In another column the sports programme for St. Patrick’s Day is given. All wishing to celebrate the time-honoured anniversary will find that their every wish has been studied and there is no reason why a 1 sociable and enjoyable day should not be spent. The ladies are given an opportunity to replenish their fancy stocks, whilst mere man has every opportunity of securing the price of one, without much exertion. And for the children, what with dancing and racing, theirs should be a glorious day indeed.
