EDITOR DAILY GAZETTE—I don’t
know of any subject being any more
interesting than a census of all the old
Irish-born Irishmen and Irish women
living in this town. Ten years of time
will obliterate all the old genuine stock,
and the old people will soon be forgot-
ten. Norwalk has great reason to be
proud of the grand old Irish popula-
tion and they should be remembered in
print. x.

I don’t believe it pays to
tell lies in advertisements.

Nevertheless a great many
lies get told.

It isn’t proper, you know,
to say who tells ’em.

Not all my shoes are fine;
not everyone wants fine shoes.
But all. are good for their
proper uses; everyone wants
just that. ' '

I am one of those new-
