THE SPELLING REFORM
philadelphia Record)

Although the simplifed spelling
board, which is one of Andrew Carne-
gies pet projects, has been subjected
to great deal of criticism, there is no
one in the United States who can pro-
duce any evidence to show that is
operations are doing anybody any
harm. Three times previously has the
board issued a list of photographic
changes, and life has gone on just the
same. The fourth list changes the
spelling of 1000 words, and still the
world, with scarcely a look backward,
travels onward,
What an unheeding race of people
We are! Here is this simpliiied spell
ing board working like 40 furies to
improve the general condition of man
kind and his stenographer, and yet
all the reward that comes to it is
loud cry of derision Is it just is t
kindly to treat the well-intentioned
board this way?
The board itself asks the public to
be patient and not be too much inf1u-
enced by the odd appearance of the
old words in their new garb. Laugh
il the future, according to the board,
is to be 'laff,' chaos is to be "caos, y
gnat is to be nat knee is to be
"nee," touch is to be "tuch,' and hlow
is to be bio
The only thing that might be said
with the slightest propriety about the
changes is that they will be "blo"
to some stenografers who will laf at
the caos as they tuch the keys"
OF course nobody will take the la
bors of the board very seriously. 1t
would be just as reasonable to make
up an entirely new language and teach
it to Americans. The present system
of spelling is a growth of evolution.
1t was not the result of the delibera-
Some of the spelling is curious and CD
jectionable, but its reform will be a
very slow process
A mere announcement by the sim
plified spelling board will not move
Millions of people from their set hab-
its and what they have learned in the
schools. The reform might be accom-
plished by enlisting the support of all
schools and publishing houses in,
changing the spelling of ten words
each year. Something might be &C
complished in hundred years by that
method, but the ingenious announce
ments of the simplified spelling board,
which seems to take it for granted
that the world is waiting anxiously
for this seasons style in spelling, will
simply make the world "laf"

DANGERS TO THE EYESIGHT

(From the Boston Transcript

in his lecture at the Harvard Medica,
School, that it is a crime to have
pointed scissors about in any house
| hold in which there are children I'M
DIR six years of age. Children will
Invariably play with scissors; they
frequently fall on the points and
puncture the eye, and often the wound
while it will cause blindness. is too
small to be noticed by the mother.
Next in point of. danger to the eye
sight is the pounding of steel Oh
steel, which, throwing out silyers.
eventually destroys the sight. Ma
chinists and stone-cutters meet with
similar accidents, and now that the
public is paying for these injuries
through insurance, workmen, who are
subjected IT, such dangers, should be
compelled to wear glasses of some
sort to protect their eyes.
II have known of quarrymen going
ON strike because their employer tried
to force them to wear glasses. and ]
have seen a nuarryman who has lost
an eve through a premature explosion
of dynamite go back to the same WORK
and lose the other eye.
"Glaucoma, which occurs only IN
people over 40 years of age, may be
ranked as an accident, since il is in
moment of excitement or deep emotion
that person beeins to go blind. There
comes an instantaneous. agonizing
pain in the eyes, which is OF attended
to at once, will cause total blindness
within few days.
The danger signal, which warns
people that their eyes are becoming
seriously affected by overwork, diges-
tive or circulative disturbances, IS
seeing rainbow halo. This halo is
visible often when the person affected
strikes a match at night or looks at a
street light"

JAMES HAMILTON LEWIS
(From the Savannah Pressl

The election of the Hon. James Ham
liton Lewis as United States senator
from Illinois for the long term wound
up In way eminently satisfactory to
all Democrats. We do not know what
Col William J. Bryan did on his re-
cent tour when he addressed the Hi
nois legislature and emphasized the
Importance of having a Democratic
senator from that state Mr.. Lewis had
won the nomination in the Democratic
primary. If the election of senators
had been in the hands of the people,
Col. Bryan said, that the two members
from Illinois would be straight Demo
Gratis. The Secretary of State worked
his rabbit foot or magicians wand in
some way. Both the President and his
Prem were interested in bringing
about me election of James Hamilton
Lewis and now that much at last has
come to pass
Personally as well as politically the
selection Of Mr.. Lewis will be crafty
ing to Savannah and to Georgia. Like
Woodrow Wilson, James Hamilton
Lewis grew up in Augusta and studied
law in the Office of the late Frank H.
Miller, Esq. He was a self-made man
and after short while moved to Sa-
Vannah, where he continued his work
at the bar and subsequently moved .
the far West. He married a Georgia
woman in Screven county and paid an
nual visits to the state while his pa
rents lived in Augusta. In fact, he
has never lost touch with Georgia and
holds in grateful remembrance his
friends in Savannah and Augusta. This
is one of the noticeable things about
him, his loyalty to old friends and his
devotion to Georgia memories. Last
June Mr.. Lewis was a delegate from
Illinois to the Baltimore convention,
tied up, of course, with Instructions TO.
Clark. Several times he was called
upon to preside over the convention
and the coup de grace was given that
Tuesday morning when Illinois broke
its solid phalanx and went from Clark
o Woodrow Wilson. About that time A
significant smile passed over the feat
ures of James Hamilton Lewis, dele
gate-at-large from Chicago, and some
where in that fifty-four votes the All
gusta man had hand in bringing
about the nomination of an Augusta
boy. After Illinois, trooped Alabama,
and then came the deluge.
Nearly twenty years ago Mr.. Lewis
left Washington defeated for re-elac-
ton to congress from Seattle. His
speech as he babe farewell to the low
er house, as The Press has so often
said, was model Of good sense and
good taste. Now he returns to Wash
ington as United States senator from
Illinois, having changed his home -
Chicago, where for many years he was
corporation counsel, and where he
made real reputation as a lawyer,
careful and profound. Whether Col.
Bryan went to Chicago as a private
citizen or to render public service, his
mission has been successful and was
performed evidently with tact and
skill. .
