URGES ADOPTION OF
 SIMPL|FIED SPELLING
PROF. DAYTON OF INDIANApO. LIS ADDRESSES STATE NOR
 NAL STUDENTS.

Uurging the adoption of the 12 se- lected words, if not the entire list of 300, Prof. George H. Danton, of the department of German in Butler Col lege, Indianapolis, representing the Simplified Spelling Board of New
 York City, addressed the students of the State Normal School here this morning. Following his addresses he also held conference with the presidents of the three local institu- tons and secured their promise to consider the matter of adopting sim phhed spelling in the colleges.
 MT. Danton emphasized the econom- lc value of the new system of spell ing, pointing to the saving in space. paper, composition and time of learn ing to spell by both children and for elgners. Three objections to the sys- tenn are urged, he said; first, that it destroys etymology; second, the eco homie loss of books already printed, and, third, the sentimental value of the old spelling. As to the first ob- pection, Mir. Danton declared that simplified spelling is really an aid to etymology, but even if it were not, spelling should be taught to children before etymology is reached, and therefore would not interfere. As to the second objection, he said it was expected that the spelling should be gradually adopted, and the senti- mental objection, he thought hardly worthy of consideration.
 Among the 12 words which Mr. Danton said have been adopted by great many educational institutions, societies, newspapers and magazines, are program, catalog, thru, tho, thoro, dialog, ar
