A plea to n conference of several hundred teachers from various parts of the United States to carry an a battle in the schools for the teaching of pure English and clearer diction was made recently by Cecil B. de Mille, the noted film director.
He deplored the deterioration of the language into string of
vowels, where the word "yes," for instance, becomes "yenh,' The director gave as his reason for this plen the fact that Hollywood is sadly-in-need-of-competent netors but has had to turn to England time and again to find artists who could speak clearly and distinctly,

CRIME OR HOAX?
DISMEMBERED LEGS MYSTERY
SPILSBURY'S BLOOD TESTS
London. Scantland Yard-is-faced with a baffling problem in their investiga- tions into the discovery of a pair of dismembered legs in a railway carriage at Waterloo Station last .month.
Although hundreds of detectives have been making inquiries all over London nothing has emerged which can help the police to arrive at a definite conclusion as to whether it is a case of murder or a grim hoax.
It can be stated defnitely that so for no material, evidence has hnen found to support the theory of murder.
The discovery of stained gloves and cotton wool in trains may or may not prove useful.
In the meantime the polleo are hoping that the detailed medical examinations which have taken plach may prove of value. The full result of those examinations, how- ever, will not be known for some dinys.
More than in any other mystery of recent times does the respon- sibility for a decision as to whether this is a hoax or crime rest on the conclusions reached by Sir Ber- 'nard Splisbury,
One of the main points, which Sir Bernard is expected to estab lish, is whether the man, from whose body the lega were sovered, was normally healthy person. With this end in view, Sir Bernard is to conduct a test of the blood taken from. the legs and also a special examination of the, texture of the skin..
It is understood that his pre- minary examination led him to the opinion that the legs had been severed some twenty hours before discovery from a person who had been dead for three or four days.
