OPPOSE THE PROPOSED LOCAL HEALTH BOARD. Norwich Medical Society Passes Reso- lutions Against Health Bill Members of the Norwich Medical society at a special meeting held at the Backus hospital Thursday after- noon at 5.30 o’clock passed resolutions opposing the health bill for Norwich which has ben introduced in the state legislature by Senator John H. Barnes. The bill provides for a board of, | health for the town and city which ‘will comprise the mayor, first select- man and the judge of the city court. This board will be invested with the power to appoint a secretary, who will assume the duties of city heaith officer, town health officer, milk inspector and town school inspector, thus combining ell four offices into one. Copies of the resolutions _adopted will be sent to each of the representa- tives in the legislature from the town end to the senators from this senatorial district. A further resolution was passed advising a town meeting to be called, as the matter is considered of great concern o the people of Nor- ch. The resolutions adopted follow: Whereas, It is the opinion of this body that our community is in a con- dition as healthful as the various other communities of our state, a fact which we believe is due to our present sys- tem of caring for the public health: “Resolved, by this society, that it would not be for the best imterests of the’ public health of the city and town of Norwich that the bill introduced by Senator Barnes in the general assembly of this state consolidating the offices of city health officer, town health offi- cer, milk inspector and school inspec- tor, be passed, and that we as a so- clety hereby register our opposition to the pagsage of such act- Resclved, That a certified copy of these resolutions and of the record showing the action taken thereon be forwarded to each of the representa- tives in the legislature from the town and to the senator from this senatorial district, and a like copy to the chair- man of the legislative committee hav- ing this matter under consideration. Resolved, further, That as this mat- ter is of great concern to the people of Norwich, it appears advisable and necessary that a town meeting should Dbe held at an early a date as possible for the purpose of ascertaining the sentiment of the public with reference to said matter.

Case Against Cleveland Poe Continued in New London Police Court. Cleveland Poe, a negro, employed by the New Haven road at Midway, faced Associate Judge Crandall in the New London police court Thursday morn- ing, accused of stabbing Thomas Mc- Swane, also a negro, in a barroom brawl Wednesday evening. A contin- uance of the case was ordered until Friday, Poe being held in bonds of $1,000, which he was unable to fur- nish. The police declare that an effort was made to hush the matter before it reached the ears of the authorities, but the vigilance of Patrolman James O'Donnell thwarted the success of this plan and led to the arrest of Poe, who angsters who attacked and robbed him of $4. Following his arrest, he told the police that he used the knife in self defense. The alleged stabbing occurred in the saloon of Stephen Lewsky on Bradley street. The stabbing did not come to the at- tention of the police until O’Donnell saw several negroes leading McSwane toward Main street. Ho asked as to the trouble and was given an evasive answer. Later he learned that the man had been stabbed. O'Donnell traced the victim to the office of Dr. Joseph M. Ganey. There three stitches were being taken in the back of McSwane’s head, where a Jackknife had penetrated the skull. Poe explained to the police that he went into the saloon for a drink, when he alleges he was set upon by a gang of three negroes who knocked him down and kicked him. He says he drew a knife in self defense and struck McSwane, who, he says, was one of the alleged gang. Meanwhile his pock- ets had been rified of 34, all the money he had in his possession.

And safe to say he spoke tkLe sentiment of every one the two hundred who gathered in the big dining hall of the hotel to cele- brate the 158th anniversary ot Robert Burns, Scotland’s immortal bard. It was the eighth annual banquet and en- tertainment held in this city in homor of the great Scottish writer. At 8 o'clock the two hundred men formed in line and headed by Pipe Major Thomson playing Scottish airs on “tho bagpipes filed into the dining hall. The invocation was pronounced by Rev.

