Rocky SnugPen In conclusion we are told that the hook is written to answer the prayerthe Scotchman has been so longpresenting: " O wad some power the giftle gie us. To see ourselves as others see us. " He. assures the Scot that for all the pain ‘his book may cause he is truly sorry, hut gives the time worn consolation. .. It is for your good and it hurts: me more than it hurts. you." Certainly that is not saying a great deal. for no man or woman north of the Tweed will lose an hour's sleep over it. Bo far as we are concerned we can with ease forgive all the hits, nay we even welcome', all the facts down to the most humiliating. hut, we do find it hard to forgive him for awakening our hopes of breathing a bright and bracing. if somewhat biting breeze. and then holding to our faces the musty odor of ill kept apartments, and stole ieata without the Brit snap of l mind or human to raisethe wind. How.. ever there Is no use in keeping up a grudge and if the hook gives' little evi- dence that the writer has brains. we shall suppose he did his hear and shall try to he content. For our part the old I rouplo-t slightly modified would exactly fit the ttitiatioht..- " He never said a foolish thing And never did a witstrone." W er." “I! chapters on drinking and crime bring up subjects that call for serious seam-hinge: of heart. hut one hardly knows when to take him serious- ly and when in u lighter mood He he- wails the drinking and immorality in much the same tube as he denounces the "Gm-h of old Gaul" as "acostume for small pretty hays too voungtx‘ be breeched."hnd asu dress that, tells of childishnens. if not of immodesty. or. " After duly hewailing the fatal mutua- tion that has borne in the Doticsto look down upon the land and rule the realm of church and tHale, he turns to the world of literature. Since humor is dead and criticism blind. because Scotchmen have got a hold of Punch and contrived to won to themselves into all the lending newspapers. our author gives usa speci- men of what he thinks criticism should he. In reading over his attempt one is reminded of Elspeth Mcmsdyeri'a opin- ions of preachers- "A preacher o' the I moderates " she BQVS " who gets lazy take to readin' auld sermons. hut when ony o' the Evangelicals get. lazy they take to repeatln' whole screeds d' scrip- ture. by way o' f1llin in." The latter Is exactly the. style of Crosland. He gives you page after page of Lamb. Watson. or Barrie and to whatever is against the 1 Scot he fervently exclaims ' Amen ' and i of what presents him in an thing of a human aspect, he says "Bah" then he rubs his hands and says with a self sat- istied chuckle. " That. is the way to Criticise." His Insight or. the want thereof will he seen ft om his way of dealing With Burns. .. The real reason " he says. " why Burns became and con- tinnes to he a sort of patron saint to the. peoples north of the Tweed is. that he was an erotic writer. a condoner of pop- ' ular vices," “It was he who averted that whiskey and freedom_gang togeth- 2 since Xmas, win be loving for their homo in 3 week or no u Mott. It in expound thus the Anninnuy sermons will be preached by tbe tur, Mr Auden-on. of Showtime. in the Pros. bymriun church hero. on the am Sun- day in Much. when the nannl guber- ing will be on the following evening. At firat he makes a twirly successful a'tempt to he funny. Very neatly he trips his man, whom he sees. as in some cartoon. with true features amusingly awry. reaching out with eager hands to grasp the earth and all that is in it, and shouting "Touch me. gin you dar." in the following fasltiotm-"But who that has a feeling for warfare would ftght with a Scatchuntu ? Such none. I hope does not breathe: the plain tact being that if a Scot heats you. he. beats you; whereas if you begin to heat a Scot he will assuredly hawl in the King’s name for the law, .. Hech Sirs rin for the polite Ah'm gettin' whnppet " Once again he turns a good point when he tells that a certain woman. on hearing that the B: itish soldiers. after the sack of one of the towns m the Indian Mutiny. had been chained two and two and sent. " as slaves, extGimed-" Gueed help the man thath tied to our Sandy." These are brighter spots but. if they are cases they stand In the midst ofagreat de.. sert. Our writer gets solemn as the owl and stupid as that other animal that only kicks. England he sees in the hand of the Scot. but the Southerner ts powerless to help it. Poor, poor, Cock. ney t, he can only' in itnpotency pour out the sad lament, " When Britain was ruled b Englishmen she wore t.he, epithet Lfd by good right; since. she has been ruled by Scotchtnen she has well nigh lost tt." ' Of all men, tkotehmen need the least to pray "Gie us a said opinion, o' our- selves.” Wherever he goes he walk. with lordly bend and carries the air of one who owns the land. This pleases him and uniuses others so that were it kept within hounds all might well be safufled. But of late things have been coming to such a pass that even canny common sense acotchmen are in danger of losing their heads in admiring their own shadow.
