Take My Word for 1t syE,snt Cob,

This question comes from a speech
class in the Middle West: The SUBJ
Ject OF how to pronounce the words
don't you, can't you, miss you. won't
you, etc., when they occur in ordi-
nary speech or conversation, has
arisen in our class. Our teacher
tells us we must say, very precisely
don't you, won't you," carefully
separating the two words. But try it
VIII you referee?
Inferior teaching is often respon-
sible for mistaken idea of what is
correct and what is not.
The fact that these two words
meet you (meechoo), can't you
(canchoo), miss you (misho), and
the like-look strange when spelled
as they are pronounced, has led to
undue prejudice against the normal
pronunciation. But, as I have
pointed out on numerous other oc-
casions, English spelling cannot be
used as guide to English pronun-
Iciation.
When, in rapid speech, "t'' or
I'd" sound precedes a "u" or "y"
sound, the almost universal custom
in natural and unaffected speech
combines the two sounds into one.
This polarization takes place in
words like creature, venture, denture
pronounced KREE-cher, VEN
cher, DEN-cher). It also is custom

land. One trouble with this divi-
sion is that some turtles spend
about the same amount of time on
land as in the water.
Usually the big Galapagos turtles
are called tortoises. They spend
most of their time on dry land.
The leatherback turtle, of which
II spoke Monday, is the largest
member of the turtle tribe, but
Galapagos tortoises get to be large
enough. Sometimes their shells are
S feet long, and their weight may
be 500 pounds or more. They are
used very little for soup, but their
flesh is good to eat. In old days,
pirate vessels used to anchor along
the shores of the Galapagos Is
lands, and the pirates would cap
ture several of the big tortoises.
These were placed aboard and were
kept alive for weeks or months.
They provided the pirates with a
supply of fresh meat"
Galapagos tortoises are gentle.
Not long ago, I watched a 9-year-
old girl ride on the back of one of
them at private zoo in Florida.
AfterwAyd she said, "It seemed like

larry In expressions such as don't
you see (donchoo see)?" when the
you" is not emphasized. If "you" is
given emphasis, a slight pause comes
just before "you," and the sounds are
articulated clearly and separately,
as: I would not be guilty of that.
Would you?
The practice of palatizing either
individual words, or certain COM
binations of two words, has the COM
lplete sanction of our highest author
Eities. "It (palatization) is the nat
Iural pronunciation in general use by
Iall cultivated speakers. "-Webster'S
New international Dictionary.
The late Charles Allen Lloyd (''We
Who Speak English" Thomas Y.
Crowell Co. states: Cultured Eng
disappearing people, both in Eng
land and America, normally say
'Canchu, didju, wouju' and so on,
when the you is unemphatic."
OF course, telescoping may be car
ried to such extremes as to be
Isloyenly:: "Vyuh-eet chet? No: seat"
translation: Have you eaten yet?
No; hav you? No; let's eat)
But over-precise articulation is as
tedious and irritating as the
slovenly. A good grade of Standard
American colloquial speech is the
goal we all should strive for, espe-
cially those of us who do any kind
Of public speaking.

Several years ago a restaurant ir
Valparaiso, Chile, used q strange
kind Of advertising. Outside Its
door, it displayed a huge turtle OF
tortoise.
That restaurant wanted more
customers for dinners which in.
cluded turtle soup. People saw the
clumsy tortoise, and were reminded
that they could go inside and enjoy
the soup.
No special danger existed that the
tortoise would be killed and used
for soup. Other kinds of turtles
especially green turtles, are much
better for making soup.
The tortoise which was used for
that display had been obtained
from the Galapagos Islands. These
islands are in the Pacific Ocean,
about 500 miles west of Ecuador.
At this point let me say a few
words about the use of the words
turtle" and tortoise" We may
say that turtle is a tortoise, and
a tortoise is a turtle, but many per-
sons give the special name of "tor-
toise" TO a turtle which lives on

West, suspecting that the dummy
would go down very short in hearts,
opened his top spade to prevent a

put in the nine and South won with
the jack. South returned a low
heart. West hoped up with the
ten-spot and persisted with his
attack on trumps. Dummy again
playing low, East forced South's
ace with the ten.
South now ruffed a heart in
dummy, led a diamond to the king
and doubtless hoping to get a
discard on dummy's diamonds be-
fore East could ruff in) led the
queen and three of diamonds. East,
however, promptly ruffed and
cashed the club and heart aces,
defeating the contract one trick.
If South had taken full advan-
tage of the marked position of high
cards, he could have made the
hand by leading the heart king at
the second trick. East, upon win
ming with the ace, could do no
better than return the king and
ace of clubs. South would ruff the
second club, ruff a heart in dummy,
then return to the diamond king
and ruff still another heart with
the spade queen. Now he could
return to the diamond queen, cash
the spade ace and force out East's
spade king by leading another
round of trumps. East, out of
hearts, could only lead a club, and
declarer could easily ruff and dis
pose of his own last heart on
dummy's diamonds.

