In the ancient Gaelic civilization, the lecturer récalled there was lit- erally a "school of poetry", where the extraordinarily complex tech nique of Gaelic poetry: was taught. After the English invasion and the substitution of the language of the conquerors for Gaelic, the art of poetry declined. There was no poetry written in Ireland by Eng- lish-speaking Irish before the mid- dle of the eighteenth century. The nineteenth century was given over to politics to the exclusion of things purely literary. Then a few young men with W. B. Yeats as the moving spirit, 'seeing that political unity was long in coming, dedicated their efforts to educating Ireland to take a pride in herself. A Gaelic League was formed to revive the ancient language, and an Irish Lit- erary Society to educate young Ire- land in the literature of its own and other countries, It was never a part of the pro- gram of the 'Irish Literary Society to start a theatre in Ireland, the lecturer continued. Gaelic culture had no drama, nor anything to com- is visiting pare with the old mystery plays of MACDONALDS )) ( InlO%,15¢, and Fune Cut vith ZHG-ZAG spore art. {4 ttache 20% Pa kages | | | | | England or Continental countries. In the efforts of Yeats and his as- sociates to enlist interest and assist- ance in the theafre ement, much of the success was due to Lady Gregory, "of whom every intelligent woman should be proud." Forty years ago there was in Dub lin no Irish theatre and no Irish plays. In the attempt to create a national theatre it was necessary to begin at the foundation--to create plays, train players, and create a theatre to play in. It was hoped to build up a drama in which the der~- er thoughts and emotions of Ireland would be revealed, and Ireland shown, not as a land of buffoonery, but of ancient idealism. This aim, the lecturer believed, has been achieved. There has been driven from the stage--"and from cartoons, except in old-fashioned papers like Punch--the stage Thishman of popu- lar idea with his high hat, clay pipe and blackhorn stick,--a type that never existed." An important dramatic literature has been created. Success had not been achieved easily, but in the face of inertia and opposition on the part of the Irish people themselves, while lack of funds constantly hampered the movement Acknow- ledgement was made of the assist- ance given by an Englishwoman, Miss Horniman, who provided a building for the theatre company free of charge for several years, and also gave a small subsidy, Mr. Robinson spoke of the new type of dialect plays introduced by the Abbey Theatre. J. M. Synge, Padraic' Colum and others wrote dialect plays, about humble folk, treated in a manner that showed that such themes could be made into plays of distinction. This type of nlay influenced the drama written in England, notably that of the Man- chester school, and also in America, the lecturer pointed out. By the beginning of the Great War the Abbey Theatre was defin- itely established, but it just man- aged to survive the war, and it lost its chief plavers. At the end of the four years it found itself with only £100, and started in to build up once more a theatre company. The Abbey Theatre does not take play- ers who have played on other stages Mr. Robinson explained The disturbed condition of Jrejand during the fighting with Englanc and civil conflict afterwards reduc- ed the theatre again to difficulties. When the Irish Free State came into being the Abbey Theatre was offered to the Government, but re- "used as being too small for its idea of a national theatre. Later, how- ever, the theatre was subsidized to the tune of a thousand pounds a vear, and in his recent budget, the Minister of Finance, Mr. Robinsor said, has removed the entertainment tax from any performance in which real' neanls appear, and doubled it on the talkies. In spite of the Gaelic passion for tory telling, there were very few story writers in Ireland, the lectur- er said. In fact, it was only within the last ten years that there has heen really an Irish prose literature. George Moore had become an im- portant figure in the English speak- ing world, and Ireland claims "the most controversial figure in the lit- erary world today,' James Jovce. The younger poets are in two groups, one Gaelic in form and the other akin to modern English, Mr, OTTAWA WINS SUIT OVER RESOURCES Will Not Have to Account For Lands Alienated Before 1905 London,--(C. P, Cable)--The pro- vinces of Saskatchewan and Alberta have lost their fight to have the Dominion account to them for lands alienated by the Dominion before September 1, 1905, when the pro- vinces came into being, The judicial committee of the Privy Council dismissed, with costs, the appeal of the Province of Sask- atchewan from a ruling of the Sup- reme Court of Canada of February 3, last, when the Supreme Court favored -the Dominion, The Pro- vince Of Alberta was associated with Saskatchewan in the appeal to the highest tribunal. The case arose out of negotia- tions for the return of the natural resources to the province of Saskat- chewan. A series of questions was referred to the Supreme Court, which concurred in the Dominion Government's claim that it had to account to the province only for any of the natural resources sold or otherwise alienated since the pro- vince was formed in 1905. The pro- vince argued that the accounting should cover all the time from 1870 when Prince Rupert's Land and the Northwest Territories became part of the Dominion. Provincial Contention The province contended that al- though the Dominion was given jurisdiction and control of the Northwest Territories and Prince Rupert's Land in 1870, the revenues thersfrom should not have accrued to the Dominion as a whole, but that the Dominion was virtually mn the position of a trustee for the pro- vinces later formed. The Dominion replied that there was no obligation on its part to administer the lands and appropriate the revenues for the benefit of any province subsequently set up. There was no disagreement as to the question of revenues from na- tural resources received after the formation of the provinces in 1905, Question of Fact Raised In the course of their judgment their Lordships said it might well be doubted whether there had ever been an invariable rule that a col- ony enjoyed its own land revenue It would appear to be a question of fact in each case, whether the Crown had placed its beneficial in- terest in the land at the disposal of the particular colony, "In the present case," the judg- ment continued, "it is® known the Crown had parted with all its inter- est in the land to the Hudson's Bay Company, go far as Prince Rupert's Land was concerned. As to the Northwest Territories, it is at least doubtful whether before 1867, the beneficial interest in the land had been entrusted by the Crown to any Robinson read selections to illus- trate the work of some of the pocts mentioned in his address.
