Stands Scotland where it did? iva-s asked in the "Weekly Scotsman" of January 23rd. The question is frequently asked by critics, who would imply that all that is best in Scottish character and observance is oozing away steadily and surely. In some respects Scotland certainly does not stand where it did. Who, for instance, could believe that any public speaker half a century ago would- have had couage to stand up boldly in support of Sunday games? But, observing the modern tendency of youth to wander about idly and unprofitably on Sundays, the Earl of Mar and Kellie makes a strong plea for the use of well-equipped playing fields and the promotion of such games as lawn tennis, cricket, and football. Then, on the more spiritual side of experience, what Presbyterian of the old order would have countenanced the idea- of offering prayers for the dead ? Yet we find a preacher of the authority of Pr. Norman Maclean expounding the view that the life after death is but a beginning, and that the soul of the departed has difficulties to face of' which we cannot be unmindful. Days of dogmatic declaration of right and wrong are past. Fresh viewpoints are opening, up, calling upon thoughtful people to consider afresh the ground on which they are standing, and to decide whether the foothold is firmer than in the .past or is slipping away into the afcyss. A shilling ad trertiseinent in the classified section of The Pubss will sell vour ctoods. Try it. 12 words Is. three insertions 2s 6d. —0

When Dr. George Pratt,lnsli, of Glasgow, published. in 1924 his volume of "Papers relating to the Ships apd Voyages of the Company of Scotland trading to Africa and the Indies," he referred in the introduction to the generally held view that the company (commonly known as the Darien Company) was founded by .William Paterson, founder of the Bank of England. Dr. Insli stated:—"This assumption is hardly borne out by an examination of the early history of the company." It is now announced that Dr. Insh has solved the mystery of who the company's founders were by examining some seventeenth century MSS. preserved in a little iron Chest in Pilrig House, the old Edinburgh mansion to which B. L. Stevenson sent David Balfour in the opening chapters of "Catriona." It seems that the foundation of the company was the outcome of the efforts of two Edinburgh merchants, Bailie Robert Blackwood and J£*nes Balfour, the latter an ancestor of R.L.S. and of David Balfour. Although Paterson, however, was not the founder, he was chiefly responsible for turning the company's attention to Darien, where a colony was to be established "whereby to Britain would be secured the key to the universe, enabling its possessors to give' laws to both oceans and to become the arbiters of * a commercial world." Such hopes wore, perhaps, just too high to be realised.
