announce the engagement of their
daughter, Lucy Mcintosh, to Mr.. Phil
Mcclellan McNagny, of Columbia
City, Ind, the wedding to take place
in the early spring at St. James Epis-
copal church, Marietta, Ga. The

of interest throughout the state
owing to the prominence of the fam
lilies as well as to the popularity of
the bride-elect. Miss Cole, who grad
uated from Lucy Cobb institute last
June, is a beautiful girl of the un-
usually Spanish blonde type. Though
she has not yet made a formal de-
but, she has been a belle in the
younger set and has made hosts if
friends among the older people by
her unaffected sweetness and friend
illness. Mr.. McNagny, formerly maj
or in the Forty-sixth infantry, U. S.
R., is prominent lawyer Of Indiana,
having been, with his father, associa-
ted with Vice President T. M. Mar
shall in the firm of McNagny, Mar
shall and McNagny, of Columbia City
Indiana.
One of the most interesting an
nouncements of the season is the
above from the Atlanta Constitution.
Miss Cole is one of the loveliest
Of Marietta girls, and it is a source
OF sincere regret to numberless
friends, that her marriage will take
her to Indiana to live.
Mr.. McNagny made a host of
friends while stationed in Marietta
during the war, who will congratu-
late him upon winning so charming
a bride.
The wedding will be a brilliant
social event of Easter week.

THE IRISH IN THE WAR-A RE-
PROSPECTIVE.
EDITOR EVENING NEWS:

EN ENlNG NEWS.
For centuries the struggle for lib
erty of action has been going on In
Ireland, for centuries there have been
the suffering and hardships of the
race endured by the succeeding gem
erations and the literature and the
art of the race speak eloquently for
the past. Every Irishman who has
come to this country comes with the
thought Of freedom. and the last hope
Of his expiring soul is that ireland
may be free.
TO him England has stood In the
path of this freedom and when the
great war broke out there were no
only in ireland, but in the United
States millions who felt that the Brit
iSh empire was about to be taught a
lesson. The average Irlshman, even
the Sim Feiner. is not pro-German;
but resentful against England, and
proof Of this Is that the Irish regi-
ments sought association with the
French or American, rather than with
the British.
Nor have these people mad a fair
chance in the war or In the education
of its broad import. When h Irish
mar Is once made to understand the
comprehensive significance OF that
struggle; when he grasps the fact that
this was not England's war, nor the
war of any II race; when he Is
made to see hat there is freedom for
all in the defeat of the principles rep
resented In the kaiser and slavery for
all in the success of those principles,
then there into his virile mind
the spirit of the ancient warrior of
the Emerald Isle and, as at Guile
mont, he fights with the abandon of
the fiend. He is the uncomfortable.
and the best business that a be done
for the Irishman Is to convince him
that in hat war he was fighting for
freedom Of all-that this includes the
fair isle he loves so well-for la
this been don there would be no need
of CONSUMPTION in Ireland nor would
there be any communion with the
agents of those who are called
Huns by other and a worse type
of Huns, and absorbed as truth by the
uninformed and u~nthinking.
But he must be assured that Amer
lea and all the allies will see to it
that Ireland's cause is a part of the
final settlement and that the principle
of self-determination includes her as
truly as it include Alsace Lorraine,
Belgium, Serbia and Russia.
There is a profound change coming
over the spirit of the Irish n this
change arises from the new thought
and the new confidence that the atti-
tude of the. United States is sincere
anu tHdL VIC IL" hOb n" 'H
sword until all races are free-and
that includes our splendid and gener-
Gus friends, the Irish, who stood by us
so nobly financially and otherwise in
the dark days when we were strug-
Cling for that liberty which is denied
to them. and when to do so was
equivalent to c~onfiscation of their
fortunes and death on the scaffold. or
in other words, they risked lives and
fortunes for American liberty.
Ireland never was pro-German she
has been, and with good reason, anti
English, and unfortunately this breeds
about the same line of conduct, as far
as the allies are concerned. Ireland
must be told the true story, and tell
1t to her honestly and then abide sa-
credly by the terms Of the promise We
make.

pEaRY-THE PERSISTENT.

There are two types of people in
the world-those who a be defeat
ed, and those who can't. Robert Peary
belonged to the second type.
Eight times he penetrated the
Arctic wastes before the goal he had
set himself was achieved. In 1886
his Polar voyages commenced, with a
reconnaissance Of the Greenland Island
ice cap. He followed this expedition
with another, June, 1891 TO Septem-
Der, 1892, when he reached the north
east angle of Greenland. lie discover
cd and named Melville Land and
Heilprin Land. lying beyond Green
land, and determined the fact hat
Greenland is an island. Again in
1898 and 1926 he made voyages to
the Arctic. In 1898 to 1902 he round
ed the northeast extremity of Green
land Archipelago, the last of the great
Arctic land groups, the most northern
land In the world. Each attempt push
ed him nearer to the final goal. In 1905
he started north again, and returned
in October, 1906. having reached the
highest north again-S7 degrees and
6 minutes.
Peary started his eighth and final
expedition in July. 1908. established
a winter base at Cape Sheridan,

were SEN back one after Il
other, the fourth leaving him near the
SSth parallel. and Peary himself with
one member of the crew and four
Eskimos made the final dash of $50
miles to the Pole, The goal was finally
reached April 6, 1902 years after
his first expedition.
Peary tho Persistent finally won! 1t
is good to know that he was an
American, and that there are more
like him. He las passed on, but the
example he set remains.
