In n discussion if tin; use of slunjr by school cliildrcn,
.n English -instructor at ;i Icachor's school Hcclnrcd tlutt,
"If wc want our children to speak tood KiiRlish, Ihcy must
ibviously hoar Rood English at home.". No one must ussuhio,
liowcVer, that a child, just because ho has heard correct
English only, will speak correctly j 11c will make no mis
take in the use of such cimcrele terms as "tree," or "man,"
but when he find.- (hut "he" and "him" arc applied lo the
same' person, he will u- the forms indifferently and is as
likely to say "Mini ns "He tfoe.s." With this qualifica
tion, one must agree with the lecturer that the way to
learn a liuijjiiairc is to hear il. His only complaint is that
the schoolboy learns two luiiKiianes, one from his parents

.become as neimanent a possession of the
language as "skysi iaper," while similar words, as "speak
easy," "blind tiger," and "hole-in-the-wall," which have
dropped out of use, aic undoubtedly slang. In most eases
of this kind theie is already a won! in the language that
would have cxpicssecl all the speaker wished to convey.
Nuinc .veal's ago the word "ringer" was applied to any per
son very .similar lo another in appearance, as in the ex
pression, "a dead linger for so-and-so;" it was connected
somehow with i'le veib "ring in;" but there had always
existed in the language the word "double" lo express the
same idea. The habitual user of slang may be accused of
ignorance of his own language.
The claim that slang is more expressive lhaii the ordin
rry word for the same notion is open to criticism. It is
the nature of slang to Is- new and so not always clear to
the one who hears il. lie may be, like the compiler of
a dictionary of slang, who, read in an American newspaper
that "a man seen out in the rain with a jag." and defined
the word "jag" ns "a .small umbrella." But it is prububly
