"Ain't" Is Vulgar, Yet =
We Shy at Gam I Not?"

A teacher of English has pointed
out q curious effect of the constant
stressing OF the vulgarity of the use
Of the word "ain't" in conversation.
Admitting that the continued instruc
tion has been useful in some direc-
tions, he says that, when it comes
to questions, the result seems to
have been to substitute one error
for another.
The child would ordinarily remark,
"Ain't I glad don't have to do it,"
or, ''I'm right, amt I?'' is now likely
to change, somewhat self-cOnspicu-
ously to "Aren't l glad l don't have
to do it?" or, "I'm right aren't II"
Especially, to the girls, it seems,
that sounds a lot more elegant even
if ungrammatical.
1t is strange that people should
shy at the little expression, "Am /
not" Americans just do not care
for those three little words. Among
our homespun citizenry there is a
deep-seated suspicion that they can
note either condescensiOn or pose.
Many prefer to stumble around
looking, Intellectually, for something
just as good, which they seldom
find.-BostOn Herald.

I'm planning a trip to California"
"Perilla, dear, we've got to take
up Farman as burden, you know.
You can't leave him to run around
by himself, you know"
For a moment Perilla looked
panicky, then she said, But you
told me, Malky, to treat him as if
he weren't there. I'm ready to do
whatever you say, but you must
make it clear"
Il will. Also, Garth is coming
over from Philadelphia in a few
days. Perhaps they'll hit the same

would be better. Garth might scare
the Farman person, but as 1 read

II say, Pril," Malcolm said cheer
fully, will the old 'un take a no

Like as not. And if she takes
the notion, she'll carry it out. I'm
going to try to stay friendly with
her." ......... ..........
Malcolm said, 'Tt's ten chances to

of room. Well, I'll leave you"
''Wait a minute, Pril," Malcolm
