A NINE-CELLED HIVE

By Edith S. Iseman

There is plenty of verbal honey in the nine divisions of this construction, and your search is not likely to result in any stings. The central interlock, perhaps, might be improved upon, but there! We have built puzzles ourselves, and know what the constructor is up against.

D. is absolutely ruthless when it comes to cornering the odd and unusual word, and the unheard-of definition. This puzzle is included especially to show you to what lengths the innocent Cross Word can go when it tries.
