to 94 percent of the cash value at 4 percent interest. But you can't borrow a nickle ..on it, from the government.
 Query from Mrs MG.G-, Law renee, Mass: My husband died ot a service connected disability in 1887. The check I get from the government every month says Com rensation' on it. Why doesn't 1t say Pension as it should?"
 Because it isn't pension you are getting, but compensation. If your husband had died of non-se service connected disability and you were entitled to a monthly payment from the government, it then would be pension" But any payment TOT any service connected disability or death is called compensation. A special act of Congress makes the distinction.

Query from Mrs. F. w.. Spokane, Wash. Please answer th,s question for lot of war widows (WWD who are receiving pensions from the government. We know that if we remarry' we will lose our pension. But what happens if we marry an other wv I veteran and he dies Before we do? Will we then be en- titled to the SAP a month pension again?"
 You would be, assuming you meet the normal qualification, and pro- vided the marriage lasts at least 10 years. If the second husband died within 10 years of marriage then you would not get the pension under any circumstances. That's true of any marriage to wv I veteran that took place after Dec. IA, 1914.

A Few Points To
Remember When
Buying A Diamond


Everybody loves diamonds, but
most people know very little about
them. With jewelers. all over the
country participating in the "1949
Diamond Jubilee" from March %
through April 8, when they will dis
play the largest stocks of diamonds
in years, the jewellery Industry
Council has issued some pointers
for the public.
The first thing for the prospec-
tive diamond buyer to do, accord
ing to the council, is to pick out a
retail jeweler whom he knows and
in whom he has confidence. The
jeweler not only knows. diamonds,
but he knows what is fashionable
and in good taste.
The "size" of diamond is not
measured by width or depth but
is determined by weight. The car
at, which is 200 milligrams, is the
standard used.
Size is by no means the sole fac
tor in determining the value of a
diamond. A small diamond may.
because of it's superior fire color
and clarity, be worth considerably
more than much larger stones
What is known as sfire In dia-
mond is the gems quality of dis
persing light or dividing it into
colored rays. Colorless diamonds
are the richest in this flashing OF
prismatic hues.
The clarity of a diamond refers
to it's freedoIn4 froHas notieeablC
flaws, such as carbon spots or fis
sures. Diamonds in which no flaws
can be seen under glass tina
magnifies ten times are considered
commercially perfect.
Another most important point t.
consider when buying diamond
is the cut of the stone. This re
fers to the shape of the gem AM
distribution of the small plane sur
faces, or facets, that make
sparkle. The most popular cut TO
engagement rings is the round-cu
or brilliant" Others are tn
streamlined emerald" cut, the oh
long, or square with nipped col
ners, and the boat-shaped "maI
quise." The quality of the work
manship, as expressed in the al
tistry of the cutter, as always, ha
a definite bearing on the brillianc
of the gem.
Most important to consider whe
buying a diamond is how it wi
look on the fortunate person. who
going to wear it. If the diamond
in a ring. small stone in a simpl
mounting, looks well on a littl
and dainty hand. A larger, strong
er hand usually calls for a large
ring. This does not mean that tn
diamond must be larger, but tt
ring itself can be built up wit
carving or the addition of sma
diamonds.

Question: Will you do my Eng
lish class and me a good turn by
explaining whether or not q used
car is second handed?" Your wise
and witty column is Of great help
In our classroom.-MRS. l.. q.
Answer-Thank you.
There is q difference between the
suffixes hand and handed. With
q few exceptions, handed actually
refers to the hand. We speak OF
catching a ball bare-handed, Of
Japanese two-handed sword Ia
sword to be grasped by both hands,
of a soft-handed nurse, of left
handed person.
Therefore, since handed means
referring to or having hands,"
car could hardly be termed Sec
ond handed"
The suffix hand Is used In a
figurative sense and does not refer
to the actual hand. Hence we
speak of f1rst-hand information, of
shorthand notes, Of an offhand
statement, of an underhand trick,
Of arriving beforehand and of a
secondhand car.
In much the same way, a dis
tinction exists between foot and
footed. While child may go
either barefoot or barefooted (re-
member Whittier's Blessings on
thee little man, barefoot boy, with
cheeks of tan"?), the sufix footed
customarily refers to the feet, as, a
footed man, a light-footed dane
er. a four-footed animal, a web
footed bird.
The suff1x-foot usually refers to
the linear foot of IL inches. It modi-
fies or describes q noun (acts as
an adjective), thus: A six-foot lad
der, four-foot wall, a three e-foot
ruler, q two-foot-wide table. Also
A six-inch pipe, hundred-yard
dash, a two-mile race.
When we say q man is six
footer, we do not mean that he has
six feet, but that he is six feet tall.
Note that tn constructions Ike

My first memory of using a strong
microscope goes back to highschool
days. While I was at a class in
zoology I looked at a drop Of pond
water through the lenses. Wonder
of wonders, I saw in that bit OF
water dozens Of slipper animal
cules." These were really smaller
than pinpoints, but under the mi
croscope they seemed about half an
inch long and a quarter of an inch
wide. It was interesting to see them
moving about - they surely were
very much alive.
Soon afterward I saw another
sight under the microscope. This
was the membrane, or web, between
the toes of frogs hind feet. ]

used very widely to teach lessons to
the students.
When frog is held upright, with
it's hind legs dangling on q table.
1t Is seen to have an outline almost
like that of human being. It has
arms" (the short front legs) and
each arm has hand" Only four
fingers are to be seen on each hand.
A big trouble with a frog looking
like a human being Is its face.
There is a nose in the face, but the
nose is hard to see. The mouth. on
the other hand, Is very large when
compared to the size of the head.
It Is almost true that the mouth
reaches from ear to ear.
The ears are marked by small
round spots one near the outer edge
Of each eye. A frog Is without any
ears which stand out" but it can
hear well enough.
Inside the frog we find vital
organs something like those of
human being and almost (but not
|quite) in the same positions. These
organs include heart two lungs
and stomach.
There are teeth in the mouth Of
a frog but they are small. They
are used for grasping prey but fail
to serve for chewing. A frog swal-
lows its food whole. To q large
extent 1t feeds on insects. Usually
lit catches an insect by throwing out
its tongue, and swallows 1t without
the teeth even touching the victim.
The common frog has teeth only
In its upper jaw. There are . few
kinds, however, without any teeth
at all, and others with teeth In both
Jaws.
West Africa has tribe Of frogs
in which the males have teeth in
both Jaws, while the females have
none in the lower Jaws. On the
Solomon Islands are frogs with teeth
in both the upper and lower jaws Of
males and females.
