hard question. have only met him
once. However, DR.. Scott is symmet-
rical, vigorous, propitious, congenial,
efficacious, dignifed, penetrating.

against sin-he grabs up anything in
reach of his gigantic hands and HITS
REAL HARD. Notwithstanding, the
people go out in large numbers to
year him. You can not sit within
