Irish Legends Attract
Visitors to Tara Hall

Only space between two banks
In a green field marks the site Of
the banqueting hall Of Tara, once
the capital Of Irish kings and one
OF the most famous places in an
cient Ireland.
The hall was truly immense, but,
strange to say, some Of the docu-
ments OF early times minimized
rather than exaggerated its size. An
old Irish poem, for example, states
that it was 700 feet long, whereas
actual measurements show that it
was about 760, declares a writer in
the Chicago Daily News.
There is little to see at Tara, but
many visitors come to it each year
for the memories and legends it
evokes of ancient Ireland. Here are
the rath of Concubhar and the
mound of Naisi, central figures in
the tragedy of Deirdre, which has
formed the theme for works by
Yeats, Synge and "AE," three of
the country's most famous authors
of modern times.
Tara also has memories Of st.
Patrick, for it was there that he de-
fed the Druid priests by lighting
the Paschal fire in 432 A. D. His
tory says that the Druids warned
the king that if the fire was not put
out the man who had lighted it
would rule all Ireland. In reply st.
Patrick wrought miracles, legend
has it, overcame the Druids and
finally won permission to preach
Christianity in the land. The king,
however, refused to be converted,
preferring on his death to be buried
sword in hand looking out toward
the land of enemies he had hated all
his life.

Crichton,s Death bx Sword

James Crichton was a gifted
highly educated Scot. He estab-

of Mantua as preceptor for his dis

This youth, masked, with five COM
panions, attacked Crichton. When
Crichton pressed them too hard,
Vincenzo tore off his mask, where
upon his tutor fell upon his knees,
asked the princes pardon, and Of
fered him his sword. Vincenzo
plunged it into the body of Crichton.

A LESSON FROM SEVEN YEARS AGO

1t has been little more than seven
stocks collapsed. The drop was enormous,
the values of stock listed on the New York
Exchange falling from more than 80 bill
lion dollars to less than Is billion in less
than three years.
Millions of American citizens lost
money as the value of the stocks they own
ed dwinded to less than 20 per cent of
their value. Leaders of business, industry
and finance were at their wits end and no
one knew where the future would lead.
Today the value of the stocks on the ex-
change is listed at more than 81 billion
dollars.
Now, let us consider the lesson to be
derived from the fluctuations, as they af-
feet the average man and woman of this
country. With stocks moving upward the
land is again being flooded with sales
men, anxious to persuade anybody with
money to take shot at long profits to be
obtained in the market. There is no sug-
gestiOn that the stocks to be purchased,
over long period, will return a fair di-
vidend on the money invested. The argu-
ment is that the value of stocks is going up
and that the thing to do is to buy now, be-
fore they reach the top, and sell later, TAX
ing down the promised profit
This is speculation pure and simple.
1t is the beginning of the cycle which
wrecked the boom in the year 1929. If
many Americans listen to the advice of the
stock statesmen there will be rush to pur-
chase stocks at "low' prices, with an eye
to the rise This demand will initiate prices
abnormally and when the day of reckoning
comes, as it surely will, there will be
another flock of losers.
Years ago, when the bull market was
in full swing, we urged our readers to stay
out of the stock market. Not many of
them took the advice if we are judged by
their lamentations after the debacle. To-
day, we repeat the same warning. Unless
you are buying for an investment, with the
idea of retaining possession of the stock
you purchase, our advice to all readers is,
leave stock market gambling alone"

THE LIFE SPARK

Studies in biology and bio-chemistry
have developed many astounding facts,
many of which have been of inestimable
value to mankind, but the ultimate goal of
such research is to find the secret of the
life spark itself, and produce it from inert
matter.
That this will some day be accom-
plishetl is the belief of many distinguished
scientists, although this idea is flouted by
those who hold to the traditional belief in
the creation of all life by special acts of a
Supreme Being.
Prof. William Lash Miller, inter-
nationally known bio-chemist of the Uni
versity of Toronto, has produced in his
laboratory component part of living mat
ter, and his accomplishment is hailed as
one of epochal Importance by many fell
low-scientists.
Just what significance may be at
tached to Prof. Miller's latest discovery is
somewhat difficult for a laymen to judge,
but it appears that it may mark most i'm
portant step toward the solution of the
age-old question: What is life?''

AN ESKIMO IN NEW YORK

Able Bloomfield is the Anglicized
name of a 45-year-old Eskimo dog driver,
who has been enjoying his first visit to
civilization as illustrated by New York
and it's envirOns And he is getting many
an eyefull.
Staring at the Empire building, Able
pronounced it "big, big shack; bigger
than Cape Mugford." Most of the sights he
witnessed were observed in silence, but he
was evidently thinking lot, as he had
never been in a settlement of more than
so people before.
Being much like other sons of Adam,
Able was greatly interested in the New
York girls. Asked how he liked them, he
turned on flow of Eskimo oratory lasting
a full half-minute, which was interpreted
to mean, very fine" But he thought
they were too thin, and suggested that
they didn't get enough to eat. Asked how
he would like to have one of them for a
wife, he said:
you bet. Take her one year first
and give her plenty fried pork. | fatten
