EO!ia dependency are divided into two
Eredt classes. the inner and the outer
Nlongols. These tribes had submitted

This department besides being spe-

in new alphabet adapted to meet the
modern demands of scientific manage
ment. The Inventor Is Professor Fred
Newton Scott, of the University Of
Michigan.
The alphabet, which is said to have
the approval OF type manufacturers
and typewriter houses is intended to
reduce the modern English ALPHABET
by nine characters and do away with
combinations which. Professor Scott
declares. are cumbersome. wastefnl and
complicated, and do not express clear

writer.
The elements of the alphabet that
