The use of slang indicates both an in
nately vulgar mind, and one sparsely
equipped with ideas, and more meagerly
furnished with proper words and phrases
to express even its few ideas. The art of
conversation is like all other arts attain
able in some degree by assiduous study,
first for ideas, secondly for proper and
elegant forms of expression. No person
who who uses slang can by any stretch of
fancy be regarded as saying anything
worthy of attention. He ought not to
be listened to on the one hand because
he imagines he is smartly and aptly ex-
pressing himself when he is not, and on
the other because his subject matter is
almost invariably on the same law plane
as his expression. Slang is the first step
toward obscenity.
