IRISH UPHEAVAL

Affairs In ireland continued to &C.

according to Lloyd George, were much
better than they appeared on the sur
face. This the premier said after he
had conferred with Mgr. Patrick
Clune, archbishop of Perth, who had
been acting as his intermediary and
consulting with Sim Fein leaders. II
was said the bishop had conveyed to
Lloyd George a message from Michael
Collins. commander of the Sim Fein
army. which presumably contained the
Irish terms for settlement or at
least a truce. Father O'Flanagnn of
Roscommon. acting president of Sim
Feih, also sent message to the pre-
mier concerning a truce, and the cahi-
net, considering this. was reported to
have decided on reply embodying
these terms: mo amnesty no repub-
lie, and cessation from the present
campaign of outrage and MURDER
Sir Horace Plunkett. chairman OF
the Dublin peace convention. sailed
for New York to appear before the
American committee of inquiry, and
before starting said: II see no hope
of truce in Ireland nor any hope in
the overtures reported in the press.
There cannot be peace while there is
frightfulness on both sides. In my
judgment the British government is
blamable."
The American committee heard one
of its star witnesses Mrs. Terence
of Cork. whose appearance before it
was very interesting though probably
her views on the Irish problem are
given an exaggerated value. She was
preceded by her sister-in-law, Miss
Mary MacSwney. who told a long
story of the ,,rongs of her country
and freely admitted that in 1916 Ire

wo.sd have accepted from that nation
all the help it could get. This she jus
tilted by the assertion that Ireland
was Eat war with England" Because
of that "war" she defended all the
killings of British policemen and SOL

denounced the killing of Irishmen by
the English.

WHERE IS
CEDAR RIDGE?
BUCKS COUNTY FARM PRODUCTS
SHOW

If this question was put to me once
during the Bucks County Farm Prod
ucts Show it was asked fifty times.
Nobody had ever heard OF Ceoar
Ridge. AS the visitors looked over
the products at the show, looking Tor
ribbons, they invariably came to RID
bon tagged Cedar Ridge" After
totaling the prizes it was found that
Cedar Ridge won more prizes imam
any other section Of the county IL
was learned that Cedar Ridge would
receive the large banner offered by the
Bucks County Farm Products Show to
be held by them for one year, or until
some other community takes 1t away
from them. Cedar Ridge is just new
community organized within the past
eight months. Cedar Ridge itself IS
nothing more than a grange commu-
nity, located on the Ridge road, about
two miles north of Perkasie:
Other Communities Win Honors
Cedar Ridge, Of course, had some
conception. Richland came in with
high honors, coming second. Me-
gainesville came in third, Plumstead
fourth, Edgewood fifth, Pineville sixth,
Tinicum seventh and Solebury eighth.
There was keen competition between
the canned and baked goods, as well
as between the exhibits of eggs, small
grains, potatoes, apples and corn.
Sweepstakes
There were several sweepstakes
prizes in the show. The first sweep
stakes honor went to Walter Collins.
of PENIS Manor, for his exhibit of
corn. The sweepstakes prize in pota-
toes went to Henry Rabb, of Fountain
vile, in the Plumstead community.
The sweepstakes prize in eggs went to
Harry Wasmuth, of the Cedar Ridge
community. The sweepstakes prize
in apples went to Woodfield's Farm.
Pineville, on a plate of Stamen wine
saps.
The prize money was again con-
tributed by the Doylestown National
Bank, of Doylestown, and by ten other
banks of the county. The prize money
and the ribbons will be mailed to the
individual winners in a short time.
Attendance
About 1900 people attended the
show during the week in Doylestown.
People from every section Of the
county came to see the exhibits as
brought in by other sections of the
county. The. farmers seemed very well
satisfied with the show. The officials
of the show certainly had their ex-
pectations more than realized when
the one thousand and two exhibits
arrived on the opening day of the
how.

RED CROSS WAGINC
WAR ON DISEASE
Eighteen Health Centers Estab-
IiShed in Atlantic Division
Much Educational Work
Carried On.

