 How many of us realize that An sonia has three Negro-owned and operated grocery stores? The Blue Shelf Grocery Store on Co1burn St. is owned and operated by Carl and Gussie Scott. On the corner of Fremont and Factory, John Cat tison, ST., an old hand at the busi- ness, runs his own store and on Wooster Street Arthur Douglas operates his own store. At these stores you can get some of those southern foods the average grocer doesn't carry. Their prices on every day articles are reasonable also. Drop in and see for yourself some time.
 Don't Stop Us
 Don't know if this is true. Only heard, but this story floating around town struck me as funny They tell us certain fellow was brought before the judge one Mon- day last month and was told that his wife had charged him with non- support. So they say after the judge had heard all the facts, none of which was good for the fellow, he looked down at him with a scowl on his face and said:
 "You ought to be ashamed of yourself. I've decided to give your wife fifteen dollars a week". The defendant looked up at the judge, smiled broadly and said.
 'That's fine judge. That'll be just great. You do that, Judge, and I'll try and slip her a little some thing myself once in a while.

All About ANSONIA
By J. L. DOUGLAS

By J. L. DOUGLAS
 Speaking to some of the old-tim- CTS around town concerning the present state of conditions in An sonia for the working man, we get the impression that most of them think that conditions now are just as bad as they were in the early twenties. They seem to think that when war bonds and other saving and compensation awards, run out the real state of the present con- ditions will show up.
 This seems to me to be a pretty fair evaluation of the present state of all the country and we wonder if many of the people who are now out of work are looking forward to that day when their savings or compensation shall have run out. What do they plan to do and how do they plan to live?
 According to most of the ex- perts, prices were to have dropped soon after the war ended. It has been four years now and prices are still riding high. Every week the number of workers collecting so- cial security benefits grows long CT. About the only secure jobs are government positions. How long will the dam break? We don't want to sound too pessimistlc above but that is the drift of thought we get from listening to the conversations of the unemployed in and around our city.

a school of fish with his great mouth
open his victims are terrified.
Experienced guides advise you to
"sockhim' hard when he strikes. 1t
is the busky's idea that leaping high
in the air to shake his head with
tremendous effort will relieve him OF
the bait. Most of the time he Is
correct. But you must learn to "sock
him hard" when he strikes. His
mouth is hard and bony, so the hook
must 60 deep to hold. He will dc
everything in his power to regain
freedom.
When a musky opens his capacl-
GUS mouth his gill covers fan out like
feathers on a gamecock. His scaly
cheeks glisten in the sun, the rows
of white and yellow dots on his back
and sides gleam like metal. He has
a devil-may-care expression in his
eyes and his sharp teeth can cut
deep.
A 451a-pound musky can be taken

strong enough to pull in 50 heavy

Nv Word for 1t

The word TAKE may properly
be used in a large number of mean
ings. But there are certain usages
that are frowned on as illiterate
or dia1ectal by the authorities. A
few of the commonest abuses fol-
low:
Avoid: IT hope you don't 60 and
take sick"
Better say: I hope you don't be-
come sick Tor ILL.
Avoid: Leave me take your pen
Gil" There are two errors here.
Better say: Let me have your
pencil.
Wrong: HE took and bought a
car"
Right: He bought a car.
Wrong: "SheN has taken down
with a cold"
Right: She has taken cold. Or:
She has caught cold.
Wrong: 1--WE took my death Of
cold.'
Right: I have a bad cold.
Wrong. I'm glad to see that he

Right: I'm glad to see that he
likes to study.
Schoolteachers for countless years
have labored valiantly to stamp
out the dialectal Il taken, he taken,

persist, often in the speech of
fairly well educated persons.
Similar errors are, Il done,

Let's see why II taken, I done, !

Take, do, and see are irregular
verbs; the past tense Is: took, did

Now, taken, done, and seen are
past participles and they need au-
Hillary or assisting verbs, such as
was, were, had, have, ETC.. as: ]

August Is the month TO nsh 1or
muskies in Rainy River, Ontario,
Canada. It is not unusual to pull in
IS Founders after a lively tussle last
ing 8 or 10 minutes. To capture
these high-voltage glary-eyed flip
floppers, you must prepare to lose a
few prizes until you learn their tao
tics. A musky will take the bait,
leap high in the air, shake his head
vigorously to rid himself of the hook,
then take couple of flip-fops in
the air before striking the water.
He may go for a short run, then
seek the bottom and sulk. Walt
patiently until he gets over his
peeve. Then the struggle is on
again.
The musky or muskellunge, SO
named by the Indians, is the largest
fish of the pike family. His fame as
a game fish has travelled far. He is
the delight of anglers who gladly
travel hundreds of miles to capture
him. The favorite hide-outs of the
muskies are in the larger lakes IN
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Canada and
the Great Lakes. Some of the
muskies In the Wisconsin lakes are
almost black, while others are rosy

A Three Trick Sacrifice Hit.

A Three Ir1ck Sacflnce nit.
= A gambit of a most unusual type
- is observed in the defense OF the
!. hand shown today, in that three
tricks are deliberately conceded to
the opposition for the purpose OF
= gaining one unit of time. And it
:, proved to be very sound invest
-ment.
The auction was normal in all re-
. spects but for the question OF the
: opening bid. Some players with
'.' hands of this type prefer to pre-
: empt with a call of three diamonds,
but would not undertake to quarrel
!. with an opening bid of one which
might easily turn out to have gooc
= strategic value.
p. The opening lead was somewhat OF
- a lucky stab and yet 1t was based on
certain amount of logic. East'sI
vigorous bidding indicates great
strength in spades and diamonds
: and surely at least mild club stop
per. It is, therefore, reasonable to-
expect that he has no special sup
port for hearts. West made no ef-
fort to insist upon the major suit sc
: that it cannot be too well reinforced.
North's side values are very likely in
hearts, since he made free bid
and from declarer's excitement it
can be gathered that the North's
spade suit itself is not very robust.
From his failure to double it may be
inferred that North is not very well
prepared for a diamond lead so that
a lead in that suit will very likely
sacrifice a trick.
South, therefore, led the jack of
hearts which was covered by the
king and the ace. The seven of
diamonds was returned and the 10
went to South's queen. The. nine
of hearts was continued and de-
clarer refused to cover with the 10.
Nevertheless, North overlook with
the queen, despite the fact that it
established three good heart tricks
in the dummy. He continued with
the six of diamonds and dec!arer
was now helpless. The diamonds
were now established and declarer
could do no better than run with his
eight tricks.
Had North practiced false econo-
my and permitted the nine of hearts
to hold, the diamonds could not
have been established. The ace Of
clubs would have been extracted
from the South hand. permitting
declarer to establish nine tricks.

West are vulnerable, you are North
