ENGLISH LANGUAGE
In FAR OFF INDIA

There is no likelihood that English will
become the language Of The masses In
India. nor Of any very considerable por-
ton OF tho population. Nevertheless, ita
status as a literary language Of the educ
Gated is not without ita Importance. For
ono thing II keeps these classes I'm touch
with European public opinion. and while
Il arousea in them political aspirations, II
also makes them feel wherein their own
culture and civilization arc defective.
Thus it Is the native leaders Of inion
who are most strenuous In their advo-
cacy Of reform IN education, In their
demand for scientific training
English is tho language Of conscious
reasoning. Of reflected thought. IN India.
Though creative literary expression has
been attempted IN English by Indian writ
ers. they have achieved only n moderate
amount Of success.-Raul s. Reinsch, in

the matter Messrs. Reeves, Mousley.
Madden and Welsh. managers of last

pointed a committee to decide on
League membership but the committee
baked after a thorough discussion of
the subject and announced that IL could
not decide the question until some
sort of a schedule could be worked
out. This will be done one day this
week Later the president OF the
League will announce whether the
League will be a five or a. six cluu
organization.
As but two clubs can be admitted
i'm case a six club organization is de-
termined upon, the selections will likely
be made from the Brownson, Y. NJ c,

is practically certain that Brownson
