Weddings and Health

recent issue of the Oregonian has an article
about breach-of promise suit lately tried in the
London courts.
After the engagement of a certain young
couple had been announced it was found that the
young woman had tuberculosis. Notwithstand-
ing, she proposed to go with the wedding as
planned, but the young man refused. She sued,
and the jury unable to agree.
1t seems that in London tuberculosis is not a
legal bar to n1atrimony; hence it may be that,
legally speaking, the young man is culpable. But
there must have been a strong sprinkling of old
fashioned common sense in that jury, since it
failed to find him guilty.
Legal or illegal, any person suffering from a
communicable disease has no business to marry.
If the disease is durable, tuberculosis is held
to be- and there be sufficient faith and affection
to bid people wait until the sick one is cured,
that is all right; but that any person who knows
himself to be the victim of so lingering an all
ment as tuberculosis should hold another person
to matrimony argues selfishness which BODIES
ill for the success of any marriage.
The young man may have been guilty of a
breach of contract which will eventually bring
him within the action of man-made law, but by
all the laws of health, he is right.

Latin, Greek and English

A man whose children will shortly enter high
school has been doing little investigating as to
their probable studies. He himself has some
knowledge of Latin and Greek, and believes them
Latin particularly, to be of great use in the de-
velopment and understanding of good English
vocabulary and he is little alarmed at the pro-
posed Punishment of these two studies from many
high school and college courses.
Just by way of experiment, he made up a list
of common words, to be submitted to pupils for
definition, as he says, mot the nomenclature of
botany, Of faunal-naturalism or anatomy, but or
binary words, one story above the street"
He persuaded the teachers in his home high
school to try these words on pupils who had had
training purely in English, and also those who
had received some instruction in the classical
languages. The result was illuminating.
The students of English revealed a knowledge
Of their native tongue so inaccurate as to be ap-
palling, while students of Latin and Greek had
little or no trouble in defining the same words
correctly.
Later the same lists were tried in widely sepa-
rated districts of this country, and in each case
the result was the same, the classical students
displayed the better knowledge of English.
The results of his findings published in
the July Atlantic magazine, and perusal of the
article should furnish both amusement and food
for meditation.
No matter what ones business in life may be,
a good vocabulary is good asset If the best
way to secure a flexible and comprehensive
knowledge of English is to learn some Greek and
Latin, it may be we'll to think it over little be-
fore condemning these studies as futile waste
of time.
