Tt was the second cele- bration of the kind which the local Scotchmen had arranged, and like, the initial one,” proved a_decided success in every particular. There was a fine Yanquet, pienty of Scotch music, ex- hilarating specches and the spirit of' good feilowship and association. The dining room had been attractive- Iy decorated for the occasion, the por- trait of Robert Burns being hung in the front of the hall; surrounded with American flags and the Union Jack, While smaller®flags were displayed at each side, including the flag of Scot- Jand, Old Glory and the Union Jack.

About 9 o'clock, headed. by Piper Charles McKay of this city, dressed in Sotch costume, the large gathering marched into the dining room, and be- ing seated at the tables, grace was said by Currie Gilmour. Th- preliminary exercises being thus opened, the following choice banquet was served: Oyster Cocktail Mock Turtle Soup au Maderia (Celery Radishes Olives Broiled Fresh Salmon Hollandaise Sauce Potatoes Persilade Roast Vermont Turkey Chesthut Dressing Mashed Brown Potatoes Mashed Turnips Cranberry Sauce Haggis Neapolitan Ice Cream Assorted C: Roquefort and Edam Soft Crackers Demi-Tasse Cigars A particular feature *of the menu Cheese |Second Annual Banquet and | ture. ! of which made him great. derangement; Milton sold ‘his Paradise Lost for fifteen pounds and finished his life in obscurity; Dryden lived in poverty and distress; Otway died pre- maturely through hunger; Lee died in the streets; Stevens lived a life of per- fect warfare' with the bailiffs; Gold- smith’s Vicar of Wakefield, was sold for a trifle to save him from the grip of the law; Fielding lies in the bur: ing ground of the English factory. inm bor, without stone to mark ihe spot; Savage dled in prison in Bristol, eight pounds; Butler lived in. penury and died poor; Chatterton, the child of gehius and misfortune, destroyed nim- self. This makes a roster of a few of the sad incidemts that have come to men of genius, i Jan. 25, 1769, Robert Burns was born at Alloway, parish of Ayr, in a clay-bullt cottage, the work of his fa- ther's own hands. His father, William Burnes (so the family name was al- ways written until changed by the poct), was a native of Kincardineshire, horn Nov. 11, 1721. His mother, Agnes Brown, born’ March 17, 1732, was the daughter of a farmer in Carrick, Ayr- shire. The poet's parents were married Dec. 15, 1757. Willlam Burnes was then a gardener and a farm overseer. Ome of the greatest features in the life of Robert Burns is his human na- It was the things little thought This was so of Lincoln, whos> Gettysburs address was written on the train. Scotchmen all over the world where- ever they may be are celebrating Rob- ert” Burns, the man with a human heart, no one too.lowly to receive his sympathy. There are few who do not know the life of Robert Burns, but it is just ech gatherings as these that wlll perpetu- ate his memory. ¢ He refarred to his visit to Burns’ monument and birthplace and told of the impressiveness of the visit, feeling while there as if he were standing on holy ground., He read the poem by Wallace Bruce upon the dedication of Burns’ monument. Burns ever had a light heart, his heart lay close to the people and had he lived now it would have been of great benefit to the people. His life was shortened and broken for lack of recognition of his great talent. There is a lesson we can take from his life, for no matter what we do there is an opportunity fer us to scatter seeds of kindness, help the low and remember to treat all as if on the same level. He closed -amidst applause. 3 Ranting Rorin’ Robin was the titie of the song admirably sung by Hugh Kinder, who was in fine voice. Prof. James White played the accompani- ment. The Land We Live In. A. E. Mitchell proposed the toast The Land We Live In. The response was made by Currie Gilmour, who was most heartily received. His, response was characteristically given and aroused much enthusiasm. From the | was the hagsis, a famous Scotch dish which made such a hit 1a8t year. This was brought in by Patrick Scanlén In Scotch costume, bearing the pudding on a large platter, he being escorted about the tables by Piper McKay. This was given prolonged applause, and as it was deposited before Reid McIntyre he recited a poem on Haggis. This was finely dene in dialect, and he re- | ceived a big hand. | Seated at the head table were John MacDongall, toastmaster; Donald, Archibald Mitchell, W shanks, A. S. Spalding, Reid McIntyre, Currie_ Gilmour, James ~Henderson, John' F. Rogers, John 0. Lee and John McJennett. Cigars being lighted, Toastmaster MacDongall welcomed the large gather- ing and congratulated them on being able to obtain tickets to the celebra- tion. He presented as the first spealer, Highway Commissioner J. H. MacDon- ald of New Haven. Highway Commissioner MacDonald. Highway Commissioner MacDonald referred to his visit here several years ago, when he addressed a large gath- erinig on Good Roads, the meeting hav ing been arranged by A. S. Spalding, and ‘prefaced his remarkd with many amusing stories. Robert Burns, he 2a1d, was a good roads man. The large gathering reminded him of the fact J. H.

