Frost, 'and then you jump out from

raj schools and cloisters founded by

There were some, however, VINO still

men in general and TO the doctrines OF
one--Duns Scotus, a great teacher Of
nc Franciscan order-in particular.
SO. whenever an adherent of the Old
order would seek To support mis- con-

Scofus his opponent would silence him
with the rejoinder. Oh, you are a

A Duns," an epithet OF score which
gradually found it's way into the ac-

altered spelling Of Ounce" Thus it Is
that the name of one Of the best known
doctors OF the Church, admittedly a
keen and sharp witted teacher, has
been turned into q synonym for stupid
ity and obstinate dullness.
