Uncle Rays Corner

On an April day, 247 years ago,
Ia man in Boston performed an in
Iteresting deed. He printed a little
newspaper, called the Boston News
Letter. It was issued once a week.
The man was John Campbell,
and he was postmaster of Boston:
That may sound like a high posi-
|tion, but his pay was low. Prob
ably he thought that he would make
q better living if he published a
newspaper.
Campbell kept his place as post
master for long time after start
ing the paper. He talked with peo-
Iple who had letters to send, or to
whom letters were delivered. In
this way he gathered news.
Scholars usually speak Of the
Boston Newsletter as the first
newspaper to be published in what
lis now the United States. Some
thing in the nature of a newspaper
had been printed by Benjamin Har-
ris IA years before, but it had been
suppressed by the Boston govern
ment after the first issue. It is hard
to call anything newspaper unless
it appears at least few times.
II Campbell's paper was the first
! American newspaper, what was the

What's the Origin?

=. @. Is this sentence correct: "Top-
seeded favorites moved into the
quarter finals? Seeded" somehow
suggests "seedy," or inferior" ath-
letes, if the word can be used in this
sense at all: but the article I read
implied that the seeded" players
were the superior contestants. l
don't get the connection.-G. v.
A. 1t has long been customary to
distribute contestants so that the
superior players will not meet in
early competition. In other words,
the players are planted" in prede-
termined positions. In sports this
practice is referred to as seeding" p"
Now when a plant goes to seed,
the seed-pods dry up, and the plant
dies; hence, when We speak Of a
person as going to seed we i'm
ply that his personality has dried
up, and that his pride and am
bition have been lost. We say he
looks "seedy" when he lets his
clothes become shabby, and he is
careless of his person, that is, he
Is going to seed"
@. Occasionally we have fun play
ing with our ouija board. We be-
heve that it is named for its in
ventor, DR.. Ouija. Is this correct?-
E. T. w. g"
A. Sorry; the inventor, whoever
he was, coined the name from the
French oui, yes" and the German,
ia, yes" So literally the plaything
is "yes-yes" board.
@. What is the origin of the ex-
preston, "to pipe down"?-A. K. T.
A. Aboard ship, the crew is
"piped" to its duties by the boat
swain's whistle, or pipe" AS the
members of each watch are piped up
on deck for duty, the retiring watch
is "piped down" to quarters, hence,
to rest, relaxation, quiet and sleep.
To pipe down. meaning ito cease

Mr. Masters opened the bidding with

two clubs and the next hand bid two

Advise Frequent
Wool Cleaning

Frequent cleaning of wool
costs less than delaying the
cleaning. Clothing specialists at
Ohio State University point out
that badly soiled garments re-
quire drastic cleaning which is
hard on fabric. Spots, stains or
general soil pressed into fabric
become difficult or impossible
to remove. Dirt grinds into wool,
making it wear out sooner. Grit
can cut fibers; prespiration and
some other stains can weaken
them.
Much may be done at home to
keep wool clothes clean. Ere
quent brushing in the direction
of the grain of the cloth helps.
Sponging with cleaning fluid
especially collars, cuffs, and
other parts which soil first, helps
keep the surface clean. Spots
removed Immediately, come out
more easily than if removal is
delayed.
