ter conference to ascertain how the
association of Ireland and the British
empire can best be reconciIed with
the Irish national aspirations. 1t sug-

The British reply. written by Prime

is the basis of the British constitution
but we cannot accept as the basis of
a practical conference an interpreta-

to any demands you might present.

Lloyd George says he connot be-

legiance 10 the crown, and that If Mr..
de Valera's real objections is a fear
that the British proposals offer less
than liberty to Ireland, that matter
can be discussed in the conference II

to Fast Company Next Year.

In the days before William Hohen-
zollern kicked over the status quo"
the name of Ernie Shore seldom failed
TO appear under the heading, Five
Leading Pitchers of the American
League" He was a regular starter
every time the Boston Red Sox went
into a worlds championship series.
During the war, the navy put him to
pulling an oar in a whaleboat. He be-
came as good a boatman as he had
been a pitcher.
After the armistice and Ernie's dis
charge, he went back to the New York
Yankees, to whom he had been sold
by Boston for $4,000 He was ex-
pected to star again, but soon found
that a good rowing arm isn't neces-
sarily a good pitching arm.
He couldn't reach the plate, let
alone win a game. Higgins released
him to Vernon in the Pacific Coast
league. Same old story-cOuldn't last
an inning. Again he was released and
dubbed has been" of the worst va
riety.
Charles Graham, manager of the
San Francisco Seals, couldn't see it
the same way, and took Ernie under
his wing. Months passed and Shore
didn't appear in the box. But all the

FAMOUS LEECH CUP Is LOST
Trophy of National Rifle Association
MysteriousIy Disappeared Eight
Years Ago.

The cooperation of all American
rif1emen is asked in an effort to To-
cate the Leech cup, the oldest and
most famous of the National Rifle
Association trophies. The where
abouts of the magnificent and historic
prize has been unknown since 1913.
Since the disappearance of the tro-
ply became known persistent efforts
have been quietly made by the Ma
tional Rifle Association, with the
hope that whoever holds the trophy,
or who is responsible for its loss,
could be located, but so far all efforts
have been unavailing.

rowing kinks had been turned into
pitching kinks.
VernCn-which had diSdainfully re-
leased him-came into town. Ernie
stepped into the box and, without ex-
tending himself, pitched shutout ball.
He showed every bit of his former
cunning and control. Sam Agnew and
Jim Scott, old American league mates
of his, pronounced him the equal of
the old Ernie of the worlds series
days.
Now Ernie is about through with
the Pacific Coast league. He has come
back and is only waiting until next
year when he hopes to pull Home

money again.
