and now used by several important pub
ncauonS. The response to this request
was very cordial Hundreds of sigma
lures were received pledg1ng the writers
to use these simpler forms in their per-
sOnal correspondence. The members of
the SlmplIfied spelling board believe that
the time is now ripe for forward move
ment They have learned the nature and
the strength of the opposition to be over
come They Will not advocate change
merely for the sake Of change They do
not intend to urge any violent alteration
IN the appearance of familiar words.
They viii not advance any extreme theO-
ries- They will not expect to accomplish
their task IN day or IN year. They
are willing to make haste slowly, I'm the
expectation of overcoming by degrees the
prejudice existing in favor of the present
cumbersome photography. They wish in
brief, to expedite that proportion of con-
SerVatiVeS. ever since the invention of
printing, notably in the omission of silent
and useless letters. Not so long ago. al
was musick. In the last few years tech
mic has been accepted in the place of
technique, program has been substituting
itself for programme catalOg for Cata-
lougue and tho for though These shorter
forms are already becoming familiar;
they may not as yet be approved by the
majority, but they are no longer strange
in the eyes of the average reader. and
they are found in use in books by authors
OF repute and in periodicals of standing.
The simplified spelling board will not
tons by omission, but it proposes also to
arouse a wider public interest in the gen
eral question of English photography
There is a real need of organized effort
to make English a better instrument for
the hundreds of millions who will have
to use our language before the end of
the twentieth century. Although Eng
lish is spreading more rapidly than any
other tongue, it has the most illogical
spelling Of any one of the more important
modern languages
The board intends to urge individuals
everywhere to exercise the privilege OF
simplification, and to encourage other
organizations which are working toward
the same end or have shown an interest
in the cause
The immediate activities of the simpli-
fled spelling board will be directed by an
executive committee chosen from the
members residing in New York An office
will be opened in New York to serve as
headquarters for the work; and from this
office the campaign of education will be
conducted by a competent staff. Local
societies will be organized wherever a
grOup OF willing workers can be gathered
together. Comprehensive plans are being
mapped out, which will take years for
their full accomplishment.

obstacle to its speedy adoption is to be

a foreign language under a teacher
must have a very good knowledge of
his own language in order to help
him to understand the principles of
grammar and of construction which
govern the foreign language. It here

An addition of s., 225, 900 to the au-

banks, with aggregate capital of S775,-

Judge MarIoneaux's Views.

Judge Thomas Marioneaux of Pow
ers & Marioneaux said
Children have today all they can
assimilate III their studies and time
put in on foreign languages would in
my opinion be utterly wasted. To
study a language by means of a
teacher requires q great deal of study.
An hour a day in practice and the
same time in good. hard study would
bring only meager results. Less time
than this would bring practically no
results, as the student would never
master it. and anything short of mas
terry of a language is of little or no
value.
Indeed, there is no study one could
II me in which little knowledge
would be Of as little value as the
study of a foreign language. The
ability to figure a little is better than
