land has contributed to civilization. The
Drawn Of Scotch brains has girdled the
globe. It taught the world "the dignity
Of man and the hatred Of oppression" 1t
prepared by example the Puritans who
helped to produce America. And limit
ing ourselves to America clone: the
Scotch and SCOTCH Irish first advo-
GATED American Independence. A large
proportion Of the Revolutionary troops
were from their ranks. They gave to
three states their;drst governors, to four,
their war governors. They furnished
thirty-nine general officers to the Cont
mental army. of whom ten were ma or-
generate, and nine out of twenty three
presidents of the United States. And in
those seemingly small matters that help to
develop nations, they introduced here the
potato and sx-culturs.
But Scotland has done moro than that.
She has added to the picturesque eymbol-
ism in the panorama of nationk: by her

as It is hard to see how she hiss

Scotland Ia very different from the hash
of other nations. It is strong and sweet
and spicy and has the SAVIOR Of centuries

and better and more fiery In Scotland
than anywhere In this known world.
And then character. The world talks
of Scotch granite and grit: The Seventy
ninth Highlanders and Black Watch are
synonymous the world over for fierce
fighting aud faithfulness unto death. It
talks of that rare and racy humor peculiar
to Sootchmen. We have no time upon
this occasion to draw from the stores of q
Scotch wit as strong as Its wine. The
sootehman stands for thrift. You remsm-

lishman, the Scotchmsn and the pretty
girl; how one day, passing along the
street, they spy remarkably pretty maid

''let,s 60 in and ask her to change

while she's giving US the change we can

logue of hardy Scotch virtues, till we read
the greatest gift of Scotland to tho world
men. From Wallace and Bruce, through
Knox, "who neve. feared the face of NOR

whom Randolph wrote: ''The voice of that
