"Thro away the blu bakt speller What's the uee of eny feller Wasting eny time lit learning What old. Webster had to say? For our Teddy's Joined with Andy Saying, ‘Just whatever’s handy Is the proper way of spellln.* Bo we'll use Josh Billings’ way." “A-fi-d-r-e-s-t—addrest, they ust to spell It 'addressed,”’ he murmured. "A-c-c-u-r-e-t means 'accursed. 1 (Ah., I'm glad they have that word In the list. It cornea In handy), catalog—-I’m getlng ust to that; Kum-ln—” The reporter entered. He had been sitting up half the night learning to talk according tp the new spelling. In his troubled dreams familiar words like "anaesthesia" and "catalogue" and "encyclopaedia” has chased each other about his bed, some looking as if they had been amputated as their'posterior, extremity while others wore bandages about their middle and looked like an appendicitis convalescent. All bore a pained expression, none looked like the same old friend. All Rite, Saye Brittin. "What du you think of this Karnagy spelling, Mr. Brittin?" asked the re porter. "Dux It luk good to you or ant it? Kan yu talk It free hand or du yu hat'to use notes? Kan yu rite it on a typewriter? Will common tlpe do or wont It r "Why, It Is all rite," replied Mr. Brit tains only 300 wurds, tho that Is Just not so bad as yu talk It. The list con- taalns only 300 wurds, tho that Is Just ths begtnlng. 'But Karnagy didn’t du It In the first place. It was the Nashunal Educash- anal Assoslashun, komposed of all the educators In the kuntry, who appointed a kummltty to Investigate spelling and report. The kummltty plkt out twelv wurdx for the nlautOr, among which are 'program,' 'thru' and uthera. The movement wua given an Impetus when Karnagy tuk It up and now that Rozy- velt has bekum Interested and put It In the government kummlcashuns I think It will beku n more general. “Edukatori all over the kuntpy have faut over th‘. matter and It has been diskust In many meetings. The trends of the movement ganed their point and had a kommltty appointed and this kommlty chose twe,v wurdx which hav been adopted by the osaoclashun. I think It Is hilt the be inlng of a move ment which will eventually do much to slmpllft spelling, but I believe It will take meny years. The nuspapers and magaxens hav not helpt us much. They •tick to the old stile." Gud Thing, 8aye Rogers. The reporter climbed the steps to the capltol and began a search for Wil liam B. Merritt, state school commis sioner, but that gentleman had taken to the woods with n spelling book, leaving no address behind him. Hie assistant, J. N. Rogers, was left a vic tim for the sacrifice. He sighed as he turned to the newspaper man. first hastily hiding a printed list of the fatal 300 words under a dictionary which bore marks of revisions In lead pencil. "Yes, It Is a gud thing,” he remark ed. “The change Is not haf so radlkal as Xoa Webster made when he wrote the dlkshunary. Yu no Karnagy wunc eed that he had sens enuf to hire men to du things who had'more sens than he had. He furnlsht the muny and his kommltty furnlsht the reform. It wax a fine comblnaahun. I think the skul buk publishers will Inkorporat the changes In their nu buks. The slm- g llflkashun of spelling will be gradual, ut the Hat will gro until many wurdx are changed. Now, It It's all the same to yu let's talk linked States. I'm afrade the Janltoy will kum in and kach me at thia.” Changes Will Be Slow. The expressions of the two experts on education were that the changes In spelling, carefully considered by the committee entrusted with the work, would be generally adopted, but that the process of assimilation would be slow. The adoption of the new list by the government departments and the use of simplified words by the postof- flees In all their communications would undoubtedly have Its result. Already some of the magazines have adopted simplified spelling In certain cases, us ing "thru", for "through,” "catalog" for “catalogue" and "program” for "pro gramme," with similar changes In kin dred words. It Is believed, however, that few radical changes will be made In the language for a generation or two. So don’t throw away your abridged Just yet. It will still serve In most cases.

It Is believed-that Germans will gath er In Atlanta from all parts of the South and from every city In Georgia so as to celebrate fittingly the day and show their loyalty to "der Vaterland" as well as to the land, of their adop tion. The program of entertainment haa not been fully decided upon, although It Is known’ that there will be ad dresses during the day by prominent German-Americans delivered both In' English and in the native tongue. Tho festivities will be brought to a close by a reception and dance In the even- ?he German-American Society of Atlanta has accomplished much since Its organisation In bringing together the Germans of this section and It Is believed that German Day will greatly help to further the good work.' It Is also the desire of the society to wipe out the Impression created by a num ber of adverse and false reports which have spread throughout the East and even through Germany that the con-* dftlon of the Germans In the South Is deplorable. These reports are both detrimental to Immigration and an In justice to the Germans who have made their homes In the South. GEORGIA EXPERTS Confesses to Attempted At tack on Young Woman on Sunday.
