O.B.E, DECEASED.

Of all the British races it is the Scots who take most readily and essly to exile overseas. A Scot you will find in every office and every bank from Penang to Peking; and benever you are introduced to "the oldest member a our community,” rest assured his speech will betray him for a venturer from beyond Tweed. The Scot settles down for good in the Far East with more com- placency than he does in his native country. He forces the life to content him. Unlike the Ecglish- seems able to forget

place for a short holiday. think of it as a good enough Englishman has a horror of dying out East; to the Scot it presente po terrors. He looks upon & " home" as a pleasant change of air- not as a wonderful bliss to be longed for and worked for year after year.

The Scot does not suffer as the Engluhman and the Irishman zRfISI. Bet upon the broad shoulders of both, of the toughened & ot and the home- ward-yearning Englishman, rezts the tremendous burden of British prestige. And mightily do they bear it.
