DECLINING FESTIVAL
Sir,-I read the letter from "A Scot" (Auckland). I, too, was an Edinburgh lassie round about 1900, and _ still remember "Hansel Monday" and "The "Guisers." I write to say that hére in Hamilton we still open our door wide to the New Year and welcome first-foots when they come-bagpipes included. And TI bake by, own currant bun each year as well as several others for friends. I send greetings to all Edinburgh folks and say "Lang May Their Lums Reek."
