DRIVE ON THE WORD
"AIN'T" WINS OUT
School Riddles Now Shun It as
Though It Was a Bad
Swear Word.
BUT OTHERS JUST AS BAD
By A. R. GROH.

ITS not my fault if you can't"
Aren't you going home YETI"
They haven't been here"
These three sentences heard the
other day on school playground.
They came from the lips OF children
10 to Is years old.
Don't they sound sort of queer?
You having answered in the affirma-
tive, l ask "why?' And, having asked
you why" ! answer, Because the
word amt does not appear in them"
Ten years ago school children
would have said, 1T amt my fault"
Amt you going homer" "They amt
been here"
Just about ten years ago teachers
and parents began the great drive on
the word "ain't." They attacked it,
horse, foot and dragons.
Declared An Outlaw.
The word "aint" was declared an
outlaw, thief of good form, a muir
derer of the kings English. A price
was set upon his head. He was at
tackled in the school room and in the
home. Wherever he showed his face
a teacher or parent, cousin or an
aunt was there to swat him. Don't
say amt Johnny" "You mustn't say
amt Mary" These were the battle
cries.
Johnny and Mary soon came to re-
gard "ain't" as terrible thing, only
a shade better than bad words"
Clay modelling might be taught in
the kindergarten and rhetoric and
lit'ature in the eighth grade but there
was one thing taught alike in all
grades. That was don'tsayain't.'
And so poor little "ain't" has been
driven from the vocabulary OF the ris-
ing generation, Listen for it your
self among the school children OF
Omaha. You don't hear it. Among
the well-educated grownups it still
fourishes. But not among the young
sters.
Ode to the Dead.
Great ''ain't' is dead.
Amt that a shame?
Isn't that u shame? we should say
IT amt or, rather, isn't proper to say 'ain't,"
For ''ain't' is outlawed, dead, defunct
BY edict Of the schools.

| Companion OF our early youth
And manhood's pleasant comrade.

He's dead. Let us not weep.
Peace TO his four good letters
Peace also to his apostrophe.
But look you, good people, loyal
friends of amt" Even in his defeat
he is victorious. For while teachers
have been busy, stamping him out of
existence, other weeds have sprung
up in the garden of English.
Teachers tell me that slang is be-
coming serious menace, in compari-
son with which "ain't" was as harm
less as a babe. A teacher told me
that one of her pupils related an incl
dent which happened at home. The
boy remarked at the table, This is a
peach of an apple pie"
Cut out that slang, son." his ia
ther ordered.
Whereat his mother laughed and
said to his father:
Your English is just as bum as
Williams"
Then they all laughed and declared
that that was certainly going some

Resemblance of Omaha Women.
March s

GeSemDlanceS OF Omdna women.
If you had a double or even a
near DOUBLE" how should you feel?
1t might make you sad or it might
make you glad. These mysterious
resembiances are frequent and unac-
countable. Every new friend who
meets you sees in you likeness to
some one he has met before. Some
times the mention of resemblance
may be considered a compliment,
but never more so than in the case
OF two handsome and prominent
Omaha women, who are often mis-
taken for each other.
Mrs. Edward NJ. Syfert, president
of the Omaha Woman's club, and
Mrs. William Sears Poppleton, are
the two. Each is tall and erect, care
fully tailored and carefully groomed.
Each has a face full Of expression,
with luminous eyes. Dark hair
threaded with strands Of gray, which
so many younger women have IN
this century, crowns the head OF
each. Both are intelligent and ener-
getic women. Mrs. Syferts regime
IS marked by more system and con-
structive work than the Omaha Wo-
mans club has perhaps ever had.
Her meetings are conducted in per-
feet order and with business-like
manner, which brooks none OF the
confusion which is usually attributed
to women's meetings.
Mrs. Poppleton is one OF the wit
test and most charming women IN
Omahas social circles. When a dis
tinguished visitor to Omaha is enter
tanned it is Mrs. Poppletor who has
the seat next to the guest OF honor,
for as a conversationalist she is de-
light to ali who know her. The story
OF one young eastern man who came
10 Omaha last fall on mission, met
Mrs. Poppleton and begged off from
all engagements in order to bask Tor
a time in her smile has been dupli-
Gated more than once, At recent
concert an old acquaintance OF the.
two. who had seen neither for some
time. hesitated and studied before
she decided that Mrs. Syfert was not
Mrs. Poppleton.
Two other Omaha women whose
resemblance has been commented up.
on are Mrs. George H. Payne and
Mrs. X. R. ]. Edholm.