At 9.30 Toastmaster John MacDou- gall rapped the gathering to order and after a few preliminary remarks gave the toast, Robert Burns and The Land We Left. The response was made by Rev. John H. MacKay, D. D, L. L. D., of New York city. Rev. Dr. MacKay spoke in part as follow: Norwich has been described to me as having the most intelligent and el thusiastic lovers of Burns to be found in any of the New England or New York cities. That at least shows they have good judgment. And from what I have seen of Norwich as a city of great industries, beautiful homes and s_ccessful places of business I can well believe that its people are intelligent, enthusiastic and public spirited. Some- thing has furnished them with high ideals. And as 5o many of these peo- ple are from the land of the_thistle and the heather—the land of Burns— there does seem to be established a close connection between material prosperity and an appreciation of the genius of Robert Burns, and of the traditional ideals associated with the land of his birth. Scotland has produced many men Of genius, but to the name only of Burns have clubs and societies been formed the world over. Scotland is proud of Scott—the Bard of the Tweed, but men have not felt themselves called to celebrate his birth year by year. Scot- land is proud of Bruce—the Hero of Hannockburm, but Scotsmen have not felt the call to perpetuate his name by yearly gatherings. But tonight, wherever it is possible, - there are thousands of Scotsmen—in this coun- try, in Canada, in Australia, in India. in’ Africa, in Europe, in the irenches— God bless them! thinking and speak- ing and_singing about RGbert Burns. Why? Why has he thus been lifted up above his fellows? Why does the heart of Scotland warm to him, repeat his words, cherish his_sentiments, tell of its love for him? Because he was at Eighth Annual Banquet and Enter- tainment—Toasts, The Land We Left and The Land We : lemkupthngn.JdnHvMy,D.D., L. L. D., and Senator John H. Barnes. F——iy __“A success in every way,” was the of s sald, the visions he saw and the coun- try he loved. > Burns as a Man. t I am not to speak on the of or tell any of the familiar associated with his name, With these you are quite familiar. Neither 1to take you on a journey along west coast of Scotland to look at birthplace, or the Auld Brig, or, th or even the Bonnie Doon.' We ther to think of Burns with the tion of a great poet, with the sense of a great prophet and with the tender, burning sympathy of a great human being who spoke what he felt, pictured what he saw, and that with such exquisite tenderness that he has become the interpreter of patriot- ism and the loyal emotions of the hu- man heart. Burns' weaknesses were the misdirected expressions of what were theioblest, grandest, most distinctive qualities in him. With th as a key in our hands, it becomes pos- sible for us to make an_honest and helpful interpretation of Burns. Because Burns felt himself so keenly @ man, a human being, he found his finest 4mspirations in the things around him.” He did not need to resort to myths and folk lore. Anything that was touched by the human hand, felt by the human heart or seen by the human eye was subject and inspiration enough for his genius. For him then i speak wsa to epeak in poetry— brautiful, rythmic, natural. These ten- ¢or, ennobling, manly qualities are best seen in him as we consider our second thought— Burns as a Prophet. There is red blood throbbing through the heart of the man who could write: “A man's a man for a’ that” This was not true in the poet’ A man was one who held an official po- sition in a church—no matter what his private life might be. A man was one who owned a few acres of ground—no matter how unkindly he might treat those who worked for him. A man was one who had a bank account, or employed others to work for him, or had such an education as put him in some position of trust or in one of the professions. His standing depended upon the quality of his coat, or the amount of his land or his gold, or his family heritage. To. Burns this w wrong—it was meaningless. Beyon: and above these mere accidents of life there must be that which is greater than these—there must be manhood. This is the glory of the vision of Burn: —every man to be a man must have SENATOR J. H. BARNES soul quality! In the measurements of human excellence the first question to be answered ls: What is he as a man? This had burned itself in upon Burn: for among the humble friends with whom he associated he had found many of such sterling qualities of manhood that his own loyal soul revolted against the artificial standards the church and séciety had set up. It was therefors with the vision of a prophet he looked into the future and hailed the day ‘when a man should be judged by the worth of his manhood. This made ‘Burns sing of “honest poverty” in which a man could still bb “a man for a’ that. Burns Surely a Prophet. In this Burns was surely a prophet. A prophet is a man who 5o clearly in- terprets the good and the bad in pres- ent condjtions, and at the same time %0 senses the eternal trend of things, that he is able to proclaim the new things that are about to dawn. This personal worth is not fully uor current standard of measurement even yet, but we are much nearer it because of this heart cry of Robert Burns. Manhood suffrage is indebted to Burns. Many a soul weary with its struggle and lack of public_appreciation has received renewed vigor by singing “A man’s a man for a' that” And were he with us today he would sing another song: “A_woman's a woman for &' that.” See this again in his treatment of the religious conditions of his day. Burns was an intensely religious man. But every instinct of his being pro- tested against the caricatures of the most sacred teachings of Jesus as these were presented in the church and as he heard them on the lips of the so- called leaders of the church. There afe two outstanding qualities in every true Scotsman—his patriotism and his theology. He loves his country: he talks theology. Burns longed for the ¢church to have the spirit of its Master. It did not. The church had lost its vision; its ministers had lost their message. And they had lost their message because they ceased to be in- telligentlv human. They knew too much about God in comparison with their knowledge of man. To call them back to this is the meaning of the birning, scathing satires “Holy Willie” and the “Holy Fair” These were not to ridicule religion but mockeries He did not sing about anything— he simply saw ,felt and spoke, and lo! it was poetry. 