will study it with impartiality and dig
interestedness, and breaking off from a
long established custom, will perceive
the futility of youth wasting time in Or
der to memorize languages which, if pre-
viously indispensable, are not SO
to-day; then, they were obliged
to study in order to obtain
knowledge of the different sciences.
which in our day are found translated in
the expressed languages, and that an
understanding of the two dead languages
is of little value in the present era. Ger
tain wiseacres say, in defense of Greek
and Latin, "that Latin is the key to the
knowledge of the other languages" The
result is that most of those who spend
time in acquiring the key never study
another language. Analogous to the case
OF the traveller who, when reminded of
the loss of of his trunk, replied, 81 do
not care, l have the key" After having
passed years in giving lessons in Spanish
experience has proven that many have
learned said language without having
studied either Latin or Greek. Ii the
said nations would adopt the proposed
plan the progress would be rapid,
and in few years the powers
might congratulate each other on the
great step towards realizing the beautiful
ideal of fraternizing the larger portion of
the universe.
In conclusion, let me say that the
Spanish newspapers should CO operate,
taking part in so important a discussion,
with the purpose OF inducing the Govern
ment to contribute directly to the estab.
lishment of schools for the Castilian Ian
guage in different foreign cities. 1t is
Indeed strange it has not been done be-
fore, since the Castilian tongue charms
many foreigners into learning it; and all
Spaniards residing out of Spain must la
ment said lack, which is often the source
of contempt or lack of consideration.