Substantial Roadway has been made
by the Red Cross chapters in New
York. New Jersey and Connecticut in
forwarding the health program Of the
organization since the work was start
ed in the Atlantic Division about nine
months ago, according to reports just
compiled at Division Headquarters,
New York city. Eighteen Red Cross
health centers, the establishment of
which throughout the country is one
of the important features of the ma
tional program, are already in opera
ton in the three states. twelve In New
York, four in New Jersey and two in
Connecticut. Twenty-one more are in
process Of organization.
During the period named the Red
Cross has also assisted in the organ
ization Of nine health weeks, nine in
FAINT welfare clinics and four tuher-
culosis clinics, while 1,740 students
divided into eighty-three classes hayel
received first aid instruction NooDl
hour health talks at 125 factories in|
New York city and vicinity was one
of the most interesting features Of thel
summers work Swimming and lifel
saving instruction, long one of the
chief activities in the Atlantic Divi-
sion, were given to more than 100000
persons, Red Cross instructors visiting
about one hundred places in the three
states for the purpose of teaching and
preaching water safety. Upwards of
400 demonstrations were given by these
e-pert swimmers.
The establishment Of first aid sta
lions at state and county fairs and
other points where large crowds as
sembled proved to be a practical and
highly appreciated service. Speakers
from the division headquarters dis
cussed the Red Cross health program
at Columbia University, Syracuse Uni
versity, Chautauqua Institute and at
the gatherings of many health and well
fare organizations.
1.-THE interest of the American Red
Cross in the fght against disease is
not q new development" says state
ment from the organizations head
quarters In Washington. "Long be-
fore the war the organization began
this health service through its med
ical units In disaster relief work and
it's department of Town and Country
Nursing. During the war and follow
ing the armistice thousands of Amer
lean Red Cross officials have been
fighting disease in the war-stricken
countries. At the same time tens of
thousands of local Red Cross officials
have been engaged at home fighting
disease. notably during the influenza
epidemics.
"The American Red Cross has de-
termined that all this valuable expert
ence in health service abroad and at
home shall not go to waste. So long
as there are half million people dy-
ing yearly in this country from pre-
ventable causes, and so long as more
than one-third of the American chill
dren and young people are victims of
physical defects, the Red Cross recog-
nizes the urgent need for continued
Red Cross health service at home"

BOTH OPEN TO OBJECTION
Canadian Delegate Stlrs League AS

manship-Attacks on Article x
Prospects for Irish Settlement
Good, Says Lloyd George.
BY EDWARD W. PIckARD.

Congress is on the job again, with
plenty of work to do and the prospect
of not getting great deal of it done
before March 4, with the exception OF
appropriation legislation and the pos
sible passage of bills for the creation
of a budget and the restriction OF
immigration. President-elect Harding
for day or two, urged upon his col
leagues the need of quick and non
partisan work, and intimated that an
extra session would be called soon
after his Inauguration.
President Wilson was DESTROYS of
appearing in person before congress
to deliver his message, but was dis
suaded at the last minute by his ply
sicians and the document was read by
the clerks. In his opening generaliza-
tions Mr.. Wilson said autocracy was
again to the fore in Europe, and that
it was up to the United States to
save democracy by giving an example
of its successful operation, enacting
and enforcing just laws and standing
for right and justice as {, 1ard indi-
vidual nations" Aside from domestic
matters he made just two specific rec
concentrations. The first was that a
large loan be made to Armenia, the
money to be expended under the SUI
perviSion of an American commission.
Compliance of congress with this re-
quest Is made somewhat doubtful by
recent developments in Armenia,
where the Russian Reds are now in
almost complete control and have set
up a soviet government. The Presi
dent also advised that complete indie
pendence be granted at once to the
Philippines. This, too, will be opposed
by many congressman who do not
agree with Mr. Wilson that the people
of the islands have succeeded in main
tanning a stable government. Prob
ably most of our lawmakers would be
glad to get rid of the Philippines, how
ever, if it were not for the proposition
that we should guarantee their indie
pendence, policy that likely would
involve us in serious complications. if
not wars, in the not distant future
The President recommended the
early adoption of a budget system, the
institution of rigid economy in gov
eminent expenditures, better care for
disabled soldiers, revision and simpli-
fication of the tax laws and protection
for the agricultural industry-all of
which meets the approval of most of
the people.
The message made no mention of
the League of Nations but the predic-
ton was made in Washington that Mr..
Wilson would lay the treaty and cove
nant before the senate again, IN
changed. and would continue the fight
for ratification up to the moment of
his retirement from the White House,
and afterward as private citizen.
Another matter which he omitted from
his message was the restriction or
stoppage of immigration. This was
taken by some to mean that if con-
gress passed a drastic act he would
veto 1t.
