B—6 176TH BIRTHDAY OF BURNS NOTED St. Andrew’s Society Holds 82d Annual Dinner to Honor Poet. The eighty-second annual dinner of the Washington St. Andrew's Society, celebrating the 178th anniversary of the birth of Robert Burns, was held last night at the Willard Hotel with an attendance of over 100. John H. Ferguson, president of the Baltimore St. Andrew’s Soclety, gave the principal address after an intro- duction by Walter Davidson, president of the Washington society. He spoke on “The Immortal Memory of Burns” and characterized it as being, “not of the man at whom the citizens of Dum- fries looked askance, but the great poet; the inherent essence of Scot- land.” A high point in the celebration was the piping in of the haggis, a tradi- tional Highland dish, in the form of a cheese-shaped sausage of sheep and cow giblets inclosed in the sausage skins of those animals. It was made by Mrs. William M. Duff. Selections on the bagpipes by Pipe Maj. James Garrioch, Highland dances by Mrs. Mary O'Meyer and Scottish songs by Duncan C. Thomson and Miss Helene McLachlen brightened the evening. Representative Robert Crosser of Ohio performed the ceremonial of cutting the haggis, flanked by tartan-clad Scots bearing ceremonial axes, the while reciting Burns’ “Ode to a Hag- gis.” Guests of honor were, besides Fer- guson, John C. Paterson of the Balti- more society, George Renehan of the Hibernian Society of Baltimore, Dr. Edwin N. C. Barnes of the Washing- ton Canadian Club, Dr. John Evens of the Washington Welsh Society and Representative Robert L. Ramsey of West Virginia, all of whom spoke briefly. Other representatives of the Baltimore society were present. —_— Bl CITY NEWS IN BRIEF. TODAY.
