The Increase of Words.
Charlotte News.
Os the making of words, as it was
and is with the making of books there
is no end.
The dictionary that we resort to in
these times contains nearly 150,000
i words.
The vocabulary ;s expanding in
proportion as knowledge increases,
and we are discovering things so rni>-
idly and making intellectual progress
so rapidly that the covers of the dic
tionaries continue to get wider apart
:trying to keep up with what has come
to be generally known.
Dr. Frank 11. Vixetelly, managing
editor of Funk & Wagnalls new
standard dictionary, says that the well
schooled lawyer, minister or physi
cian has a vocabulary exceeding that
commonly attributed to Shakespeare.
The poet's vocabulary included 23,-
000 words. Dr. Zizcteily says, while
the highly trained professional man
must know 25.000 or more, the aver
age business man gets along on 10.00
or less.
Woodrow Wilson in three of his
books used .60.060 distinct terms, but
in the first seventy-five speeches he
made after becoming president he used
only 7.000. The average individual i
not specially educated knows from s
3.000 to 10.000.
Wonderful things are words with
which to work and play. Some men ,
pack their words full of rich freight.
Some use words as artists use colors. •
Others fill them with carbonic acid j
gas which results in much sizzing and
hissing and fizzing. Some men trail
words behind them as a locomotive <
pulls a long train of empties. Others ■
use many words to conceal their laek
of ideas. Some folks use words as
camouflage, to hide their intention, >
to, conceal tbeir cowardince, to con
fuse the listeners. And some men
nre to be found, for example in the
United States Senate who are word
fountains and from them rivers at
verbiage flow on forever and forever.
France’s Feeling for America.
Dearborn Weekly.
The man from France dropped into
the office: "We arc very badly thought
of over there,” said he. “Not that
we should worry much. France must
come to her senses in a number of
matters, and the United States is one
of the. But those who are guilty of
breeding French hatred against a
friendly nation bear an awful respon
sibility. And they are the French
politicians. Caillaux is particularly
vicious in this respect. He represents
to Franco that he came over here, laid
his cards on the table (which of course
he didn't! and was kicked out of the
door. Thr* situation now is such
that American residents in French
cities tell me that their children come
home from school every day battered
up by rtte hostile young Frenchmen,
and the authorities will not interfere.
I myself saw evidence of this. Chil
dren of Americans in some parts of
France are terrorized out of the
schools altogether.
"The hatred of Americans, howev
er. is not so great as the hatred of
the British. The feeling against us
will wear off in time, but the feeling
against the British ia of long stand
ing.
“From what I saw, I could not
draw the conclusion that we should
change our course to win French ap
proval. The conclusion I drew waa
this—every American attempt at
mingling in the affairs of Europe
simply makes us a party to one side
or the ottaqr of European quarrels.
We can’t do anything without getting
into all of the innumerable interna
tional dog-fights in progress oyer
there. We do beet w)ien we keep
out: I mean tb keep ourselves in. a
better position to be of help to Sn
hope. Going in now, nnder my pre
text, simply diminishes our influence.”
' The Cheaper Way.
A man, well noted for his tight
fisted qualities, had his arm badly in
jured in a corn shredder. “Say doc”
he inquired ofthe physician who bad
been called to dress it, “will I have
to loee the arm!"
“Ye*. Dave,” replied the doctor,
‘l'm afraid it will have to come off.”
“Humph!” wasthe unemotional re
i ply. “It’d been cheaper to let the
shredder have it.” ’ -T J

New Year’*.
By M. B. Dunn
Christmas has already "passed
New Tears has come at last,
We should all be gay
On this glad new year's day.
All of the new yenr bells are ringing.
All of the children of the land are
singing.
They are all so gay and free,
Every one is filled with glee.
Sparking world nnd shining sky,
Sleigh bells all go jingling by,
Days that swiftly come and go
While the ground is covered with
snow.
The New Year.
By Ellen Fetguson
This is new years' day
And we must all start a new way.
The snow is falling fast.
But our foods will all last.
Let us new resolutions make.
That we may not steal or take.
Make this year good and fair
And see that you are always square.
This old year haa rolled around
Now to another year we’re bound.
Let us make this better than the last
So that we'll never regret the past.
The Messenger.
By Leonard Gillon
We Btnrted our school paper as a
means of creating greater interest in
our school work, especially in English.
We enjoy writing different kinds of
articles, and also seeing them in print.
Every one would rather see his com
position in a school paper than in a
waste basket. We have taken a
special interest in poems and dial
ogues. It also gives us some class
spirit.
We hope that we shall be able to
carry on this work next year without
the help of teachers as this is a very
essential part of a high school course.
