Grogan and Boxer Completes 25th Year Of Greeting and Helping Homesick One From Erin NEW YORK. Sept. 23.-—'I‘he that who has been frogotten by 350.000 ' girls looks forward cheerfully tc meeting others and still is a. bit confident that those in the past have not forgotten entirely. He is Father A. J. Brogan. dir- ector of the mission which looks out for Irish immigrant girls as they arrive at the Battery here. He com- his twenty-fifth year of greeting these girls—home . slot: for Erin—and giving them a fair and cheerful start in America. Life for him is Just one shlpload of colleens after another. And to them this sympathetic. Joking, blue‘ eyed man with the graying hair and th. sing-song brogua of the old coun- tho promsied land they sought far more effective- ly than the Statue of Liberty across the harbor. Yet mostot' them never are heard from again nt'ter they receive the initial warm handiclasp and shelter. "They are not ungrateful." says l’uther Grogan. "We don't attempt to keep track of them or to intrude into their. lives after they are adjusted into new homes and have their eyes turned to the future. It is pleasant to meet one of our old girls now and then. But we find our happi- ness and interest in the endless pro- cession of new personalities who pause a moment and hurry on. "No good deed is ever lost. Don't forget that. We don't know its con- séquences. It merely passes out of sight. A go_od deed is hit a wave out there which passes its motion to the water around it, and the ripple is felt far away. “When an immigrant girl gets off the boat. she wouldn't care to stop even at the Waldorf-Astoria if it do- tained her from the friends she en- pects to see or frOm getting settled. She wants to be on her way." Father Grogan says they don't come back. 'But they understand that the door always is open, and if strangers try to take advantage of them because they have no home. they can return and find shelter. Occasionally they do come back, with stories of troubles or of suc- cess. A well-known actress who is permit to s. moving victim Pro.- duccr was one of the mission's girls. There's a woman lawyer upstate and several women doctors. The housekeepers in most of the large hotels are Irish women who began as molds just after leaving the mis- 51011. “Most of them get married two or three yours after they arrive." smiles the veteran of the glad hand. "Sometimes they come back for lllt' to perform the marriage cere- mony. Most of them marry Ipolice- men. firmnen and tradesmen and st-ttlo down to bring up big Amt-in icun families. "it used to be that the majority became domestic servants. Occa- sionally many years, becoming in fact Just like members of the fam- ily and their employers left them $40,000 or $50,000 in their wills. Not so many become servants now. The war taught them that factory work paid better. litany who wOrk- ed in stores in Dublin and other cities go right in as salesgirl‘s here. As a class they are much better ed- ucated than in the old days. and conditions on ships and at Ellis Is- land likewlss have improved." There are plenty or willing hands to aid the immigrant girls. but Fa.- ther Grogan's best helper—the oth- ers admit it—-—is his Irish terrier, Boxer. The dog has a. way of snug- gling against the knees of a. weep- ing girl which is altogether consol- ing and irresistible. "I don't take him with .me to meet the ships," says his master. "If he got that far. I think he'd go on back home as a stowaway. He's that Irish." Directing a mission for immigrant girls requires' resourcefulness and versatility as Well as a kind heart. Here is Kathleen Mavourneen whose Patrick failed to meet her. Here is a. wee Bridget who never put foot beyond her native Ballycolla or Kil- kelly. suddenly set down a‘lone in bewildering New York. Here is Nora has lost her fare to Omaha. and Jenny. ’who is ready to exchange the whole ocean for one drop of the River Shannon. All have to be at- tended to. - All sorts of people meet at the mission. An attendant from the White House come there once to receive an Irish girl who was Ils- ter to the President's wife's maid. "What our girls need is simply kindness." says Father Grogan. "But they can get along capably. no matter how they are treated. The kindness you show them, how- ever. is never lost and never quite forgotten." Imus DIRECTOR TO wan. HOLLYWOOD. Cal.. Sept. 2!

"The United Mine Workers refuse to arbitrate the terms and conditions that are to be written in and con- stitute a contract," said the tele- gram. “It will and does-arbitrate questions that arise under the terms of n contract ‘aftor the agreement has been made. No business man would agree to submit to outside ar- bitratIOn the te'rms and conditions that are to go in his contracts. "Coal operators do not agree or offer to arbitrate the price at which they shall sell their coal nor the amount of profit they may make. A clothing dealer would refuse to ar- bitrate the price at which he must sell a. suit of clothes. Then why should the coal miner be compelled to arbitrate the price at which he. shall sell his labor which is his only stock in trade? 38 “'ASHINGTON STREET HAZLETON. Pa., Sept. 25.
