Survival Diet
Sir, —My Ulster birth and 45 years’ residence in New Zealand enable me to view impartially the Scotland versus England aspect, raised by your correspondent ‘Tea and Toast.” Scotland's victory at,
the battle of Bannockburn ensured her independence, which it retained under her own kings; King James VI of Scotland became King James I of Great Britain. In 1707 the two Parliaments were united. The characteristic perspicuity and prudence of the canny Scot, ensures that most of them in old age do not have to rely for sustenance on their pension only. My admiration for this race, stems from an association with the Scottish 15th Division in France from 1914 to 1918. — i Yours etc.. SETH NEWELL. March 1, 1966.
