How the days were kind to us, how the

That the great wise mother breathes

NauRht we cared when underfoot

And we paused near rock and fern

Yesterday we saw the dawn. rosy-fin-

Turn TO gold the russell leaves, light

English Horribly Misspoke"

Conversation Is the finest of the
arts. You do not believe this. but 1t
Is nevertheless true.
The first thing We are taught 10 to
learn to talk. And We continue talk
ing, more or less insanely and mar
tistically, all our lives. We are the
talking animal. Talking is our prin-
cirle occupation and diversion from
the cradle to the grave.
But how many really good takers
do you know?
That question, however. Is unfair.
until we determine what good tall"
is. There is much misconception on
the subject.
We have heard educated men Of
foreign birth talking with the precis-
ion and Formally OF an encyclopedia,
and we have complimented them on
their excellent English" But this
English was not excellent; for II was
bad conversation.
The man whose words sound as II
they came right out OF the unabridged

His talk Ia stilted and unnatural. II

family and bad grammar. The bookish
talk is correct" but not idiomatic;
the street urchin's is idiomatic, but
incorrect.
There Ia a halfway style some.
where between these two extremes.
IL succeeds somehow in conveying
ideas from one mind to another, sim
ply and directly, without vulgarity or
formality. II uses mostly the plain
Anglo Saxon words learned In child
hood, with only such longer or more
unusual words as are needed to ex-
press complex thoughts. The vocabu-
larry may be rich and varied, but II Is
not ponderous. II Is as natural as the
speech of intelligent children, though
broader In scope.
This conversational style is found
at It's best among women. For wo-
men, In general. talk as easily and
naturally as birds sing; and with edu-
cation and culture they retain this es-
sential ease and naturalness better

MoRsE's PRISON PHILOSOPHY,

c. W. Morse's experience In prepar'
ing a typewriter catalogue OF the At
lanta prison library has impressed
him with the limitations Of his knowl
edge. He is reported as saying, 81
never knew before how little / knew
how little l could do any one thine
we'll"
In the confession Of ignorance lies
the beginning of wisdom. But the con
victed banker is unduly self-deprecia
tory. No one understands better than
he does the special branches oil
knowledge for which he has a reputa
ton. He is merely out OF his mental
environment So a college professor
who knew all about Sanskrit or politi
cal economy would feel sense OF
hopeless incapacity II called on to float
steamship merger.
On the other hand. the special train
ing of which the banker confesses his
lack would probably have kept the
world in ignorance OF his ability In
finance II Is by a general grasp OF
principles more than by knowledge
OF minor details that business success
Is won.
Yet Mr. Morse's prison philosophy
is interesting as evidencing his discov'
cry that there are other fields OF hui
man interest besides company-promo-
ton or bank-manipulation. Not all
the art OF life Is comprised In money
making, and there are men on small
salaries-no doubt they were clerks In
his employ in the time of his pros
perity-who have found surer clue to
happiness than he possessed. His
prison term has had its compensations
