expression short = lived" or
"long-lived"-but no two speak
ers seem to pronounce it the
same. How should it be said
to rhyme with "hive" or with
"give"?-L. NJ, Pittsburgh.
Answer: There is only one
correct pronunciation Of lived"
in such compounds - with a
long 81" to rhyme with
"shrived" or "wiVed." Yet all
of us have heard otherwise
well-spoken people pronounce
it with a short a." as in the
past tense of the word "live"::
"He lived there once"
Why is this error so COM
mon? Simply because lived"
is not the word many people
think it is. 1t has no connec-
ton with the verb Ito live"
when used in such combina-
tions as "short-lived" and
'long- lived" Here it is actually
a blend of "life" and led" and
means having a certain kind
or duration of life or lives" So
if you'll bear in mind that this
lived" is derived from life
rather than "live." you'll have
no trouble pronouncing 1t cor
rectly.

Question; My teen-age
daughter is horse crazy -
which. ] guses. is better than
being boy crazy. Tonight she
was telling me about the won-
ders Of the quarter horse" I
didn't want to look more stupid
than dads usually seem, so I
didn't let on that I never heard
of a quarter horse. Neither. ap-
parently did my dictionary. So
to you, dear Word Man, this
question: how can a quarter
horse be a whole horse-and
what makes it so darn won-
derful2-J. F. Grant, Wash
ington, D. c.
Answer: Quarter horses were
originally developed by the
earliest settlers in Virginia
more than 200 years ago. They
got their name from the fact
that, since there were no race
tracks in those days, they were
raced on short paths about a
quarter of a mile long. Later
they were crossbred with thor
oughbreds to improve their
quality and performance. Be-
cause Of their remarkable speed
for short dashes, they make
ideal COW ponies and are widely
used on Western ranches as
"cutting ponies. --

GSM Launches New
'7-Sfar' Health
Insurance Series

Golden State Mutual Life In
surance Company has launched a
new compaign to introduce a new
line of health insurance policies to
be known as GSM's 7-Star Health
Insurance Series, it was announced
by A. j. Williams, vice president
agency officer of the firm.
The new series includes policies
covering hospital and surgical ex-
|penses under both Individual and
family-group plans, all with new
liberalized benefits, Williams said.
One of the important features
of the 7-Star Family Group Policy,
he noted, is a provision for auto
matte coverage for new children
born after the policy is in force,
from the time they are Is days
old until their first, birthday. There
is no increase in the family's pre-
MUM on the policy during this
period.
A loss-of-income plan will soon
be added to the 7-Star series, ac-
cording to Williams.

The old scout retained his sense

what his first name meant in the
Apache language, JUS Cooley only
shrugged and mumbled, "That was

Ground breaking ceremonies last
week initiated the construction OF
a new building to be located al
Desert Lane and 9th Street in the
South Mountain foothills area. This
will be the new home of the South
Mountain Unit of Jehovah's Wit
nesses. Rapid expansion has called
for the recent dividing of what was
formerly one congregation, South
Unit. Building plans are being
jointly handled by MIR. Charles Kes-
singer, presiding minister of South
Mountain congregation and by Mr..
Edward Bucey, presiding minister
of South congregation. Portions of
the new structure have been SUBJ
contracted, however, much of the
work will be done by Witnesses,
some of whom are. experts in the
various building trades.
The outstanding growth of Je-
hovah's Witnesses world wide in
the past few years has challenged
building program that would keep
abreast with the rate of growth.
Therefore, temporarily many con-
gregations are forced to use the
same meeting places, as is the
case here. According to the latest
figures released from the Watch
tower Bible and Tract Society of
New York, there arc now 21,557
congregations operating in 1876
lands around the earth. Upwards
of 1000 new congregations being
formed in the last two years.
Mr.. Kessinger said: "Jehovah's
Witnesses attribute this growth
to their improved teaching
methods and especially to their
door to door type of ministry. thus
bringing the message to the peo-
pie instead of endeavoring to bring
the people to the message.
