Standard of English
Speech Not Possible
A recognized authority on English
words and speech recently said: "Not
long ago a conference was held In
London for the purpose of arriving at
a universal standard for English
speech. At one time I believed that
It «as Impossible.
“ Later, the subject was brought to
my attention by prominent educator*.
Under the stress of argument* pre­
sented to me I weakened In my Judg­
ment, and was willing to go on record
as saying that It might be possible to
standardize Englirh speech, hul after
two ypars of close study of the whol*
subject I feel that my first Judgment
was right.
“ It Is as Impossible to standardize
the sounds In American and Rugllsh
speech with the hope of having the
standardization accepted throsgbout
the EngHsh-epHiklng world as It Is to
stem the tide of the sea."

An easy and efficient method of
culling the nouproducers out of the
new hatch of pullets can be accom-
pushed In the following manner, If
tach hatch has hem housed separate-
ly : Keep the first 75 per cent of the
pull-ls that come Into production and
sell the other one-fourth, or those that
are last to start producing. By fol­
lowing this practice, few n«nprodne-
er- «III be carried through the winter
on high-priced feed, taking up room
needed for lujer*.
