OUT OF WAR'-

DE VALERA

A new, call to all Irishmen to unite in one State to "maintain and preserve Irish neutrality in the event of war" was made by Mr. de Valera recently.

Speaking at Ennis (Co. Clare), he said:-

"From a united Ireland Britain would have nothing to fear. A free, united Ireland would have every interest in being on friendly terms with her nearest neighbour, where- as an Ireland that is kept unfree or kept divided can have no such interest.

"The desire of the Irish people and the desire of the Irish Govern- ment is to keep our nation out of war. To enforce this policy will require the closest co-operation be- tween all sections of the Irish peo- ple.

"The people know that our next immediate object is to get the juris-

throughout the whole national ter- ritory.

"We want not merely the res- toration of the surrendered ter- ritory, but the heart and loyalty of the people who live in it.

"Is it too much to hope that in this time of anxiety and impend- ing danger our fellow countrymen in the North-East who differed from us in the past would join with us for the defence of those rights

Sufferings At Middle Age which we hold in common?”

Most women upon reaching the try- ing years of middle age begin to realise that they are not so young as they were. If you are one of those passing through this critical time, you need not fear that you can never again be well and happy.

You may have rather lost your grip on things, the old vigour and cheery energy may seem to be going, you get tired easily, your legs ache, headaches assail you and often your back seems ready to break.

What has happened is that your blood has become impoverished and needs the strengthening influence of

TUNNEL SQUAD

Miners and quarrymen are to form one of the strangest units in the A.R.P. Service in Newcastle-on- Tyne, The disused Victoria Tun- nel, used to transport coal from Spital Tongues to the Quayside, under the centre of the city, is to be turned into a deep air-raid shelter. The corps of miners and quarrymen now wanted by the A.R.P. authori ties are to help keep this tunnel pre- pared as a shelter.

New entrances are to be driven into the tunnel, which, if plans are confirmed by the Home Office, will accommodate thousands of people.

Other tunnels and coal drifts un- der the city are being explored, and it is hoped that they will provide Newcastle with one of the best series of deep shelters in the coun- try.
