printing his novels in parts made this nee
essary- He was seldom FAR ahead Of the
printer. But ordinarily he considered three
pages good DAYS work. II he did four
and they satisfied him he thought II an
unusually good day.
Hc liked TO write. he described him
SELF as one "who writes and grins-sas II he
thought he were very funny irdeeL" This
was when he W7s well into his story. In

He could not hit upon names that salts

But once in his stride he seldom rcvrote,
and he plunged ahead joyously-
For every hour given 20 writing he set
aside another for exercise. He describes
how he walked about the black streets OF

IRISH PROFESSOR
FINDS WRIT NGS
Cycle OF Literature Devoted to,
Animals Is Uncovered on
Emerald Isle.

DUBLIN. June 25.-Dr. Douglas
HYDE. professor Of Irish in the Ma
tional university Of Ireland. has been
delivering a series OF lectures on
Irish FOLKLORE at Alexandra college,,
Dublin. and has made many inter-
esting new discoveries. He said there
must have existed in the middle ages
in Ireland a whole cycle of literature
dedicated 70 famous animals. He had
recorded some surviving specimens
of Il and translated them for the
first time
He showed that the ancient Irish
were familiar with the transmigra
ton of souls and that even in the
last century some traces Of the be
lief remained. In County Roscom-
mon a poem was written a century
or a century and a half ago telling
of a pig which, having eaten an
Irish manuscript. spoke and told the
owner how il had been a great
singer among the Turks fought at
Aughrim against the Irish and been
a hacker in France.
