Once in New York. Martin and

calm young men who were won

was about. !"
Their shenanigaps range from
midnight sorties through crowded
sleeping cars on fashionable trains

hours out Of Chicago, to acts of
restrained mayhem on the persons
and clothes Of their close friends.

Fort Wayne: No. is the abbrevia-
ton for the word number. Why?
C. c. A.
Answer: No. is the abbreviation
for "numero," the Latin word for
number"
Coleman: The 8-B English class
would like to know why country and
ships are spoken of as she" Will
you give us this information?
Answer: Treating inanimate OBJ
jects as though they were living
beings is a figure of speech called
personification. 1t has long been
customary to treat as feminine
nouns such abstract ideas as justice,
liberty, nature, etc. Poets speak of
the sun as "he" and of the moon as
she"
And see-the sun himself-on wings
OF glory, up the East he springs.

In the old story of Robinson
Crusoe" there are passages which
tell how the hero worked to build
himself boat. He had been cast
on lonely island after the wreck
ing of a sailing vessel. In the hope
of getting away from the island, or
at least of being able to go fishing,
he tried to build boat.
Crusoe's first effort was failure.
He cut down a big tree, then trim
med away the limbs, and spent
weeks in following the log. At the
end he hoped to have boat of the
"dugout" type, and he did get one
but there was trouble. The boat was
so big and heavy that he found it
impossible to shove it to the waters
edge, a few hundred feet away.
The next time he tried to produce
boat, Crusoe cut down tree
which was closer to the beach and
had q smaller trunk. He managed
to make himself sailboat.

Russian name is Moskva, pro-
tnounced: Mos-KVA with a half

The spelling Moscow is strictly
English, and, as far back as I can
trace the name, its correct pro-
nunciation is listed only as MOS

pronunciation with the COW" in
the second syllable, which now has
some sanction, is the influence of
the German pronunciation of their
form, "Moskau."

Problems of much the same kind
had to be met by Stone Age people
when they wanted to ride on wood
in water" We may suppose that
they obtained the idea when they
clung to parts of trees which they
happened to find floating in a river
or lake. Their first "boats" may
have been logs which they placed in
the water and used to support their
weight.

Several dugout boats have been
preserved in Switzerland, where the
famed Swiss Lake Dwellers used to
live. These craft are thousands of
years old, and were made during
the New Stone Age.
How were early people able to
make the logs hollow? At best, this
must have been a hard task.

Theoretically it is not the best
taste for a player to show the ex-
treme displeasure he may feel over
partners action, but South could
not be greatly blamed for muttering
under his breath when North made
the final pass!
1t should be obvious that the
course of bidding was such as to
demand some positive action on
North's part. Whether he chose
to double the four-spade contract
or to go on to five hearts was his
own affair, but in declining to take
either of these actions he was
guilty of breach of partnership.
If North had given due considera-

first doubling for a takeout and
then going to four hearts single
handed, announced a powerhouse.
West at no time showed great
strength. East. having passed one
spade, was obviously sacrificing at
four spades. Thus, when South
passed to this bid, he was very OBJ
viously leaving the final decision to
North. North's distribution being
what it was, he should have bid
five hearts; but even double would

About half of those affected are

to measure proposed for Ameri
cans who lost citizenship by voting
in postwar italian elections. would
enable expatriates to regain citi-

Its benefits would be limited to
those who expatriated because they
voted in two elections during 1916

Mike Masaoka, national JACL

IN every case so far brought by these
expatriates to regain citizenship,
the courts have ruled they voted
under duress. Some courts have
held that voting in the particular
Japanese elections was not suffi-
cient grounds for expatriation be-
cause Japan was not a free and in
dependent foreign nation. but under
the control of the United States.
The majority of the expatriates
are younger persons who came of
age during the war. A great many
are women.
