WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: I was always under
the impression that there was
no such word as "irregardless"
and have had several arguments
about it. have recently been
advised that this word is now
included in some new diction-
aries. Will you be kind enough
to set me straight as to whether
! am right or wrong on this
word?-R. NJ, Milwaukee. Wis.
Answer: In a sense you are
both right and wrong. There is
indeed such a word as ''irregard-
less" and it is entered in some
of the newer dictionaries. But
1t is carefully labeled "substand-
ard or humorous. 1t is unneces-
sarily redundant. The first
syllable doesn't add anything to
the meaning Of regardless" So
you will not hear 'irregardless''
used by any careful speaker.
A point worth noting, by the
way. is that the mere fact of in
cluSion in a dictionary does not
make a word suitable for gen.
eral use. 1t proves nothing more
than that there is such a word.
Today's dictionaries attempt

Of Housewives
BY the Associated Press


Representative Coya Knutson
Democrat of Minnesota, says
American housewives like trad

that they know more about shop

perts put together"
Interrupting testimony of
Government marketing special
lists on the relationship between
stamps and food costs, Mrs
KnutSon said the housewife
shops where she gets the best
value"
IF trading stamps are part
of that value, she will rave
them" she said. IF they aren't
she won't.
II know in my own State that
IS per cent of the housewives
save stamps, and that they like
them"
Mrs. Knutson. a member OF

tee investigating retail food
costs, let fly at what she said
have been frivolous charges
about the feather-headed Amer
lean housewife"
II have heard it seriously said
that the average American

bumblebee. and that she is there

ored stamps. and that collection
of these stamps has become
something of hobby with her"

Carl Brattins
Return From
Southern Vacation

Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Brattin re-
turned Friday evening from a va
cation trip on which they spent
three months at st. Petersburg,
Florida, and returned by way OF
Dallas, Texas, where they enjoyed
a week at the home of Mrs. Brat
tins brother, Allen Redding and
family.
MIR. Brattin tells US that they
had a wonderful time in st. Pet
ersburg, where thousands of peo-
pie go annually for rest and re-
Taxation. They were delightfully."-
located in the heart of the city,
where they we're fortunate in be-
ing within walking distance of all
places of interest, especially nice
considering they had made the
trip by train and did not have
access to a car.
Communications received from
MI. 3rattin during their stay there
have been previously pubiisned
telling of the many places of in
terest they visited.
At this time Mr.. Brattin men
toned especially the fact that they
were within three blocks of Al
Lang Field, where major baseball
games were played from March
s to April 8 inclusive, and being
baseball fans, Mr.. Brattin and his
wife attended many of the games.
The highlight of other entertain
ment enjoyed was a concert put
on at the First Methodist church,
one of the largest in the South, by
the Organists' Guild of st. Pet
ersburg, in which 500 voices from
the various churches in the city,
took part. The theme of the con-
cert was Cathedral Windows"
and each number on the program
was sung before one of the beau
tiful stained glass windows, which
was lighted from the rear, and
each of which portrayed a Biblical
scene. The outstanding window at
he very front of the church de-
,icted THE Lords Supper" This
yery impressive concert was in
zeeping with the Easter season.
The concluding number vas the
Hallelujah Chorus" sung by the
ntire 500-voice choir. !
