The engaging pastime which has made dictionaries best sellers, first took Great Britain by storm nnd then crossed into France where it overcame the prejudices of thou. n;i nils uf citizens or that nation which more than tiny other In Europe, hud been famous for Us philological Insularity and for Its passionate Insistence, upon the pur fly of its verbal expressiveness. Now the fad. disguised as 'l.'In dovlnollo delle Parole Incroclute' hao crossed the Alps Into Italy and and Its proponents predict con lidetttly that nothing can stop Its advance into the heart of central Kiirnpe and even into the geo graphical crazy tullt of the Hulk uns where languages and dialects abound.

The newspaper announces tt will publish a puzzle each week and offers 8:'. 000 lire in prizes for accurate solutions during the year.

It consists of two park ways, one on either side of the railroad enclosed by a concrete curb whleh divides the travel, causing the motorist going in one direction to pass on the right or the parkway, while traffic In the opposite goes to the left, v One section of curb begins 70 feet from the end of the rail road t les on eh her side or t he railroad, and is constructed along the center line or the highway to the end of the lies.
