Don't Know Our
Own Vocabulary

PALo ALTO, Caiif.-The aver
age American can't guess within
80 per cent of the number OF words
he knows. Even linguists or psy-
biologists, trained in vocabulary
measurements, sometimes under
estimate their capacity by 10 to so
per cent.
Prof. Robert II. Seashore, OF
Northwestern university, m d e
these statistical comments to the
American Psychological associa-
ton. meeting at Stanford uniyer-
sity.
He said usual estimates of vo-
cabulary, based upon word-sample
tests, have been far wrong be-
cause they failed to use a sam
pling large enough to stretch the
limits of the average adult vocabu-
larry.
From his own studies, Prof. Sea-
shore said, he found the average
college student recognized about
157 900 words.

The scouts staying at the camp now arc living in tents, and hoping that no violent thunder storms will blow up on any Of these warm nights. There are eight tents for the scou and one Tor thHir leaders, and a mess tent, Then there Is two tents making up general headquarters for the stall, and two sleeping tents for them.
 At the waterfront, the equipment now consists of seven or eight boats a raft and tower, with pier un- der construction, and other projects to be carried out as time allows, The boys also have an athletic held which needs developing, but which is quite serviceable at present, as any of the sec its who are at the camp now will testify.

POSTAL REVENUE
 INCREASE NOTED
Upturn of General Busi. ness Conditions Here In.
 dicated By Report

An increase in the revenues of all postal divisions in the last fiscal year, ending June 30, brought the total revenues up to $542 2,088.l6, a gain of l8 per cent over those of the previous year, according to Post master Charl0s A. Babin. This was the second consecutive year in which the revenues have been more than half a million dollars. which fact seems to indicate the upturn Of general business conditions in Wa terbury.
 Receipts for this June helped the totals along by setting a record an all-time high for June, $44, ,726 .88, thus topping the high of $44,l46 set in June in 1880. It was also gain of $9,642 over June receipts in l938
 The 1938-39 gain began to be marked about Christmas time, when post-depress!on record was set. Since that time stamp and money order sales have been relatively high, and air mail poundage has been maintained at high level.
 Although no figures are obtain able on the subject, MT. Babin be- lieves that the policy of the local post office in catering to the needs and interests of philatelists in Wa terbury and the surrounding com- munities has done much to aid stamp sales in the past year.

Camp Mattatuck
New Boy Scouts Summer Rendezvous at Ply mouth Offers Great Possibilities When Fully Developed, Equipped for Hundreds of Youths.

However, the drought has not as yet caused the water level to sink very seriously. because of the large number of springs which drain into the pond, and because of the dam. At present the boys rely on spring water for drinking purposes. although It's hoped that eventually they will be able to pipe water In from the reservoir. If water can be obtained in this way, 1t will be easier for the camp to expand, and spread to some of the available sites which have not as yet been developed.
 The present staff of the camp consists of David r. Babson, sscout executives; Henry Donohue, assist ant scout executive, in charge of waterfront activities; Ivan Bun nell, a student at Buffalo univer- sity as health officer; Eagle Scout Chester Spiers, student at the University of Pennsylvania, as pro- visional scoutmaster; Norm Q n Smith, a student at Purdue Univcr- sity, also as provisional leader; Eagle Scout Robert Grant of Nau- gatuck, as quartermaster; and Nor- man Baril, star scout of troop l3, and Merton MacGrcgor of troop 2 as staff aides Each of the leaders Is allowed one day a week off from the duties of camp direction, and considering all the work there is to be done on every hand at the camp, they must be glad to get 1t
