Natures Children
Tule Cypress
(Tarodium nuoronatum).
By LilIion Cox Athey
HORIZONTAL

Americans love giants. Among
natures children there are many
notable ones Among trees there Is
the Tule cypress, also known as the
Montezuma cypress. believed to be
5000 years old, with trunk of 81
feet in diameter. Many have visited
Mexico for the sole purpose of feast
ing their eyes on a perfectly healthy
tree that was 5000 years old when
Jesus was born.
This tree, growing near Oaxaca
Mexico. is easily one of the most
famous in the world and most beau
tiful 1t grows in the church yard
in the village of Santa Maria de
Tule. Its feathery foliage makes 1t
appear twice its normal size. In its
kindly shade attractive Zapotec
maidens offer delicious fruit for sale
Our Southern Bald expresses afe
first cousin to this tree in Mexico.
Throughout the highland valleys of
Sinaloa, Coalula and Mexico other
Montezuma expresses may be seen.
They prefer the wet sites, where
originally marshes flourished; where
their roots stand in water they have
developed great knees through
which they breathe. This is habit
we are familiar with in the cypress
sWamps in our Southern States
History records the ancient Mexi-
cans of preconquest days were
skilled gardeners and landscape
artists. For this reason it would
appear from the locations of some
of the expresses that they had been
placed for purely ornamental
purposes.
| Since ancient days the trees have
been revered because of their age
and resistance to tree enemies. They
also contributed to the health of the
community. Their acrid resin was
used Tor gout, sores, toothache and
skin diseases. From the cones

yWord for 1t
BY Fronk Colby
Readers Corner

@ In showing pronunciations In
your column, why do you not aoan-
don your unscientific phonetic
spelling and use diacritical symbols,
as the dictionaries do?-Dr. P. w. +.
A. For two reasons: Cn News
paper composing rooms are not
equipped with the symbols. ~
Most of my readers say that my
copyrighted system OF phonetic
spelling is greatly superior to the
confusing and ambiguous symbols
of the average dictionary. Since I
introduced the first complete Ameri-
can system of phonetic spelling in
1896, it has been used in more or
less modified form by scores OF
speech and language teachers and
authors; and some of the newer
dictionaries have switched from
symbols to Colby-like phonetic
spelling.
@. An English handbook which
we use at school says, Folks should
not be used for people or family.
Correct: My people mot folks,
came from England" Isn't that
rule little old-fashioned?-Mrs.
M. H. H.
A. Yes. The accepted dictionaries
list folks, "the members of ones
family" as ''colloquial.' The dc
tionary designation "colloquial'
usually abbreviated colloq) is mis-
understood by many. 1t does not
mean or imply incorrectness. Col
loquial usuage is quite proper in all
writing or speech except the extreme
formal or the solemn; /. e., serious
poetry, sermons, formal lectures, etc.
Merriam Webster's states: The
recent tendency in the best public
speaking, both in England and
America, Is away from the formal
and toward the cultivated collo-
quail" BY cultivated colloquial" is
meant what is called "the style OF
well-bred ease"
Folks is thoroughly established
in cultivated colloquial American.
r ~
Several readers have asked me
to supply words like sesquicenten-
nial I5Oth anniversary with which
to designate a 125th anniversary,
175th anniversary, etc. No such
words were to be found in my re-
search library. Whereupon I asked
the Library Of Congress for the
proper terms.
Vincent L. Eaton, Reference De-
partment, Library Of Congress,
writes: I'VE regret to report that
a search OF classical Latin writings
and dictionaries of later Latin hes
not produced equivalent nouns for
the terms you list"
So, II your town is planning, say,
125th anniversary celebration,
you'll have to give UP the idea OF
finding q 90 centennial" word 10
suit the occasion. Simply call 1t
your "125th anniversary"
Do you say AMT and think 1t 10

The bidding:

Pass club Pass lspade
Pass 2spades Pass 4spades
Pass Pass Pass
Opening lead, king of hearts.
In attempting to guess the loca-
ton of missing honors or the dis
tribution of a specific suit, it is our
policy to resort to percentages, or
probabilities only when no other
evidence Is available. Any clue
picked up at the table should be
assigned more weight than an alb
stract mathematical proposition.
Today's hand illustrates what we
have in mind.
The bidding was quite regular.
West held what some players regard
as an optional opening, but properly
chose to pass because of the prob
able dificulties that might be en-
countered in finding a rebid A hand
containing only II points should not
be opened in first or second posi-
ton, if the trump suit is only four
cards long. North elected to open
with one club because his hand was
not quite up to the standard OF =
no-trump bid, and spade opening
might present rebidding problem
on the next round. The bidding
thereafter was routine.
Vests opening lead was the king
of hearts, followed by a prompt
shift to the three of diamonds, hop
ing to put declarer to the guess II
he did not hold the queen. De-
clarer's play at this point makes no
difference, but he did put up the
king, which. of course, held. He
then returned to his hand with the
lack of clubs and took the spade
finesse.
North was somewhat critical OF
his play, contending that the f1nesse
should not have been taken WITH
10 trumps. South referred to tM
tables, to show that the
finesse was the proper procedure
with three cards missing After
all" he pleaded, Il didn't have a
look" North was right, but not Tor
the reason he assigned. He, too'
had missed the point.
1t is true that percentages favor
the finesse with 10 when the king
is missing. But declarer had a
better clue than the percentage
tables. At the end of trick two
West Is marked almost to GER
tainty with the AK of hearts and
the ace of diamonds. If he also
held the guarded king of spades 1t Is
quite inconceivable that he would
have chosen to pass as dealer. A
player will frequently pass hold
ing of three honor tricks, but 1t Is
not sound business to count on any
one having passed 3i2 tricks. East
is therefore marked with the king
of spades and the only hope is that
it is alone.
To pick of the single king would
have been good illustration OF
playing by ear.

Expert Says Acids
Cause Much Car Wear

NEW YORK -(AP)-Ninety
per cent of engine wear in your
automobile may be due to the
action of acids, and not friction,
Shell Oil Co. research scientists
reports.
"In short trips about town
to the office, the bank, and shop
ping-the average motorist runs
his engine for brief periods of
time only" SAID c. E. Davis,
vice-president in charge of manu-
featuring. when the engine
is thus intermittently on and off,
it runs cold, with the result
that combustion may be incom
plete and partially turned fuel
gases and moisture attack the
smoothly polished metal surface
chemically. 1t is this type OF
acid action that accounts for up
to 80 per cent Of engine wear"
Research is seeking means of
preventing the acid action, and
thus add years to the life of
the engine.
