"Tako tho subject ot lettcr-wrltlngA It Is tho most generally practised, and, practi cally considered, tho most Important of ( all kinds ot composition. It is Indlcpcnsablo In business. To bo ablo to wrlto n good letter Is greatly to a person's ndvantnga In any occupation. Mnny excellent situa tions aro obtained by teachers, clerks and others on account ot this ability, and quite as many aro lost through tho want ot It. I heard tho professor ot English In the Uni versity of Nobraska a tew years ago criti cise very severely tho lottcr-wrlttng of high school graduates as Indicated by tho otters written by them to tho university. 'A mora, thorough study ot English Is Imperative. It, It bo true that 'all tho ac quisitions" ot the human raco, all sciences, add arts, nnd histories, and sentiments' ot hutnalty havo passed Into tllo English tongue,' I may not bo thought a dangerous agitator when I say that I consider It a blunder of judgment to cling to that stub born vanity of our system of education which pushes our young men and young women into LaJIn and Greek beforo they know anything of tho 'lofty thoughts and beautiful Imagery of Longfellow;' beforo they have nny knowledges ot tho 'chasta humor nnd gentlo satlro ot Holmes;' beforo thoy havo any understanding of tho 'pro found yet slmpls philosophy of Emerson;' before they havo felt any Interest In tho Intense earnestness of Whlttler; beforo tholr minds havo received any enlightenment and tholr tasto nny improvement from tho 'thorough, yet genial, scholarship of Low ell;' ayo, beforo thoy aro on speaking torms with that nrlnco of dramatists, that chief of poets, William Shakespeare. 'Onco, it Is true, tho roll ot human grfatucbs read thus: Homer, Hcsold, Aeschylus, Euripides, fcrlclos, Plato, Virgil, Clcoro, Caesar, and tho splendor of tho cataloguo nono will havo tho rashness to deny; but Into tho Intel lectual world carao a wonderful company of modern princes a Newton equaling a Plato, and a Shakespeare balancing all antiquity.' , Wasted Time. "It Is a reckless uso of time to havo so many of our young men nnd young women staggering along In Latin, and sometimes In Orook, when they cannot dispose of a stmplo sentonco In English; hobbling nlong In the dark on Latin and Qreelc crutches. striving tor (wo ways of stating ono Idea, when thoy ought to bo searching fqr tvio Ideas and the power to express them Iu tho naive simplicity of their mother tonguo, "The poor man, In tho cold of mid winter," docs not.nocd ten shovels with which to put and ton ot coal Into tho scuttlo, but what ho craves Is ten tons of coal nnd ono good shovel. If tho remark will not glvo any offense, It may bo lot fall hero, that thero aro thousands ot boys and girls, older and younger, whoso ability to ox- press thought has qulto outgrown the thought thoy havo on band awaiting ex pression, and, having mastered a Vreat many styles of saying things, thoy find themselves In tjie position of having notb Ing to say. The Importance of grammatical analysis in the study of English can hardly be over stated. Prof. William D. Whitney of Ynlo university, and editor-in-chief of tho Cen tury Dictionary, says: 'Olvo mo a, man who can, with full Intelligence, take to pieces an English sentonce, brief and, not too complicated, even, and J will wolcomo hlra as hotter prepared for further study In other languages than It he had read both Caesar and .Virgil, and could parso them In tho routlno stylo In which thoy aro often parsed.'

To a Nebraska boy, James Albort Sherman Edwnrds of Fremont, belong tho honor of being tho first to suggest a plan to bring every child attending the schools In the United States Into closo touch with tho' effort to raise n monument to tho memory of our lato president. Tho Hon. ltycrson Ritchie, sec retary of tho McKlnley Memorial associa tion, In n lottcr to tho Hon. E. Itoscwatcr, secretary and treasurer of tho McKlnley memorial fund for Nebraska, sets foyth Bomo very practical suggestions as to the manner of taking theso contributions: CLEVELAND, Dec. 11. Hon. E. Jtoso-. wnter, Omaha. Dear Sir: Senator Fair banks hns referred to mo' your letter to him oSDeccmber 1, with n copy of a letter from a lad m Fremont, Neb., suggesting 1 cent subscriptions from tho school chil dren ot tho United States. While tho sug gestion mudo by Master Edwards Is an cx- collcnt one; lvt Is vory difficult to carry out, and tho contribution of 1 cent Is not much of a sacrifice for tho purposo such as the erection of n tomb at tho grnvo our- lato president. Of course, tho contribution of cent would bo a liberal offering from children of poor parentage and would bo as' gfadly ac'ccptcd as fl from children ot wealthy people Nevertheless, tho cxpenso Involved In bringing about organization of tho riphool children nmong 75,000,000 of pco plo Is such that tho result would not prob ably warrant tho expense A G-ccnt sub scription has been started In sovernl ot tho stntcs and oven that Is burdensomo to handlo. A better suggestion hns been if ado by Mrs.. Buchanan of Washington to Presi dent Roosevelt. It Is that each class In tho sovcral schoolB throughout tho ontlro coun try make Its contribution In such a way that credit will bo given tho class and no distinction Is made. " 'Superintendent Jones of this city has adopted a plan which Is vory good, that of giving to each boy and girl, an envelope upon which thoy aro to wrlto their name and address and enclose their contribu tion, whethor 1 cent or $1. This method avoids tho humiliation ot tho poorer chil dren nnd makes tho contribution very ex pressive ot tho interest ot tho school chil dren. ' , " 'Tho reports submlttod to- tho trustcos from nil sections of tho country woro In deed very gratifying. Your Intorcst In this work In your city nnd stato Is highly ap preciated.. We aro doing our best to nsslst tho work of tho 'several local and stato auxiliary committees throughout the coun try and If, I can bo of nny sorvlco to you do nqt hesltato to cftTl upon me. " 'Respectfully yours, " 'RYERSON RITCHIE, Secretary.' "This causo has my hearty endorsement. All collections should bo transmitted di rectly to Hon. E. Rosowater, Omaha, sec retary and, trcasuror of tho McKlnley me morial fund for Nebraska. It Is urged that theso contributions be taken not later than January 29, 1902, It seems to mo that this date, tho flfty-nfnth" anniversary of tho birth of our late president, would bo a fitting time for concerted nctlon among the schools ot our stato for tho purpose of aiding this movement.
