I thought it would happen. We Scots have raised so much pother whenever the word 'English' instead of "British" is used that the Sassenach is adopting reprisals. This being the silly season, newspapers fave room and to spare, and a [London journal is inviting its readers to discuss the subject. The result is highly entertaining. One correspondent, for instance, complains that the Scots' 1 Slogan is, "When it's English, it's British; and when it is Scottish it's Scottish." T other words, it is, "Heads I win, tails you lose." Ho says that in the war an English V. C. was a "Brave Britisher," and a Scottish V.-C. a "Brave Scotsman."
You will remember that, during the war, "Punch" made its own particular comment. It published the picture of a kilted soldier dealing with a wall in Belgium on which the Germans had chalked the inscription, "Gott strafe England!" and the infuriated Scotsman was altering the word "England" to Britain."
