THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"scHooNER"

THE word "schoon," which
= came over with the Dutch
from Holland, was used for many
years In New York and In New
England as a term TO denote the
peculiar movement of stones or
fiat pebbles when skipped along
the water. and II is from this
that we derive the word "schoon-
er" as applied TO certain type
Of sailing vessel.
The first schooner ever con-
structed Is said to have been
built In Gloucester, Mass, about
1713, by Capt. Andrew Robinson.
The boat was laid out along
novel lines, In order 70 produce
a maximum OF speed and she nat
urnlly rested on the water. rather
than In II. Hardly had the sails
been set for the trial trip, than
a bystander cried out, "Oh look
how she scoons along !'-mean-
Ing that the craft hardly seemed
to touch the waves, bur skinned
along on the surface. Robinson
instantly replied: "a sooner
she is !" and, from that time to
this. vessels thus masted and
rigged have gone by this name,
though an "h" has been insert
ed as the third letter.
The use Of the same word in
ante-prohlbItlon days TO deslg-
nate large glass OF beer Is
more difficult 10 trace, but II
probably had Its origin In the
foam on the top of the giass-a
substance which appeared to be
analogous to the whlte-caps of
the ocean, for certainly no one
would try to 'scoon" a "schoon-
er OF beer" over the waterl

You Auto Know

That in the case of a skid
particularly one caused by the
slipping of the rear wheels,
rather than the front ones-the
worst possible thing to do Is to
apply the brakes. The amateur
drivers first impulse when any
thing unforeseen happens is to
press down hard with both feet,
dlsengaging the clutch and at the
same time applying the full
force of the foot-brake. This
double action upon the rear
wheel only accentgates the skid
and, causes him to have far less
control OF his car than II he had
kept his feet OFF either pedal.
The best course to take Is to
allow the car 20 coast, at the
same time attempting to steer
the car in the same direction In
which the rear end of the car is
sklddlng. Then, II It is impera-
tive that the car be stopped to
avold.a collision, press the foot
brake slowly and the car yjll
respond almost instantly. The
best possible preventive Of skid
ding, however, is care In driving
and a refusal TO take chances on
wet pavements, especially when
turning a corner.

tablespoonfuls OF vinegar, adding the
vinegar a few drops nj time until
the mixture Is very thick. then oil and
