no LANGUAGE QUITE PURE
Words Expressing New Ideas and New
Things Are Passed From Ma
ton to Nation.

IT by % pure language" Is meant one
that does not contain words adopted
from another language. then there are
none among civilized nations. A Ian
guage is not something made to order,
ana that once made ends there so
far as development is concerned. A
language grows in many ways. Take
modern English for example. II diff.
fers considerably from the English Of
the time Of Queen Elizabeth, and ii
Is so different from the language
spoken In England ut the time Of the
Norman conquest that could one Of
those old Saxons come back he would
not understand US and we would not
understand him. And yet the Ian
guage he spoke Is the basis of modern
English. Since the time OF the Sax
ons there has been great growth. The
Normans brought In French, and
scholars since then have brought in
thousands Of words derived from Latin
ard Greek. These are English words
today, but the roots from which they
sprang are to be found In other and
In many cases In older languages. II
Is because Of this that the English vo-
cabulary is so extensive and the Ian
guage so expressive.
Italian, Spanish and French are
largely derived from Latin, which was
the language Of ancient Rome and for
centuries Rome was the ruler Of con-
tinental Europe. And the Latins Dor
rowed from the stlll older Greek.
A living language is always grow
Ing. For example, science Is introduce

Two aclassese pwindlinn.

One fact stands out from all birth
rate inyestigatlons-that the middle
and upper" classes show the heaviest
decline both in this country end
abroad, says the London Daily Mail.
Attempts have been made to coup
tclact this tendency by legislation, es'
ptclally in the United States, but so
lar without any real success. 1t may
be connected with the Dissatisfaction OF
aghly educated women to sacrifice In
dependence in marriage and also Wlt.i
ire growing burden of taxation
which is everywhere being lala en-
these classes.

ciaD.-A second republican convention
was held in Jacksonville Tuesday, the
so-called lilly whites" having decided to-
enter the lists. despite a setback re-
ceived some weeks ago when this or
ganization endeavored to discredit and
obstruct the assembling of what is called
the black-and- white republican party in
the state.
The convention Tuesday. presided over
by w. L. Van DuZor Of Eustis, who is
the state chairman of the white republi-
can party, was attended by representa-
tives from more than half of the fifty
two counties of the state, and a platform
was adopted. candidates and delegates
named. The platform included a decia-
ration that Florida should be brought
into the republican column and argued
strongly for the rallying OF the white re-
pubicans in the state. Various re-
forms were recommended and woman
suffrage was indorSed.
Florida newspapers continue to shy
at the presidential candidacy of any
candidate and talk generally of this
and that one. McAdoo stock has per-
haps taken a shade higher ruling and
Bryan is still sturdily supported by
some of the old-timers.
