SAYS CHILDREN HAVE
 BETTER VOCABULARY THAN THE GROWN-UPS

Sacramento. Cal. May ls.-Ten=year- old boys have better working voeab- ulary. slang aside. than their parents. and use a larger number of different words. The adult, however. conceals his inferiority behind a screen of tech nichal terms which he picks up as part of his job.
 This body blow to the long cherished theory that children must be addressed in simple language because they know no other was delivered today by the textbook committee of the state board of education in announcing its plans for a new spelling book.
 "A child in the elementary schools has a working vocabulary of from 5000 to 5000 words" explained Miss Anna Nicholson. who is to compile the new book. An adult has rather fewer words in his every day vocabulary, barring technical terms. which he learns to spell as he acquires them. A s0o0-word speller should meet the re- quirements of every day life"
 The spelier now in use contains about 15,000.
