HISTORIC OCCASION.
British Troops Cheered as They De-
part From Ireland.
From the New York Tribune

From the New York Tribune.
Happy Ireland and thrice happy
England, The British bugles will
blow no more in Dublin streets. The
British sunset gun has doomed for the
last time and British drumbeats no
longer echo in southern Ireland. For
the first time in long centuries the
flag of England has been lowered there
and the tri-color of the Irish Free State
flies in it's place.
There was the sort of friendliness
between departing British regiments
and the Free State troops that al
ways exists between fighting men.
There was an exchange OF Salutes ana

the British, with bands playing and
colors flying for the last time in Irish
winds. went down to the sea through
friendly, cheering crowds.

Illness of such Il farewell. Then the
guns of the British fleet might have
been necessary to cover such dis
embarkation. On Sunday there was
an enthusiasm and a real friendliness
and a disposition to let bygones be
bygoneS.

land was talking of new peace and the
hope of a Christmas truce between
Irishman and Irishman was spread

over the British is now complete. The

AMERICAN NUTS. BEST.
Dealer Says That Mediterranean
Peoples Have Been Surpassed.

From the New York Sum-
THE United States has made more
progress in nut culture in ten years
than Mediterranean peoples have
made in ten centuries. Without
doubt this country is now producing
the finest pecans and almonds and
English walnuts in the market to-
day."
The speaker was a downtown
wholesale dealer.
81 am myself Creek" he con-
tinued. "and would be interested to
claim first place for the imported
ones if. it could be honestly done.
But it cannot be claimed by any i'm
partial judge.
Look at these." He held out a
handful of large pecans.
Nuts like these, l think, were
never grown on the, earth before
They astonish me, even. Five states
now are producing commercial
crop-TeXas, Alabama. Mississippi.
Georgia and Florida. Scientific
knowledge of tree culture and endless
care and patience. both in the grow
ing and in the grading and packing.
That is what does it.
California almonds are much the
best. The uniformly large kernal
and thin shell are not available in
either the Spanish or the Asia Minor
almond crop. The same is true of
English walnuts."

drop the suggestion that, being beau

up an acting career.
So she took up acting. as Mr.. Briggs

it may seem. Miss La Marr really
wants to play heroic roles-the part
of the sweetheart of the hero-but
her black tresses have condemned her
to "vamp" roles, just as Alice Terry's

Large increase in operations, many plants
running at full capacity Decided quickening of
operations in the steel business Automobile in
dustry running at top speed. Extensive build

June increased 80 per cent, according to report
made today by the United States Employment
Service of the department of labor. Approx

are needed to manufacture for growing de-
mand, that men and women have money with
which to purchase goods, and that portion of
the savings can be laid aside for investment
purposes.
