WON'T DO MUCH.

The protest to President Harding
about the shooting of prisoners OF
war in ireland is not likely to ac-
complish much. True, the shoot
ing was in violation of articles
agreed upon at The Hague conven-
ton; but there is not rule of
civilized warfare that has not been
violated by Great Britain long ago
in ireland. We scarcely expect our
State Department to take up this
case and call England to account
for this piece of barbarity. We
have had ample reason TO protest
in the name of civilization against
the savagery of Lloyd Georges hire
lings in Ireland for the past year.
But we have done nothing.

MONSTER PROTEST.

1t is expected that thirty thou
sand will march in the st. Pat.
rick's day procession in New York
City, which will be monster pro-
test against English savagery in
ireland. A contingent is coming
from as far off as Toronto, Canada.
Cities and towns in neighboring
States are also preparing ITO send
large delegations. Among the or
CARNATIONS combining to make the
paarde a memorable one are the
Ancient Order of Hibernians, Friends
of Irish Freedom, Clan-na-Gael
Gaelic League, Cumann ma mBan,
inc, and many Irish County, Social
Clubs, Cadet Corps and other So
cieties. The Protestant Friends of
Ireland also will march in the pa
rade. Rev. DR.. Lang, from that or
ganization, has pointed out the i'm
portance of making this years
parade the best ever held in New
York City. The White Crosse nurses,
whose sisters in ireland are doing
work similar to that of the Red
Cross, will have 500 in the process
sion on March IT. All the boroughs
of Greater New York will turn out
a record number of marchers. Col.
Alexander z. Anderson will be
Grand Marshal of the parade.
Schools, fraternal orders, institu-
tions, county organizations and
many women's societies will add to
the length of what the committee
says will be the biggest st. Patricks
day procession ever seen in that
CITY.

NOT THE OLD DAY.

ST. Patrick's day-the day OF
xdays-when the heart of the Gael,
no matter in what part of the world
his lot may be cast, is moved by
tender memories of old friends and
old scenes that perhaps he may
never see again. In fancy ne
treads again the well remembered
path, he hears the songs and the
daughter of the merry groups on
their way from mass; and he re-
calls with a pang of keen regret
the sports and dances, and the mer-
rymakings that made st. Patrick's
day the jolliest festival of the year.
How different from those he has
known will his conception of this
st. Patrick's day be! From the
daily press he has learned that Ire
land is virtually land of ruins.
Farm houses, factories, towns and
cities in roofiess desolation, and
new-made graves of slaughtered
non-combatants greet the eye of
fancy: but above all he visions the
fixed determination of the people
to fight to the last man for their
national rights and the heart of the
exile swells with pride as he con-
templates the unconquerable hero
ism of his race, and he inwardly
vows to do his part in aiding his
people to attain the goal of their
desires. This is the thought that
should be in the heart of every one
who dons his bit of green on st.
Patrick's day, and he will be false
to his race if he does not take an
early opportunity to translate that
thought into action.
Here in Louisville our Irish So
eieties will have no general celebra-
ton, but will assist at number OF
entertainments, the proceeds OF
which will be devoted to the Amer
iacn fund for the relief of the suf-
fering women and children in Ire
land. This is certainly most praise
worthy. Sons and daughters and
friends OF Ireland will not be slack
ing now that the call for funds to
aid their suffering motherland has
been made.

MAKE ENGLAND PAY.

The English and Tory propa-
gandists in this country are trying
to distract attention from England's
war debt to US by shouting make
Germany pay" Americas first
debt is to America, this country re-
ceiving none or expecting nothing
from Germany, but we must see
that England pays her just debt of
four billion dollars to us. That
loan was made possible by the
American peoples purchase of Lib
erty bonds, and no excuse can be
offered for nonpayment. For our
glorious part and sacrifices in the
war we have received little graft
tude, but we do expect the payment
of just debts.

If the authorities refuse ito stop

A DEBT OF HONOR.

It is a far cry back to the time
when we were a weak colonial peo-
pie huddled along the Atlantic coast,
scarcely able to support our exist
ence and a prey to hostile devasta-
lions. The Pilgrim fathers had a
long and bitter struggle to make
their colony a going concern on
the bleak New England coast, and
on several occasions they had to
appeal for help to outside sources.
In 1881 they were faced with fam
me, but a shipload of food, sent
from Ireland, saved the day. Again
10 1875 the colonists were in dire
straits. King Philips Narragansett
Indians had ravaged the settlements
and the resources of the colonists
seemed near an end. In this
emergency also the people of Ire
and came to the rescue and a
shlpload Of food was sent, which was
known in New England annals as
'sTne Irish Donation"
Today the American people have
H. opportunity to repay this gen.
lrVrafy. Hunger and misery are
rz66pine the Irish people. In the
~ oont3nued disturbances over
IS ne whole economic life Of the
nfsv hAs become ddslocated, uu-

ST. PHILIP NERIrs.

A two weeks mission will COM

Floyd and Woodbine, on Easter
Sunday, the exercises of which will
be blended with solemn observance.
Two Dominican priests, conspicuous
for their spirituality and eloquence.
will preach the sermons. At this
time the religious instincts OF even
the weakest in practice are aroused,
while the fervent are attuned to a
high degree Of spirituality; thus
both the lukewarm and the fervent
are the more responsive to the in
OPERATIONS of grace. Rev. Father

ever given in his parish, to which

LOWELL DEFEATED
LOCAL NINE IN
TWO LAST GAMES
LABOR DAY CROWD AT BALL
GAME WAS DISAPPOINT-
ED WITH SCORE

Lowell took two games from Bel
ding, Sunday and Monday. The game
at Lowell Sunday was a good con-
test until the locals blew up in the
eighth inning and Lowell run in five
scores winning, 8 TO 2. Lefty Stuart
pitched for Lowell and twirled
nice game, his support was excellent
Sauer was on the mound for Belding
and didn't pitch his usual form. He
was hit hard and his support was
very ragged.
Score by inning:
Belding 0 0 2 0 O %
Lowell 2 ! 000 o 5 %
Sauer and Simons; Stuart and
Chulski; umpires, Little and Speck-
er.
The Labor day game here was wit
messed by the largest crowd that ever
attended a game in Belding. The
grandstand and bleachers were filled
long before the game was called and
the playing field was completely
surrounded.
1t was very disappointing that the
locals could not win before such a
great audience, but the Lowell boys
showed some real class and those
who saw the game can plainly see
why Lowell is such strong con-
tender for the state championship
this year. Dresser pitched for the
visitors and kept the local hits so
well scattered that he was never in
danger.
Ross Mooney started on the mound
for Belding but was not in the best
form and was relieved by Sauer in
the fourth after five runs had been
scored off his delivery. Bob held the
visitors scorless from then on, but
the damage had been done and as
it was impossible for us TO secure
any runs his efforts went unreward-
ed.
The locals PLAYED a very poor game
in the field as well as at the bat
Errors were numerous and the Bel
ding club little resembled the Bel
ding club that stacked up against the
Kalamazoo team one week previous.
Every team has their off DAYS but
il was hoped that ours would be on
some day other than when we play
ed Lowell.
