Candid criticism was mixed with astounding audacity iu 'sotno of the American "notices" of Harry Laudci. One ci-ilio said he couldn't understand how Lauder got his great reputation. Another was bold enough to say that Harry had no humour; The "most'unItindest cut of all" came when the singing comedian's own countrymen wroto to the papers complaining i of Lauder's Scottish accent. "The principal trouble," said one Caledonian, "is that he absurdly mixes tho Lowland dialcet and tho Highland costume. ' He 'loves a bonnic Hioland lassie,' and ho wears tho Hioland kilt. -Meantime he's talking tho dialect of Glasgow. Then take his Scotch sailor. Nobody over saw such an ancient mariner on the Scottish coast. Tho fellow has a sailor's head covering and a fisherman's high boots, but ho keeps his legs bare as if ho had on kilts. Of course, no sailor runs nbout with bare knees and high boots. Tho first little wave coming across the deck would fill his boots, and ho'd bo walking about after that in the equivalent of two buckets of salt wator.'' '■
