Preconcelved ideas are frequently shattered by first-hand knowledge. "The Granite City," for instance. is apt. to surprise anyone who has ac- cepted too readily the traditions that have gathered around the city

. and its inhabitants.

Perhaps it is the physical aspect of Aberdeen that lends color to the legend of exaggerated thrift. Other Scottish cities-Glasgow and Edin- burgh to wit-have a weathered, somewhat dngy look; the mellow-

The issue, therefore, is not so Simple as the opinion expressed at Washington would seem‘ to imply. Informed public opinion in the United States, to which body, as well as w the politicians, the Brit- ish statement of Thursday was ad- dressed, has yet to be heard from. If Postponement is actually re- fused, Uncle Sam may find himself in the position of the man who cut off his nose to spite his face.

Next he bought Percheron horses, Berkshire swine and Shropshire sheep. He had now struck his proper sphere and gait, and in a few years astonished ev- i eryone by carrying off the first prize at the Chicago fair for the best bull, and the gold medal at the
