Two of a Kind
pf & has been said that when two Englishmen meet abroad they establish | a club; where there are two Irishmen there’s the making of a fight, but if there are two Scotsmen you have a Caledonian Society. Whereas the Englishmen re- , quire a couple of easy chairs, the Times | Weekly Review and a decanter, the Irishmen another’ opinion, you will discover the Scots earnestly seeking for two things-bottles full and Haggis canned." -Thomas Thomson, a Scotsman, talking in the "Scottish Magazine," broadcast in the BBC’s General Overseas Service. é
