more convincing it would be if the speakers them- nelves looked to have benefited more from practising what they preach.

If the man who promised minic were to have with him a wife who was swamped in it; if the other were to drive off in even quite a modest limousine... instead of hanging around the park gates in the hope of amall free-will offerings, 1, in other rds, the land of mlik and honey were to be made to seem

FACT The Man In Overalls Gets His

Way

By BASIL CARDEW

HE fashion designer's honeymoon in the motor works is over. At last week's preview of the 1952 Motor Show at Earl's Court it was clear that the men with oil on their hands have won back their right to say what our new cars. should be like..

The 20 brand-new models (in a show of 300 cars) made the American mouth-organ radiator types look grotesque and old-fashioned. In place of the super- bulbous, all curvaceous cars of 1950 and 1951 our makers have found dignified modifications which LOOK British.

But you need to look beyond the coachwork to see the real achievements ut the year. And what range of improvements the technicians have to offer!

Why we say, Quan-

dary.

A "quandary" is a state of perplexity and there are at least three possible sources of the word's origin. Probably It comes from the "old English "condaryo" which was itself short for "hypo-condaryo” and meant a morbid ́or infected state of mind. It is also thought to be short for the French "Qu'en diral-jo?” which means: "What shall I say of it?" Thirdly, it may have come from the Middle English wandreth, which meant peril, or evil plight,
