Plant Honored by St. Patrick Refuses to Grow in America.

Sure there are sharruocks and sharmrocks but no son or daughter of Erin will admit any of the varie- ties gracing St. Patricks Day this side of the Atlantic are worthy of the "trlfolium minus" accepted as the national emblem of Ireland, where it greens in profusion in the woods.

Ireland's shamrock refuses to thrive in America. Canadian florists admit this. There are several tri- foliate plants boasting the Irish [lame and used here as substitutes but they are “just elovers" to the exile of Erin. At the same time there is always a big demand for the pseudo-shamrock this time of the year and some growers in vari- ous parts make a specialty of its production.

While there is no commercial im- portation oi shamrocks from Ire-

land many Irish-Canadians an- nually receive sprigs of the tiny three-leaved plant from folks in the "Ould Sod."'Professlonai as well as amateur attempts have been made to transplant the species in Canada but without success. It's the ‘soil entirely-the patriotic Irishman is convinced of that.

Tradition has it the shamrock became the national emblem of Ireland when it was honored by st. Patrick who in his preophings to the Druids used the tri-leaf as an illustration of the Blessed ‘Trinity. "Bhamrakh" is Arabic for trefoil. held sacred in Iran asemblemat‘ of the Persian 'I'riads.

“The Lone Wolf Returns” At The Capitoli

Gay, romantic and exciting is the swift-moving Columbia story oi in- tel-national jewel thieves, “The Lone Wolf Returns," which opened yesterday at the Capitol Theatre. Melvyn Douglas and lovely, dank- haired Gail Patrick are co-ieatured in this picture, which is certainly one oi the most enjoyable photo plays of the current season. And Douglas adds to the prestige he earned in his first Columbia picture. "She Married Her Boss‘ by his sterling work as the Lone Wolf in this excellent story.

"The Lone Wolf Returns" is based on the famous Louis Joseph Vance story of the same name. On the screen the daring intrigues, the con- nivings oi the astute and elusive jewel thieves ,and the charming romance between the heiress and the debonair gem pilferer make grand entertainment.

Miss Patrick is lovely and her act- ing is splendid. Tala Birell handles her role as the conniving jewel thief in a convincing manner. Douglas Dumbrille, who enacts the role of Morphew, owner of a night club, is a handsome villain.

Henry Molllson, Nana Bryant, Thurston Hall, and the rest of the large cast give fine [interpretations of their parts.

heart oi the Irish folks. St. Patrick one day chanced to be wandering along the banks oi tho lake. He was carrying a golden rod in his hand said to have been given to him by a hermit. The rod was supposed to have been carried by the Saviour, and when St- Patrick sighted the dreadful monster oi the lake, he slew it with one strike of his golden rod.

These things were said to have happened on the 17th day oi March. thus the day bears the name oi the patron saint oi Ould Ireland. Other attribute the above date to the fact that, as nobody could agree as to whether St. Patri~k was born on the eighth or the ninth:

Organimd over one hundred years ago Th2 Benevolent Irish Society in Charlottetown has the distinction of being one o." the earliest foundrd societies in the Province and has a long record of accomplishments and charitable acts. At the time it ivas first organ- ized the society numbered among its mtmbers many of the loading citizens of Charlottetown, such names as DesBrisay, Warburton, Fitzgerald. Reddlii, Whalen. and McCourt being frequently mention- ed in the early records. Some of the past presidents were Hon. Ed- ward Whalen, Judge Reddln. Dr. Kelly. M. P. Kogan. Councillor Frank McCarron, P. I-I. Trainer. Councillor D. 0. Reddin. Peter McCourt, Sergt. Peter Bradley. Councillor P. A. Smith, v R. F. Maddlgan, Martin Walsh, Council- lor A. A. Hennessey. J. J. Duffy, John‘ O'Neill, P. B. McTague. Victor Ooyie. John A. Cronin, John A. Callaghan, and at the present time James H. McKenna.

The oldest member oi the society today is the patron Mr. Edward Smith. who emigrafed from Ireland to this country when but: a boy and (or some half a century has been an active member oi the Society.

The society recalls with pride that one oi its outstanding mem- bers in the early days was the Hon. Edward Whalen, one at the "Fathers of Confederation." The society to perpetuate his memory recently placed a monument at his grave and has undertaken to keep the plot in_ constant repair.

membership was greatly increased. Social evenings were organized, a move which at first some members were skeptical. but today these evenings are patronized by people from East Point to North Cape, and in the last five years the Charitable Committee has been able to carry on its work with the increased revenue. A sick fund is also carried by the Society for the benefit, of members and a sufficient sum. of money has been laid aside to take care of this benevolence. when a. Brother passes. the mem- bers meet at the hall and parade to the home oi the deceased the even- ing previous to the funeral for a special service. The members also attend the funeral in a body.

'I'he Society has a stronglyor- gahlzed debating class which has aided immensely in interesting members in education, and enable members to take their place outside the society. Other forms oi enter- tainment sponsored are class danc- ing. singing, bowling, and hockey.

The annuarbanquet which was inaugurated under the Presidency of Brother John Callaghan last year was an outstanding success bringing before the Society that true sense of sportsmanship and fellowship which has been exem- plified by the Irish people on many occasions.

In 1930 the hall was located in the Newsom Block but due to the large increase in membership the following year new quarters were secured in the Ca-ndalan Bank of Commerce Building. The growth of the Society has been beyond expec-

ation.
