BEAR 0 530 COT DEG NeGRo RUG Explanations of More Difficult Clues: CLUES ACROSS It's no great problem to remove SILT: you dredge it out. You do not remove SALT from the water: remove the water from the SALT. The regular process is to distil the mixture removing the water.

"Success" being in the singular favors LAST. Her LAST success, but, rather her PAST successes (plural). 7. The wording and the word "in" is more apt to HOUR. One might enjoy an HOUR IN Paris, or TOUR AROUND Paris.

"Should not be necessary" would mean eliminate them altogether. Even an idealist would hardly be in favor of the total abolition of ARMS of all kinds. He might well favor eliminating or abolishing the necessity for ALMS, however. 10. BEAR is the stronger answer, since not only does it MEAN WEAR (in this context) but also goes further and gives a REASON why they can't WEAR wool next to their skin -they just can't BEAR it.

17. A WIT can usually hold his own argument and discussion. Physically a FIT man will find it sible, even though FIT, to hold his own against a man who might well be stronger and heavier than himself. 18. "Sometimes difficult" favors WORD.

It is of OFTEN difficult, and frequently impossible, to get JUST the WORK you want. CLUES DOWN 1. GALE must surely apply. But there is no reason to assume that the men concerned are not fully competent to handle a heavy BALE, which is quite a usual sort of thing when loading a ship. 2.

Since we see so many unexpected sights these days we can hardly say these give you a START but they do make you STARE sometimes. 3. The clue says "may which points to LAMP. A LIMP should definitely help; so also shouid LUMP of some kind both of which are positive identifying marks. A LAMP "may if it is dark, for example, 9.

SITTER is a certain answer while SISTER is not. How can the parents "decide to have" little SISTER. It might turn out to be little brother. 13. LETTER is the more acceptable answer.

Unfortunate though it be, it is unlikely that ALL of the other little patients are getting BETTER. Furthermore, does this little child KNOW it is not getting BETTER? 15. NINE tends to justify the tion of at least one or two GROWN assumpdaughters hence the young men. NICE daughters may be only two in number, and again they may be just babies. 20.

The high slow LOB often beats man IF he's OUT OF POSITION. and probably only then. The difficult LOW ball often beats a man who is IN position. 21. GUN best suits the clue.

Buying GIN. a man may ask for a PARTICULAR BRAND rather than special GUNS vary a lot in type and purpose, and one might well ask for a special KIND. For PRUZZLE NO. 89 See SUNDAY NEWS May 20.
