Latin Pronunciation Again.

Editor hennebee Journal:
Although | am aware that the subject of
Latin pronunciation il of no special interest
to the majority OF the journal readers and
should never have thought OF introducing It
myself, yet for the benefit of those who have
taken sufficient interest to read the recent
articles on Latin pronunciation, wish to say
that we are still using the Roman method,
and are likely to do SO until we discover some
better reason for change than has hitherto
appeared
Personally do now prefer and ALWAYS
have preferred the English, but l regarded
the adoption of the Roman advisable simply
on the ground that uniform method is ex-
ceedingly desirable. so as to do away with the
loss of time, confusion, and perplexity to
which the student is subjected by change of
teachers.
Facts show that uniformity is to be brought
about BY the adoption of the Roman.
Citizen" in his reply to "W., apparently
in order to make better showing for the
English, referred to only 1872 colleges of this
country; IN 80 of which the English is used,
and in ~, the Roman Now these figures
are misleading. We must take in the whole
field, if we would ascertain what is the real
tendency. OF 1903 college the Roman claims
l55, the English ia, ana the Continental "a,
a pronunciation closely allied to the Roman
In the l55 are most of the largest colleges.
1t is plain from these statistics that the
Roman has a long lead, and another signiti-
cant fact is this, that, while the English is
constantly losing ground, the Roman is meet
ing with corresponding gain This result
strOng substantiates the view that the
weight OF opinion among the most distin
guished scholars and phllulogists is in favor
of the Roman, especially when We consider
the opposition of Iong-seated custom and
prejudice.
The number who believe the earth moves
and not the sun is rapidly increasing. 1t is
far better to be in the car of progress than in
the coach of old fogvism | admire the Yam
kee enterprise of Harvard and Johns Hop
kins far more than the English conservatism
of Cambridge and Oxford.
With us, the question is not where are the
Conv High School graduates going to col
lege?' but "What is ultimately to be the
prevailing method of Latin pronunciation?"
And, AS facts point Enthusiastically to the
Roman, we are satisfied we have the strong
est reason for using it,
