That was the declaration of DR..

"The Indian is man of lofty
ideals; he is heroic in temperament
and ineffably tragic in thought To-
day the sublime thought in the Indian
mind seems to be that although he is
doomed to determination, yet will he
die undaunted."

CHINESE AN IDEAL LANGUAGE
Sir William Ramsay Says Our Ances
tors Should Have Adopted
Il Years Ago.

London. Sir William Ramsay.
speaking at st. Bride institute recently
on spelling reform, said it was a pity
that we had not from the beginning
adopted the Chinese system of writ.
ing instead of our own. The Chinese
did not spell; they used symbols
which conveyed ideas. The Chinese
language had the great advantage that
1t could be read much quicker than
any spelled language. 1t went straight
from the symbol to the brain as an
idea.
Although he would not support the
adoption of new alphabet on the
lines of the Chinese system. he felt
that it was pity that 5000 or 1000
years ago our ancestors did not adopt
the Chinese system.
