ALMOST every English boy can be taught to write clearly,
so far at least as clearness depends upon the arrangement
of words. Force, elegance, and variety of style are more
difficult to teach, and far more difficult to learn; but clear
writing can be reduced to rules. To teach the art of
writing clearly is the main object of these Rules and
Exercises.

Ambiguity may arise, not only from bad arrangement!
but also from other causes from the misuse of singlq
words, and from confused thought. These causes are!
not removable by definite rules, and therefore, though
not neglected, are not prominently considered in this
book My object rather is to point out some few con-
tinually recurring causes of ambiguity, and to suggest
definite remedies in each case. Speeches in Parliament,
newspaper narratives and articles, and, above all, reso-
lutions at public meetings, furnish abundant instances of
obscurity arising from the monotonous neglect of some
dozen simple rules.
