PROMOTED
By TED KESTING
The one big question in the
mind of a man or boy who is
thinking of buying a boat in kit
form is, “C#n I put it together;
so I’ll have a good boat?”
Willard Crandall, expert on all
matters concerning boating, says
of course you can if you’re at
all handy with tools. . 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.

SOME FEMALE TYPES
YOU WOULD NOT WANT
PENZANCE, England, Jan. 31—
Judge J. 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.
