RAvAeEs OF DIALECT

There is a very amusing satire in Lit
tells of May is. on the increasing use OF
dialect and its probable results, by Peveri
Jollife who, after long sojourn within
the Arctic circle, finds dialect triumphant
upon his return to civilization, and the
courts, legislatures, business men, preach
ers, society generally In perfect de-
bauch Of dialect. He wrestled hopelessly
with a babel Of jargon,. a mixture Of Yid-
dish English. Japo-A American, Scottish,
Irish and other hyphenations.- So demon
alizing had the substitution of dialect for
undefiled English become, that a few
faithful ones had organized an anti-dia-
lect club to fight the ravages Of the per-
vading linguistic folly altho those in au-
thority had sanctioned the ridiculous glib
ber1sh. The ants charged the gibberish
upon irresponsible novelists, = and they
were not far wrong.
It was said some years ago that dialect
writing was passing away. The public
was weary of it. On the contrary, there
are more dialect stories and novels writ
ten than heretofore. 1t is likely. however.
that the public is not permanently at
tached to dialect. alt1o the professor of

dwell rather upon the men who made his

personality Of the latter, and such writing
involves the mention Of many odds and
ends of college life at Oxford. He begins
with All Souls college and goes right thru

can boast of BIa ckstone and TIeber Jer-

other notables. Blackstone's Commenta-

men as John Evelyn, Wycliffe, Robert
