SOME LANGUAGE
Verily, we live to learn. We
have always supposed, in fact have
been told by oopy readers, city
editors and such-like pests who
filled the days of our cubdom with
gloom and despair, that we could
not “differ with" anyone, but must
use the term “differ from." Now
oomes The Washington Newspaper,
official organ of the School of Jour
nalism, University of Washington,
and uses “differ with" twice in one
issue—once in the editorial col
umns, supposed to he a model of
correct English,
What is the antonym of "differ?”
“Agree,” is it not? Then, if we
use the term "differ with," we must
also use the term "agree from,” for
"from" is certainly an antonym
of “with."
We expect next to see The
Washington Newspaper say “diff
erent to” and “arrive back.”
And how about the word ‘‘sim
ilar?” Should we say that some
thing is “similar from” another?
What a vista is opened up!
Among the important news items
of the day. featured by the so-cafl
ed news bureaus, is an account of
a six-months-old kid in Alabama
being baptized with water from
the River Jordan. The water had
been in a bottle for something like
a year. The effect on the audience
(whom we presume were not fur
nished with gas masks) when the
bottle of putrid aqua Jordan was
opened, is not told. Nor does the
dispatch describe the effect on the
kid when the parson soused thf
mess over its mug. However, the
importance to the world of the
bare details given is apparent.
No. 1, Vol. 1 of The Fur Farmer
Magazine, published in Seattle, is
at hand. The work is well printed
and attractively illustrated, and
the initial number carries an en
couraging amount of advertising.
The text is given to publication of
information of inte est. to fur far
mers, considerable space being de
voted to Alaska. The editor is
C. H. Barkdull.
During the year just past the
British Columbia provincial gov*
ernment has distributed to munic
ipalities more than $1,300,000 of
its liquor profits. It has net been
stated just what proportion of this
amount has been received from
Alaska. But of course it must be
small, for we are “bone dry."—Ju
