I aint noticed. Been too busy shining!' t Johnny Can't Read? Parents Cant Spoil r Dear Johnny: MAYBE YOUVE noticed that recently theres been quite a lot in the paper about whether you can or cant read. Between your baseball, and your swimming, and your fishing, and all your other important vacation business, I doubt that youve read very much about, or lost too much sleep over, the argument between Dr. Flesch, who on his side wants you to have pure systematic phonics, and Dr. Swenson (who answered Felsch) who, on her side, thinks you do all right with the look and say method of learning to read. But whether or not you can read as folk say you should, and whether or not you have been much, or not at all, annoyed by all the fuss and feathers Dr. Flesch stirred up, I want you to know, Johnny, that Im on your side. And because thats true, I think I ought to tell you just between the two of us something Ive found out. Its this: A lot of grownups dipped into the argument between Dr. Flesch and Dr. Swenson. Theyve written me quite a lot of letters to be put in the paper. In editing those letters, Ive found on that a considerable number of both parents and teachers both sides of the arguments arent any hotter with their spelling than some of them think you are, Johnny, with your read-- ' ing. Can you imagine one teacher (27 years experience, she wrote) spelling differentiate with one f? and another (first for separately. seperately grade, she said) wrote One Johnnys Mom puts two ls in "personality, and another Johnny's Dad left out the second n in beginning. for all right, and, of all Quite a number wrote alright things, Johnny, one Pop wrote Forth Grade. Another spelled uncertain wrong. He wrote uncerten. Recommendation tripped up several. They put two cs and only one "m. Apparent tricked one teacher, Apparent, she wrote. And one Johnnys Mama wrote incidentiy for incidentally. There also was one very nice letter in which a mother referred to back streets not as alleys, but as allies, meaning something wholly different from what she intended to say. Of all of them, however, the worst tangled up of the bad spellers was a teacher who in two places in her letter wrote independ-edl- y where obviously she meant "independently. Probably there were other misspellings Ive overlooked in writing to you, Johnny, but I think what Ive written you will be enough to serve the purpose I have in mind. Just remember that words can be tricky for most anybody. Nobody knows that better than an editor. So dont you be too much bothered about the mistakes you make, Johnny. And if any grownups get to riding you too hard about your reading, fellow, just show them this letter, smile sweetly, and ask them how theyre getting along with their spelling. yours, Understanding The Editor (From the Birmingham Ala.
