My limited talents do not in

I'd want to learn is how to stop it.
Failure to start the car is not apt

It is highly doubtful that any

but the student does not receive
sufficient instruction in when not

of automatically going to game in

cases where dummy has raised with
a holding that includes four spades
and weakness in one suit, which
would make the major suit the
sounder contract. In other words,
with the South hand, after North's

A. The word is chevon, pro-

A. "Agur 40" is a dialectal cor
ruption of the Latin aqua fortis,
strong water pronounced: AK

used to designate a weak grade of

Washington: What does hard

To me it suggests lion tanner, a
snake charmer or a verminous
gentleman from Skid ROVE. o. j..
A. Merriam Wegster's explains its
origin as, hard in biting, as a dog"
Hence, stubborn; tough. But I be-
lieve it is another form of hard

champs his teeth down on the bit
takes the bit between its teeth i,

st. Joseph: What is the correct
plural of the word bus?-V. H. C.
A. Either buses or busses. The
form buses is used by most bus

and by most city bus companies.
The form busses is the only spelling
sanctioned by the United States
Government Printing Office Style
Manual. My personal choice is the
form buses.
Los Angeles: When some one has
