THE FLINTSToNES
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: A newspaper de-
scribes Mrs. John F. Kennedy
as the most charming, most
beautiful young woman to ever
grace the White House. She
is the epitome of perfection
without even trying" My ques-
ton is whether, even though
technically incorrect, "epitome"
has by common usage become
synonymous with apex" or
the most? - Rosemary K,
Overstreet, Milwaukee.
Answer: AS you imply, "epit-
ome," properly used, means a
part representative of the
whole. AS Webster used to say,
"the briefeSt possible statement
giving a complex whole in
miniature"
Times are changing, though.
and the language with them.
It must be conceded that many
otherwise well-spoken people
now use "epitome" as synony-
nous with "acme." The new
Webster Third International,
that paragon of permission lexi-
geography, enters this sense "a
typical representation of ideal
expression; EN- b odim e n t."
Among the authorities cited in
support Of this entry is Richard
Joseph, an able journalist and
travel writer who is probably as
surprised as I am to find him
entered as an authority on
language.
However, the mark of the
careful speaker and writer is
the observance Of nice distinc-
tons Of this sort. If you wish
to refer to q person or thing
as the peak. pinnacle or apex
Of perfection, say so-and re-
serve "epitome" for its more
restricted and particular use.
Note to Irate Readers: Many
Of you have written in to point
out that I don't seem to know
the difference between a hoop
skirt and a harness. In a recent
word game the word "farthin-
gale" appeared and the answer
indicated harness, rather than
hoopskirt. I could explain that
the error consisted merely of
striking the letter Ib" instead

of &c" when it came to tipping
the answers. That would be
true but not so amusing as
DR.. Johnson'S reply in a similar
situation. Chided by a lady for
having an erroneous definition
of "pastern" part of a horses
hoof) in his dictionary, he was
asked: "How could you possibly
make such a mistaken" To
which the great man replied:
Ignorance, madam, sheer
ignorance"
Let's agree, then, that Samuel
johnson and William Morris
are alike in one respect :
Ignorance of horses.

Queer, have voted by more than
3 TO / in favor Of a union shop,
requiring union membership.
The result was announced by
the National Labor Relations

clear-cut union victory in a
series OF test votes which the
NLRB has conducted on the
controversial issue among aero
space industry firms.
The Boeing vote is not bind

request OF a White House board
