Republican A. p. Leased WIre1

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1s.-Rejec- tion by the DaiI Eireann of the treaty between Ireland and Great Britain, creating the Irish Free State, and the possibility of a plebiscite of the Irish people on the matter, were pre- dicted yesterday as probable devel- opments of the Anglo-Irish situation by Harry Roland, unofficial envoy from the Dali to the United States, in addressing the executive commit tee of the Association for the Recog- milton of the Irish Republic.
 Edward l.. Doheny of Los Angeles, president of the organization. headed the committee, which met to deter mine whether the organization should be dissolved in view of develop ments, and delegates from 35 states attended
 Assurances of support for the Irish cause should the Anglo Irish treaty be rejected by the Dail Eireann, cou- pied with congratulations to the Irish people on the magnificent struggle they have made for liberty and on the great progress they have already made towards it's achievement" is contained in a resolution adopted by the committee and cabled to Eamonn de Valera.
 While efforts of the Irish, the reso- lution stated, may not as yet have resulted in the complete realization of their hopes, we pledge our con tinued support to the Irish people and we take this opportunity of as sl,ring them we will continue to as sist them until they have gained the complete and sovereign independence for which they have fought

|COYOTE AND BEAR | ARE PALS IN FIRE
 STATION MENAGER|E

From behind a tree a coyote darted with amazing speed toward a cub cinnamon bear which reared on its launches, outstretched one paw and caught the coyote a buff amidships. And the rabbits, quail, squirrel and alligators laughed. But the coyote was up and away in a second and before the cub bear had quite recov- cred his poise from administering the telling blow he was knocked off his launches with the bullet-like i'm pact of the returning coyote.
 This game between the coyote and the bear is a daily event at the central fire station, where Teddy, a nine month old cub bear, has been added to the menagerie which has been gathered, is owned, controlled and attended to by members of the fire department. The furred and feathered family now includes Tn ad- dition to the bear and coyote a big black rabbit, a few Belgian hares and a whole flock of white rabbits, two alligators, one squirrel and sev- eral tame quail
 A tame mountain lion is on the way to join the group from the north and will arrive probably some time this week. A pair of foxes recently escaped and have failed 70 report back. In this they were unlike tie coyote, who had his freedom for an entire night without straying away from the city hall plaza.
 George Trowbridge and Doc" Me- Cam are in general charge of the mengaerie, although all the fire fighters contribute something toward feeding and keeping the pets. For they are all pets. Even the coyote allows those he knows to fondle him and the bear is a regular glutton for attention and caresses.
 Teddy holds the center of attrac- ton for the many visitors who are daily attracted to the playgrounds of the birds and animals. He is rap idly learning to be a real fire fighter, having mastered the art of ladder climbing. He travels up the high ladder of the aerial truck like vet eran and the boys claim he has suf- ficient grip in his forearms to hold down any hose under the strongest pressure. So all he requires now is A little training and he will be ready to join the force.
 Several dogs that had been in the habit of lettering around the fire sta- ton previous to the advent Of Teddy
 were at first inclined to be afraid of the big newcomer. But Teddy coaxed them into friendly wrestling matches which have become daily events and seem to be thoroughly enjoyed by both the dogs and the bear. The coyotes chain permits 1t to come
 within easy grappling distance of the | bear and the two engage in many lively tits.
 rr-,. -,.o~on+ ,-arreSap+ativa r11anar- erie was given its start 12 years ago when the firemen adopted "Old Rex, a coyote that became well known to | nearly everyone in the city at that time. He died several years ago, but there has never been time since his adoption that the fire station was without it's pets.

shopping days here. Merchants
checking up accounts on Tuesday
wore contented smiles. The crowd
was a buying crowd, and an en-
couraging number of sales were
made by various of the local mer-

buyers, who are obtaining furniture
bargains at below pre-war values

square assumed circus day proper
tons Saturday, and were duplicated
on Monday At intervals, the man
ager was compelled to close the
doors, taking turn about admitting
the throngs of expectant buyers,
because the crowds in the store be-
came congested.
Mr.. Greensboro states that he
was given a cordial welcome from
customers. and is highly pleased
over the prospects of splendid
business in Paris. He says he likes
the town, and the people, and is
glad he chose the place to locate.
Improvements on his store building
are going forward. and new goods

for some time, my friends through

When It has been determined
whether the nomination will be
made by primary or convention, I
expect to make formal announce

of the division and lay my case be-
fore the people,
The voters of the eighth chancery
division will receive this statement
from Gov Rye with great pleasure,

until it is thoroughly tried out.
