+62.  Language Adapted to the Reader.+—­A writer may select a subject with reference to the knowledge and interest of his readers; he may develop his paragraphs in accordance with the methods studied in Chapter III, and yet he may fail to make his meaning clear, because he has not used language suited to the reader.  Fortunately, the language that we understand and use is that which is most easily understood by those of equal attainments with ourselves.  It therefore happens that when writing for those of our own age and attainments, or for those of higher attainments, we usually best express for them that which we make most clear and pleasing to ourselves.  But if we write for younger people, or for those of different interests in life, we must give much attention to adapting what we write to our readers.  Before writing it is well to ask, For whom am I writing?  Then, if necessary, you should modify your language so that it will be adapted to your readers.  Can you tell for what kind of an audience each of the following is intended?

In the field both teams played faultless ball, not the semblance of an error being made.  Besides backing up their pitchers in this fashion, both local and visiting athletes turned sensational plays.

The element of luck figured largely in the result.  In the first inning Dougherty walked and Collins singled.  Dougherty had third base sure on the drive, but stumbled and fell down between second and third, and he was an easy out.

Boston got its only run in the second.  Parent sent the ball to extreme left for two bases.  He stole third nattily when catcher Sugden tried to catch him napping at the middle station.  Ferris scored him with a drive to left.  St. Louis promptly tied the score in its half.  Wallace opened with a screeching triple to the bulletin board.  At that he would not have scored if J. Stahl had not contributed a passed ball, Heidrick, Friel, and Sugden, the next three batters, expiring on weak infield taps.  The Browns got the winning run in the sixth on Martin’s triple and Hill’s swift cut back of first.  Lachance knocked the ball down and got his man at the initial sack, but could not prevent the tally.
