@. What is the origin of the
term Yankee?
A. There are several theories,
none of which has been proved
authentic. I offer these here for
what they are worth:
CD Bartlett's Dictionary of
Americanisms":: The popular
name for the citizens of New
England. but applied by foreign
ers to all the inhabitants of the
United States. The name yen
gees" or "Yenkees" was orig
inally given by the MaSsachu-
setts Indians to the English COL
onists, being the nearest sound
they could give for English"
(2) From the Dutch Jan"
diminutive "Yanke pronounced
YAHN-kee)." In the New World,
Yankee became the name which
the Dutch colonists had for the
English.
@. One of the main goals of
my labor organization is Incen-
tive Pay; yet the great majority
of the members mispronounce
the word. They say -SEN-a-
tive. Please call this to their at
tention.
A. Attention, members! Don't
say 'in-SEN- tive" Give it
three syllables only, thus: in
SEN-tiv.
@. Please. where may I con-
firm the meaning of a white
out" as pertains to the Polar re-
gions?
A. The definition of white
out" has not yet appeared in any
of our dictionaries. The term
describes a condition of poor
visibility existing when an Arctic
fog descendS on a snow or ice
field. 1t is said that the eerie
whiteness combined with total
absence of shadows makes it ex-
tremely difficult to move about.
@. Should the accent in the
word "trespass" ever fall on the
last syllable?
A. No. The first syllable only
should be accented. and in best
usage the "a" is obScured. Better
say: TRESS-p's.

light yellow spots appear on the
underside. These spots have an
oily transluscence which darkens
within a few days. AS these
spots increase in size they turn
bright orange and multitude
of new spores shortly take to
the airways. Diseased leaves
drop readily. Without leaves no
tree can exist. Naturally rust
infested trees soon die.
The swiftness of the rust
spread is what troubles growers.

Oriental growers have learned
to grow plants with market re-
sistance to rust. There are two
species of rust that must be
eliminated. Hemileia vastatrix
is the better known rust and
Hemileia coffericola has been
known only 20 years. This lat
ter foe has spread in the French
Cameroons and the Portuguese
island of Sac Tome of West
Africa.
Hemileia vastatrix attacks cof-

In today's deal Mr.. Muzzy
opened the bidding with one
spade, although one club or
even one no trump would have
been better. Mr.. Champion
raised to three spades. This bid
is forcing to game unless you
have previously passed.
1t is also limit bid. That is.
with a little less, Mr.. Champion
would have made a minimum
response in a suit of his own
and given partner a single raise
if partner rebid his suit.
With a little more than he
actually had, Mr.. Champion
would have bid a suit of his own
first, planning to Jump raise
his partners suit on the next
round. And, of course, with a
hand strong enough to suggest
the possibility of a slam, he
would have made an immediate
Jump take out over the one spade
opening.
Against the final contract of
four spades, Miss BraSh led the
lone six of clubs. Automatically,
Mr.. Muzzy played the five from
dummy. He gave no thought as
to how this play might be re-
lated to the winning of 10
tricks on the hand.
He was thinking only about
this one trick-if he was think
ing at all. In other words, if
the king of clubs was on his
left, he would lose no club tricks
at all. If it was on his right
he would lose on club trick-but
In that case anybody would
have to lose a club.
AS you see, it wasn't quite as
simple as that. 1t wasn't queS-

time was all-important.
If the club lead were a single
ton, then the contract might be
lost by ducking at the first
trick.
The contract was lost. Mr.
Masters won with the king of
clubs and returned the nine.
Miss Brash ruffed. put her part
ner in with a heart lead to the
ace and ruffed another club.
She then cashed the ace of
diamond for Mr.. Masters to ruff.
Down three.
Note the slight difference if
Mr.. Muzzy had noted, at trick
one, that he did not need to win
four club tricks to make his bid.
If he had put up the ace of clubs
and taken three quick rounds
of trumps, the defenders would
have won a heart, a diamond
and a club, period.

Tips on Making
Really Good Coffee

sweet at all Times. Never let
leftover coffee stay in the pot.
If you want it for use later-an
economical but far from epi-
curean habit-pour it into a
glass or china Icontainer. and set
aside. Too long association with
the coffee maker will benefit
neither the coffee nor the pot.
If you want really superb
coffee, you'll Swn a grinder and
buy your coffee by the bean. II
not, the next best thing is to buy
it where it Is ground to your
specification under your stern
eye. Old coffee is never good, so
it is important to have a reliable
dealer who does not keep old
stock on his shelves. Vacuum
packed coffee is the only kind
that Is safe toI buy ready ground.
You will find coffee keeps its
flavor better Il it is stored in a
cool place-yes, even in the
refrigerator i your storeroom
or kitchen is inclined to be over
heated. 1t should always be kept
tightly covered.
To get just the coffee to please
your family, you will have to
experiment, yourself. with vari-
Gus brands atvarious prices. You
will order it ground according
| to the method of brewing you
prefer-medidm grind, medium
fine grind, percolator grind, fine
and drip grind. Methods most
in use are old fashioned, or
boiled coffee! percolated coffee
| filtered or drip coffee anc
vacuum drip coffee. 1t is i'm
pcrtant always to use freshly
boiling water, and the coffe'
should be removed from contac
with the grounds just as soon a
the desired strength is obtained
It may then he kept hot for a
much as hall an hour, withou
too much damage to its flavor
But it should not boil and i
should not become cool. Ono
coffee has cooled, it is impos
Sible to reheat it to any sem
blance of its original taste ant
aroma.

correct them.
Perhaps the boy IS dating you
in an effort to re-arouse in

worrying about IT. Don't let him
know you even suspect such a
thing, and make up your mind
that dating you will become so
interesting that the other lassie
will be completely left in the
cold. Even if it should happen
that he goes back to her. at
! least you've had good experience
in being an entertaining guest,
and when a less fickle lad ap-
| pears, you'll be equipped to
charm him.
If you need help in evaluating
