SMITH FUNERAL
This AFTERNOON

The funeral of Memo d. Smith was
held this afternoon from the Metho-
dist church, Rev. p. II. Willis, officist-
ing. and was largely attended. A
choir composed of Mrs. A. d. Dern,
organist, Mrs. j. Wilson, Miss Mae
Morrison, C. E. Robins and Rev. P.
II. Willis, rendered music appropriate
to the occasion.
The floral offerings were many and
appropriate and expressive of that
esteem and affection IN which the de-
ceased was held.
The contribution of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen was that of a broken wheel,
symbolizing the break in the unity OF
home and conveying further that like
the beautiful blooming flowers the
soul of the departed brother, comrade
and friend had taken its flight into
the space where eternal summer and
the garden of flowers ever prevails.
A beautiful pillow marked Men
20" represented the heart offering OF
a dear friend and in its evidence
presented the hallowed sacred feel
ing stronger and deeper than any sob
or emotion carrying with il the un-
dying fidelity that makes life beauti-
full.
Another offering by c. Rollins and
wife was a spray or roses and head
rest of flowers; Frances and Helen
Edwards, wreath of carnations; Mr..
and Mrs. Brake, Denver, Colorado,
broken cross; Mr.. and Mrs. c. l.. To-
bin, wreath of roses; /. A. Lowell,
spray of roses.
After the service the remains were
escorted to the new cemetery by a
large number of friends, with the fol-
lowing gentlemen acting as pail
bearers: l. c. Rollins, Nels Sorenson,
c. J. Reynolds, Al McCruden, Lee
Case, and A. e. Nickols.
Memo ID. passed away Saturday
night at the Western Pacific hospital
at Portola, following an operation for
appendicitis. Deceased Memo Smith
was born on February IA, 1891, thus
allotting him but a quarter of CEN
tury of life. BY occupation he was
locomotive fireman, possessing the
trust and confidence of his fellows.
In all essentials he was young man
of sound habits, of splendid and no
BILE character and in the full spirit
and good purpose of life until those
heartbreaking partings, those seem
ing everlasting farewells and those
sighs caused by dreaded death envel-
oped him for time without end.

Ham and Eggs.

There are still few bold souls
who have the courage to praise
ham and eggs. The cook books
have left them out of their recipes.
and the women's publications use
up most of their space telling bout
new-fangled dishes. But there
are still some folks in the land who
refuse to be led astray by the
modernists. Listen to this from
a contributor:
"You msy talk all you please
about your salads and desserts and
especially prepared meats, but
give me dish of ham and eggs,
Not the tough, over-salted meat
that too often passes for ham, but
the real, genuine, Juicy, rightly
cured product of the pig, fanked
by fresh eggs, cooked delicately,
the golden yolks filmed over with
the whites, and l pass it up in
consideration and estees to no
other culinary combination"
There's poetry for you, if you
please, and solid wisdom born OF
long experience. There's picture
worthy of frame of gold! Talk
about your "fancy dishes," served
in bouquet of flowers, with trellis
work about them, and vines run
ming around the edges of the plat
ter. Incompara ble is all else to
plate of ham and eggs!-Jackson

University Weekly Letter.
Why should Speech be Gram
rnatical1y Spoken.

1t is repeatedly stated that the
speech of the supposedly educated
people to-day is not nearly SO free
from gram matical errors as was the
speech of the educated a genera
ton ago. There is truth in the
statement. The explanation lies
chiefly in two conditions. In the
first place, the democratic move
ment in education has resulted in
turning out as college graduates
much larger proportion of men and
women who come from the homes
of the relatively illiterate. Their
habits of speech have been fixed
by their home associations. Care.
full correction Of grammatical er-
rors on the part of the teachers will
not suffice 10 many cases, to over
come these fixed ha abits. Moreover,
school associates, in larger proper
ton than ever before, from gram
mar grades through college, use the
same ungram matical form, and thus
make an influence tending to over
come the instruction of the class
room.
In the secoud place, the scien-
tific study of language has reveal
ed the fact that language itself is
democratic. That is to say, usage,
not authority as found in gram
mars and dictionaries, has CONTROL
ed the developement of speech
forms. So teachers of to-day,
with this view of language in the
background of their minds, have
unconsciously taken more leni-
ent attitude towards deviHtions
from best usage, and are not so
strict and earnest as they once were
in seeking to overcome habits of
ungrammatical speech.
A young man, college gradu-
ate, now teaching in one of our
best high schools, tells me that be

Bishop, Professor of English Ian.
guage and Literature.
The city itemizer., 1916-03-09

considers grammatical errors as of
no consequence. He justifies
himself in this heresy by assert
ing that language serves its en-
tire purpose in expressing thought.
Speech abounding in grammatical
error, be says, is quite as easily and
clearly understood as is the Ian
guage that is grammatioally fault
less. The particular contention of
this young man, considered apart,
is not so very far from true. Ad-
mitting this much, it is still the
business of all teachers to seek to
correct bad grammar. In limiting
the function of language to mere
conveyance of sense, this young
man revealed very narrow view of
the service of speech, as we'll as
very inadequate conception of the
values of life. Our speech has de-
veloped into the fuer instrument
1t is through instincts far more
profound and complex than the
sense for the merely practical.
These instincts, the unlettered have
shared; they have had in their de
gree the sense for logical, for
eautiful, and for emotional ex-
preston, But it is particularly true
that language, the most funda-
mental of social institutions has
been enriched and strengthened
and made beautiful by the conscien.
tious feelings for all these ends Oh
the part of the educated-the teach
ers and the writer's of our history.
tits our obligation, as it was theirs,
to make the best usage prevail
But from the practical stand
point attention to correct speech is
quite worth while. The young
man who is making bis way with
his college education and resource,
is discounted if his speech abounds
in grammatical errors. So the
neck tie and collar are of little ser
vice as clothing. Yet, in most cir
cles, one who left them off as su
perhuous, would appear crank or
greenhorn. Quite truly, soil
ed collar and a greasy neck tie
would not commend acquaintance.
