OUR ENGLISH SPEECH It Is more and amazement to me more a matter or to bear how generally we misuse the English language. It Is not to fee wondered at that the illiterate do so; they" have had little teaching,- per- .haps, and that not the best, and they hear dally and hourly far more incorrect speech than they do otherwise. We should expect them to blunder. It is those who have had training who amaze and disappoint me--the high school graduate who has had twelve years of formal drill in English and who comes often from a home in which English Is correctly spoken-- or should be--and the college graduate who has-had four additional years of drill In English and an association with those who should use ; correct speech even if they do not. These at least should be adept enough in the management of their native tongue not to fall constantly Into egregious blunders. I listened today to a man who has had an excellent home training, his father an<f mother ,both having graduated from college--and he, himself, has had seven years of qoileglate and professional experience since he left the high school--enough certainly to teach him something. He counseled his hearers to "lay off" certain practices ; he "suspicioned", that other things were going to happen; he spoke of the foolishness of doing "those kind" of things, and spoke of some one who had been "pen-allzed" for the committing of some indiscretion. He ended by saying that "everyone should do their best" Now all these errors are simple but quite apparent if one would give them even a slight consideration, and being recognized they might be avoided. v Why do we speak so badly? Because we have never come to a realization of the fact that correct speech Js of any vital importance. Whertpeople tell me that they cannot spell or remember peoi'ule's names, or get ^up in the morniag, I know very weil ..that they have never realized with any keenness the real importance and -value of these things. If a man could ^realize that he was losing prestige and social standing and money through the crudeness of his speech, he would set himself assiduously to correcting It <©, 1928.
