The New York board of superintend-
ents has issued formal instructions to
teachers in the high schools of that
city TO do all in their power to improve
the oral English of the pupils. It is
declared that the use by high school
popils of "t'row" for throw, ''toin" for
turn, foil for girl, "erster' for oyster,
"lawr" for law, "thoyd" for third, and
other similar expressions no longer
will be tolerated. If, as seems to be
implied, it prevails at the present
time, the fact would seem to indicate
not only a lack of diligence on the part
of the teachers of the grade schools as
well as the high schools, but also
slovenly pronunciation on the part of
some of the teachers themselves.
Bright pupils usually initiate the pro-
nunciation of their teachers. Mil
waukeeans are aware from observa-
ton of this tendency Children be-
longing to homes where foreign Ian
guage was habitually employed have
grown up with a good idiomatic Eng
lish because they initiated the speech
of their teachers in the public schools

Is the onslaught on systematized
arson having deterrent effect? The
fire loss in the United States and Can
ada was $20,193,25O for January, 1918,
compared with $35,653, $50 in the cor
responding January, 1911. But eli
matte conditions are to be taken into
account, and these in the first month
of the present year were favorable to
a reduction in the fire loss. January,
1879 was marked by the most pro-
tracted period of extremely cold wealth,
er which has occurred since the es-
adjustment of the weather bureau,
and when the mercury is very low fire
departments work at great disad-
vantage. In January, 1912, there were
$50 fires causing loss of $4,000 or
over, and in January, 1913, only 365.
The largest fire of January, 1918, was
that which destroyed the Calgary meat
packing plant in Alberta, Canada.
