To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Apropos of college education. a
subject at present much discussed,
would like to suggest that all col
leges Immediately institute as part of
their curriculum class in enuncia-
tion and pronunciation, for it is most
deplorable the way some, and I may
we'll say the majority of college
graduates, pronounce the English lam
guage. This applies to men whose
ancestors spoke the language, as we'll
as to those who have only recently ac-
quired it.
l have worked for college graduates
in this city for number of years, and
1T is a rare instance where one Of
them can dictate a one-page paper in
such way that you don't have to
ask him to repeat what he has said
at least once and sometimes oftener in
order to get it. Sometimes those Of us
who are earning our living at this busi-
ness simply get to be good guessers
and guess half of what is said. They
seem to think they can humble, half
enunciate, slide over or do It any
old way. There should be class in
enunciation in every college Of the
country, and little of the time
That is now given to outdoor sports
might we'll be spent in attending it, So
that the persons who come in contact
with these graduates, be they aristo-
Gratis or otherwise, won't get head.

Sir: The streetcar, bound to its sin

fight that is being waged in Newark to
confirm this. It is finish fight be-

and the streetcar is losing out.
True, the busses are putting the pub

streetcars in very embarrassing
position and in hundreds of cases have
actually forced them to the wall, but
can we afford to let these corpora

struction to traffic?

stage coach operators by throttling

stop the development Of cable cars to
protect the horse car operators? The

(Fron1 The Maritime Merchant, HaHfdT, N.S.j
When is a fishing schooner not a
"banker"? According to Lunenburg
practice, when she is merely fishing
schooner and not freight carrier us
we'll. For half century or more the
Lunenburg bank schooner has been OF
type fitted both to go to the banks
on salt fish trips and to knock about
the seven seas as we'll carrying the
same fish when cured to distant foreign
markets. It is an efficient type, from
an economic standpoint, affording the
utmost use Of the vessel the year
round-ishing in the summer, market
ing in the winter. Lunenburg sees no
reason why a type of vessel should be
abandoned that gives her an indepen-
dence in the marketing Of her fish
which she could not have if her vessels
were built merely for speed and not
for seaworthiness in any latitude in
any season.
Lunenburg wants a vessel that will
both stand the strain Of her arduous
work and provide sufficient carrying
capacity to make her profitable. When
the schooner race was conceived il.
was the intention that only such yes
sells should be entered, and therefore
the moment the schooner. race becomes
yacht race it has no reason in the
world for existence. So far the inter-
national committee has been able 20
stand its ground on this principle, and
in the interests Of the purity of our
new national sport we hope they will
be able to maintain it,
The Halifax committee have had to
stand some very harsh criticism from
the friends Of the Mayfower because
of her elimination from the interna-
tional race, and there have been some
even in Canada who for the sake Of
avoiding friction would have favored
the acceptance of the Mayfower's en-
try in the race this year. We think

zen and he has duty to those OF
whon he asks votes.
TO deny a request to answer CAM
paign questions, particularly when
put by women, who are new in poli-
sics and have special desire for en-
lightenment, seems to The Tribune a
mistake. That the Governor is con-
ducting his campaign with the ut
most frankness and is answering
in his speeches every possible ques-
ton is not the poirt If it will help
these citizens to form an intelligent
opinion upon the issues to have an
swers to these questions, The Trib-
une feels that they should have them
and that Governor Miller would be
doing publ'c service by answering
them.

OF the company and its stockholders
and renders valuable public service for
which the truly public spirited citizen
is glad to pay.
omnibus transportation is here to
stay, and only ignorance of its value to
the public at large and the position it
has already won in the field of trans
portation will retard its rapid growth.

James M. Cox has just returned
from Europe, and he is writing
about it in "The New York World"
We learn from Mr.. Cox's articles:
"I think Paris is, entitled to
be called the most beautiful city
in Europe" -.
"Cathedrals are always Of
interest"
"The art treasures in the
Vatican are priceless.
"The French, German, Dutch
and English are great lovers Of
flowers"
"The most impressive govern
mental experiments now going
on are in Ireland, Czecho-
Sloyakia, Albania and Ger
many" -.
"In making comparison, there
are no two hedrals
alike"
"The chateau district of
France is most attractive"
Mr.. Cox is one of those who ran
for President in 1920.
1t seems to us that the American
Prohibitionist owes debt of honor
to the American merchant marine
It is his duty to travel and travel

More Truth Than Poetry
By James J. Montague
Happy Sacrifice


IA Now York furrier was recently
wounded by an arrow said to nave been
shot by n movie star who was practiclng
archery on nearby hotel
At first it filled us with dismay
When, in its mad career,
A vagrant bullet took away
A portion Of our ear.
For then. of course, we couldn't
know
The way the thing was done
An actor in a movie show
Was trying out gun.
We voiced too rudely our re-
proof
Harsh, bitter words we said
When some one tumbled off a
roof
And landed on our head.
We never should have gone so far
Did we suspect at all,
That it was just a movie star
Rehearsing for fall.
The other day we lost an arm
And waxed extremely rough,
And yet it really did no harm,
For one is quite enough.
At such small and trifling thing
One ought not take affront--
A movie star was practicing
A little broad-ax stunt.
We proudly now our wounds
parade,
Recalling each great star
Who, toiling at his art, has made
Our every bruise and scar.
Well lost is eye or arm or ear
To men of glorious name,
And losing them is quite as near
AS we shall come to fame.

Killed." we cried, shocked. "You
don't mean to say you cockroaches
kill them?"
He answered.:
we ,cockroaches
do not get as many
Of them
as the spiders do
all insects prey on them
when they can
and they prey
on insects
did you ever see q
little transparent
shrimp just out
of the water
well that is what
they look like
and they taste about
the same way
with lettuce
and sliced tomatoes
and dash of
mayonnaise dressing
between couple Of thin
slices Of bread they
should be wonderful
wish had mess
of the darned things
right now
"How do you catch them?" we
asked the Demon Coclroach.
He replied:
with honey
we gaum little
honey from wild bee
tree onto leaf
and they come and
eat it off
and they stick fast
to the leaves
then we pounce on them
and kill them
and eat them
"This is frightful!" we cried.
Archy said:
why get so heated
about the confounded
little nuisances
that is always
the way with
you human beings
you are all full of
sentimentality
and no sense
why do you not have
sympathy with the poor
insects which these
creatures kill and eat
it is a case of
eat bug or die with all
Of us never saw
you shed any tears
over eating an oyster
or mess of shrimps or
half dozen frogs legs
you eat beef and mutton
and fish and pork
and all kinds of birds
without qualm
and you would eat insects
too if you liked them
Horrible! Horrible!" we ex-
claimed.
The Cockroach continued:
you think SO just
because you have not
accustomed your mind
to it if you
accustom your mind
to it the fact of their
existence and the fact
that they are food
will soon become
as commonplace to you
as snails.

Humphreys Views Results of
Montana Storm

Guy F. Humphreys returned from
Fairview, Mont, and other points in
the interest Of the Paper Supply Co.
He passed over the cyclone belt be-
tween Fairview and Sidney. For miles
along the west side Of the road farm
buildings were damaged and at one
place a fine set of buildings was COM
pletely wiped out. A school house
between the towns was carried for
ten rods, one corner cutting a CLEAN
furrow in a sod field as smoothly as
a knife goes thru a chunk of cheese.
A three-inch plank in the school yard
used as a teeter-totter, was driven
squarely into the building, the siding
not even being splintered. One wo-
man in that vicinity was picked up
and killed, her legs being driven into
the ground up to the knees. At Char
bonneau, N. D., garage was COM
pletely wrecked.
