Excerpt from The Urdu Teacher Acquiring a knowledge of a foreign language is beyond doubt a long and arduous study, but to the intelligent, observant student it ought to be at least one of the most interesting, for it cannot be denied that knowledge of any one lan guage means an intimate knowledge of the people speaking that language. Are there any more interesting peoples than your Aryan brethren of to-day, scions of that great and common ancestor who tn the dim unrecorded long ago strode as conquering hero where you now stand, as the, representatives of the greatest sovereign that ever held sway Over India P What a vista is opened up when we think of what has happened between then and now You can take it that every Englishman speaking the Vernacular, forcibly reminds the Native of India of thatcommon Origin, helps him to welcome as a blessing the return of the Elder Brother after his long sojourn in the West, and mme than anything I know of, serves to foster respect on both sides. With all its faults, I hope my little work Will assist you in obtaining a knowledge of this great Vernacular.
