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 Bums, was held
last night at the Willard Hotel with
an attendance of over 100.
John H. Ferguson, president of the
Baltimore St. Andrew's Society, 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 Bums' “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.

SUITS

With Two Pairs of Trousers
If you ore looking for a business suit you will
do well to slip into one of these Woodshire
Twists—the suit which makes a business of
giving long service and an exceptional return
on the money invested.
It is all because of the special twist in the yarn
—it makes the fabric tough and rugged for
extra wear—and gives it "life" to hold its
shape better and fit comfortably day after day.
Slip into one and see yourself in one of our mir
rors. We feel sure you will be mighty glad we
suggested one of these suits to you. Every suit
has two pairs of trousers.