The progressive spirit of America bas been felt on every continent. You have seen the country grow in population, wealth and influence. He gave two illustra- tions of the opportunity given today Dy this country te all men, referring to Abraham Lincoln and Andrew Carne- gie as-two men who have risen to the top netch from poor beys. The immortal Lgacoln was elected president of ‘the Ulted States, being only a poor boy, but carried the coun- try by his patient wisdom. Andrew Garnegie by his life also illustrates the opportunities of American life and the fact that a poor boy can climb as high as he will. ‘We give you all the glad hand and welcoming smile that you may enjoy the benefits of this great country, were the closing words of Mr. Gilmour. The Star Sparigled Banner was sung jby Archibald P. McDougall with ex- cellent expression, the gathering join- ing in the chorus. The Land We Left.* James Henderson proposed the toast The Land We Left and the rosponse was made by William Jardine of Bos- ton, formerly of this city. He made a big’ hit with hls heaters and ‘received much applause, interspersing it with many pleasing stories. ‘Thero are two times a year,, said Mr. Jardine, that Scotchmen really come Gut of their shells, that is on St. An- drew’s day and Burng anniversary. On these two occassions they really seem { to_open up. 2 | Scotchmen, as you know, are nat- { urally reticent. They find it hard to orate or speak in public, but they are | great thinkers and very serious; it ig hard to get them to enthuse. “The Land We Left” is not a large {land. It is a small country and g poor one—and yet, with thoss disadvant- ages (if small ness of _territory and lack of riches are disadvantageous to her) see what a position she has held, ana’ still holds, among the peoples of the earth. . ‘What has Scotland done for civiliza- tion—for the bost influences which go for the well beiAg and uplifting of hu- manity? Has she been backward in raising her: volce for liberty? In the langunge of these later days, has she not always stood for “square deal ?” Tt is a matter of historical fact that the first public or parish school sys- tem known was introduced in Scotland by John Knox, and to this fact Scot- land, no doubt, owes in some measure her_greatness and the progressiveness of her sons. In every land you will find them—not all of them in posses- slon of great wealth, ‘but many of them filling positions of trust in| church, state and commercial life— | and all of them possessed with an hon- | esty of purpose, a devotion to duty. | and a determination to give the best | that 1« in_them to the peeple they are | working for, or to the eommunity 1 which their Jot may be cast. | I recently listened 1o an address by a United States senator, and he said that the wheat fields of ‘Kansos would now be a desert if it were not for the fihed, the genius of hier bons to inv tion.

She is proud of the | records they have made as good citi- | gen; rightness, proud of their devotion to| , proud of what they have dona for the honor and glory of the home- | land, and proud of what they have done for themselves, as long as it was henestly done. The land we left is a bonnie land, as one writer says. There are larger lakes, deeper rivers and higher moun-, tains in other lands, but largeness does not always make for beauty. It is the combination of mountain and valley and of wood and water. No marvel that the people love their land with unwonted fervor. As little Palestine of old, it is today the glorv of (all lands, a miniature of all earth's beAuty—the pride of the people. Mistress Lucy Hutchinson has re- corded that “God was good to a man to_let him be born in Scotland. Well may we ask ourselves the ques- tion, as did Macbeth, “Stands Scotland where 1t .did?” and that question is best answered in the words of Mr. McLean, editor of the Brooklyn Cit zen: “Let the world change as it may, however she is, dear old Scotland to us.” Her mountains rise as grandly as of old. Her lochs and rivers have lost none of their ancient splendor. Her pibroch still finds worthy echo in the hearts of her unconguerable sons. The world_has nothing .more beautiful to show than the pure, bright eyes of her loving daughters. 'The heather, the broom, the bluebell, and the daisy ‘minglé their colors and their odors as sweetly in her valleys and along ber hillsides as in the years gone by. The spirit of her patriots, her martyrs and her poets has lost none of ifs glorious ferver. .
