Take My Word for It By Frank Colby Q. My English class and I are hoping that you may find time to give us one of your sane discussion^ on the use of the word ''like" in such constructions as, "It looks like it will rain.” Perhaps your eminent colleague with the unpronounceable name will find the rule for us.— Mrs. T. H. M. A. My assistant, Dr. Etaoin Shrd lu says: "Harumph! The copulative use of ‘like’ in introducing a com plete clause or an incomplete clause in which either the subject or predicate must be contexually sup plied is a syntactical impropriety. Harumph!” Here is a simple ruie expressea in simple language: Do not use “like” for “as,” “as if” or "as though.” If either “as,” "as if” or “as though” makes sense, do not use "like.” Otherwise "like” will be correct. Examples (“like” used incorrectly). “It looks like it will rain.” Since either “as if” or “as though' makes sense, "like” is incorrect. Right: It looks as if (as though) it will rain. “I hope to succeed like you have.” In this sentence "as” makes sense. Therefore: I hope to succeed as you have. “I feel like I had slept for days.” Either “as if” or “as though" makes sense. Therefore: I feel as if (as though) I had slept for days. Examples (“like” used correctly). I hope to be like my father. Neither “as,” “as if” nor "as though” makes sense. “Like” is correct. For the same reason these sen tences are correct: She is like her mother. I plan to furnish my house like yours. I feel like taking a walk. It looks like a good idea. She looks like a different person. He acted like a fool. I disapprove of talk like that. It was like her to think of ua. Such forms ax "like duck to water, like a fish out of water, like mother used to make,” etc., were once frowned upon: but they are now re garded as good idiomatic usage.

In the eyes of this observer Sidney ; Sllodor of Philadelphia ranks with the great tournament players of all time. My observation has been at close range, for during the past ' decade it has been my good fortune to have Mr. Silodor as a partner in numerous national and world cham pionships. His name is inscribed on every major trophy but one. The one that has so far eluded him is the trophy emblematic of the Masters’ Individual championship, but failure thus far to annex thia title cannot be attributed to his lack of trying. In support of this contention I cite today’s hand which I played with him in the recent Masters’ Individual in New York City. The auction is characteristic of so many of the part-score battles in match point play, where each deal ' is a separate contest. These fre- I quently develop into out and out dog fights, in which the war cry la "a bucket of blood for 60 points '’ '?■ I sat South and made the routine 4 opening of one club. West’s vul nerable overcall on such an anaemio suit would be frowned upon in rub ber bridge, but is not looked upon with disfavor in match play. East chose to bid a spade and I felt that I had one more shot coming to me, which I took in the form of a one no-trump bid. West and North passed and East decided not to re tire from the battle, contesting with , a bid of two hearts. If It is your, purpose to take issue with this call please do not address me. I am merely the reporter in the case and you may have East's mailing ad- j dress upon application This was 1 passed around to Sllodor in the North position and his action at this point would be unthinkable in rubber bridge or in a contest with total point scoring. He calculated that the opposition had deprived us of the privilege of playing for the part score, at which we could very likely have scored more than 100 points (a bonus of 50 points is awarded in tournament play for the fulfillment of a part score contract) and the only way in which we could be adequately com pensated was to defeat the enemy at a doubled contract which would j yield 200 points. My opening club bid, followed by a I voluntary bid of one no-trump in the face of partner's pass, had ! portrayed a strong hand and he hoped I could garner four tricks. He was reasonably sure he would cash the queen of hearts and was willing to gamble that the king of diamonds would be a winner. If my no-trump bid had about it the least bit of poetic license I need not stand for the double. However, my hand was suitable for the purpose and as you will observe there was no way declarer could avoid the loss of six tricks. The 200 points yielded us a top score. I don’t recommend this type of double for home use. I merely wanted you to see that flilodoi really was trying. (Copyrttht. 194S, by Chari#* H. Oerrn > Nature's Children Desert Builder. 3y Lillian Cox Athay Nature’s children are always one jump ahead of man. Centuries be fore man had thought of building barbed-wire entanglements to keep captives in and foes out, the white throated rats of the desert had per fected a barricade about their cas tle. Further, the thick walls of the collected Cactuses are ample pro tection against the intense rays of the hot sun. These builders wear clean, aoft hair coats. Their black eyes are large and friendly, their very long whiskers twitch in an inquiring fashion. There is none of the fur tive, aggressive and obnoxious hab its of the Norway rat present. Aa pets they are interesting. Travelers along desert roads are always Intrigued by the mounds of debris built up. Some of them are 5 feet high, usually located in the'’ very center of the branches of the cholla cactus, fortress material bris tling with sharp penetrating spines. The builder cleverly handles the prickly building material that man could not have managed without thick gloves and tools. The only implements are sharp teeth and ca pacious Jaws. To escape many foes —skunks, bobcats, coyotes and snakes—rats work at night. The amount of material collected and transported, not mentioning the character of it, staggers the imagi nation. uespite me excellent protective material, the builder i* not without her troubles. It is not unusual to see a frightened mother appear sud denly on the roof of her home with a limp baby in her mouth. Watch a bit longer and you will gee the long, sinewy form of the red racer or whip snake, both extremely fond of tender rat babies. If the nursery has been located near a mesquite tree, the mother, with whiskers all a-tremble, runs up the trunk, plac ing her Infant in a crotch. Then she races down again to secure an other baby. Working furiously, she overlooks the other enemies whose strong talons can lift her infant with ease. Sometimes one infant is grasped in her mouth and a wee '■straphanger" holds on fast beneath. The anxiety of the mother for the welfare of her young marks every move. LIFE'S LIKE THAT I wife and one for her mother, who lives with us!"
