SCOTS WHA HAE ON HAGGIS FED.
BY SIN BAD. Oh, Scots wha hae on haggis fed, or porridge, or some such farrago, put up a cheer, for Miss N.Z. has been located in Otago. We thought our beauty had a chance of carrying the final honour, but Miss Otago leads the dance, congratulations pour upon her. Otago’s Scotchmen long have been the laughing-stock of the Dominion, for they’re invariably seen to stick to their timeworn opinion, that oatmeal may be classed as food, and bagpipe screeches ranked as music, although, to be a trifle rude, such things make people not a few sick. They’ve still a yearning for the kilt, though one to wear it were a rash ’un, and lassies somewhat strongly built are commonly Dunedin fashion. Yet though Dunedin atmosphere a mixture mad of mist and smudge is, yet it produces, it is clear, a type appealing to the judges. There’s quite a lot that can be said for this outlandish Scottish diet, in fact, to judge from Miss N.Z., our northern girls will have to try it.
