Somehow the impression mas gone
abroad that Boston has invented a
new slang word, and that the same is
"fudgy," says the Boston Post. Even
the usually well informed New York
Herald remarks that from the rare
fled air of Boston a new bit of slang
has been evolved, poor, anemic word,
'fudgy,' used to indicate that every
thing is as it should be. 1t will doubt
less prove a convenient term in Bos-
ton, a city in which a vast number
o. people look upon them with com
placence and declare that the town
could not be improved upon. But it
will never take root in a city like
ours, which is always being reformed
and uplifted and rebuilt and investi-
gated" The Herald and all other
newspapers that mention the matter
are barking up the wrong tree.
''Fudgy' is not Boston slang and never
will be- 1t is unheard, save perhaps
from the lips of a few noodles who
are said to have enriched their dane
ing vocabulary with the word. But
they amount to nothing; they can not
make slang. Slang comes from other
and ADLER quarters.
