SLOW GROWTH OF GRAMMAR
Interesting to Note Its Progress Since
the Days of chaucer and
Shakespeare.

In the days of Chaucer there were
undoubtedly differences among writ
ers which made their grammar and
spelling seem singular to us; yet crude
enough they We're the art of literary
composition was well advanced.
That, however, was not the greatest
age; it came In the Ellzabethan Pc
Rod and while the literary peculiari-
ties of Shakespeare's style were strong
ly defined; it could not be said in any
sense that they revealed lack Of knowl-
edge in either grammar or spelling,
the standards of that day being suited
to the culture of the time.
And great advance had been made
over the days of Chaucer. In the days
of Addison, Johnson, Swift, Congreve
and Goldsmith we find great advance
with more unity in both grammar and
spelling
The authorized version of the Bible
In the line of literary workmanship
noted the greatest advance Of all and
reached point which has not been
surpassed If, indeed, equaled.
There was certain latitude In spell
ing, 1t Is true, to which we today hook
back with interested curiosity; but
even that was not the result of tgno-
rance, but rather of custom, which al
lowed the latitude and 1t was In no
sense literary Observation-Disclosures
