GOOD ENGLISH.
Its Importance In Letter-Writing and
Ordinary Conversation.

It's importance III I4cIttf-W flttHx anu
Ordinary Conversation.
All children should be carefully in
structed In he art OF letter-wrtting
snd should be encouraged to write to
parents at regular intervals when away
from home, says he Philadelphia Ledger
An instance is recalled, aud sucu In
stances ars not inirequent, where daugh
ter who married anu left her Old home Ia
her early womanhood wrote to her parents
every week for atty yesrs.
In too many families the tie Is broken
when chi dren depart, or Is not strength
ened by faithful and systematic CORE
spondence. The strongest family sffec-
ton lie subjected to a severe test when
brothers aud sisters separate and very
rarely or never renew the old family life
by freq rent visits or communication by
letter.
Owing to cheap postage and ease of
com nunicattpa. the arrival OF letter Is
| not such an important event as 1t Was
when postage was costly and matt transit
was slow. In former days letters from
absent friends were warmly welcomed

Children should be encouraged to write
letters, because the habit Is educstive II
practice under the direction OF intel
ligent parents. Nothing reveals ones
knowledge of the language more GER
! tsinly than letter or other written effort,
Our forms Of speech are acquired chiefly
10 the family, aud not in the SCHOOLS
| The accuracy OF ones written and spoken
! language depends upon parents, rather
than upon teachers.
An instructor at teachers institute In
( New England, in answering rhe query,
Nv herein do the public schools fail to
secure the results properly expected OF
them2" replied that tue faults OF the pub
tic schools lie in the parents, the teachers,
and, lastly, In the school system.
| IL is true that parents are often prima-
/ rily responsible for defects in the educa-
tion OF the young which are thong iesssy
charged to the schools. Unless school
training is supplemented by good home
| instruction the best academic teaching
| will be to great extent wasted.
Ore Ia frequently surprised by the in.
excusabie lapses in grammar found In
/ letters, and the atroeious speech over
heard casually in he streets and wherever
the public coogregste. The great ma
| jority have had the advantages OF good
schools, particularly Ia the cities, but
| very many betrsy deplorsbie carelessnesa
| in the use OF English.
| This Is due 10 most instances to the in
difference of parents who likewise have
had access to excellent schools. the New
| England professor was right in attriout'
| ing the faulty education Of children pri-
I marily to psreuts.
/ Few observe the nice distinctions OF
language in ordinary conversations
I though all should aim 10 do so. The re-
| gre tn BILE thing Is that so many persons
err unpardonabiy In such matters.
The correction lies In the attention OF
parents to tue every day speech of their
children and particularly in the DISPOSE.
J tion OF parents to encourage their chil-
/ dren to write correct II not graceful Eng
l fish.
