Page:Book of record of the time capsule of cupaloy (New York World's fair, 1939).djvu/36



As a further aid to translation and pronunciation, we have enclosed in the Time Capsule reproductions of this simply worded fable in twenty-five languages. We follow, here, with the English vocabulary most used in 1938—the thousand words most essential to our daily speech and thought. Taking a suggestion from the electrical engineers, we have named the vocabulary "High-frequency English," We attach, also, two more illustrations, one showing an exterior view of 1938 life, the other an interior view, with common terms indicated.
