JEWS TAKE UP FARMING IN

THE ENGLISIINI.AN FINDS OUR
FICTION ENGLISH DIFFICULTY.
But Mark Twain Is Easy

Rut no sooner does American writ
ing mass TO the less ambitious domains
of popular fiction or smart ana
jamty journalism than the British
reader becomes aware OF unfamiliar
notes. This is not merely so when the
writer is deliberately representing
dialect In such cases We naturally
look for plentiful eccentricities of
speech We recognize that they are
probably as much eccentricitics from
the American point of view as they
are from our own. We no more take
them for the ordinary language OF
America than we should take dialect
i'm our own novelists for che ordinary
language of Great Britain. THUS
whatever delusion many Americans
may entertain upon the pcint-the hui
,norous provincial phrasing of Mark
Twain's characters is probably as fully
appreciated by the British reader as
by the same proportion of readers in
America. Perhaps to us it even gains
something in humor thru a quaint
ness" of language which is necessarily
somewhat less quaint to the people
who are in more habitual touch Win
it. Probably. if We We're fortunate
enough to possess as superiativt hu-
morist writing in Britain. the effect

analogous. The colloquialism in Mark
Twain is. indeed. far less foreign
to ourselves than many n piece of or
binary writing in the 'snappy" jour
nalism of the United States. But
this is perhaps, by the way. The i'm
mediate point is that the more pop
ular or ephemeral type of American
book or article, even when neither in
dialect nor in slang. does generally
contain for us sundry indications OF
an exotic origin. In other words. it
contains "Amcricanisms.'
This does not mean thar we carp at
or resent such unfamiliar expressions
us those writings offer: it merely
means that we are conscious of them ;
they suggest a widening tho not vet
n pcrpleXingly wide, rift within the
common language. To some extent
this is due to the mere words. Ameri-

the mastery. We think that we are
open-minded seekers after truth. But
business and social interests have de-

even more important psychologically
jlian the esteem of others. And this
human craving for self-justification by
