MAKING A pIcTIoNARY.
The Colossal Task Of Selecting the
Words 70 Be Used.

The Colossal Task Of Selecting the
Words TO Be Used.
one Of the men who complied a big
dictionary talks as follows about the
way the work was done.
From the largest dictionary of the
language all the words were diligently
copied, and then each Of the smaller
dictionaries was checked of In turn
against this growing list When the
dictionaries had been thus exhausted
all the living authors Of works that
had an undoubted standard value were
secured to contribute from their works
such words as they had used that were
not found in the general dictionaries.
In addition TO this. the services of
about 500 readers were utilized. among
whom was distributed all the standard
literature from Chaucer to the present
time. These readers were instructed
to report such words as sceiucd to be
new and not found in the ordinary die.
tionaries and to locate them 10y page
and line that they might be inspected,
each IN its own context. For this pur-
pose prepared blanks were furnished
Specialists in various trades. arts and
professions were also invited to send
such words belonging to the technique
of their vocabularies as might be IA
miliar to them. but which were not in
general use, and so had not found their
way into the dictionaries.
II will be seen that the collection OF
a vocabulary on such plan. though
there were many helpers, was n long
and laborious task. involving great
amount Of correspondence which cx-
tended literally all over the world
AddeG TO this was the nearly appalling
task s.. editorial ald clerical work,
merely to slft and organize these CON
trlbutions. II Is not TO be imagined
that words SO gathered could or should
be all included. An organized STAFF Of
editors and philologists was required,
who passed upon the eligibility of ea7h
word.
The conservative care exercised in
determining the scope and limits Of a
vocabulary can be Inferred from the
fact that in one Of these offices. after
"dragnet" had gathered over 100000
words. more than 100000 were finally
rejected. These included words that

considerable slang language and many
technical terms that had good reasons
against them. The fixing Of a date be-
fore which words should be excluded,
except on certain conditions. resulted
In throwing out many.
When words have been selected for q
dictionary, several distinct things must
be done with them. They must be di.
vided into their proper sylables, and
the right syllables must be supplied
with accents. They must be pro
nounced by the use OF certain arbitrary
signs used I'm a rGspelling Of tdem to
Indicate the powers of the letters they
contain They must be defined in all
the senses iu which they have actually
been found used In literature. In tho

its etymology must be given.-ChicagC
