respectfully yours.
 SYLVIA F.. kATZM AN.

In defense of the newsboy Inc Editor wishes to state that he prob ably knows perfectly well how tc pronounce New Britain Herald" bud he is usually led sstray in his pro nunciation by the constant repeti ton of three words. Tho naiura tendency Of all Of us, perhaps unfor tunately, is to cut corners in ouiI speech when VIC arc forced to use q combination of words repeatedly (We wonder if our correspondent plays Nah Jong and. if she does, 1 she carefully aTticulates the word five Of characters" every time sh discards that tila). She would b true 10 form if she said five cracks"
 This does not account for the in troduction Of an extra vowel in th name Of the paper, that vowel bein invariably an "a' between in Britain" and the Herald" but her again we see what is evidently popular human failing. The use that "a" makes sustained vocal ei fort easier in many cases. Witncs the usual singer (not the best) wh finishes a phrase and grunts an "a where it is not in the song at al How many times has ono heard singer articulate like this: Down | the stream "a where 1 first met m darling a" etr.-Ed.

 May [, 1924. Editor of the "Herald": My dear Sir:
 Please do not be surprised at~this eomplaint. I admit that it is an un- usual one. But when you learn what my vocation is, you will per hnps understand this letter>and make allowances for 1t. I am one of to- morrow's teachers, and as such am much concerned about the educa- tional welfare of the rising genera ton. Therefore it causes me much mental agony whenever l hear the little newsboys shouting forth the name of your paper. That name has been so atrociously murdered that it can hardly be identified. I have heard such unrecognizablc names as Break in a HurI," "Breetna Heral," and others just as bad, shouted forth from the mouths Of innocent news boys, who arc blissfnlly unaware Of the extent of their crime. Many an- other sensitive soul from the passins throngs has inwnrdly cried out in protest against the innocent slaughter of a perfectly inoffensiNs proper nanln.
 Could you not take measures to remedy this evil? Ii seems to me that through the columns Of your paper an appeal could be made to the grade teachers of New Britain, Since the oral English instruction Of the little newsboys is in the hands of tho school teachers, the teachers could well correct the mispronunciation of the name New Britain Herald" In this way they would not only ini- prove the newsboys Of the city. but would also relieve the public of a nuisance.
