It is not the largest but it is the homeland of the Irish people and that has set it apart in the minds of men. Ireland is nearly the same size as the State of Maine. It is not much more than one-third as large as the nearby island of Great Brit ain. If Ireland had as many people per square mile as Great Britain, it would have a population of more than 16,000,000. As it is, the popula tion is less than 4,500,000. An old name for Ireland is “Emer ald Isle.” This name refers to the fact that the island is extremely rich in plant life, with green grass, shrubs, and trees. An emerald is green, and so is Ireland. An Irish poet, Dr. William Drennan, is be lieved to have been the first to use the term “Emerald Isle,” when he composed a poem about a century and a half ago. Other names for Ireland are “Erin” and “Eire.” They are two forms of the same name. “Eire” is pronounced “Aireh.” It is used as an official name for the part of Ireland formerly known as the Irish Free State. It includes all of Ireland except six counties in the north. At the start of the European war. Eire declared herself “neutral. " Northern Ireland, on the other hand, stood by Great Britain from the outbreak of warfare. The peo ple were firmly for the British in their fight against Hitler.

Lucas, in charge of the Walla Walla recruit- | ing station. Applications will be accepted from any man 17 to 35 years of age, in clusive, holding a high school diplo ma and an amateur radio operator’s license. In the absence of above li cense, a man may have a commer cial radio telegraph or radio tele phone operator’s license or have been 1 engaged in actual repair of radio | equipment for at least three months. | Upon passing the physical exami- j nation, such an applicant will be sent to the Base Signal Battalion at San Diego for further assignment to a special course in RADAR mainten- | ance. Recruit training is waived, and a rating of staff sergeant is of- fered immediately. Men who fail to qualify in the schooling will be dis charged or retained in the service , for other duty as requested.

For by making full use of all the wall areas it immediately opens up the central floor space and makes the room seem larger and less crowded. A large rectangular room with win- dows across one end and two long walls to contend with, is difficult to give distinction to, but you can succeed by using lung, low tiers of unit shelves opposite each other along both long walls.

When an automobile is moving rapidly, objects flit in and out of one’s line of vision. If the eye mechanism is in balance and func tions easily, the images formed on each retina are transformed simul taneously to the brain, where they fuse properly. In the case of mus cular or other unbalance in the see ing mechanism, considerable strain is placed upon the eyes to bring about the adjustment needed to ob tain a simultaneous recording in the brain of the images supplied by both eyes. It is believed, says the in- stitute, that the efforts to make these adjustments cause fatigue that often results in nausea. History Moved, Not Man Alexander Scheffer lived from birth to death within an area of three blocks in the town of Schaffers- town. Pa., and still was a resident of four different counties. He was born in Chester county, married in Lancaster county, died in Dauphin county and was buried in Lebanon county. The territory in which he lived was subdivided from 1712 to 1786, thus accounting for the changes, historical researchers said.
