 SUMMER RESORT
Congressman Hayden h. tercedes in Favor of Pine
 air Playground, Sixty
 Miles East of Gem City Good Road Partly Built

Acting upon the request of Con sressman Carl Hayden. John Curry, assistant forester in charge of graz ing. with headquarters at Alhu- queruue, and l.. F. Kneipp, assistant forester in the forestry office at Washington, D. C., who Is also m charge of grazing, appeared before tke Commercial club yesterday, to discuss the matter of completing the read to the Pineair resort in the vicinity of the Reavis ranch and ap- proximately sixty miles east of Mesa. The gentlemen stated that ten per cent of the funds received from the sale of grazing permits on ranges went toward road building Iunu, and that upon the earnest soilclta- ton of Congressman Hayden they had called to investigate the Plnealr proposition. They explained that the fund for this year had been appro- pliated. but that the Plnealr road would be placed on the list and that II would certainly receive consider ation early next year. However, II developed at the meeting that the gentlemen were laboring under the impression that the proposition was for the accommodations of few ranchers isolated in the hills, and that it was not for the beneflt oi an entire community. After they were advised of the great advantage that it would be to the Salt River valley, they were of the opinion that they should make a trip of inspection over the road, which they started to do yesterday. but had only progressed as far as Goldfeld when their car broke down, necessitating new start l this morning.
 The need of q summer resort that can be reached within two hours by auto and where absolute quiet anu | rest can be enjoyed. where the ther- | mometer never goes above the S' degree mark. does not need to be ] explained here. It would be the
 means Of keeping thousands of dol
 lars in the valley that otherwise goes | 10 the coast resorts and moreover II 1 would permit thousands of people te | enjoy a day or two of real cool com fcrt, and at the same time not neg lect their business for any grea' length of time. The universal use | of the automobile is one more grea argument for the Pineair resort.

STOOD FOR ANCIENT SPELLING
Dean Swift About the First to Thun.
der Against "Reforms" in
English Language.

In the eighteenth century we find
Jonathan Swift, whose mastery of
prose is one of our delights, writing as
the very first article which appeared
over his acknowledged name "a Pro-
posal for Correcting, Improving and
Ascertaining the English Tongue" He
lamented that the English tongue was
becoming debased, but he attributed
the cause, in part, to the liberties
which Dryden and the other poets of
the Restoration had taken in shorten
ing their syllables by emitting those
very els which our spelling reformers
would eliminate.
These gentlemen" wrote Swift, al
though they could not be insensible
how much our language was already
overstocked with monosyllables, yet
to save time and pains, introduced
that barbarous custom of abbreviating
words to fit them to the measure Of
their verses 80 that most of the books
we see nowadays are full of those
mangiings and authorizations" Dis
turbd." Arebuk'd," are among the
words he finds especially unpleasant.
Swift was further annoyed at a fool
4Sh opinion. advanced of late years,
that we ought to spen exactly as ives
speak; which, besides the obvious in
convenience of utterly destroying our
etymology, would be thing we
should never see an end Of" Also he
noted with impatience IN 1712: eft is
sometimes a difficult matter to read
modern books and pamphlets; where
the words are so curtailed and varied
from their original spelling, that who
ever has been used to plain English
win hardly know them by sight" How
many Of our new" controversies were
waged centuries agol
