THE fol owing is preamble and stat

The fol owing is a preamble and state
ment of the proposed spelling system
adopted by the American Pathological
association:
English spelling is the worst
il the word. Millions of dolla' s
are wasted each year il the writing and
printing Of useless letters. The educa>
ton of our children is retarded ard the
progress of our people is hampered by
our cumbr9us illogical. misleading orthc-
grafy. Tie scholarship Of the world is
almost unit in demanding a change.
The American Pathological association
has recommended the following rules for
new spelling, and resolution has been
introduced in congress Instructing the
public printer to conform to them in all
printing for the government:
1. Drop the ue at the end of words
like dialogue, catalogue, etc, where the
preceding vowel is short. Thus spell
demagog, epilog, synagog, etc.
2. Drop final c in such words as dif1>
mite, indefinite, fsvorite, etc. Thus spell
Opposit, hopocrit, requisit, etc.
3. Drop final tie in words like Quartette,
coquette, cigarette, etc. Thus spell
cigaret, roset, epaulet, vedet. gazst, etc
Drop final me in words like program.
oriham, gram, etc.
5. Change ph to in words like phsn>
tom, telegraph. phrase, etc. Thus spell
alfabet. paragraf, filesofy, fonetlc, foto
graf, etc.
6. Substitute for the dipthongs R and
&c when they have the sound of that let
ter. Thus spell eolian, esthetic, subpoena
essfagus, stheneum, etc.
If you would array yourself on the side
of progress, adopt the foregoing in all
that you write. and especially in all tina,
you print.
