The talk veered to the stolidness Of
the Scotchman, who. in spite of every
suggestion, will not change after once
deciding. To Illustrate the point
Charles NJ. Schwab, who is one Of the
best story tellers, told the following:
Angus McTavish was a lowiander.
wealthy and thoroughly Scotch, and
had never seen the highlands or the
beautiful lakes of Scotland except
from a long distance. He paid a visit
TO America, and In New York, owing
TO his prominence, was shown all the
sights.
''Was he impressed? He was not.
and still thought the lowlands Of
Scotland far SUPERIOR.
''As a final chance to show Angus
something that would impress him,
the committee took him 10 Niagara
Falls. Angus looked at them critically,
and when asked II he didn't think
them the most marvellous thing he had
ever seeI, remarked.
