.at the Knights of Columbus Hall, was
success in every way and much en-,
joyed by nearly five hundred children,

first president, gave beautiful talk
for the children. The Misses Simonet
had charge of the singing which added
much to the pleasure of the evening.
Mrs. Phil S. Randall presided over the
gathering and many compliments were
extended to the children for their
orderly behavior and show OF appre-
citation. Much credit is due Mrs.
Chas. Gilman, chairman of the
child welfare committee, who had
charge of the distributions and Mrs.

the decorations. The Guild has af-

ERlN'S TEARS

The tears that lovely Erin sheds !,
Ger sorrow and glory flown;
The honor that her ,valor weds
And proudly claims her own,
Still lend beauty to her song
OF sweetest melody.
And rouse the nation, hostile long,
TO purest sympathy.
Her laurels rest in vanished gloom,
And lonely vigils keep;
Upon her peerless sons tomb
They seem to sadly weep.
Her music swells from shore to shor,
In plaintive echoings;
And vet, the royal crown she wore,
It sad, sad mem'ry brings.
0 Erin, may thy harp strings wake
To numbers bright and free,
And thus expressions discord break
In joyous sympathy.
Thou home Of martyr, saint and sage.
Long may thy praise remain
"A shining star in every age
Whose light shall never wane.

also at the National convention OF the
knights Of Columbus the movement
was highly recommended. AT that
time plans were formulated whereby a
scout troop could be organized in CON

Howard Monley to take charge Of the
organization in the state. Mr.. Ketter
recently received his commission from
| the National Catholic Welfare Council
and is now in position to take active
steps towards organizing.
The plans as outlined by Scout Com
missioner Ketter will place the respon-

Gil territory of each to appoint scout
commissions for the territory covered
by his respective council Each COM
missioner thus appointed will be Civ

ers will then take the matter up with
the priests in the parishes covered by
the council. Under the plan each par.
ish must supply at least 20 boys in
order to secure troop charter. Wher-
ever possible it is desirable to have
the parish priest either be the scout
leader or to appoint some respon-
sible man from his parish who can de-
vote two or three evenings a. week to
the boys and perhaps take them of on
"a weeks fishing trip during the sum
mer, or on a hunting trip.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR
AN APPEAL FOR THE SUFFERING
PEOPLE OF IRELAND.
New York, January 10, 1921.

glass;, New, York, January lU, ISzl.
To the Editor:
In Ireland today thousandsiof women
and children have been driven to the
pitiful refuge of the fields and open
country. Balbriggan, Granard, Tralee.
Templemore, Trim, Tobercurry, Lis
burn, Thurles, and numerous other
towns and villages have been burned
and are in ruins. In Cork alone acres
of business buildings and homes have
been wiped out by fire, and grim Win
ter has overtaken the homeless.
Over forty creamerieS, the cooper
alive plants of great and small COM
munities, built by Irish farmers, have
been RACED to the ground, and the eco
tnomic units they served have been
paralyzed.
Thousands of workers have been
| thrown out of employment by the burn
ing of factories and creameries and in
consequence of the generally disturbed
conditions in Belfast alone thirty thou
sand shipyard workers and their fam
lilies are on the verge of starvation.
| The transportation system has brok-
en- down, SO that it is difficult to dis
tribute even such supplies as are
available in ireland
To meet this appalling situation, and
to cope with it before it reaches a
point where it may menace the very
existence of the Irish Neople, the
American Committee for Relief in, Ire
land has been formed. This Com
mittee is a non-political and non-sec
tartan body, solely humanitarian ir
aim, which seeks the cooperation Of
all those in whom human suffering
levokes sympathy. This American
Committee purposes to supply relic
to the women and children in Ireland
without regard to political or religious
distinctions, through trained relic
workers, distributing foodstuffs, cloth
| ing, building materials and medica
stores.
! The suffering and the helpless i
Ireland seek aid from the American
81 people, who have never yet refused al
! appeal from the suffering and helpless
; To relieve the bitter need of the Irisl
i people, the committee therefore cor
} fidently appeal for aid to the humanit
!. of America
There is little to add to the abov
: save to point out that Ireland is Writ
ally the only place In the world wter
!. the destruction Of resources has bee
! continuous. Today industry lis par;
. llyzed in Ireland and the greater PAL
of the able bodied male population
: leading a hunted and fugitive e.
9 istence. If present conditions continu
unrelieved, the Irish race In Irelan
|, faces virtual humiliation. We ar
r confident that Americans of ever
i class and creed will respond prompt
4 to avert the terrible fate menacing
d people to whom they are SO closel
q bound by ties of kinship and Of q con
d mon heritage.

Washington, Jan. 7.-Revenue Off
against the toughest proposition any
men ever were up against" according
to Paul E. Meyers, assistant commits
sioner of internal revenue, whose tes-
timony before the house appropria-
tons committee was made public.
Discussing the need Of big force
and plenty Of money with which to
go after wholesale and retail bootleg
gers, Mr. Meyers declared it was
though proposition" because they
were dealing with the worst element
of crooks in the country.
1t developed at the hearings that
the bureau would need about S7,OOO,-
900 for the next fiscal year for pro-
hibition enforcement. Members in
sisted that with the deficiency to be
taken care of later the amount would
exceed 100000,
Commissioner Williams explained
that the department was having diff
Guilty in finding the right type OF men
to go after violators at the rate OF
pay offered and that they were open
to all sorts of temptation, particular
ly as to brides.
''Some of them have fallen, and that
was to be expected" he said. when
man feels the pinch of hunger he is
liable to go wrong"
Mr.. Williams said that, based on the
figures Of September 80, there were
100000 gallons of liquors of all
sorts in government warehouses and
that it was being withdrawn at the
rate Of 100000 gallons month. The
commissioner declined to venture an
Opinion as to how long it would be
before the country was actually
