The 408,O0O,O0O people in the
complex nation speak 179 Ian
guages and 544 dialects, the Ma

Though only 100000 Indians are
fluent in English, many more mil

English is one of Is major Ian

1t is the lingua franco of Indian
officials and intellectuals, whose
speech often has the stately flavor

Linguistic Splinter Groups
Members of the Indian Parlia-
ment usually debate IN English, the
language most have in common.
However some Legislators speak
only their provincial tongues, and
one representative of an aboriginal
tribe could understand no one but
himself.
This members plight recalled
instances turned up in an Indian
Genus. There apparently was only
one man in India who spoke andre.
The two persons who could con-
verse in Nora and the four who
know Kabui were somewhat better
off. These splinter groups lived in
the sparsely populated tribal areas
of Assam, where linguistic frag-
mentation still is rife. The great
majority of Indians, however,
speaks at least one of the major
languages.
The Indian Constitution estab-
fishes Hindi, an Indo-Aryan tongue,
as the national language. What is
called "Hindi" today actually is
Hindustani, a dialect of western
Hindi used by the man on the
street in much of India. Hindi is
spoken by some 140,000,000 per-
sons, thus is the third most popu-
lar language in the world after
Chinese and English. Hindu is re-

guage of Pakistan.

Miss Isabel Gordon Riddick'

John Andrew Krider, Jr., son OF
Mr., and Mrs. Krider Of Manteo;
were quietly married at 1870 Tues
day afternoon, July 20, in the home
of the Rev. C. w. Guthrie of Wan

The bride wore a street length
sheath dress of, white pique, with
short jacket and Black accessories.
Attending the wedding were Mrs.
Carlton Etheridge and Mrs. Man
hing Gray of Manteo, sisters of
the bridegroom; and Mrs. c. w,
Guthrie.
The bride is a rising senior in
Manteo High School, and is en-
ployed by Outer Banks Crafts. Mr.,
Krider is a graduate of Manteo
High School, and is a member OF
the U. S. Coast Guard, stationed
at Caffey's Inlet. They are max

All of these doors have been
opened wider to the criminal by
supporters of penal reform, who
pledged that their program would
result in honest citizens and empty
jails. Like so many other reforms
advanced in the name of "prog-

cisely opposite to those promised.

of India, only 555 people speak
Sanskrit. There is, however, a
movement to purify popular Hindi
by throwing out borrowed words
and replacing them with Sanskrit.
Substitution often proves difficult.
When synonym for an alien word
does not exist in Sanskrit, the
meaning must be conveyed by a
definition. For example,, radio be-
comes Celestial voice."
Sanskrit Is Difficult
The wide gulf between written
and spoken forms of many Indian
languages causes confusion. The
literary form of Bengal is clutter
ed with Sanskrit words and dead
grammatical forms. Bengalis find
it difficult to pronounce Sanskrit,
so the spoken word often sounds
quite different from it's spelling.
Tamil, a major south Indian
tongue, is burdened with clumsy
rules. 1t is bad rhetoric, for in
stance, for a writer to repeat any
of a dozen Tamil synonyms for

Language is such a major force
in India that boundaries are drawn
along linguistic lines. The large
bilingual state of Bombay recently
was divided into Gujerat and Ma

It's good for the morale of the
country that the TV and movies
rarely show the final chapter of

wind up with criminals being jailed

courage of the police.
IF they showed what comes next,
Americans would not feel so salts

If you don't believe it, examine
the rapid rate of increase in crime
in this country. It has grown some
what in proportion to the deteriora-
ton of our capacity to convict and
confine criminals. Last year alone,
it increased over per cent.
The increase comes because OF
two reasons. One is the fact that
the habitual criminal now spends
less time in prison = where he
would not be contributing to the
statistics-and more time outside,
to repeat his offenses again and
again. The other is the natural
flow of people into the underworld
drawn there by the growing pro-
spect of profit and the lessening
chance of punishment.
A criminal is well aware of the
maze of escapes open to him. II

may be acquitted. If convicted, he

had covered the grave of Thomas
Harvey (ID. 1t had been up

a tree. 1t had been there long
enough for a burl as large as a
mans upper arm to grow over its
top. At the top was the Harvey
crest, and the inscription read:
"Here lieth inferred the body of
Col. Thomas Harvey elder son of
Thomas Harvey, Esq, formerly

preserved in stone that Governor
Thomas Harvey, the father of

The State is indebted to the late
David Cox, Hartford surveyor. He
knew perhaps more about the an

anyone else. His interest was par

Swamp, where his knowledge Of
the lines of the grants to John Fon-

monetary value to him and his
clients in the famous series of legal
battles between the Richmond
Cedar Works and John L. Roper
Lumber Company half century
ago. Considerations other than
money motivated him in locating
the old grants in his native County
of Perquimans. In 1929 he made
Colonial Map of the County for
inclusion in Mrs. Watson Winslow's
History of Perquimans County"
printed privately in 1881. That
map locates the Thomas Harvey

the Perquimans River; where

of the Province, 1694-1699, lies

WHO CAN DO IT?

Most people born and raised
during the depression years
considered it a handicap, but
not David Wilson, his patient
determination to succeed no
matter what has been self
applied all through his life.
After graduating in 1882, he
worked wherever and when
ever he found work. However,
jobs being sc scarce at that
time, people used to jokingly
say you can't even buy a
job" Things looked dismal
until Mr.. Wilson finally found
a steady high paying job (all
of $40 a week. in a garage
and managed to put himself
through Dyke-Spencerian col
lege. BY applying himself
thoroughly, he was the first
man from that college to pass
all three, speed shorthand

tests.
When he graduated from
college luck was with him,
when he applied for and re-
Ceived a seCretarial position
to the traffic manager of Ad-
Observation-Disclosures Corp.
Enjoying a good position, the
future was eginning to shine
through to him when romance
came into his life, his wife
Leola. They were married
November "a, 1941 and soon
after purchased their home in
Willoughby, where they still
reside with their 9 year old
daughter, Linda.
Then the explosion that de-
cidedly shaped his future,
came December 7, 1941.
After joining the Army he
learned a new trade. He de-
veloped a strong like for his

work, repairing aircraft in
strumentS, plane panels and
keeping the pilots watches in
AL shape at all times.
Leola Wilson has worked
by her husbands side all al
ong. She also worked her
way through college. She tea
ches elementary school at
Garfield school in Willoughby.
After the war he worked at
his new profession Of watch
and jeWelry repair in PaineS-
vile until 1851. Still applying
his patient determination to
establish a more secure fu-
.ture for his family and him
self, he came to Chardon and
worked six months in the
store he intended to and later
did purchase in January of
1852.
His store, average in size,

ry, dinnerWare, SilverWare,
clocks and radios on display.
When asked how most en-
gagement rings are sold, Mr..
Wilson said Most rings are
sold to prospective bride

gagged couple come in to Sc
