In introducing as a regular feature to its readera. The Gaiette-Times through the Publishers Autocaster Service of New York City, thia week of fers a puttie of "no interlocked units." Thi, puttie, as arranged by Lillian Middleditch, ia an excellent example of the "no interlocked units" desifrn. It will be observed that the black spaces are so arranged in the design that no word or group of words is locked off from the other words or groups throughout the puttie. In other words, the solver of the puttie may at well start at the lower righ,t hand corner aa at the upper left-hand corner, or No. 1. An arrangement of this kind permits a wide approach to the correct solution, aa there are keys all over the puttie. Miss Middleditch 's puttie ia filled with simple words, but still containing enough "twlters" to make ita working very interesting. Work it now then aave it until next week when the correct answer will be published. If, you want to arrange a puttie and aend it in to this newspaper, we will be mighty glad to publish it.
