...~.U r.o suler sign oil the true
gentleman or lady among educated
people than a proper use OF language
in conversation. One can be modest
or chaste, or otherwise, in their use
OF language, as well as in actions. To
be Il good conversationalist is rare
accomplishment, but to have less to
say and to say that little in good, pure
language is Il much greater accom-
plislment; and yet even this is with
in the reach OF all IN these days Of SUI
perior educational advantages.
There are scores OF people who can
hardly talk at all without swearing,
or using slang, or senseless by-worls,
all OF which are silly to say the least OF
it, and some think it is even wicked.
One cannot go up and down Main
street without getting into the poi
sonous fumes Of tobacco and beer and
piVi"hlty anu olaiS. w Z diC iCCtiS-
toned to pass it by unnoticed, and
are inclined to excuse it because these
poor men don't know any better, but
if it is right for men, is it not RICH t
for women? You can't swear and be
pure ard true as you ought to be, you
can't use slang and be as modest and
innocent as your dearest friends wish
you to be. Slang used by a high
school boy or girl is inexcusable, while
slang used by teacher in any depart
ment is intoelable and should at once
relegate that teacher to the number
of the unemployed. Pure English is
chaste and beautiful, and to mangle
and torture il and dress it up in false
colors is to be untrue to a great trust
and displays q supposed smartness
which is in reality the veriest stupid
ity, which, instead OF provoking mirth
should call forth pity from those who
desire to be recognized as ladies and
gentlemen.

1t is false humility to indulge the
idea that we are too Insignificant to be
influencing others; day by day, what
ever may be the rules and doctrines
that proceed from our lips, our lives
constitute the law obeyed by those
around. Consciously or UNCONSCIOUS
ly, though our positions may not seem
exalted enough to command observa-
ton, somebody with whom we are
brought into contact is feeling the
force OF our influence, and either con-
tracing injury or being surely lifted
upward.
