Chaiiel Kill, July IS.—It takes the
iiverajre Italian chC’.d 1,200 hours to
Uara to spell; the Gorman child 1,J500
an American child 2.300 hours.
Dr. Ivl. K, Fijrton, i^rofessor of £n^~
Uyh at Davidson College, and speaker
from the Simplified Spelling Board
oH New York, gives the above figures
as his chief rea^son for advocating
cimpUfied spelling. He addressed the
Summer-School Saturday night on the
iibovc subject. The ohaotic and illog
ical rules of spelling so bewilder tho
child that it takes it twice too much
time to learn the fundiinie«tals ot' ed
ucation. Dr. Fulton stated that the
Board proposed 300 logical changes in
spelling, and that they are workin:^
for a reform in spelling and riot a re
form of spelling, and liiat oj)position
t -} this move is mere prejudice and in
ertia of custom. Already thirty col-
and nine state iegislutures have
endorsed the move, and s’.ah publica-
?i:/nb as Current Opinion, Literary Di
gest, and The Indeije»'dcr.'t, use tho
itimpllfied words. No radical chanpres
avG made. Typicol chanfrc.- are thiu
