HEADLINE ENGLISH.
From Worlds o


Apropos of Thomas Eardy's indict-
ment OF American headlines for having
ruined English literature, a writer
says:
Headline English. bars, bans. hits,
fiays, halts, wires, bolts, Gusts and does
many other like brief and breezy feats.
but 1t does them In season and out of
season, dramatically or ungramma-
tically. Headline English Ia a Iangu-
age OF little words which have CON
sented to be tortured into availability
FOR hundreds Of situations for which
they are not intended. 1t has only ore
tense; 1t fiouts all rules, and ignores all
propositions, articles and adVcrbs. HI
headline writer is a person whose life
study and labor is to squeeze as much
or a narrative as possible into the cx-
act number Of characters that the
width of a column requires. Other
wise, no doubt, a worthy member OF
society, the headline writer is by pro-
fession an assassin of English, an an
archtst and a corruptor OF morals. Yet
his work Is more widely read than that
or any other writer. 1t is printed in
bold face type in the most prominent
positions. 1t confronts us at the break
fast table,: 1t calls to US across the
street car; 1t stares UP at us impud-
emily from the very gutter into which
II a fallen. Few a hope to escape
entirely the baneful effects of long and
constant familiarity to which we are
condemned with its mutilated. twisted
and ugly features.
The headline, as we know il in this
country, is an influence adverse to good
writing.

women were arrested in Odessa for
having been guilty of this offense
They had all been dining together in

They were condemned to short terms
Of Imprisonment, and the sentences
we're confirmed on appeal. The gen
