FISHER HONORED Is Named District Governor of Illinois Rotary Club The news that Prof. E.G. Fisher, ene time superintendent of the McHenry public school, had been named district governor of the Rotary club of Illinois willvexplain the rumor of recent date that the former superintendent was a likely candidate for the governorship of the state. No doubt some one had become confused with the two offices and thus the story started. While McHenry friends, who are many, are a bit disappointed that the rumor proved groundless, all will be pleased to learn of the honor that has thus been bestowed upon the former school head here. The district Rotarian governorship came to Mr. Fisher at a state meeting held at Bloomington, 111., last Wednesday and Thursday. One of his duties will now be to pay at least one visit each year to each of the clubs in his district and as this can and will be done oyer week ends the duties will not inierfere with his educational work at Rock Island, where he is serving as the head of that city's school system. For two years he servefci as president of the Rock Island society and while thus engaged his splendid work became known thruout the entire district, with the result that he has been accorded the important and honorable office of district governor. man from each profession in the com-* munity and the main object is of service and boosting of the city or town as the case may b& McHenry friends extend congratulations. » * Roy ^ OSTEND i , Hobart has been suffering from a severe cold the past several days.

When Washington was "unanimously adopted a member of the Society of the Friendly Sons of St. Patrick's" on December 18, 1781, he made the following reply: "I accept with singular pleasure the ensign of so worthy a fraternity as that of the Sons of St. Patrick's in this city, a society distinguished for the firm adjyerence of .its members p> the glorious cause in which we are embarked. Give me leave to assure you, sir, that I shall never cast my eyes upon the badge with which I am honored but with a grateful remembrance of the polite and affectionate manner in which it was presented." " It is not surprising that today when the ideals of Washington have been forgotten by many in public life that it is again the friends of Ireland that have successfully demanded a return to those ideals by leading in the opposition to the dangercus internationalism of such betrayals of America as the defunct League of Nations. One of the very important services little noticed by writers of American history which Ireland rendered America when this country was fighting for her freedom as Ireland is today was the revolt of the Irish volunteers. Coming at the time when England had her hands full with the American colonists' revolt and the threatened French invasion it did a great deal to aid the Americans to win the victory: According to M. J. O'Brien in a hidden phase of American history, on April 25, 1780, Adams wrote congress on affairs in Ireland, rejoicing in the help which the political situation in Ireland was giving to the American cause. Ireland's political situation then was what it is now, that of revolt against British tyranny, but the difference now is that Ireland has the attention of the world, particularly of America, as it did not have in the time of the American Revolution. Indirectly, therefore, America was aided by Ireland, which was, in Revolutionary days, keeping England in hot water at home while the colonies were with Ireland's assistance proving too much for George of\ England with his hired Hessians abroad. "America lost . by Irish emigrants," declared Lord Mountjoy. It is surprising then that the Irish-American should be what he is today of unassailable loyalty to America, while at the same time he loses sight of no opportunity to expose the dangerous wiles of British diplomatic deviltry which has succeeded in "pulling the wool over the eyes" of a great many, from the president of the United States to the lowliest sycophant of all things English in this land of freedom. British duplicity has been so rank that it is astonishing how an American can be hoodwinked by it. The Irish have on many occasions thwarted England in her designs and the Irish-American has given her one of the hardest blows that she has yet suffered in preserving the country from British overlordship. Is this too great a claim? Ask the senators in Washington and they will confirm that statement that had it not b$en for the Irish American America would today be a member of the British League of Nations. True, unaided the Irish American would have failed, but it was thru the agitation of the Irish American that the lovers of freedom throughout America were warned of their peril and assisted by the best element in America, the cause of American independence was once more achieved* Continued vigilance is, however, needed, as England never ceases her intrigues. Witness the absurd effort to throw dust in the eyes of Americans by her latest attempt to get control of the Pilgrim Tercentenary. She will try to make it appear that the world and particularly America owes her a great debt by sending the Pilgrim fathers to America, when as a matter of fact it was her brutality that drove these historic parsonages to our shores.
