THE MOCKERY OF DEATH One of the unsolved mysteries of the late Rudyard life was why he never was honored by being named poet laureate.

Mercury freezes at 39 degrees below zero it. Inaccuracis of that type are justified in newspaper under the the headline writer takes “editorial license,” a grammatical de- rpety by writers who wish to deviate from strict fact in order to gain effect Only one reader of that headline noted the deviation—a high school student who happened to remember in his study of the metal mercury that it freezes at 39 degrees below zero Fehrenheit. There may have been others, but they did not call the editor's attention to the deviation.
