Berne Conventionby Gustavus A.Iartrampf  \n# HOW THIS VOCABULARY-BUILDERWILL WORK FOR YOU\n\nTHE FAMOus English dictionary-maker,Dr.Samuel Johnson,was once taken totask by a user of his great book for the omission of several words which she deemedimportant.“I am really very much surprised,Doctor Johnson,\"she said.\"Whatevermade you omit those important words?\"\"Ignorance,Madam,sheer ignorance,\"was the reply of the learned doctor.  \nNowadays,with our tremendously improved facilities for self-education,thisdisarming reply would not suffice.We have at our disposal thousands uponthousands of reference tools which even the leading scholars of Dr.Johnson's daylacked.And one of the simplest and most effective ways for you to guarantee thatyou will have the right word at your fingertips at the right time is to make a dailypractice of using Hartrampf's VOCABULARY-BUILDER.  \nYou will find the method of using this book simplicity itself.Let us assumethat you are a motion-picture critic faced with the need for describing the newestand brightest performance of Hollywood's leading comedienne.You toy with suchadjectives as gay,laughable,entertaining and clever,but all of them lack freshnessand vigor.None of them has the punch that the actress'own performance had.  \nSo you turn to Hartrampf's VOCABULARY-BUILDER and look in theindex at the back of the book where you will find the following entry:  \nentertain 99A,48A,114,113·  \nTurn to section 99A,which can easily be found from the numbers at the topof every page,and there you will find dozens upon dozens of verbs,adjectives andnouns conveying every conceivable shade of meaning of the words entertain,enter-taining,and entertainment.Here,to describe your comedienne's performance,youwill find blithe,engaging,vivacious,droll,gladsome,joyous and many others.The picture itself may have elated,beguiled,or captivated you.And the sum totalof your reaction to the film was a mood of enchantment,fascination,or even:enthrallmert.  \nAnd all this,mind you,from looking in only one place,There is no need tosearch through hundreds of pages of a dictionary or similar reference book.Herein one place are all the synonyms and associative words you are ever likely to need.Should you find even these dozens of choices insufficient,you may wish to look upthe other sections referred to in the index under entertain—sections 48A,114,  \nand 113.In almost every instance,however,you will find more variations thanyou can possibly use in the very first section you turn to.  \nIn brief,the best and simplest way to use Hartrampf's VOCABULARY-BUILDER is this:  \n1.Find in the index at the back of the book the word for which you want asubstitute.  \n2.Note the section number following the word.  \n3.Turn back to this section in the front part of the book.There you will findthe right word to express your thought.  \nHere,then,is your new VOCABULARY-BUILDER.Use it daily and youwill find,almost before you know it,that you have gained real mastery over words.  \n# VOCABULARY:YOUR KEY TO SUCCESS\n\nBy ROSS McLAURY TAYLOR,Ph.D.  \nProfessor of English,University of WichitaAuthor of Brazos,The Saddle and the Plon,etc.  \nIF YOU HAVE EVER FELT the paralyzing.and strangling helplessness of hunting forthe right word when you need it the most,then you know the real value of a richvocabulary.There is no man on earth so alone as the one who is addressing a groupof associates and,at the moment of putting across an “idea”which may make thefuture for him,finds himself struggling hopelessly for the right word to convey thatidea.He is alone then;there is no one who can help
