Anglophone background, as
well as the bulk of the
Jewish community, Darcy
McGree Riding being the
perfect example, made no
move in our direction at
all"

. Jewish mothers (and fathers) have traditionally boasted, and
justifiably so, about their children's professional achievements.
But in how many parts of the world can a Jewish parent proudly
proclaim: "Meet my son, THE KNIGHT!"
Certainly Scotland must stand in the forefront. In
recent years Scotland produced three Jewish Knights,
two Jewish Members of Parliament, a Lord Provost
(mayor), and the only Jewish pipe-band in the entire
world!
Of course Scotland's most famous product is scotch
whisky. And America's favorite scotch is J&B. We care-
fully select the finest scotches and blend them for
smoothness and subtlety. The result is why we say that
RARE
J&B whispers.
Incidentally, you don't have to wait until your son
becomes a Knight or your daughter a Dame in- order to
•••• •
enjoy J&B. Any `simcha' will do!
