Defined by Webster’s Diction-
ary, perspicacity is “clearness

ferson helped- write the Consti-
tution of the United States. His-
tory world books state that Jef-
ferson was in France at the
time. ....
The class composed a letter
informing the Ford dealer of
this error.
A reply was received from Mr. |

guests and as guests of Dr. Co- 1
