Work Started On New
 ANS Hospital at Bethel

Preliminary work has b e e n started on construction of the new $1,945,90O Alaska Native Service hospital at Bethel, according to the senior member of the con- tracing firm in charge of the project, Harold Raber.
 The hospital, which will re- place one destroyed by fire in November, 1850, is scheduled for completion in August, 1854. In reply to a question as to why the job should take so long, Raber pointed out that work would be curtailed, if not stopped altogeth- CT, during the long, extreme win ter months of the area.
 The completed hospital build ing will be a one-story affair with a 6O-bed. capacity, according to ANS construction officials. They said the building will be erected on a pile foundation, because con- crete is both too expensive to ob- tain and too hard to pour proper ly in the permafrost of the area.

7 axe Ny Word for 1t

Cincinnati: I'm reading a book ir

Jas mimsy as borogove and be fec
by the ravens" What do the words
''mimsy" and "borogove" mean?-
Mrs. ". N.
Answer: The words are from the
poem "Jabberwocky," in Lewis Car
rolls Through the Looking Glass
and What Alice Found There" The
first stanza reads:
Twas brillig. and the slithy toves
Did eyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves.
And the nome raths outgrabe.
None of the words have any
meaning. They correspond exactly
to the modern double talk, and the
authors use Of "mimsy' and "boro-

|lightful whimsy.
Lewis Carroll was fond Of coming

The most interesting Of all the
figs is the banyan tree, a native Of
India. AS the tree grows, the
branches develop rapidly and be-
come very long, growing practically
at right angles to the trunk. Prop
roots grown downward, penetrate
the ground and form large numbers
of subsidiary trunks" so that go
ing under a large banyan tree is
like going into a forest. Some of
these trees reach q great size. In
Calcutta the largest one In the
world is over 100 years old. A few
years ago the trunk Of this tree
was found to be 202 feet around,
consisting of 80 subsidiary trunks.
Some were 8 to 10 inches In cir
Icumference.
Many Indian gardens contain
small banyan trees. There is
famous banyan in South India
under which Alexander the Great
is said to have encamped and which
lis said to have sheltered 1000 men.
1t was measured and found to be
1000 feet in circumference with
5000 subsidiary trunks.
The common fig plant is well
known in Washington, where soma
very fruitful plants produce each
year. The plant should be estab-
hShed In q sheltered spot.

ed with this fruit. What we cal
fruit" is really the enlarged ane
fieshly receptacle or thickened enc
of the flower stem.
The figs include several most in.
teresting trees, shrubs and climbers
There are about 600 species Of the
genus Ficus, scattered throughout
the warm regions Of the world. The
common fig in our garden has
deeply lobed leaves, but most of its
relatives have leaves with entire
margins. The foliage also varies
from leathery to membranous and
the veining Of the leaves is so vari-
able that identification is somewhat
dificult. The genus includes the
India rubber tree, the banyan and
the creeping fig on the walls of SC
many buildings In some parts o1
our country.
In tropical forests, some of the
tallest trees belong to the fig fam
lily. Many Of them begin life as
creepers, climbing to the top OF
other trees which they outlast.

Mr.. Champions opening lead was
the king Of clubs and Mr.. Muzzy
played the nine spot. That's the
trouble with knowing q little about
Q subject-in this case, the subject
Of signaling. It's better to know
nothing at all.
When Mr.. Champion saw the
nine Of clubs, he figured it to be-
the start Of high-low signal
which. Of course, it was. He con-
tinued with the ace of clubs, on
which Mr.. Muzzy played the deuce.
It now seemed clear that Mr.. Muzzy
wanted the suit continued because
he had small spade, higher than
dummy's six spot, with which he
wanted to ruff a third club lead.
Mr.. Champion therefore con-
hnued with the seven of clubs,
dummy ruffed with the six of
spades and Mr.. Muzzy triumphant
ly ruffed with the king of spades.
He returned the eight of dia-
monds to his partners ace and a
fourth club was led. Dummy ruf1ed
with the deuce Of spades and Mr..
Muzzy, not to be denied, over
ruffed with the ace. Thus the de-
tenders had to be satisfied with a
meager two-trick set.
Very clever. Muzzy," said Mr..
Champion through clenched teeth.
"You kept them from trapping
your ace and king of trumps."
What do you want me to do?"
asked Mr.. Muzzy, plafntively.
you've been after me to high-low

you don't echo just to show a
doubleton," Mr.. Champion screamed.
'You echo to show the doubleton
and that you want third round
Of the suit led. What good did it
do you to run with the ace and king
81 trumps?"
If Mr.. Muzzy had made the right
play of the discouraging deuce Of
clubs at trick one, the defenders
could have picked up dummy's two
trumps and then won three more
clubs and a diamond for q TOO
point set.

annual poll-tax. In some counties
the evidence of the Negro citizens
being ready, willing and able to
pay their poll-tax has been met
with the refusal of the sheriff and
tax-collector to accept the money
for payment of poll-tax from Ne
gro citizens.
The most effective stumbling
block to the growth of the number
OF Negro voters in the state is still
somewhat well founded fear physi-
ology afflicting most Mississippi
Negroes, especially those in the
rural areas. Those who oppose
any increase in the number of Ne
gro voters in the state are not ad-
verse to using the fear physiology
OF the Negroes in order to keep
them from qualifying to vote.
In the matter of the Negro citi-
zens being qualified to vote there
are also the legal, or rather extra
legal handicaps that must be over

box.
In Forrest County, which in
cludes Hattiesburg, one of the lar

Clerk, using the law originally

1890 to keep the Negro from vot-

cess to final supreme court action.
SO far the U. S. Court of Appeals
has given its aid to keeping the
Mississippi Negro from the ballot
box by holding that the Negro
must go through the long drawn
out process of exhausting all ad-
ministrative remedies at the local
and state levels before coming
into court.
The Forrest County Clerk and
his case is seen as being taken as a
guiding example in the other coun-
ties in the state and no appreciable
increase is the state can be seen
until the Forest County case has
been decided. Of the estimated
$4,000 Negro voters of the state,
most are seen as being in favor Of
the Adlai Stevenson-John Spark
