NEVER WASTEFUL IN SPEECH
One Thing at Least in Which the
American People Are Econom-
icaI to Degree.

The country as a whole has lost the
chang" of speaking English. Some
people proudly state that America is
no longer British colony, that she is
creating a language of her own, and,
to prove their independence they
make practice of incorporating into
our speech sounds without definite
edges, sounds trailing clouds of NUT
tered murmurs, sounds of such ele-
mental simplicity that they resemble
grunts, taken over from the speech OF
persons who have come to us from all
Notwithstanding countries of the
world. And, in their love of equality
and fraternity, these people refuse to
exceed the speech of those whose
simple needs are satisfied with fru-
gal vocabulary; in this way they have
succeeded in cutting down their own
.ycoabullstie rations to the famine
point. Lavish, generous, wasteful in
other matters, the country has learned
to economic In sentence and syllable,
till it has reached a genuinely demo-
cratic simplicity of speech.-Henry
Dwight Sedgwick, in Yale Review.

CHANGES WROUGHT BY WAR
Many Things Have Been Brought to
Pass That Would Shock Old
time Observers.

Quite a number of things have hap
pened during or in consequence or the
war which never happened before. No
British king had ever passed under
NapOleOn's Arc de Triomphe until
King Georges recent visit to Paris.
No British army had before helped to
defend France against an invader.
British and Prussian troops had never
previously tried conclusions. Never
before thefwar had armies from lndla,
America, Canada, Australia, New Zea-
land or South Africa landed in Europe.
Until Mr.. Wilson, no "reigning
president of the United States had
crossed the Atlantic during his term
of Office, though ex-presidents have
done so.
Jerusalem. Damascus and Bagdad
had never before been captured by
modern European armies, nor had
British soldiers ever previously
marched through Mesopotamia. The
British flag is the first standard OF
Christian nation to float over Con-
stantinOple as that of a conqueror
since the taking of the city by the
Turks over four centuries ago. NO
king Of Prussia had ever lost his
throne or been driven into exile be-
fore; and no war had ever brought
