Just the same, there are some “how-evers.” You’ve got to pick a model of good design, one suited to your water ways, your load and your motor or you may not have anything worth putting together. Don’t make your first attempt anything as large as an outboard cruiser. Practice with a pram will give you fundamental knowledge that can pay off if you want to tackle a big boat later. Practically all kit boats are made of sheet plywood. For mak ing assembly easy, there’s nothing like plywood. It makes a good boat—for most small boats there is no better material. I Plywood has one drawback, how ever—it does not take abrasion too well. If you want to keep you boat always tied at a pier, or if you are going to drag it on shal low bottoms or pebbly beaches, usually it’ll be best to pass up the plywood and kit idea. A true round-bottom boat can’t be built from sheet plywood.. It won’t bend that way. That’s why you don’t find canoe kits on the market; that’s why you can’t buy an old-time “resort type” rowboat in kit form. But you can buy, in a kit, an outboard runabout that acts much like the standard ready made roundbottoms that aYe wide ly sold. There isn’t much round to the bottom, but neither is there to the standerd outboard round- bottom. It wouldn’t have the speed the public wants, if there were. To get down to it, with kit boats as with all others, most important is how good the design is—all lines of the desigr. That’s more important often than whether it classes as round, V, or what have you. A sheet plywood V-bottom or semiround bottom designed by a real expert and powered as he intended may not only be faster but more sea-worthy, too, than a roundbottom the lines of which aren’t so good. The metal thallium gets its name from the Greek word thallos, mean ing “green twig.” It shows as a green line in the spectroscope.

Scobell Armstrong, 75- year-old divorce court veteran, warned men this week against four kinds of women: 1. Cats. “Let him see whether her eyes are warm, bright and kind, or whether they are catty. If they are catty, let him sheer off.” 2. Saintly women. “Saints are wonderful, but rather difficult for sinners to live with.” 3. The fun-mad type. “The wife who is always wanting you to go to dances, however tired you are, can be very trying.” 4. Stupid women. “Marriage with a fool, however sweet and lovely she may be ,is a drab af fair for the cleverer partner—^nd she will give him stupid children.” Judge Armstrong delivered this distillation of his long experience to members of the Church of Eng land Men’s Society here. His qualifications ? “I have put asunder between 1,- 000 and 1,500 couples.” IBOYS ARE THAT WAY By J. M. ELEAZER I always liked the winter woods. There is an eerie softness there. And the biting frosts lay low the spooky places and you can see where you are going. It is then that we used to ex plore the snaky spots and the swamp areas that were frighten ing in their jungle barb of sum mer. We usually had a good snow or two back then. We looked for ward longingly for them. If it was during the daylight hours, we got out in it. My favorite place was the deep woods. There to look up into the dark and infinite mists out of which beautiful falling snow crystals came was fairyland in deed. And, as the flakes came faster and faster, a growing still ness enveloped the whole out of doors. When it got heavy upon the ground, I hated to mar it by walking on the gleaming carpet. As soon as Jhe snowfall had fin ished, we were ready for the hunt, for right after that, a track meant a rabbit. For he hadn’t had time to go far. We would spend anxious mo ments getting ready. We didn’t have anything like boots or leg- gins. So our standard remedy was to wrap our feet and legs in strips of burlap, much as the wrapped leggins of World War I. Then we felt a bit secure against the snow, and out we would go. But the frayed strings of burlap immediately started catching snow and it would become impacted there.. Soon a smalf ball of it was dangling from each frayed part, as it froze into solid ice there. So every now and then we would have to sit down and cut those things loose, for some of ’em would form underfoot and make walking hard. Before long the wrapping would start coming loose, and we’d just let it go, for there was no satisfactory fixing the cold, wet, icy stuff. Then we were down to our bare brogans. They were shoes of rough unglaz ed leather and leaked rather much. But that mattered little, as long as the hunt was good. Finally we finished and went home with a batch of rabbits, and the parental scolding was ready for not having come home sooner, with our wet feet. But we never had the sen sation of their being cold, for in terest in the hunt, the snow, and the great out of doors was too great then for us to think about that Colds, sore throat, and often the croup was our penalty. But that impressed us little.
