Martin was released and left immediately for his home in Eikhart. o OUR QUEER LANGUAGE In a plea for greater consistency, a spelling reformer has called attention to a few of the many vagaries displayed- in English spelling and pronunciation. The sound, of long “a,’ for example. is represented in many different ways, as a in lady, ai in rains, eig in reign, ay in pay, ei in veil, ey in they, eye in obeyed, ea in great, oa in goal, au in gauge, ag in champagne, aig in campaign, aigh in straight, and ai in wait. Other sounds are represented by an almost equal variety .of spellings. Words pronounced alike have different meanings, such as right-rite-write-wright, to-two-too. oh-owe, and many <j‘hers. Words both spelled and pronounced alike may (mean entirely different things, such as row, bow, lead* sow. and so on. These peculiarities have to do merely with orthography. When the other innumerable inconsistencies of the language are considered, the wonder is that anyone ever learns to speak and write English correctly. As a matter of fact, hardly*anyone ever does.

FREIGHT RATES The existing freight rate structure, consisting o-f millions of individual rates, is generally condemned as the most complex, illogical and arbitrary sysiem in existence. These rates were arbitrarily established sometimes for < the explicit purpose of developing some favered communities and. producing regions at the expense of other. The nearest thing to consistency in these rates is the application of the sacred formula, “All that traffic will bear.” Their complexity is the source of endless litigation with millions of expense passed on to consumers to say nothing of the cost of maintaining traffic bureaus to check endless errors in billing. Fifteen years ago express rates were in the same condition. There were 900,000,000 separate
