And the methanol is the more dangerous, because it is cheap and pure, Wood alcohol when made* contains impurities which make it undrink- ably offensive, and it is expensive to deodorize. Methanol is pure and inoffensive to begin with, and it is very cheap. i It makes a palatable drink, not distinguishable by the taste from a milar drink made with grain alco- hol.

Celtic Congress Fears Trish Language Dying Out Dublin—)—There was recently concluded in Dublin an interesting epresenting all sections of race, delegates attending from Gaelic Scotland, from A and from Brittany. The discussions were largely concerned with the pre- servation of the Irish language. Eamon De Valero, said that emigra- tion from the Irish speaking districts of Ireland was the greatest difficul- ty to be contended with. He was satisfied, he declared, that those at the head of affairs, could, if they wished, get the money to establish industries to keep the Gael at home. Other speakers said the language was dying because the native speak- ers set no value on Professor Gruftydd from Wales said that any amount of teaching of the language in the schools was, of no more use in saving it “than a tinkling cym- bal” unless there were put into it something that gave dignity to the person who spoke it. It was urged that emigration from the Irish speaking districts should be stopped. A resolution was adopt- ed unanimously declaring that Irish should be essential in the final e: amination for degrees in every col- lege for doctors, lawyers and en- gineers, and that laws should be passed accordingly. —________+ | ATHOUGHT ! >—________—__+ Remember now thy creator in the di of thy youth, when the evil ‘§ come not, nor the years draw nigh when thou shalt say, I have no pleasure in them:—Ecclesiastes 1 The sestlng igs any nation: at i) time nds_on the opinio1 Young:'méh “ander five’ twenty—Goethe, eam Cae A serious shortage of people with nothing to say is reported, The more beautiful the moon the more autos you see parked by the roadside out of gas.
