prompt

Do you know that plants pos
sess real sympathy for each
other?
A begonia becomes very much
attached to a fuchsia, and
if the fuchsia is removed
the begonia will be apt to
show IN its appearance that
something is seriously wrong.
All the various things of this
world do not occur in the
animal kingdom. In fact
some of the most marvellous
phenomena appear in veg
etable life.
Some scientists have even
gone so far as to say that
some day we win be able to
prove that even plants have
powers Of REASONING.
When that day comes we win
then KNOW absolutely that
animals THINK, for they
are of a much later stage
of evolution than plants.
This world sure is full Of won
derful and curious things.
And, the more one knows the
