IRELAND SMALL,
BUT FASCINATING
Climate Tempered by Gulf
Stream and Ready Rain
Adds to GreenneSS,

The following extracts are taken
from a booklet entitled by the Irish
Roadside" written by John r. Todd:
Ireland is fascinating country. In
the three short weeks spent in wander
ing about 1t we became ardent ad-
mirers, and now want to 60 back again
to see it more completely and more
carefully.
Ireland is small. I wonder if we
realize how small! Not quite as large
as the State Of Indiana-in fact it has
1000 less square niles, although it
has about four and quarter million
people-Which is one-third more than
the population of the Hoosier State.
The shore line must be several
thousand miles, but a direct line across
country from Portrush in the north
east to Killarney In the southwest is
under 300 miles-not hard days
drive.
Also-Ireland is far to the north
some 1850 miles further from the
Equator than Savannah Ga, and
about 600 miles north of New York
City.
Ireland has long and lovely grow
ing season, with high average rain
fall. On the east coast it is 35 to SIS
inches; in the center of the island it
Is from 40 to 60 inches, and on the
west coast from so to 10 inches.
1t is surprisingly mild, with a mean
temperature of 40 degrees for Janu-
ary and 81 degrees for July.
Southern Flowers Grow.
The southwestern section is almost
uoplcal-eXotic plants from the mild
est cllmes grow out of doors. Many
shrubs and flowers will do well there
which cannot be raised, because Of the
cold, at our plantation in southern
South Carolina. One of the women
who managed the hotel at Parknas!lla
"A lovely spot on the water, some 80
miles south of Killarney-said she had
been there 10 years without seeing any
frost and seeing only one furry OF
snow. The delicate Peruvian fuchas
and the Indian datura- -fastuosa were
growing and blooming in the garden
where they are left all Winter.
1t is hard for me to believe that the
Gulf Stream, which, by the time it
reaches Ireland, is pretty we'll spread
out over the whole North Atlantic, can
be entirely responsible for such unex-
pected mildness.
Possibly the mild temperature and
the greater precipitation account for
the fact that the grass seems greener
and heavier, and all the flowers very
appreciably deeper and richer in color
than the same things here. I tried to
explain it by the soils and subsoils
but as far as could check into those
conditions the answer was elsewhere

Some CIOse--Up
Impressions of
TruueI abroad
Nv EDWIN ROBERT PETRE,

Director institute OF rorelsh lTaVel.
Noiseless cities are beginning to
boom, but we know only one really
noiseless city and that Is Venice. That
is the place where the author horn
tooteth not and the hoof of horse
maketh no clatter. We have always
commended Venice to those who want
sleep at night and quiet by day. Only
the soft dip Of gondolier's oar In the
canal at your door will break the
silence.
We Americans sometimes think Eu-
rope is unprogressive, but in Europe
they often think We are. We have
been asked in Brittany whether Ameri-
can homes had beds. We have been
asked in England if all Americans had
Indian blood. 1t was easier to answer
these than to answer the fellow In
Sweden who was surprised to learn
only about 10 per cent OF American
farms have electricity, whereas in
Sweden half the farms have this great
facility.
In Copenhagen we once tipped q
porter who carried our bags from the
train to the taxi. We gave him about
the equivalent Of Is cents. Believe 1t
or not, he handed us back some
change! We told him it was tip and
to pocket the change, but he refused,
saying that he belonged to a CO.
operative porters society and that it
was against the rules to accept as
much as we offered.
At cafe in Malines, Belgium, we
were sitting one day. talking with an
old chap who in faltering English
wanted to know if We were acquainted
with cousin of his who lived in q
place called Chicago. After a while he
said, Your Mr.. Lincoln is a great
man; is he still President?" We as
sured him that Lincoln had more in
f1uence over Americans than any
other President. We could not bring
ourselves TO tell him the whole truth,
and then we remembered We had a
Lincoln penny, which We gave him as
proof, and he was as pleased as II we
had awarded him a medal,
