JHERE'S & new kind of iwissler. Oan you cut the figure inte four pieces s0 that the pieces can be put together to form a square? Yesterday’s Answer. ‘There were 39 persons involved in the Christmas party kissing; 14 mar- ried individuals, 3 widows, 12 single men and boys, and 10 young ladies and girls. If every one had kissed eyery one else there would have been 741 kisses plus 120 if the single men and boys kissed the young ladies and girls again or a total of 861. The fol- lowing deductions must then be made: 42 becsuse no married man kissed & married woman other than his wife, 171 because no male kissed another male, 3 because the widows did not kiss one another. With these deduc- tions, we find the total number of kisses to be 645. (Coprright, 19372 [ ' man tonight at 8. | stallation sermon of Interdenomina- | THE EVENING ERV } STAR, WASHINGTON, 1.
