A Unique Violet Dinner.

A very pretty dinner was given at IL
o'clock yesterday by an Sth grade class of
girls in the cooking hall Of the second divi-
sion public schools. 1t was an award of
merit to the class having attained the best
results in the department Of cooking. The
work Of the day alone exhibited prompt
obedience. and that vigorous execution for
which Miss Roach's pupils are distinguish
ed, and the menu was a tribute to the
ability of the cooking teacher. Miss Walk
er. The young ladies decorated the table
with flowers and their own cut glass and
silver. There were violets everywhere,
menu cards with painted violets, doylies,
center piece and carving cloth covered
with violets, and violet bouquets for the
guests.
The room was handsomely fitted with
palms, ferns, rugs and flags School OFF,
Gals were present-Mr. Bowen and Mr.. N.
p Gage. The superintendent is out of
town, but his place was filled by his sister.
Mrs. Ellen Powell Thompson, whose work
in connection with the Anthropologtcal and
leading societies of women in Washington
and elsewhere is well known.

absolutely unknown to nine-tenths or more
of the workers in the Anti-saloon League,
as the ovation given him last Monday night
would indicate. i could certainly say pre-
vious to this occasion, as one of the speak
ers said at our last public meeting: Il
have never met Sergeant Daley to know
him. l do not know whether he is thirty
years old, or forty years old, or fifty years
old or whether he is a Methodist, or a
Presbyterian, or a Roman Catholic, but l
know that he has been faithful police
man.
1t is also true, os The Star informed the
public some time ago, that Sergeant Daley 8
name is on the rolls of the Anti-saloon
League as a representative from Rescue
Lodge, l. o. G. T. But his duties as a
member of the Anti-saloon League will in
no way conflict with his duties as a men,
Der of the police force.
AS to the work and aims Of the Anti
saloon League, l may ask for space to
speak more at length some other time. 1
may here say briefly that the Anti-saloon
League. as regards laws on the statute
books, stands with all lovers of law and
order and in working for more prohibitory
enactments against the liquor traffic it will
use no unlawful means, and desires nothing
but the good of the community.

ucator-, college professors and others, now
favor the simplifcation of our language in
the matter of its photography.
Words are constantly changing in their
meaning, well as in their spelling. AL
changes In language are and necessarily
must be, slow in their adoption; but every
step in the direction of simplification Is q
decided advantage to the world at large,
especially in this age Of rapid intercommu-
mic alton between the various peoples of the
earth. They greatly facilitate the universal
spread of ideas and improvements of all
kinds, bring the various peoples of the
world into closer contact and aid in bring
ing about that universal brotherhood which
in the far distant future shall put an end
to wars and their attendant evils. If ever
the time comes wheo
MAN to man the world DER
Shall brothers be, and a that"
no one thing will more aid in that result
than the spread of an universal language;
and nothing can so much aid In that as
simplifying the English language and keep
ing 1t free from the introduction Of I'M
necessary foreign words. OBSERVER.

Scrgt. Daley md the Anti-saloon
League.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Referring to the article in Tuesdays Star
entitled Sergeant Daley Speaks" I would
like to say through you to the public that
IT is true that Sergeant Daley was present
at the meeting there reported and that he
was welcomed with some enthusiasm, it
being his first appearance at meeting of
the Anti-saloon League, but your reporter
did not hear correctly In understanding Ser
geant Daley to refer to his work as po-
liceman as his crusade against the liquor
business and in understanding him to say
that the league gave him substantial sup
port, which might mean pay or it's equiv
alent from the Anti-salOon League. 1 am
sure The Star would not wiilfully miSrepre-
sent either Sergeant Daley or the Anti
saloon League, and trust Ii will gladly
make this correction. A less important
error is the statement that toward the
close of his remarks Sergeant Daley became
excited, and could scarcely be understood -
That he could scarcely be understood by
the reporter is probably quite true, but that
he became excited is without any founda-
ton.
1t is true, however, that the Anti-saloon
League did what it could for Sergeant
Daley when he was under charges, in the
way of appeals to the authorities and ex-
pressions of confidence to himself and that
the league greatly gratified at his be-
ing able to clear himself and maintain his
place on the pelice force. The Anti-saloon
would any policeman under like circum-
stances, for doing his duty In bringing to
punishment violators of the prohibitory
provisions of the liquor law, and demanded
that he should not suffer for his faithful
ness in this direction. Otherwise he was

"CIOture'-Why Use the WOrdf
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Can you inform us why the term "cloture'
is used by some newspaper writer's, and in
Congress?
1t is a foreign word and means the same
as our English word closure, both being de-
rived from the same root. The word clo-
sure is more agreeable to the ear of Eng
disappearing people, and every one. the I'M
learned as well as the learned, knows it's
meaning, while many do not understand
what cloture mems. Why incorporate into
our language foreign words not generally
understood, when we have words which
clearly express the idea that 1t is desired to
convey, and are understood by all and are
more euphonious?
We see a great deal in the papers about
the English language becoming the uni
versal language, and which 1T is rapidly do
ing in commerce the world over to the
great advantage of all concerned. The one
great hindrance is our absurd and incon-
sisIent photography, growing out OF the
fact that ours is a polygot language, made
up from several different languages, WITH
the attempt to retain the orthography OF
each. Every foreign word introduced or
nearly all, only aggravates the difhculty,
and for that reason, II no other, we should
strive to keep our language as pure and It's
photography as simple and UNIFORM as
possible If it were possible to add to our
alphabet enough characters SO that there
should be many characters or letters as
there are elementary sounds, 1t would soon
become the universal language of civilized
nations-at least in general literature and
correspondence. The present plan of giving
to one letter several different sounds is as
absurd as 1t would be to give child diff
ferent name for each day in the week. Be-
fore one could tell what name to use, he
must stop and ascertain what day 1t Isl;
and SO In our language, one must see ty
what letter a certain other one Is preceded
or followed before he can tell what sound
to give it, and that frequently necesSitates
the introduction of silent letters, which add
immensely to the difficulty of ready &C.
QUESTION Of the language.
Formerly this was insisted upon by the
professional and the learned, because the
photography of a word Is a key to it's root
or origin, and they could thus trace the
word and more readily ascertain it's mean
ing in the past, or in the language from
which 1t was derived; but, fortunately, this
class, as well as others, now see that words
are simply vehicles for conveying ideas
and that II is of infinitely more importance
to know what the word means now than
several hundred years ago, and to SO sim
plify its spelling as to enable all to know
how to pronounce 1t when printed or writ
ten, and to know at once how to spell 1t
when they hear 1t pronounced correctly.
For these reasons many of our foremost ed