'And the verdict of the tive land there is nothing superior to' them. There has Peen .blit one Robert Burns, and we are proud to call him our very own. A prolonged burst of applause fairly shook the dining hall as Rev. McKay resumed his chair. Rantin’ Rovin’ Robin. In his usual sweet tenor volce Al Cralg Taylor then sang, Rantin’ Rovin® n. THE LAND WE LIVE IN. The Part Scots Have Played in Ameri- ‘can Mistory. The toast “The Land We Live In” wns responded to by Senator John H. Barnes, who was next introduced by Toastmaster McDougall. Starting in a humorous vein, Senator Barnes soon bad his audience convulsed. Then set- tling down to a more serious _vein Senator Barnes spoke only in praise of the Scots and the part they have taken in the making of American history. Senator Barnes spoke in part as fol lows: It Is indeed a pleasure to be with you once again. I think it was Timo- thy Titcomb who once said that if there be one attribute of the Deity which we should respect more than another it is the attribute of patience. The Great Soul who sits at the head of the universe is not, never was, and never will be in a hurry. The whole realm of the universe has been wrought out in the august consciousness of in- finite leisure and omnipotent _ bliss, Surely you must have some of_ thaf attribute of patience, inasmuch as you have seen fit to allow me to Inflict my- self upon you for this, the third, time. While this beautiful world upon which we live was bullt so many years ago that none but fools and professors of geology attempt to reckon its age by the measurement of years—the life of man here is young, If twenty cen- tenarians shos stand in “line—the twentieth of stich a line would clasp the hand of Christ, and the fortieth of such a line would fell us that his name was Adam, and that he did not know who his mother was. This is the same Adam, who, his- tory tells us, ate the apple when of- fered him by his wife. I wish to tell you onme thing, and that is mot two, that if Adam had been a Scotchman, with the well known proclivities of the race, when Eve offered him the apple —he would not have eaten it. but would have saved the apple, and O what a lot of trouble he would have saved usi The Land We Live In. The original home of the Scot, is a little land, the northern part of an is- land in the North Sea, stretching al- most to a line with Greenland: a land of bleak mountains and rugged hills; beautiful moors—fresh with the smell of the heather, and lovely with the fox-glove and radiant with the blue- bell. Here on. these bleak hills, in poverty and free from excess of lux- ury was bred that strong and rugged character—appearing in the Scotch. It was that grand foundation that made you what you nd that has help- ed in a great degree to build up this grand republic. No race pure in blood has ever amounted to anything in the human or lower animal kingdom. _The Briton sings: “Saxon and Dane, Norman and Celt are we.” To make a great race we must have a cross. The grandest of all flowers in this country is the Scotch-American. You brought with you to the Land We Live In. the two Ereat traits of the Scotch: first, an in- extinguishable love of liberty, _both civil and religious, and second, an earnest desire for education. Your great and grand man—John Knox—placed a ladder reaching from the hovel to the college door. _His ambition was that there should be a schoolhouse in every parish in Scotland ——and there is today. The Land We Live In admires you for your philosophical way of taking things. They tell the story of the mag who hated his dog, and one day in anger he threw a stone.at the dog— it missed‘the dog—but hit his mother- in-law. “Not such a bad shot after all” sald the Scotchman. The land we live in admires you for your perseverence and for your integ: rity. It is true that you never refuse anything that is offered you—if you can get it free. . In this respect you are A.

Take them all.” Du Challlu left the village the next mggning. y friends, if that traveler had been a Scotchman, he would not have left the next morning; there would have been nothing doing on the leav- ing question. He would have married the whole six hundred—then sent for John Porteous and Archibald Mitchell —and they would have opened the largest dry goods emporium in that section—and had the whole six hun- dred working for them in the store. They tell us it is impossible to get the better of a Scot In a trade. They say it takes two Jews to get the Best of a Greek; and two Greeks to got the best of an Armenian in a trade. An Armenian once went over to Aberdeen —and in two weeks they had every cent he had. The land we live in admires you be- cause you insist on your rights. The other day in New York city—a Scot got into an argument with a cab driver over the question of fares. The Scot thought the price was too high. ' He was a member of the Clan McIntosh— drawing himself up to his greatest height—he said to the cab driver, “My man, you evidently do not know who am. I am the Mclntosh” “I dom't care if you are the umbreila,” sald the cabby. “I insist on my rights. Noted For Politeness. The land we live in admires and re- spects you for your politeness You may not have the polished manners of the Parisian French—but you have the good heart, and you are ever polite. You can't help it—it is bred In the bone—and_taught you from_childhood. A young Scotch Boy had been given a large red apple. Said his mother, “Joan JAMES HOLEIN you must divi#e your apple politely with your sister” “What do you mean by politely ?” asked the boy. “Al- ways give the larger part to your neighbor,” said the mother. The boy looked -at the apple, and then at his sister. He handed the apple to her and said, “You divide the apple, sis- ter.” We pride ourselves on the land we live in, and claim it is the greatest and best country on earth; the land of the free and the home of the brave. And it is the best country ‘on earth, but did you ever stop to think who made this Jand we live in? A little over a hundred years ago, we were a weak people, few in number and sub- ject to a foreign power. Do you know Wwho it was who first called upon our forefathers to shake off the yoke of oppression? Bancroft, the great his- torian, tells us. Says Brancroft, “The first voice for dissolving all connection with Great Britain came not from the Puritans_of New England, the Dutch of New York, or the planters of Vir- ginia, but from the Scotch Presbyter- ians of North Carolina’j Theirs was the voice from the wilderness bidding us throw off the shackles of serfdom— and become men, and the land we live in owes you the debt of gratitude. ‘When that voice had been heeded -the next step was that immortal doc- ument—the Declaration of Independ- encg. When the matter of the signing of ‘the Declaration of Independence came up for a hearing before the Con- tinental Congress at _Philadelphia men’s hearts were weak from fear and there was much foreboding. It was at this time in the history of our peo- ple that an aged patriarch arese be- fore that gathering in Philadelphia, a venerable and stately form, his_head white with the frost of years.
