SPELLING BEES SHOW
WORDS THAT ARE HARD
tBy Associated Press.)

Washington, Sept. 21.-Those who
consider themselves expert spoilers
may be interested in the result of a
series of old fashioned spelling bees
held in a popular summer resort Of
North Carolina to determine the words
which are most difficult for the per-
son of average education to spell.
BY almost unanimous consent,
"eleemosynary' was given the stellar
position, 81 per cent of the contestants
meeting disaster upon one or another
of the essential vowels. "Connoisseur"
wrecked the ambitions of all except
those who could be classified under
that term itself: "fuchiia' was third
in terms of difficulty, being followed
in order by tranquility" "fricassee,"
CONSENSUS" supercede," question
naire' and periphery"
Separate" long in disgrace as the
most easily misspelled word in the
ordinary vocabulary caused little
trouble in this particular circle; and
despite the spread of the neomystic
cult, "ouija' was familiar to only so
per cent. The MS and one in Gin
cinnati still keep it in the general
class of "saccalaureate-"
