Oppose all improvements. Oppose hard-surface roads — | the old dirt roads are good enough. Run down your town to strangers. Trade in some, other town. I Take your job printing out of town and refuse to advertise ini ycur home paper. Have the editor to boost home industries.: your schools, your churches, entertainments, et., but when you have a job of pi inting, as his reward, have it done elsewhere, will gladly consent to this *and pay his taxes cheerfully. Lengthen your face when a stranger speaks of locating here. Do not invest a cent in your town; put all of your money in tax-exempt securities. Refuse to see the merit of any project that does not directly •benefit you. 1 Do not boost your school. Be a calamity howler.

ST. PATRICK > March 17 is the anniversary of , the death cf St. Patrick, 1420 years ago. His birth date is unknown, but it is knwon that he was born in Scotland, near Dumbarton, and is snid to have been a nephew of Saint Martin of Tours. His baptismal name was Succoth. At the agp of 16 he was captured by Irish pirates and taken to the Island of Erin where he tended flocks for Ulster Chieftains as a slave. Six years later he escaped to France and entered monastic life. He then journey?d to Rome and was consecrated x Bishop. Soon after this he was directed by a vision to raturn to Ireland as a missionary and did o in 432 and until his deatji in 163 he worked zealously in varous parts of the island. It is said he found Ireland all eathen and left it all Christian, 'or he founded over 300 churches nd personally baptised over 12,•)00 people. He converted the leathen king to Christianity and nany of the chieftains followed. The Shamrock wasi used by him s a symbol of the Trinity, and ias been dedicated to him. Many legends grew up about him, the best known of all being he one which represents him harming the, snakes bv his mus e, so they followed him to the rashor* where they were driven nto the water and drowned. Many this venerable nan were held sacred for a thousand years, but most of them were dost roved during the reformation. One. his belb is snid u o be preserved in the Museum f Arts and Sciences in Dublin. T 'ie anniversary of his death s celebrated as a feast day in all arts of the earth where Irish have penetrated. For Iri--yimen in th island other ’and«* cutride of Ireland the poli’ical significance of the day ha* disappeared. The aim and ends 'o which renewed fidelity w’as hedged upon that day have been ichieved, and the coming Saint Patrick’s Day, as observed in America will be more like a Robert Burns Day as observed by Scotchmen here—an occasion for enewal of acquaintances and for keening the history, roetry and ‘raditions of their glorious anrient homeland fresh in mind.
