Why They Can't Spell,

1t is said that spelling correctly is
q lost art in the city schools, where
Sc much time is given to fall festi-
walls, Thanksgiving fetes, Christmas
entertainments, Washington birth
day celebrations, spring festivals,
May day and Decoration day rites.
The children + kept so busy learn
ing poems and songs for these occa-
sions and the teachers are so busy
hunting up proper material that
somehow there is but little time for
teaching such an ordinary study as
spelling. That is the reason a high
school boy spelled agency "ageshun-
cy" recently. Another high school
boy, asked to define and illustrate
