Natures Children
May Apple.
By lillion Cox Athey

Almost every little country girl
from Quebec to the Gulf of Mexico,
westward to Minnesota and Texas,
looks forward to going out each
spring for glossy green umbrellas,
known as Mandrakes or May apples.
The plants grow in rich moist woods
in clumps where some sunlight has
filtered down through the trees.
Some lush ones are seen along road
sides, and the prettiest I once dis
covered in fence-corner. The
larger umbrellas we reserved for
ourselves, though they were very in
adequate, and the smaller ones
answered we'll for our dolls.
Each parasol pushes its way up
through the cold moist earth very
tightly wrapped about sturdy
stem and wearing a case. Once
the parasol is ready to open up, the
case is discarded. Gases on UNI
brellas at stores come high. They
are for the same purpose nature
designed those for the May apple
to keep it tightly folded toward the
stem, shield it from wear and tear.
Some of the parasols have four
lobes, others more. Seven seems to
be the common number-count for
yourself. Where the sun touches
the stem it is a lovely shade of
pink, otherwise it is a deep green,
Each main stem ends under the
leaves at the center of the parasol
then it spreads out into pale green
fuzzy ribs into each lobe of the leaf
From the ribs of each lobe other ribs
are extended, a design for strength
we have copied. The lobes of the
Mandrake umbrella narrow toward
the stem, broadening at the outer
edge. The lobes are divided almost
to the center. Therefore, they can
fold up closely during rainy weather,
On the outside the umbrellas are a
rich glossy green with a jade lining
woody to the touch.
Double umbrellas are common,
They protect in the large white
scentless blossom the vital pollen
needed by other mandrake flowers
to set seed-children. Insects arrive
in large numbers to assist the plant.
On their fuzzy bodies and tiny feet
cling the sticky grains of pollen
which they leave with every mature
flower. AS soon as the insect part
ner departs, the white petals drop to
the ground. They were for the pur-
pose of tagging a caller. Standing
in a circle of the blossom are 10
stamens that will soon guard a small
green button that will gradually
become large pale yellow, sweetish
fruit. This wild lemon" appeals
to the taste of small boys and swine
only
May apples are easily transferred
to your own wild flower garden.
Each spring they make such lovely
clumps of green as they steadily
push their way up through brown
leaf blankets you look forward to
their early appearance.

Take My Word for 1t
BY Fronk Colby
Saturday RoundeIay.

Wakefield: Most choirs, 7 have
noticed, pronounce hallelujah in
singing as "hal-e-LOOL-yuh." Is
that right?-Dr. j. E. w.
Answer-The third syllable Is
'1oo," not "lool." Correct: HAL-uh-
LOO-yuh. The word is from the
Hebrew halelu jah, praise ye Jeho-
YAH"
La Jolla: Why is 1t that the name
Hereford (cattle) is seldom given it's
correct pronunciation, HEHR-e-
ford?-L. P.
Answer-In America the Hereford
breed is called HUR-ferd. Cattle
man never say HEIR e-ford,"
which is the British pronunciation.
Columbus: I've heard many
prominent men speak of women as
"wimmin." Why?-M w.
Answer-It is the correct pronun-
citation. The pronunciation wimmin
for women survives from Anglo
Saxon days when the word was
spelled "wimmann."
Pandora: While reading "The
Paradise Case" I came across these
spellings, Realise, sympathise rec
ognise." Can you give me the rea-
son for this?-E. L.
Answer-Spelling of such words
with IS" is British usage, but 1t is
not good form in America. We spell
such words with ~"
Council Bluffs: How should one
pronounce bas-relief? I've always
pronounced the "bas" like the word
base. u. B. H.
Answer-The dictionaries show 10
as "bah-ree-LEEF. But you'll have
most Americans on your side If you
pronounce bas to rhyme with mass,
pass, with the fiat "a as in passen-
ger. See Kenyon and Knott's Pro-
nouncing Dictionary, and Random
Houses College Dictionary.
Tacoma: Please pronounce San
hedrin. Ministers always say san
HEE-drin. &C. C. C.
Answer-The first syllable is ac-
cented. Say SAN -hi-drin; or SAM
i-drin.
Fort Wayne: Please pronounce
cyclamen. Is the first syllable like
"sigh"?-Mrs. C. G.
Answer-No. It's SICK -luh-mun.
Are you in the habit of saying AREN'T
you never should use this expression.

Opening lead: Queen of spades.
If were to suggest to my readers
that it requires the taking of five
tricks to defeat a three trump
contract, I would be exposing my
self to the charge of adopting a
patronizing attitude. Yet there is
good grounds for belief that this
elementary truth should from time
to time be brought again to their
attention. The idea that the de-
clarer should plan his campaign i'm
mediately the dummy is spread is
pretty generally understood. But
that the defense should also adopt
an organized plan to reach its OBJ
jective Gin this case the taking Of
five tricks is frequently lost
sight of.
Against the final contract of three
no-trump West led the queen Of
spades. East played the four.
Not a high enough card to get
partner excited, yet not the lowest,
so that it would appear that the
continuation of the suit was mildly
suggested. 1naSmuch as East held
four OF the suit he realized that his
partner could probably establish it
in one more lead. Declarer won the
opening lead with the king and
played the king, queen and another
club, West waiting until the third
round. The jack of spades was con-
tinued and declarer held up. The
ten of spades drove out the ace.
Declarer then played the queen
OF hearts and the jack, but was
permitted to hold them both so
that dummys king would not be-
come an entry to cash the clubs.
East was then given the lead with
the ace of hearts, and promptly re-
turned his partners suit. West
cashed his remaining spade but was
obliged to lead away from his
king of diamonds and permit de-
clarer to score his ninth trick with
the queen.
East had played without PLAN
ming. When he won the heart trick
he knew that his partner had only
one more spade to cash and that
would be only trick No. 4. Since
five tricks were required, it would
be necessary for the defense to
cash trick In diamonds. If West
did not have high diamond all
was lost save honor. Since West
might find it embarrassing to lead
diamond himself, Easts proper
play at this point was to lead that
suit. Declarer would have had no
recourse but to take the finesse
and the king Of diamonds would
have been the setting trick.

World- Wide Health Measures

One of the most important milestones on the road TO bet

For each of these fields a
special division will be created
within the Organization and
an expert committee will be
appointed. These will carry
out special studies and will
assist and advise national
health administrations, pro-
viding individual experts and
teams for countries requesting
them.
Additional activities APP
proved for the first years OPP
eration-with a budget of only
$4,000, 000-include the estab-
lishment Of an international
influenza center, a worldwide
survey OF ways to increase
production of penicillin and
insulin, stimulation of re-
search in the field of mental
health and further extension
of the already existing fellow
ship program, which makes
possible the widest exchange
of medical and public health
knowledge among the peoples
of the world.

The need for, International
action against disease was rec
ognized by medical specialists
at least a century ago. Al
though this idea continually
gained ground and led to the
establishment of several inter
national health organizations
until now the measures taken
remained largely defensive
and of limited scope.
However, delegates and OBJ
servers from SO nations who
met here during four weeks
have adopted six major pro-
grains for improvement of
health standards everywhere
and enacted the first interna-
tional health legislation ever
undertaken by the natoins of
the world.
Consolidating the activities
OF previously existing health
organizations and moving in
to new fields of international
cooperation, the permanent
World Health Organization is
already busy with global pro-
grams against malaria, tuber-
culosis and venereal disease.
WHO will also mobilize all
