Reform in speq in o We are very srrv that what we h-d Intended-as a piece of' pleasanitry and a joke upon the spelling refrmers hasP been construed into a Ounr upon soel of our friends of the Suith Caroina Press. The renmrark of tL. Craia(in Joutinol Compel us to pay the p al1y, Wfequen tly..impotcd upon;i wonki11-bJe wite, of explainiing our o wn jke. We had just received a copy of the proceedings of the last annual meeting . o the National Teachers' Association, hoki at. Chautauqua, in which was con tailed also a report of the conven1(i of spelling reformers. The i ues pu b Ui hed inl this paper were giveni by the convention in all seriousn.. mn:d a number of the leading airticles rea'l by dilstinguished teachers were published in this "reformed spellli." In order to better acquaint our rcadrs with these proposed clanges, we vrote in editorial in this new orthography, and then, quoting a burlesque resolution of the Missouri Press Associationl, th.A "we will aid and eneurej wun aunt her to begin and mak such grajial cl.anjez In speling as ar recommended bi the Americau Filological Asoshinshuin," we expressed a determination to adopt the now spelling and to go the "hole ihog," and then we called on several contemporaries to join tus and "kwit kwarrellng and lern how tu spel." We had no thought but that. this would be construed into an invitation to drop the present system of orthography and learn to use the reform spelling. It was 10 imputation as to their want of acquaintance with the old blue back spelling book. . -we pronounced ourselves arid our con temp)oraries ignorant ; and we tbelieveI that the~y will frankly plead guilty to thme charge. It Is taken from ani essay *oni spelling road by Mr. W. Q. Ballan tynle, professer of Hebrew in Oberlin - College, and illing four pages of' the: volume above referred to. It is as fol 111 , . lows, verbatim and lNteratim: "I dlu not think it onght tu recwi re half-an-hour tu conivins~ eni colel mu that our prezent spelling doez no't teac h or sujeat etimoligi tu ncspthz and tu them ouiin anm uterii inconmsist ent, haphazard and iragmho enrimfsh ion." 2 '1'The learned profex'or is in deadc earniest and he throws whole chunkls of1 such reformz at the heads of Webjsteri and Worcesterian spellers.
