Like no other places, Ayrshire and Dumfriesshire keep Burns‘ memory green. But his name and fame have penetrated lo the remotest corners of the world, and his star, after nearly two centuries, is still in the ascendent. Nor is this surprising. Burns was the poet of humanity; he knew life more deeply and more widely than most poets, and dealt frankly with every phase of it. He knew when to be delicate, when to be homely, and when to speak in words of burning scorn or rousing patriot- ism. He was steeped in the riches of old Scot poetry. could use with unerring sure- ness the stanzas of poets dead hundreds of I Q When the head of the house gets a look at his light and fuel bills at this time of year he may be forgiven a nostalgic yearn- o 'I‘artaii boimets and brightly colored jackets will be the order of the week com- mencing iVlOilCiEiy, January 30th.
