purchase have no legal voice in it's man
agement, any more than Port Clinton resi-
dents who may have contributed to the
construction of Put-in-Bay's new dock
would have over that project.
Nevertheless, the fact remains that the
island residents-who depend upon air
transportation almost entirely during win
ter months = have an understandable
anxiety over the whole situation, which
appears to be no nearer settlement today
than it was six months ago.
The islanders are extremely vital to the
economic and social we'll being of this
county. They are entitled to fair consider
alton in this question, which has knack
of begging down into strictly a personal
feud.
1t isn't a question Of whether one likes
or dislikes Milton Hersberger; the issue
is strictly one of maintaining the best
possible air transportation linking the
islands with the mainland
The public is growing weary of petty
pickering and haggling. A speedy and
equitable settlement of the issue is in the
best interest of all.

@. We use "dear" as a term of
affection or high regard. Why,
then, do we say of something very
expensive that it is too "dear"?-
M. N.
A. The original word was the
Anglo Saxon deere, precious
therefore, costly" To deere was
added the Anglo-Saxon suffix Ling
producing the word deorling, which
became the English word darling
In a similar manner the Latin
word carus, dear, beloved, costly
evolved into the French cher (mas-
culine) and chere feminine), which
mean beloved, costly" There is no
suffix Ling in French; therefore the
French equivalent of darling was
formed thus: cheri, masculine;
cherie, feminine.
Now the French cher Cdear) did
not enter English in exactly that
form. But we did borrow cher and
attach the Anglo-Saxon -ish to it
producing the hybrid word cherish
Also, we borrowed the French worc
charlie, which meant originally
'love of God and humanity" dron
the Latin caritas, "dearneSS, higf
price"), and which, in turn, be-
came the English word charity.
i The Latin carus, dear, costly
entered Italian as carezza. Thi
entered French as caresse, and be
came the English word caress.

yNoture's Children By la'e" Cox A'Asy

Ilaborers, seeing as well in bright
sunshine as other birds. AS a rule
those knowing the little burrowing
owl are eager to make friends with
them. During the day they may
be seen doing on fence posts, hay
stacks or rocks within easy access
to dugouts.
These hunters are great friends
because OF their willingness and
ability to seize prairie rattlesnakes.
One smart thing the owl hunter Is
known to do Is to stand guard at
the entrance to the home OF the
rattlers whose offspring will wriggle
their way out come summer. The
legend accepted by so many that
burrowing owls. prarie dogs and
Irattlesnakes occupied the same win
ter dugout. should be put out OF
the mind. They are sworn enemies.
The home of the burrowing owl
is a reconditioned cellar, formerly
the property of fox, badger or
prairie dog. Typical owl eggs Of
pure white are kept warm by both
mates sitting as close to each other
as possible. The parents feed their
babies on tender baby mice and
snakes, grasshoppers and lizards,
even small birds. The Florida bur-
rowing owl and the cousin OF Col.
orado have identical working habits.

RurroHing Owls

Owls are worthy neighbors. All

of their weird cry and knows lit

Ices his property.
Because their eyes are directed
forward so that both look In the
same direction, the owl. in order
to look to one side, must turn his
head. Sometimes you fear he Is
going to wiring his own neck.
The large beautiful eyes are sur
rounded by radiating systems OF
feathers called facial disks which
are bounded, except directly In
front, by a rim or line of narrow
stiff and differently formed re-
curved feathers. The various spe-
cies wear a complete and conspicu-
Gus facial ruff; the eye feathers
add much to the appearance OF the
size Of the eye.
For camouflage purposes, the
plumage coloration is prevailing
white, buff or tawny, speckled
margined or smudged with darker
shades of brown. The uniform o1

Contract Bridoe

SATURDAY, JUNE FL, 1852

Oy 6USt6y otoCkWOOO
If your partner leads an ace
against a no-trump contract, your
normal play is the highest card
you have in the Suit-except in the
rare case where dunmys cards in
dicate you would lose a trick by
doing so. While this doesn't come
up often, 1t is a good and useful
convention.

Some players carry this a step
further and when their partner
opens king against a no-trump
contract, they feel called upon to
play their second highest card in
the suit. This is bad convention.
1t is harmful more often than it
is helpful.
It is better in this latter case
TO forget about specialized conven-
tions and simply play your lowest
card If you are not interested in
the continuation of the suit-or
the highest card you can spare if
you are sure it is to your sides
best advantage to have the suit
continued.
True to his nature whenever he
learns anything new to him. Mr..
MuzZy has "over-learned" on the
subject of signals. Somewhere he
has picked up this absurdity about
playing his second highest when his
partner opens a king against a no
trump bid.
So, on Mr.. AbePS lead of the
king of spades in today's deal, he
dropped the eight spot. Mr.. Dale
played low from dummy and did
his bit to make the eight look like
a come-on signal by following with
the seven.
See what this did to Mr.. Abel.
If Mr.. Muzzy was so in love with
the spade suit, he probably had
the jack. Even without the jack,
but with a four-card length, the
spade continuation would be ad-
vantageous, because Mr.. Dale would
then have the jack doubleton.
In any case Mr.. Abel led the
queen of spades at trick two-and
there went the chance of defeating
the contract. Mr.. Dale won with
the ace in dummy and knocked
out the ace of diamonds. On the
heart return he finessed the nine
and Mr. Muzzy took the jack and
returned his last spade.
The jack won and another heart
finesse lost to the king. But then
Mr.. Dale had nine cold tricks
two spades, two hearts, two dia-
monds and three clubs.
