Patraic cen airde n-uabhair,
Ba mhór de mhaith ro meanuir,
Bhith in gellsme mheic Maire
Ba sen gáire in genuir.
(An Chríoch.)
To Jesus the Son of Mary.

Patrick, void of the height of pride,
Great were the benefits he devised.
He lived in friendship of Mary's
[son ;
Cause of joy was the birth.

The Brooklyn Philo-Celtic Society
is doing nicely since its reorganiza¬
tion — some new members being en¬
rolled at each meeting We have lots
of teachers now, the president, Broth¬
ers Mullany, Gray, Jordan and Logan
being always on hand to give instruc¬
tion. Secretary Galligan is tireless
in his exertions drumming up new
members.
Our lady members, too, are very re¬
gular in their attendance, particularly
Mrs. Svensson (our gifted poet), and
the Misses Guiren and McDonald,
who are well advanced in their Gaelic
studies. Quite a number of the mem¬
bers correspond with each other in
Irish by means of postal cards. This
mode of correspondence should become
common among Gaels as there is no¬
thing that improves a student so much
as practice of that kind.
The lrish (which is not in general
use) of several English words has been
asked of us from time to time; in the
next Gael we shall commence an ex¬
tensive dictionary of such words in
English-Irish text.
The Irishmen of New York and vicinity can ob¬
tain gratuitous instruction in the language of Ire¬
land by calling at the rooms of the P. C. Society,
12 E. 8th St, on Thursday evenings from 8 to 10,
and on Sunday afternoons from 3 to 6, o’clock.
The Philadelphia Philo-Celtic Society meets at
Philopatrian Hall, 211 S. 12th St., every Sunday
evening, where it imparts free instruction to all
who desire to cultivate a knowledge of the Celtic
tongue.
The Brooklyn Philo-Celtic Society meets every
Sunday evening in Atlantic Hall, corner of Court
and Atlantic streets, at 7 o'clock.
