A Bit About Ireland's
New First President.
Just a bit about President Hyde
of Eire-the British do not as yet
recognize the Gaelic name Of Ireland,
which Is used in the new constitu-
tion-who, by the way. was in this
country in 1905 and was a neighbor Of
the States when professor of modern
languages at the State University Of
New Brunswick He is an erudite
scholar as well as a poet. dramatist
and literateur of distinction. The son
of the Rev. Arthur Hyde, a Protestant
clergyman Of French Park, County
Roscommon, he was reader in the
rectory Of the parish. As young boy
he went up to Trinity College, Dublin,
and. Mr.. Brennan says. during his va
cations on bicycle tours throughout
the country he became intensely inter-
ested in the Gaelic language as spoken
by the people of the countryside
The music of the language charmed
him and the richness Of the vocabulary
as well as its simplicity intrigued his
ear and he there and then began the
study of Gaelic-the parent language
OF Ireland and now recognized as
the official language. After that
English is the second choice.
is elected by direct vote of the people
and serves seven years-and can be
reelected. He cannot leave his coun-
try except with the permission of
the Dali Eireann-the Parliament
and his official position is about that
of the English King in official mat
tiers. Mr.. Eamon de Valera Is the
Premier, whose duties are about the
same as Mr.. Chamberlain's Mr..
Brennan expressed himself as pleased
over the recent Anglo-Irish agree
ment which brings to close a costly
economic war Of six years duration.
Cattle farmers and agriculturists will
be much benefited by this agreement.
The preamble of the new Irish
constitution begins, I'm the name OF
the Most Holy Trinity, from whom
is all authority and to whom. as our
final end, all actions both of men
and state must be referred ETC., etc. "
And some Of the wording is much like
the American Constitution. There are
50 articles.
Mrs. Brennan Is
True Homemaker.
Mrs. Brennan, while she is a suffra-
glSt and exercises the franchise when
at home, is more of a woman's woman
in that her first interest-and it seems
to be a joy-has been in rearing her
family of four children-the youngest
now 10. She Is. however, au courant
with all that goes on in ireland in
matters Of state as we'll as the domes-
tic life Of her people. She and her
husband both speak the beautiful
English which is SO noted with the
Irish or Abbey Players. Outside of
her gardening-the house is a bower
of homegrown roses and other flowers
she has no hobby. She likes poetry
why not? She's Irish.

been extremely lucky in keeping
away from showers, although

times on the open road with not
a shelter in sight when the rain

AS for sleeping they are not en-
numbered with the botherances of
civilization. They sleep out UNI

Some of them have blankets and
oilcloths, but most of them do not
bother even with that. One very
necessary thing they were oblig-
ed to get, however, was mosquito
nets. They find them of use at
night.
Coming down, the boys traced
a route along the West Coast of

Three Sites For City Beach
Chosen In Preliminary Survey
Raul's Beach, Section
South OF East Martello
Tower, Section North Of
Rest Beach

A citizens committee, which
has been investigating the posi-
bility of building a municipal
beach at some point along the
Boulevard, on the Atlantic side,
will shortly initiate an engineer
ing shore survey to determine the
actual feasibility of the project.
In a preliminary survey, three
sites were chosen, the most pre-
ferable being that known as
Raul's Beach at the turn of the
Boulevard. Here there has been
found large deposits of sand on
the bottom, at low tide the water
being but a foot deep 200 yards
out. and a small beach having al
ready formed on the shore. A
deep channel on one side increas-
es the desirability of this site for
a bathing beach. A second site
is just south of Martello Tower,
and a third most desirable loca-
ton is short distance north of
Rest Beach.
Committee composed of Carl
Bervaldi, Lieut.. Edward McCar-
thy of the Coast and GeodetIc
Survey. Curry Moreno. Homer
Herrick, Fred Knapp and Frank
lin Albert will make the engi-
neering survey, which will con-
sist of more extensive examina-
ton of the bottom at those sites.
and an estimation of the possible
amount and cost of iron piling or
groins to be erected offshore to
bring the sand into the beach.
