SPELLING TOO HARD.

May Be Dropped as a Requirement for
Entering Northwestern University.
Chicago, Feb. 14.-The faculty of North
western university is considering aboli-
ton Of spelling as a requirement for en-
trance. 1t is said the failure of a large
number each year to pass in spelling
brings the institution into unpleasant no
toriety. 1t is also said spelling as taught
in the university does not necessarily
make good spoilers, and the other member
of the faculty now point as proof of this
assertion to a notice posted by Professor
j. Scott Clark yesterday on the university
bulletin board.
Professor Clark's notice was to the stu
dents in the debating classes, and an
nounced the subject for the next discus
sion. In it occurred the word COVER
ment' and the word monopoly
The question for the abolition of the test
will come before the faculty at its meet
ing next Tuesday, and there is consid-
cradle interest as to what argument the
professor of English Will put forth tc e.
tain the study of spelling in the curri-
culum.
