How 1t Started
"BUCABOO"
By JEAN NEWTON

0D UGABOOi" one child says COM
- ing on another playfully from
behind. And then he has his bugaboo
or special fear with which one can
subdue him If he Is In recalcitrant
mood 1t may be that the sandman
will get him, or just the policeman on
the corner!
The term, however, is not limited to
the parlance Of children. 1t Is not I'M
common to read in newspapers, in Leg
islative reports, for example, that the
threat of certain action on the part of
one faction In politics was a mere
bugaboo held over the heads Of their
opponents.
The word is combination Of the In
terjection boo" with the now obso-
lete bug" meaning goblin or spec
ter. So 'bugaboo" is an imaginary
object of fear.

it would doubtless go down into the
