Dear children | never studied any
OF your grammars; and therefore know
nothing whatever about ''diagraming
a sentence as you call it. When | went
to school We used Smiths Grammar
and Bullion Grammar, pretty good
old books as We then thought. But the
point desire to call your attention to
Is this: when you ale down ia town
any time either on the streets. in the
offices, banks or stores. stop and listen
at some OF our most prominent men and
observe how they mind their gram
mar in IN every day converse
to-, See how they use the words writ
ten, taken. saw and seen, | Venture to
siv that you will hear them say: that
they have never seen such weather be
iOre;' that they are not very well:
that they taken such a cold yesterday
ask tn m II such and such u man is IN
town, and they will say, "oh, yes,
seen him u little while ago." then ask
them when they heard IRON such and
such a one, and they will be more than
apt to say yes, he written Inc u letter
last week"
Now children. you who are in gram
mar, find out, il you do not already
know, how the words saw. seen written
aud taken should be used, then observe
cloeely how people, as u general thing
use these wor Is how many mistake,
you have noticed prominent person,
make in using them; and then report
your observations in the Herald and
Tribune, mentioning no names of course
just give facts and circumstances. Y
