the ground that in the long run
the movement would be unwise

a definite stop to the decen-

Slang Review of Book on Slang

The latest work Of Eric Part
ridge, British scholar of note,
author of many books about po-
pular speech, is Slang To-Day and
Yesterday. 1t is published by
the Macmillan Company.
Assigned to review this vol
ume for the Raleigh Necs and
Observer, Anthony J Mckevlin
conceived the amusing notion Of
writing the review in slang We
quote a few passages:
Hes taken this slang busi-
ness apart to see what makes it
tick. He's got the dope comm
and goin'. And he doesn't ask
you to grab his bait and fall
hook, line. and sinker. He took
a lo0k-see into the bright re-
marks Of all the guys what cut
figure in the word and Ian
guage racket, and he trots out
for us the hi-de-do Of those
worth tunin' in on. What's
more, he serves it up in a way
which takes the eye, and he puts
over his act in hot style.
"One Of the high lights in
what a rokie gets from this
1owdown on the parade Of slang
through the ages is the oceans
Of midnight oil burned in the
study Of the thing And Part
ridge is bird at skimming the
cream off the top fight stuff

In his talk at the freshman as
sembly at the chapel period yes
terday morning, Close took for
his topic The Part Youth Plays
in World Affairs. There were
two kinds Of people in the world,
he said; those who might be
called COWS and those who might
be called protesters. Cows live
for the present and have no in
terest in directing their des-
tiny. A large proportion Of the
worlds population is in this
class. The protesters are those
who protest about the oppres-
sion and brutality in life and
who try to make life better.
THE reason for coming to col
lege is to make yourselves bet
ter and more intelligent protest
ers. In college youth should
form a more intelligent idea Of
what it wants in the future.
This nation is coming to one
Of the greatest crises in its his
tory, There is going to be a
terrific wave Of protest. We are
seeing now only a prelude to the
first act of what is going to hap
pen in Washington in few
years. If the protest is not in
telligent, the country will be re-
duced to chaos.
1T is time for the future tax
payers and those who will be
the cannOn-fodder of the nation
to turn their minds from radio
crOoners, sports, and things Of
such trivial character to the
matters that have a really i'm
portant bearing upon the future.
They must learn to protest in
telligently in order that they
may lead a life that is decent,
honorable, and hopeful, and not
just shambles."

pace-setters, and dare-devils of
slang. At times he spreads his
scholarly bits so smoothly that
it is almost like homecooking
Any army of experts have
kept tab on this branch Of chat
ter since the first slang diction-
airy appeared in 1890. You'd be
surprised. And some Of the best
writer's have given a lift here
and there to slang then in the
swim. There's more kick in this
Slang To-Day and Yesterday than
most of US would figure before
hand Topping off this book is
a section given over to vocabu
laries of slang-British, Austria
lian, and American. This gives
the reckoned time when the var
ious words got their starts in
life, and many of them are far
more along in years than folks
would imagine. Many Of these
words which our modern diction-
ary gives blue-blood rating has
only old slang white trash for
dads. In etymology the wild
oats Of the daddy aren't always
visited on the kiddies Even a
lot Of hand-us-doWns from Latin
show crooked limbs if you give
their family trees thorough
slang-over."
