The girls who live on the east side
OF the dormitories thought that the
heat had failed when the breakfast
bell woke them on Wednesday
morning. Several ambitious souls
from Sussex. Topsy and BolituS
braved the storm and came to
3break fast A large number at
sended chapel. probably not because
1hey liked to walk In the wind that
almost blew every one across the
boardwalk but because a lack OF
chapel cuts made their presence in
morning assembly necessary There
were a number of minor accidents
hut no one was hurt at all The
storm door at the side entrance Of
Residence Hall suffered most The
whole front Of the door was blewn
of and broken in several places
Miss Dora Wilcox very kindly said
that there would be no glee club
practice on Wednesday evening.
Not long ago the Sim Fein side
OF the Irish question was discussed
on Wednesday morning DR.. Edgar
Jones who was formerly a resident
fof Newfoundland. gave the loyal
colonists' idea Of the Irish question
Dr Jones began by saying there
were two Irish questions-one qucs-
ton between England and Ireland,
another between Ulster and the rest
of Ireland The Sim Feinerss have
said that Ireland should be free be-
cause ireland is a distinct race. a
nation. Scholars have proved the
utter impossibility OF Ireland being
distinct race because OF the in
vasions and intermarriage with the
invaders The Sim Feiners also say
that England tyrannizes over Ire
band. In he old days England may
have tyrannized over Ireland but
recent Irish history does not prove
the Sim Feiners' statement An
other charge against England is
that ireland is overta1ed- This is
untrue. Before the late war. one
and one-haif million pounds per an
mum more was spent in Ireland than
was given into the Royal treasury
by Ireland. The present heavy taxes
are merely Ireland's part in the
debt incurred by the British En-
pire during the World War. Ulster
says that the question between Sim
Fein and Ulster is a question OF re-
ligion. II the Catholic party came
into power. the Ulsterites say that
they would be prosecuted through
their industries Belfast has the
largest linen indtetry the larges,
rope industry. a large shipbuilding
industry, a large tobacco industry
and the largest distillery. II these
industries were destroyed. the pros
perity of Ireland would be greatly
diminished England says that she
cannot allow ireland complete inde-
pendence since Ireland is the en-
trance to England. The opinion OF
the world Is that the British EN-
.pire is one OF the greatest II not the
greatest bulwark OF civilization. II
the heart OF the Empire. England
should be destroyed. then civiliza.
tion would have received a grea
blow. The questions have been sat
isfactorily. except in few cases
settled. There is to be an Irish srei
state with certain safeguards il
