moment OF bluShing confusion, when
junior rushes In from school and
says with Joyful malice prepense
that he knows q sentence you can't
write down on paper. The sentence,
OF course. Is:
There are three 'to's' (or 'twos)

it?) in the English language"
The children get a lot of fun out of
that-and maybe the professors do
so on the sly, also. But If somebody
like Prof. Billy Phelps Of Yale could
get on the air and attempt to explain
it to the Nazis in the wake Of the
Goebbels warning. the effect would
be devastating on the German mind.
Panic and Pandemonium.
Let some Of our propagandists,
following the opening left by the
Goebbels threat, sound OF in the
direction of German ears with q dis
course on the spelling and pronunci-
alton of the following words:
Rough, through. brought. cough,
doughty and slough. tThis slough"
to be pronounced three different
ways according to the meaning, i. e.,
'sluff" as in casting of q losing
card on q winner at bridge; "sloo, !"
meaning a fen or swamp, and
slough" to rime with now" or
COW" meaning to hit somebody a
hefty crack on the chin or other
jutting promontory)
We have daughter" and laugh
ter where changing the first letter
has an added effect down the line.
We have the word now" Put an
IS" in front and it becomes snow"
with decided drift in pronunciation
The shift is in the opposite direc-
ton when low" is elongated to
'plow"
We are making daily use of the
word ration" and there is a civilian
military split on how it should be
pronounced, with no settlement in
sight. We could follow a fellow
citizen who said, Going downtown
fell in with John Doe and we fell
out and he fell down." but foreign
er trying to follow language like that
probably would be thrown OF at the
first sharp turn.
A selfish soul whose sole interest
Was in food certainly would say that
f1let OF sole was more succulent than
the sole of an old shoe. GO single

On, well, don't bother. We can
get along somehow without apologies
or explanations. 1t merely amuses
US. But Herr Doktor Goebbels made
an enormous tactical error in bring
ing up the subject for NaN consider

vite to the conference leaders of the
various groups that oppose discrimi-
nation in war employment. He did
not specify the groups. The Presi-
