RAINING the tongues of subway and elevated guards, as urged by Joseph Johnson, chief of the Public Serviee Commission's ‘Transit Bureau, is not so certain to overcome the “mixed ver- naculars and brogues” which make it hard for passengers to recognise the names of their stations. Some famous masters of English, with every help of education and “high society,” never shook off their native dialects, Carlyle talked with a marked burr. Burke had a brogue, Samuel Johnson gave certain words a twist that puzzled Boswell, ‘The late King Ed- ward spoke English with a German accent. Why expect 6o much of @eubway guard? If the pronunciation of subway and clevated stations needs to be standardized, a better way would be to put powerful talking machines along the platforms to shout the name of the stop as long as the train halts: One silver-tongued elocutionist on the job could keep the ma- chines on every route constantly loaded with the King’s best English.
