THE FL~rURE el? ENGLISH
The past of anything is often dry,
the present interesting, but there
is a mysterious thrill at mention
of the future. To look into the
future of something close to us all,
like the English language, should
be very fascinating.
The endurance of a thing
through the years depends upon
its foundation, as a language, seems
to have a sturdy background. The
following statistics appeared in a
previous issue of the Reader's Di-
gest. 191 million people in the
world speak English as their ma-
jor language, French or Spanish
rating second, while 20 million
more speak it as a second to their
native tongue. Three-fourths of
the world's mail is in English, the
language of the mightiest empires
on earth. Today one may go any-
where in the world, speaking only
English, and get along almost as
nicely as in New York. This terrif-
fic spread of English over the en-
tire world has heen promoted
chiefly by travelers and merchants,
for it is the official language of
the sea. .Moreover, the promin-
enee of our language is still on the
increase. It is taught extensively
in German, Japanese, Italian, and
high standing of Cornell college other schools.
A language, to be so popular,
among mid-western colleges and must have something, some ad-
has complete confidence that this vantages not found in other lan-
record wilt be .continued and ad-Iguages. English does. It is super-
vaneed under the leadership of Ii°r in wealth, wisdom, and econ-
l oIny. It is more bold, simple, clear.
Dr. Mcgee. compact, it has fewer genders, and
it has more short words than any
~VHEItE TO DRAW THE ]LINE
IS DIFIPICUI/r QUESTION
Elliott Roosevelt, son of the
President, is strongly opposed to
the new regulations governing
broadcasting on controversial sub.
jects. Elliott has broadcasted a
weekly commentary on current
events which has been subject to
the new control.
Where to draw the line on so-
called inflammatory use of freedom
of speech and the press is a diffi-
cult question. Agitators who urge
use of vicious tactics and who are
opposed to our form of government
need not be permitted to operate
without any restraint.
VCa.lter V¢inehell says that free-
dom of speech does not permit you
to yell, "Fire!" in a crowded thea-
tre.
In the case of Father Coughlin
the writer heard him say in his
own church that representatives of
communism were invited to speak
in his church in reply to Father
Coughlin's attacks on communism.
He advocated two pulpits, one for
the minister and one for a non-
believer to speak from, so his argu-
ments could be answered by the
minister.
Some reasona~ble control to re-
strict ulterior forces would seem
desirable. The important thing is
to be certain the cure is not worse
than the practice, that regulations
rbe made which would be worse
than no restrictions at all.
WHIS APPLIES THE SAME
TO MT. VERNON AND LISBON
"Sure I believe in doing my part
in helping build Iowa Fails," a
good citizen of this eo'mmunity tells
us this week. "I would like to
make all of my purchases in Iowa
Falls. But I can't always get the
things I want and am forced to go
elsewhere."
This ia hard to say, but our an-
swer to that statement is this:
If you are really and sincerely
interested in building Iowa Falls
and this community and your fav-
orite merchant is not stocking mer-
chandise that you can fairly say
he should for your wants and the
wants of a number of Iowa FalL,
residents, you can render a great
service for your community by
talking over this point with your
merchant and getting him to see
the light. If your statement is cor-
rect and the merchant wants your
business, he should be fair with
you and pull himself out of the rut
and into more profit by putting the
personel of his store on their toes
with "Service" for their motto and
putting himself aboard the mod-
ern vehicle to success "Up-to-the-
minute Merchandising."
Try your local merchant first.-
Iowa Falls Citizen.
IT IS DANGEROUS
TO PASS A LAW
For some unknown reason, con-
gress passes & law which forbids
selling certain kinds of war ma-
terials to belligerents. Why was
it passed in the first place? We
wouldn't know. Now we want to
get rid of that law and are having
a lot of trouble doing it. The best
thing congress could do would be
to repeal the entire law and be
guided by international law in our
relations with the nations at war.
That would be the same as of 1914.
We could nell for cash, f.o.b. At-
l~ntic seaboard. We could sell
to Germany or England and France
under that set-up. We did prior to
our entrance into the other "World
War," And we did not make en-
emies of England and France by
our meager sales to Germany.
When the German U-boat showed
up in New York harbor the com-
mander ~bought what supplies he
needed. U. S. warships kept Brit-
ish and French warships beyond
the three mile limit so the Ger-
man boat had a fair chance to
get away, which it did. We do not
need a new neutrality law. We
should junk the old one and deal
with each situation as it arises. The
more laws we pass, the more con-
fusion, the more danger of getting
into trouble.--Eagle Grove Eagle.
other language. An English psy-
chologist, Dr. Orgden, believes that
a total vocabulary of 850 words is:
sufficient for ordinary use.
Probably in the years to come,
the true contest will not be Eng-
lish vs other languages, but Eng-
lish vs the American language.
Englishmen have not been slow to
critisize idioms of the language
which are wholly American. How'-
ever, this slang version may con-
quer the stiff true English, for such
colloquialisms have their advant-
ages in descriptiveness, ,varletS',
and brevity. It is very possible
that in a few generations the
I Chinaman will feel quite natural
saying, "It's the nuts!"

7lie THINKER
I saw him there, the thinker,
In the study hall so quiet,
He did not move, hc did not stir.
He usually was a riot.
His face was le'~n and thoughtful,
His brow was knitted, grave,
His lips were still, forbidding,
But he always used to rave!
His head was resting oil his palm
So tired from study deep.
Behold the still deep-thinker,
In the study hall---asleep!
GOSSIP
Among those present at the
junior class party last Saturday
were Don Current and Mary Mac;
Bob Gill and Cynthia \Vinsor; Don
Minnick (one of the hosts) and
Jean Houstman; Don Horton (the
other genial host) and Louise E.
Dvorak; Ruth Minish and l)on
Ferguson; 1)on Merritt and bouise
M. Dvorak; and Marian Fisher and
Darwin Cook.
Jim Eyl'e has been going to Ce-
dar Rapids quite often lately.
Wonder who she is???
The junior class play seems to
be fostering a romance. Mary Mac
and Tuck walk home together
every night (but then, they do
both go home in the same direc-
tion)
Speaking of the play (and Mary
Mac), have you ever seen her do
the "l)umb Woman"? You should!
Watch Jean Houstman. She's
always taking flying leaps down
steps and making a "'perfect three
point landing" (on her nose.)
Sandy believes in being tirst in
line because he took Betty Cole to
the. show last Friday.
"And a good time was had by
all." You bet! Ardis' birthday
party was a real success. In fact
they didn't even want to go home,
so they just stayed and (lanced,
and danced, and--danced.
The old story goes something l
like this, "But gee. Morn, we had
a flat tire, that's why I'm late,
honest!" It really happened too,
and on Friday the thirteenth. Mar-
ian Fisher's toes froze, and Mr.
Fuller alnlost got lost and wouldn't
have gotten to West 1Aberty, but

man they arrived O.K. Allie
