Let's .Talk It Over

A Prince County Viewpoint

If a Gallup poll were taken to determine the degree at literacy of our high school students, we lie- lieve the tabulated results might come as something of a shock. The proportion of pupils who mis- use such, simple words as their. there, to. too, of, oil. to mention only .a few, and who even start sentences with small letters is ap- pallingly high. Among most of these students the apostrophe is as extinct as the dodo. You don't have to take our word for it. Con- duct some sort ol test and mid out tor yourselves.

The reason tor this? Your guess may be as good as ours, but right now we are doing the guessing so please lend an ear. We think Eng- lish usage and composition is not being stressed enough in the early grades when speech and writing habits are lormed. This is not the fault of elementary teachers. Usually it is because there are too many by-ways and paths leading oil from the main highway which is English; too many side-lines stealing away time which should be devoted to the mother tongue.

Such things as manners and morals cannot be neglected. or course. but history. geography and! civics are all introduced too soon. It is a fine practice to read his- tory and geography stories to the. children of the middle grades but requiring them to learn history and geography facts tor written examinations is, weithink, a grave mistake. The time could be better taken up with English usage and English drill.

Once upon a time a barber's regular customer came into the shop and asked if he could get a quick shave as he had to keep an early appointment. The barber

"I guess you didn't hear me," he said at the risk of getting a mouth full cl soap; "I said I wanted a quick shave." "That's what you're get- ting,'.' the barber assured him, and surely enough the man was out oi the chair iully live minutes ahead or regular time.
