But the clash of conflicting traditions has not yet been entirely silenced. A controversy about flags und national anthems has been carried on in the newspapers since Horse-show week.

The "Soldiers' Song,"
On the other hand, the auper sensitive Anglo-Irish complain that the 'Soldiers' Song" brought up memories of things done and suffered which the vanquish- ed had better be allowed to forget. That is true, and it is a pity that the Free State has aci cepted a national anthem of modern origin which, regarded as poetry, is no great advance upon its British rival. Why could not. the words of the British have boon adapted to fill the gap? Or if St.- Patrick is suspect, either as a Ro- man Catholic saint or as a for- eigner, our literary Gacle might safely have let us have something about Finn MacCumhal or even Brian Boru.
But what is done cannot be un- done, and the Sinn Féiners cannot now be asked to give up the "Soldiers' Song" any more than the Anglo-Irish can be expected to forget the words of "God Save the King.” Besides, the experience of Horse-show week suggestes' that {"reconciliation can be attained by " cach side allowing the other to he proceeds to London well in-sing what songs and wave what formed as to the policy and the flags it likes rather than by, any aims of his country in her self-denying ordinance under
