The Children's Vocabulary.

We teach our children to eat nicely. to
walk gracefully. and to dress themselves
neatly. and all the rest Of It. but very
few Of us take the trouble to teach them
how to talk in an interesting way. though
the art Of entertaining conversation Is As
valuable an art as ono can possess, says
the Camden Daily Courier
II you listen to the ordinary gossip in
an average family you will notice that
the children use the same set Of words
again and again. They have half dozen
adjectives with which they sprinkle their
conversation and they help out their lack
Of expression by such tags as "Oh. well.
you know what I mean" or 1T was
sort of what-do-you-call-it'' and 50 on.
1t is pity to allow such slovenly hab-
its Of speech to be formed. Even when
the accent and grammar are quite good.
the children's speech is often very unin-
teresting just because of tho thoughtless
style of expression used.
When a glaringly unsuitable word is
used take a chance of speaking about it
and suggesting better one. There will
be no need to nag at the children on
such points as these. They will be only
too glad to learn If they have tho chance.
for most little ones are instinctively at
tracted by the mere sound of fine words.
