PUZZLERS
A word puzzle: Complete, I am increasing; behead me, and I am a manly pastime; behead me again, and I am due; behead a third time, and I am part of a bird; curtail me this time, and I am what a football team wishes to do; then behead me, and I am a preposition. Concealed animals: 1. —The would-be artist purchased some paints. 2.—“ Promise me this upon your honour.” 3. —James took the part of the dread ogre. 4. —“Let us play of game of ‘tig,’ Eric.” 5. —“We must all be ready to go at six o’clock.” Hidden names of three new Sunbeams:— 1. —MOTASH MENREAF. 2. —AMYR DORNOG. 3. —TENTNEA LEDHISOCF. Answers to last week’s puzzlers: Word Square.—Cafe, Avis, Film, Esme. Decapitation.—Coat, oat, at.