Sour Cream Adds
lest To Cookery

By international News Service
Treat your family to a delicacy
cream. It's a favorite gar
nish for many dishes and a delec-
table ingredient in others. You can
make it at home from fresh,sweet
cream by adding buttermilk.
Prepared sour cream is prefer
able to cream that has soured
in or out Of the refrigerator.
Thoroughly shake a pint bottle Of
sweet cream and pour out half of
it. Shake the buttermilk well
then add five teaspoons Of butter
milk to the half of the sweet cream
left in the pint bottle. After you
add the buttermilk, pour back
enough Of the sweet cream to fill
the bottle within th~ree-fourths Of
an inch Of the top.
Finally, place a lid or stopper on
the bottle and shake well. Then
place the pint bottle in a warm
PLACE = 70-85 degrees, for
twenty-four hours. After this time,
the cream is ready to use. To i'm
prove the body of the sour cream,
store in the refrigerator for a
day.

Federal Judge Sylvester J. Ryan
for refusing on grounds of self-in-

about the bail fund. They are due
to be released about Dec. 9.
Field already has served a 90

Ryan on the same charge but is
appealing a separate six-month
sentence imposed by Federal
Judge John F. X. McGohey. He
drew the second sentence for de-
clining to answer similar questions
before a grand jury.

st. Croix, Virgin Islands.
Dear Mr.. Nc Farlane:
was indeed surprised to re-
ceive your letter of Septem-
Der l, 1851 and I am at a COM
.plete loss to understand where
you received the Information
contained therein.
First of all, the photograph
er was sent to st. Croix with
specific Instructions from this
office to photograph all hotels
and guest houses in the off
'cial Handbook of the Tourist
Development Board. He also
had Instructions to photograph
the tourist shops and bar-res-
taurants. He was not to photo
graph those shops which were
branches of shops already es-
tablished in st. Thomas.
He never talked to onyone
officially from the st. CroiH
Hotel Association in regard tc
this assignment nor did he re-
ceive any instructions from
any officer of this Association
to include or exclude any pla-
ces Of business.
In checking up with the Of
fetal list of hotels and guest
houses as published in the ST
Croix Chamber of Commerce
folder, we have omitted some
shown on this list. The main
reason for this has been that
such places could not meet the
requirements and standards
demanded by the U. S. Trave.
Agencies for representative
purposes. 1t is useless to list
places of this nature with Tre
vel Agents as they simply vii.
not refer any business to
them.

PUBLICITY FOR ST. CROIX

PUBLICITY FOR ST.
THERE IS a real need for St. Croix to sell itself to the
world. The time to remove our candle from the proverbial
buShel is now. With fine roads running the length and breath
of the island, excellent beaches, and unsurpassed scenery,
there is much that St. Croix can speak about. In addition there
is rolling country which permit for good golf links wherever
golfers may choose.
ORDINARILY there would be no need to speak of the
glories of this place except for the fact that the tourist trade
could be used to good advantage in helping the economy. On
the mainland and elsewhere people speak and think of the
Virgin Islands as a unit, and to the great majority the Virgin
Islands is St. Thomas. And there is good reason for this.
Throughout the years the excellent and picturesque harbor
o. Isl. Thomas was known throughout the shipping world, and
its glorieskept mounting, j~usti6ably enough. St, Croix, on the
other hand, 40 miles to the south and out Of the direct lanes,
did not receive such publicity.
BUT THIS IS a different day. St. Croix can no longer
depend entirely upon its famed rum and agricultural products.
We must turn to every possible means Of income available.
Within the last few years an attempt has been made to offer
tourist accommodations, and to make these services just as
enticing and profitable as ever. Tourists will travel only to
such places as they know about, and which offer the entice-
ment and fascination strong enough to attract the expense for
the trip. If St. Croix, therefore, expects to make a success of
its tourism venture, then she must let people know what there
is here to be offered, and nobody can do this for us but we
ourselves.
ST. THOMAS will of course remain the dominant factor
in touism in these parts. And it is only natural, for her posi-
ton and accommodations aresgeared to meet a much heavier
demand, since tourism is truly big business across the pond.
Nevertheless, St. Croix with what it has to offer, and the
volume of business which it seeks to attract being much less
than ST. Thomas, could and should make good.
WHILE IT may not be advisable to set up a separate unit,
yet there should be'on the tourist board such individuals as
carry responsibility for divisional publicity. Such a plan would

BUDAPEST, Hungary, June g..
Hungarian Communist leaders
are limiting that there has been
a large-scale invasion of the party
by persons who are it's enemies,
and that purge of the lower
party ranks is about to begin.
These hints follow the dismissal
last month of foreign minister
and interior minister and num-
ber Of other important party fig
ures. who seem to have disap-|
peared. The indications are that
the purge of high-level Communist
Party officials is about complete,
and the housecleaning now will
reach down into the ranks.
A rising new power in the party
and government, Politburo Mem
ber Istvan Kovacs, made speech
to central organs of the party re-
Gently. The official party news
paper, Szabad Nep. said he de-
manded attention to "the enemy
penetrating the party's rank and
file"
Pushed into illegality," he said,
"it seeks for shelter within the
party. attempting to continue the
class struggle from the inside"
Kovacs added that the "struc-
ture of the proletariat" was
deteriorating. as well as that of
the peasantry, so that former
capitalists. kulaks (village rich) ]
big estate owners. petit bourgeois
elements, unreliable reactionaries,
former army officers. gendarmes,
government officials and other
"non-proletarian" persons now
wear workers clothing"
Kovacs said it was not enough
that the gates of the party be
closed to such persons, but "they
