Correction

Correction
In the account of the tea given
by Mrs. Calvin King and Mrs. c.
E. Patton last week in honor of
Miss Carolyn Hays, bride-elect,
through a typographical error,
it was stated that the bride was
attired in a trousseau model of
black accessories and white car
nation corsage. 1t should have
read: The bride was attired in
a trousseau model of black print
ed tissue faille with black Access
series and white carnation cor
sage.

San Diego: Can you tell us why
q "duffel bag" is so called? We've
discussed it pro and con, and can
see no reaSon.-H. A. K.
Answer: Originally, duftel was a
coarse wooden fabric with a thick
nap. It was manufactured at Duf1el,
Belgium.
Columbus: A magazine story tells
of the shooting of white black
bird" It's hard to understand how
a black" bird can be white-MrS.
K. u. w.
Answer: Blackbirds were so
named because they are black, of
course. But "blackbird" is now the
name of a species, and if a white
individual is found, it properly is
q white blackbird," just as we
speak of a green blueberry. There
is also species of white black
berry.
Anahuac: Please explain how the
new word "chemurgy" is formed;
and exactly what does it mean?
*. B.
Answer: Chemurgy is formed
from the Chem" of chemistry,
plus "-urgy," a Greek combining
form denoting the art of working
with" as in metallurgy.
Detroit: What is the origin of
the word "slang?"-H. K.
Answer: The origin is in doubt,
although Philologist o. Ritter thinks
it might have been formed from

thus thieve(s lang uage, beggar(s'
language. Carl Sandburg gives
this apt definition: Slang is Ian

Inorthward 1900 miles, the family

Nevertheless, the plan does work
in many cases. If the FloridianS
had gone 200 miles farther north
on their trip, they would have had
cool days and cold nights.
Another plan is to 60 up the
sides Of mountains. Even on a
July or August day which is hot
in the lowlands, life on a noun
tain is skely to be cool enough.
Let the mountain elevation be from
a mile to mile and q half, and

Greenland a person can ind as
much mountain land as his heart
desires.
The greater part of Greenland
is covered with ice and snow the
year around. Summer comes, but
it fails to melt the frozen covering
to any extent.
School pupils read in their geog-

wrong name. The name of Iceland
would be closer to the truth;
Greenland is far colder than the

Mr.. Champion was smart enough

a suit preference. He played ac-

ton trey of clubs and Mrs. Keen won
with dummy's queen.
On this trick Mr.. Masters dropped |
the jack.
Sensing danger, Mrs. Keen dis
dained the trump flneSse and led
heart to her ace. She continued
with the queen of hearts and Mr..
Champion was in with the king.
Here Mr.. Masters had to make
discard. He was practically certain
his partner had started with a lone
club. If he could get spade lead
from Mr.. Champion at this point, he
could probably cash the queen and
ace of that suit, then lead club for
his partner to ruff.
This might look like an encourag-
ing discard and result in diamond
shift which was the last thing he
wanted. In view of these conSidera- :
tions, Mr.. Masters played the deuce ;
Of clubs.
Now follow Mr.. Champions rea-
soning. What did his partners un-
usual play in the club suit mean?
Mr.. Masters doesn't make play like
this without reason. Obviously,
he didn't want clubs continued.
What else could it be but an at
tempt to indicate a preference for
a lead in one of the other two plain
suits. Since he had played his high
est club first, apparently he wanted
q lead in the highest suit, spades.
Therefore, after winning with the
king of hearts Mr.. Champion didn't
have to guess as between spades and
diamonds. He promptly led a spade.
Mr.. Masters got two spade tricks. .
then led club which was ruled Tor
the setting trick.
