LANGUAGE ENRICHED BY WAR
Great Conflict May Be Said In a Meas
ure to Have Revoutionized Our
Methods OF Speech.

II is generally admitted that the
war has revolutionized methods of
speech as II has revolutionized war
fare. The soldiers of the trenches
have added more words to the Ian
guage Of simple men than would be
added In 25 years Of peace. "Strafe,"
"blighty," "cushy"--one might fill n
page with the strange language which
has come into use.
The soldiers adopt slang as does a
schoolboy, and to use slang instead Of
ordinary words suggests certain de-
gree of knowlngness and initiation. II
also appeals to the sense of humor,
and as the soldiers become hardened to
warfare they thrust aside emotions
and talk slang to avoid the old forms
Of speech which might cause them to
think too much.
The American who called a ceme-
terry bone orchard" revealed bit
Of imagination and at the same time
concealed his real feelings. The sol
dler who tells you that at the moment
Of danger he "crept into the tall
grass" means that he slipped away
and made himself invlslble-and he
has coined an Image as well as a
phrase.
Together with the slang words and
phrases must be mentioned the new
words coined or old words used In a
new way. large number of words
has developed from the use of air
plane; aircraft, airman, airscout, pur-
suit plane, bombing plane, empennage
(the stablllzing planes of the air
plane), aileron Ga lateral balancing
plane), avlon, escadrllle (an alrplnne
until, etc.
Other examples are the words de-
scriptive Of military tactics. Some
of these are liaison (co-operation) be-
tween forces; barrage, camouilage, lis
tening post, gas mask, gas shell.

On the afternoon of February Ind
the soul of Harry Bramhall Bullock
of this city, passed from earth to the
great beyond"
with influenza which soon developed
into pneumonia. His father and
mother were called to Jacksonville
and were at his bedside during his
last hours and all that could be done
was done to stay the visit of the death
angel, but all to no avail
1t is almost trite to say that death
at any and at all seasons is an un
welcomed and unloved guest.
In the frost of winter, when man
has lived out his allotted span of life
we are loath to give up our loved ones;
but when they are taken from us in
the spring time of their yohth, just as
they are approaching the noon-tide
of life with so much to live for, the
sorrow is intensified and grave is
made in the hearts of the mounrners
that time-mollifier as it is-will
never assuage.
Harry Bullock was born in Ocaia
thirty-one years ago and grew to man
hood in our city. BY his cheerful
manners and sunny disposition he
very easily won for himself friends
A more vigorous specimen of a
young man could scarcely be found
Erect, sinewy and strong, with the
pose and carriage of an athlete, he
presented a picture of physical per
fection that one was proud to see.
When war was declared he was one
of the first to respond to the call to
arms, and during the entire period ol
the world-war he served his country
in the naval branch Of the service
and there too, among his comrades,
he won many admiring friends.
The deceased left Ocala about ten
years ago to reside in Jacksonville:
there he married Jacksonville girl
who survives him. He also leaves a
father, mother, four brothers and
three sisters to mourn his death.
We extend our sincere sympathy to
the sorowing ones, but we are com
forted with the thought that they
sorrow not as those who have no
hope.
