IrMi people, being fundamentally an emotional- and an holy race, pay hon^e to our patron saint. We march in proce^onal order through prinolpai thoroughfares in principal cities the world over, each one of us wearing a sprig of shamrock, the emblem of our race. When we have done with march ing, footsore and wpary, we re tire to taverns to perform ' tlie ceremony of \wetting the sham rock.\ niis pleasant custom brands us a thirky as well as an emotional and an holy race.

Rather would we tell why It is we wear shamrock on Saint Patrick ’ s Oay. In the year 432, Saint Patrick came to Ireland to combat Pagan ism and' to spread the doctrine of ChrisWanlty. Shortiy after land ing, . he was pfaTeeaing -towards Tara, the seat of the High-King, when 'word came to him, of a ban quet which -the.' king was giVlng on the schools ’ pointed out jMi,-taken, 11 were ^e students who 10 ; of the subjects sit wm^jassed by as to ‘ mj I per cent- four by 84. per : int.

They iu ttaelr^ fury tumj^ to the king, saying: “O, king' live forever; this Are which has been limited In deffance will blase forever unless it be this very day extinguished. ” At once, the king ordered his soldiers to quench the Are and to dihfose Of flalnt Patrick with their spears.

The druids, realizing that they wAe in dan]^er\ Of losing ■ their high position if Saint Patrick suc ceeded'in winning the king to his cause,- exerted their strength against him. Nor was their strength to be considered lightly. They were well versed in and their Arst move was a cloud of terrible dai-kness over Tara. Saint Patrick, however, was not pertutbed. ' Calmly\ he dared the difiilds to lift the cloud. This they attengited In vain, bu<^ the saint, kneeling in prayer 'acednv pushed the feat, confounding thetn.

Again the saint knelt In prayer. He had but done so when Lochru was dashed to the ground and killed instantly. This was the Anal blow to the druids and to Paganism in Ireland. Afterwards, preaching before the king. Saint Patrick plucked from the sward a three-leafed shamrock to explain the mystery of the.Bles- sed Trinity. lit is because of that action that we, the Irish people, wear shamrock on Saint Patrick ’ s Day. We are as has been said before an emotional, a-nd holy and a thirsty race. Also, We'are'ro mantic, Incurably romantic.
