Do Valwra Proclamation A year ago today Eamonn De Valera issued a proclamation declaring civil war would follow creation of the Free State. A few weeks later the Irish Free State bill passed its third reading in the house of lords, became wn act and received royal assent. Peace with Ulster followed within three days, Michael Collins and Sir James Craig signing an annistic agreement Its troubles .with the north at an end. the Free State struggled into Ik-:’!u. h'arrassed by Insurgents who followed Eamonn de Valera In open reive!!ion. At that time there were two outstanding figures, not counting De Valera. >n either side —Michael ''ollins and Arthur Griffith, mainstays of the Free State: Erskin Childers, “brains of the rebels,” and Rory O'Connor, rebel military leader. AII Are Dead All are dead. Griffith died of a sudden illness and within a month Collins was assassinated. Since that time O'Connor and Childers have been caught and executed.

WHAT THEY’RE TALKING ABOUT AT COLUMBUS

By W. O. DUNSON. COLUMBUS, Ohio. March 17.—Columbusites—and that means Ohioans, generally, for Columbus is the talk center of the State, being the capital as well as the hub of other Buckeye activities —are wagging a wicked tongue on a variety of subjects that range from the tomb of King Tut in Egypt to that of J. Barleycorn in the official burial grounds of the AntiSaloon League of America at Westerville, Ohio. For instance, there’s the 1924 presidential election. In which natives hereabouts have more than passing interest because of the likelihood of seeing two of the neighborhood boys, Warren Harding and Jimmie Cox, hook up in another set-to. Also, every time Federal Prohibition Commissioner Roy Haynes (who is an Ohioan, by the way), makes a public crack about Ohio being the model prohibition State, that gives the Buckeyes something more to gab about and to wonder how in the dickens the other States manage to survive, at all, at all. Will Harding Run? Will Harding run again? If so. how far will he run? Will Cox run again? If so, ditto?

TALBOT TO PRESENT TWO BIG CONCERTS Paderewski and Cincinnati Orchestra Due Soon, On Sunday afternoon, March 25, Paderewski, the world’s moat renowned pianist, will be heard in recital in the Murat, under the direction of the Ona B. Talbot Fine Arts Enterprises. His triumphal tour of this country is epoch-making in the annals of musical history, and no matter how large the auditorium, at his every appearance they are packed to the doors. In San Francisco last week Paderewski played to a gross capacity of over $24,000, in an auditorium seating 10,000. The Murat, while a large theater, is the smallest one in which the genius of piano playing will be heard this season. No one brought into contact with Paderewski can resist the clftirm of the man. To know him well is Inevitably to love him. While his mode of life for m ny years has been princely, while the great ajnd the little, tho world over, have idolized him and sought him, he preserved through it all a beautiful simplicity, a nobility, frankness and cordiality which are Irresistible. Sincerity in Basis of Pianist’s Charm The basis of his charm for others is found in his obvious sincerity. All who know him well regard him as a hopelessly honest man. Ke would have been still more successful in Polish politics had he been able to compromise with his conscience. lie is honest with others and honest with himself. One of the great seArets of his success in his art is his sincerity, his honesty. His attitude toward it was well illustrated a few years ago in an address he made at a dinner given In honor by the Bohemians of New York, a famous organization of musicians. Among otiier things ho said: "I tell you frankly 1 am not modest Instead of being falsely modest I am most sincerely humble, conscious of enjoying great privileges beyond my value; conscious of tho duty t> guard the high character, the noble punto.se and, above all, the dignity of my profession. I always try to hold high the character of my art, told It pure, whatever other people i.. ,y tell you. 1 will confess to you that I am a hard, persistent worker, one who has a respect for the masters, who stands with humility before God and art. Sucess. rnv friends, does not last. Public favor is easily lost, soon forgotten.” Final Symphony Concert Announced The third and last symphony concert of the season unde: the direction of Mrs. Talbot will be given on April 2 Mister Monday, at tho Murat, wi,*-n Frit? Reiner nnd the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra will present the moat notable program of the season.
