Heeds Every Sign
Washington U.R) Presi

back to the White House Sunday
night from their Gettysburg, Pa.,
farm with their driver carefully
heeding every traffic sign.
The President delayed leaving
the farm until 6:15 p.m. EST in
order to watch on television the
completion of the Masters golf
tournament at Augusta, Ga. '
Before leaving the farm, the
President got in a few practice
shots on his private putting

The President made the 83

By Eugena Burnt
Ranger-Naturalist
Even the most lowly mammal
may make a noise to indicate
possession of territory, time for
mating, desire for food, intimida
tion . . . but naturally, man has
perfected communication to its
highest art but it's an odd
thing about the words (or
sounds) he makes.
Many of his words are .echo
words (called onomatopoetic
words). Such words are baa,
boom, chuckle, crash, frizzle,
plunk, snore, tinkle, whang,
whistle and whoosh.
Some other words sound like
what they mean even though
what they signify is not a sound,
point ouj; Helena and Charlton
Laird in their fascinating book,
The Tree of Language (World,
N.Y.). To take two, skitter and
slither. Now you can send a
flat stone skittering over a glassy
lake or you can see a snake
slithering through he grass and
neither the stone nor the snake
will be making a sound. Yet,
as you think about it, skitter
sounds like the motion of the
stone hitting the surface of the
water lightly between jumps.
And slither sounds like the
smooth, gliding motion of the
snake. .
Curiously, some of our words
have a negative but no positive.
Anything which is indelible can
not be erased, but there is no
such word as d e 1 i b 1 e. Even
though an uncouth, unkempt
person should reform his ways,
he would not be couth and
kempt:
Opposite Meanings
Then there are the words
with opposite meanings it took
a Norwegian visitor to my study
to point these out to me. "My
boat is fast to the dock," and
"My boat is fast in the water."
Or, "The string is so raveled I
can't get it undone," and "My
sock is raveled it's coming un
done."
Then there are hundreds of
words that sound exactly alike
but have different meanings. To
pair a few: ail and ale; vale and
veil; bear and bare; flee and
flea; need and knead; seller and
cellar; tier and tear.
But there are some words that
sound alike and are spelled
alike but have different mean
ings. A date can be a fruit or
an appointment; a seal is a large
sea mammal or, a small stamp
to make an impression on pa
per; a steak comes from a steer
but you steer a car; a quail
might quail if it knew you were
about to shoot it; you go to
the store for a pound of butter;
you pound a nail; and if your
dog hasn't license, he may be
taken to the pound.
Of such is our communica
tion; (Released by ,
McClure Newspaper Syndicate)
Free: By special arrangement
with the editors of the Encyclo
pedia Americana, my panel of
judges will award each week to
the reader who sends me the
best true-life nature adventure,
the best nature observation, or
the best question on nature and

Most glamorous car In a generation
C3hr
For Chrysler Owners the era of lurch, lean and lunge has
ended. Torsion-Aire Ride. . , Chrysler's all-new suspension
. . . makes road travel a relaxing new kind of motion I
In the glamorous new Chrysler there's no more tensing your
self against sudden stops ... no more leaning against
curves ... no more jolting and bobbing en rough roads. The
reason is Torsion-Aire Ride, greatest . automotive ride
improTement in 20 years.
This new ride is an exclusive combination of suspension
features that make Chrysler the smoothest sailing land
yacht afloat. No other car in its priee class has torsion bars
and rubber-isolated ball-joints and outrigger rear spring and
a new lower center of gravity. Together, they spell a new
sensation in motoring the others can't even imitate.
This history-making new development is just one of the new
experiences awaiting you in the Mighty Chrysler for 1957.
You're in for a pleasant surprise, for example, when you
learn how easy it is to own. The Mighty Chrysler actually
costs no more than many models of the medium- and even
low-priced cars . . . cars that do not have Torsion-Aire Ride,
new pushbutton TorqueFlite drive and other Chrysler
feature. Come in today and drive the Mighty Chrysler.
