What looks like an awakening is the effort now well under way through the country in behalf of cleaner language That it has a wide field for operation no one can deny and all must unite on the opinion that it is possible of an untold amount of good, not only to those who cannot talk without swearing, but relief to the public, who, by force of circumstances, are brought into contact with the careless habit There should be unit ed effort in making the movement a success. It is being attacked from two directions with a determination which is meeting with an enthusias- tic response.
 The Holy Name societies are mak- ing excellent headway and enrolling large member ships earnestly devoted to a successful crusade. They are making their appeal to the individual for betterment of conditions. From another direction, the Clean Language league, a national organization, of which Dr. T. II. Russell is the organ izer is working not only by individual effort but to compel the enforcement of the swearing ordinances of the various American cities. This aims at not only reaching those who can be induced to join in the movement, but also those who remain outside and persist in polluting their conver- sations, wherever they may be, with vile talk. There is a limitless amount of benefit which can result from this double barrelled attack which, de- serves encouragement and support.
