DUBLIC discussion of Mary Ware
L Dement'S pamphlet, THE Sex
Side of Life" has been somewhat
handicapped by the fact that a
great many of those who have
rushed in to print to defend it or
to condemn it have not read it.
Several popular misconceptions
have arisen, and SO it may be con-
venient to tell what the book is not
before giving any account of its
contents. The little book has moth
ing to do with birth control, other
than brief reference to the fact that
in the opinion of the author, at the
end Of another generation, people
will more generally understand how
to have babies only when they want
them and can afford them"

Several years ago Dublin news

q large number of representative men
in Ireland for the purpose of obtain
ing their views: on the identity of the
shamrock. Nearly all of the replies
favored white clover.
This plant, known to botanists as
Trifolium repens, would seem to fit
admirably the traditional role that
has been ascribed to it. II occurs ev-
erywhere in Ireland, In pastures, In
lawns and along roadsides. From late
spring until early winter its leaf,
made up Of three leaflets, and its
CHEEKY blossoms, white with touch
of red or brown, growing In masses
close to the ground, may everywhere
be seen.
Although a wild plant, it enters
prominently into the life and well-be
ing of the, Irish people. Ireland is
predominantly an agricultural coun-
try. The dominant characteristic Of
Its agriculture is the raising Of live
stock on pastures. The best pastures
are those in which the wild white
clover is most abundant.
AS a result OF experiments carried
on not only in Ireland but also in
England, Scotland and other countries
of northern Europe, it is now gem

bols of st. Patrick's day. But how
many Of us know jus, why we cele-
brate the day or how much truth
there is in the mass of legendary lore
which has gathered around the name
of this man who for ages has been
regarded as the patron saint of all
Irishmen?
! In the first place, many people have
the idea that March II is. celebrated
as the anniversary Of his birth. It IS,
however, the anniversary Of his death,
and is his feast day instead of his
birthday There is dispute as to the
facts Of the dates Of his birth and
death. According 30 some, he was
born about SS7 A. D. and died about
4a3 A. d. making him one hundred
six years of age at death. Others
assert positively thafSS1e died about
461 A. D.. although all agree that
March II was the date of his death.
I Then there is the matter Of his
nationality and the place of his birth.
The latter is variously given as Scot
land. England and France, with the
strongest evidence pointing to his hav-
ing been born at place caleld Kill
patrick near Dumbarton on the River
Clyde in Scotland, although 1t is pref
ty definitely established that he was
Of Celt ancestry. Although he is
called st. Patrick. there are those who
would cast doubt upon his right to-
that title by saying that he was never
canonized and proclaimed saint in
Rome. But. the fact that he has al
ways been veierated as the chief
saint of the Irish church and has been.
Indirectly recognized asa saint by the
Church of Rome itself is regarded as
ample reason for his title.
The association of, the shamrock
with this saints day Is perhaps fanil-
lar to all-hOw Patrick, bringing the
message of Christianity to the pagan
tribes of Ireland and realizing that
they did not understand the Trinity
of God--God the Father, God the Son
and God the Holy Ghost. picked up
from the ground a tiny plant and
showed them this example of the per-
feet Trinity, three leaves on one STEM.
Ever since that time the shamrock
has been the traditional emblem of
st. Patrick and of the Irish race. but
according to botanists no one can be
sure. just what was the plant which
st. Patrick used to illustrate his
teachings and which has since been
known as the shamrock. Some assert
that 1t was the common white clover,
native to nearly all parts OF northern
Europe and northeastern United
States. which is sometimes called the
Dutch clover.
"The Dutch clover Is only one can
didate for the honor of being the Irish
national plant" says writer in the
New York World. "That 1t Is a strong
candidate with much in its favor is
illustrated by the fact that the Ency-
