VOCABULARY DOUBLED
IN LAST TEN YEARS

Commenting on the number of new
words included i'll the revised dlctlona-
ries, Life says:
1t is well, of course, that all words
employed by our foremost writers should
find Judgment in the lexicon. Henry
James, we are reminded by an esSaylst,
is by turns as ''precous as Walter
Pater and as democratic as Chlmmle
Fadden Q. IIenry's cowboys speak
strange language that we would Will
lngly learn. Doubtless il IS well that
in the decennial roundup the compllers
of the dictionary should be thorough,
comprehensive and hospitable.
But may there not be such thing as
an overproduction of words? In 1873
Noah Webster tally was meager
10000 A notable advance was marked
IN 1864, when the - nabridged' re
corded 1l4,OOO. In 1900 the editors OF
the International, observing perhaps
that political speakers and others were
wearing out great many OF the old
words, printed an edition containing
20O.0 900. And still the language grew
It was a pretty good language IN the
DAYS of Swift and Addison and Keats,
and il answered their simple require
ments. Think, then, of what 1t has be-
come in our own times. We have been
making discoveries and inventions and
all kinds of progress, but chiefly, it
would seem, we have been making
words. For in the ten years of this
century we have doubled our vocabu-
larry; there are 100000 words in Web
ster's dictionary, recently revised.
1t is intended, SO We learn, as a
handbook for the common man, wom-
an and child as they read their news
paper, book of travel or novel" The
uncommon people should profit by it.,
too. We like to think that Noah Web
ster is not only household word, but
400 900 of them.
