Aurora Dawn Has any of you enough of an ear for English to realise what
a crime against the language is that (trade) name? Aurora is the dawn. The redundancy should assail your ears like the shrick of a bad hinge. But you are so numbed by habit that it conveys no offence. So it is with all you barbarities. Shakespeare used the thyming of double and bubble' to create two immortal lines in Macbeth. You use it to help sell your Dubl-Buhl Shampoo, and you have no slightest sense of doing anything wrong. Should someone tell you that language is the Promethean fire that lifts man above the animals and that you are smothering the flame in mud, you would stare. You are staring Let me tell you without images, then that you are cheapening speech until it is ceasing to be an honest method of exchange, and that the people, not knowing that the English in a radio commercial is meant to be a lie and the English in the President's speech which follows, a truth, will in the end full into a paralysing scepticism in which all utterance will be disbelieved.
