the language of the future c villalobos domlnguez it would be foolish to suppose that the babel ot languages which now stands in the way of easy communica tion between the peoples ol this tiny world will continue for very many years more than 3000 languages now exist but the complicated systems of intercommunication are bringing men all over tho world closer together both materially and spiritually the differenco in modes of living aud thinking between the inhabitants of different countries is inevitably dimin ishing i do not believe that an artiflcial language will come to be adopted tho principal thing against it is that absurd sensation felt by anyone who finds himself speaking a manufac tured language i believe that a world language will be adopted not by treaty or agreement but as a re sult of natural forces some lang uages are steadily losing ground others are growing sooner or later ono of theso latter wll gain such an advantago over the others that it will monopolize the field already tho potentialities of the various languages are clear enough to enablo us to namo those which are likely to bo contenders in tho coming struggle for one thing all languages foreign to occidental culture are auto matically excluded no matter how many people may bo speaking them today for occidental culture is spreading irresistibly even into the orient and a civilization of occiden tal origin cannot hope to find its ex pression in an oriental language turningto those languages which are truly occidental i seo no reason to expect any expansion of german french italian danish and the other languages which are spoken by rela tively small areas i therefore arrive at the conclusion as others have be fore me that only english and span ish have any likelihood of evercoming the others in the struggle both eng- lisn and spanish have the advantage over all others in that they are spoken over very largo and scattered terri tories which are not only well popu lated today but give evidence of rapid growth in populations only a blind man could fall to see the great progress that tho english language and culture have mado in tho americas the english race has not only grown strong roots in north and south america but as is well known it has spread over the world into more places than any other and has even rooted itself in places like australia and unlike the abortive shoot- which the french language sent out in canada english is continuing to spread even in a country like japan it is difficult to find a boy or glrlwhodoes not understand at least a little english and in the larger cities there are more copies of newspapers printed in english than in japanese i do not believe it possible that in the long run spanish can successfully compete against english if the span ish people had kept in tho vanguard wich ont suffered from anaemia for over three years though faking medicine all that time nothing helped her till she began dr

products of scien tific technical and political research it cannot export tho words with which theso things are expressed a span ishspeaking person who wishes to in vestigate any field of knowledge must necossarlly turn to a foreign language barely do spanish terms appear in scientific or technical works everything points to tho ultimate predominance of english the mo tion picture for instance

so buckingham palacebabys own tablets banks reflect the socialist journal the clarion gives interesting insight into the london home of the soverign little cheer george lansbury has been so sweet in preparing the surprise for tho prime minister of a newly paint ed residence that he might now turn his attention towards buckingham palace there can be no more ram shackle a residence for a ruling mon arch than buckingham palace to day its a case of ajl that glitters not being gold for apart from that mas sive monument to the monstrosities of the victorian age at its gates which acts as an excuse for a traffic round about all that the public sees of buck ingham palace is grossly misleading behind that more or less dignified front lies a dilapidated palace which superficially appears to be crumbling with disrepair from tho gardens of tho palace tho building is ugly and illproportion ed and the tops of its walls are strewn with hideous balustrades and statues which impart a mournful air to this survival of a gorgeous age and inside well being invited only to viow the kings picture gallery i saw in addition merely innumerable corridors and staircases all spacious ly planned cod and uninviting lugu brious heavy dustcollecting mate rials hang from the casements and tho carpets on the floor are of tho inevitable royal red the furniture well queen victoria must have fur nished the palace the king has a superb collection of pictures though it is a pity no one has ever hung them correctly the gallery walls are packed with many ofthe finest examples of the dutch school from rembrandt to vermeer and steen to hobbemma but many cannot be seen without periscopes or step ladders one interesting thing about this collection is that the royal taste has apparently been for domes tic scenes in preference to portraits to pictures of everyday life of the peasants for town workers rather than for royal personages or gentle men of high estate in the stately homes of england pictures of royalty and regal scenes always predominate but here apart from tho necessary ancestral portraits on the staircases and in the corridors domestic scenes abound is it that even in our taste for pictures we be tray our desire to escape from what we are does the adolescent crowd his walls with pictures of sparsely clad chorus girls for tho same reason as monarchs fill their rooms with pic tures of dutch interiors where dogs and chickens take pot luck with the family i think the king is badly treated if we must have a king dont let us be so stingy about it let bucking ham palace bo

comes of all the leaves that fall from the many many trees in our city es pecially in public playgrounds and in parks when you playfully scuff through tho gutters and run along the sidewalks and hear the swishswish of tho crisp manycolored leaves havo you ever thought that they may be used for a useful purpose in most large cities and towns all tho leaves in the gutters and parks are gathered every day by tho park department men and are used to cover the bulbs they plant during tho winter and also as a substance for potting plants they are not burnt and thrown in the dumps as most of you have probably thought every morning in the fall of the year you may see a number of men with largo rakes out in the streets raking up the leaves into large piles and how do they pick them up well they are provided with a special de vice which consists of two poles con nected by some heavy material like a meal bag they just lay this on top of the pile and scoop them up all in a jiffy and put them into large wagons with deep bottoms aud extension wings the leaves aro so light that the wagons are filled in two or threo minutes but where do the store so many of them arid why and how as you know there are many foun tains and ponds in the parks and each fall these are drained dry this is an excellent place to store them and they are weighted down and also wet this work takes place from day to day until the trees are bareabout nov 30 when tho leaves aro all gathered they are wet down again and left un til they are ready to bo used for fer tilizing then they aro taken from their storehouses

greatest efforts of the cooperative genius of our common wealth we must approach it in no mean selfish or partisan spirit co operation and organization not dicta tion must be tho keynote of this supereconomic organization there must be no suggestion of exploitation of imperial resources or of domineer ing over our lesseducated fellowsin the vast undeveloped regions of in dia or africa there is need to ap proach this new task with all the fervour and sincerity as if we were at war not with a foreign foe but with primitive nature for the right to allow the children of men to pro duce the things by which alone they might have life more abundantly im perial organization and development viewed from this angle takes upon itself the guise of a great and pas sionate adventure it is the
