TO SIMPLIFY SPELLING

A society has been organized in
New York for the purpose of
urging the simplifcation Of Eng
lish spelling. The name Of the
association is the Simplified SPELL
ing Board, and an appeal will be
made to all persons who for educa-
tional or practical reasons wish to
mako English spelling easier to
acquire. The expense of the OF.
ganization will be borne by Mr.,
Andrew Carnegie, who has long
believed that English will become
the world-languags of the future
and make possible universal peace
The Simplified Spelling Board
proposes to expedite that process
of simplification in the spelling Of
words which has been going on in
England every since the invention
OF printing, notably in the omission
of silent and useless letters. NJ
extreme thee riss willIbe advocated,
nor will hs urged any violent al
teratiou in the appearance o.
familiar words.
The association will consist o.
thirty members, living In varioul
parts of the country. Some O.
them are authors Of wide reputa
tion; some are protested scholar
connected with leading Univer
stiles; some are distinguished edi
tcrs, and some are men promineR
i. the affairs of public and civil
life Of the country.

man, 10 being bounced energtically
for the nomination of the same

extracts on the Same line from
several newspapers, including the
Washington Star, Atlanta Journal,
the NewA and Courier Of Charles

itself presents the unlucky num-
Der of thirteen reasons why Mr..
Wilson'S the strongest possible
man for the honor. The last Of
these is that As be was born in Vir-
ginia and halls from New Jersey
his manhattan and election "would
be recognition of the South
which the South uobly deserves, "
and "his election world be the
everlasting pledge Of a country
united in fact"
