Yet He Cites Many Instances of Changes Which Have Been Highly Reneflclnl and Progressive. "Fonetlc spelling Is out of the ques tion," said Superintendent of Public Instruction J. H. Ackerman yesterday to the Salem Statesman, when asked as to his views on President Roose velt's order to the government print ing and other offices at the national capital changing the spelling of many words. Continuing he said: A new alfabet would be required before we could adopt such a system and there Is no sufficient reason for It. Our prezent alfabet Is entirely In adequate to such a radical change and I want It distinctly understood that I am positizely oppozed to that Idea. I am not at all sure that I have ob tained correct reports or the prezl dent's position on the question, but as I understand him, from the Infor mation I have gathered. I believe that he does not go to the extreme of advo cating fnnetlc spelling. He merely suggests certain reforms in spelling as eliminating some un necessary silent letters. As for that, some silent letters cannot be dispensed with as the final e in cane, which sig nifies that the "a" has the long sound, and thus prevents confuzlon with "can." anil similarly In many other words vl'h a silent final e or other letter determining the pronunciation of the word. Certain reforms are being mide ind should "i-.i'io. nnd as to these I am In svmpatl.y with any reasonable movement looking to the simplifica tion, of our spelling.

Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure if obtained quickest by a proper treatment of the kidneys.

It is but a short while since this word was universally spelled with a final "me". The two finnl letter were never used ln pronunciation of the word, nothing has been lost by dispensing .vlih th"in. but there has been a dis tinct gain. Take words like honor, formerly spelled with a "u." as In honour: noth ing Is to be gained by retaining the "u" nnd so It Is with a great meny other words that have silent letters not affecting the pronunciation they may as well he simplified. Plow was formerly spelled plough: nothing has been lost by hnving changed that word, but there has been a decided gain. There is no reason why simplifying some of our words should lead to con fusion. The older pupils In the schools have taught as they are at prezent everyone knows or Is sup- pozed to know the proper spelling at this time and gradually we would be come accustomed to the changed words but mind. I am not advocating! fonetlc spelling at all I am merely; speaking of eliminating certain use less letters from some words that Is all. Take the word phonetic: I see no ! reason for spelling it differently, but If It were spelled "fonetlc" It would I not be long before nearly every one would understand. j It Is Impossible to give an offhand opinion as to the number of words ' that might be simplified and I cannot! say whether the prezident's list of 300 words is long or not. It seems like a good many, but there are many words that might be changed.
