Prom a game between H Wo!f-A. Rubinstein. Tepliti-Schonau, 1922: Black't position Is superior. He controls the open knieht's file and has a knight which is here much stronger than hia oppenent'a bishop, and finally he hag the better pawn position. A little pustl Is sufliclent finally to tip the balance.
Black begins simply with his queen a rook's pawn offering this, and later still the king s rook's pawn, partly on combinative grounds and partly sensing that their acceptance and the Increase of the sphere of action of the black pieces following their disappearance must, under the circumstances, soon lead to a decision.

A mot ion. of the body or limbs; an act of courtesy or diplomacy. From the large number of questions received by this column about today's word, It is evident that many persons, even those of good education, are not sure whether the first syllable should be like "guess" or like "Jess." The "g" must have the soft sound of "j" as in gem, not the hard sound of "g" aa in get. The second syllable, Jure, as in picture, nature, furniture, nlgnuturr, III era tn re, etc.. mny be pronounced either "clier" or "tyoor, but never "choor." The New Webster's gives "fher" as "the natural pronunciation in general use by unaffected speakers." Correct pronunciation: first choice, JUSS-chcr; second choice, Ji:SH-lyoor. (Capitals Indicate. 'syllables to be accented.) Nte ucau gxte Is a French term that means a graceful ges-. ture or act intended to bo pleasing or conciliatory, neau rhymes with toe; the "g" in rcMo has the "zh" sound as in nznrp. Correct pronunciation: boe.

BY FRANK fOI.BV GESTURE N0UX.
A mot ion. of the body or limbs; an act of courtesy or diplomacy. From the large number of questions received by this column about today's word, It is evident that many persons, even those of good education, are not sure whether the first syllable should be like "guess" or like "Jess." The "g" must have the soft sound of "j" as in gem, not the hard sound of "g" aa in get. The second syllable, Jure, as in picture, nature, furniture, nlgnuturr, III era tn re, etc.. mny be pronounced either "clier" or "tyoor, but never "choor." The New Webster's gives "fher" as "the natural pronunciation in general use by unaffected speakers." Correct pronunciation: first choice, JUSS-chcr; second choice, Ji:SH-lyoor. (Capitals Indicate. 'syllables to be accented.) Nte ucau gxte Is a French term that means a graceful ges-. ture or act intended to bo pleasing or conciliatory, neau rhymes with toe; the "g" in rcMo has the "zh" sound as in nznrp. Correct pronunciation: boe.
