Answer:  “SCULPT–SURE“

(Uh oh!  Stinker alert!  But, I like it.  It made me think.  The answer wasn’t a gimme.  I had to think what word was intentionally omitted.  For some reason, it took me a couple of minutes to think of sculpt.  No new clue words today, but three of the jumbles were new.  We have seen “smurt” before.  The answer letter layout was a splendid jumble.  Nothing given away.  And, the cartoon was very . . . artistic.  A great jumble.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR

(Maybe our world leaders could benefit from a transcendental meditation symposium!  The sad thing is, when it comes to war it’s not a matter of inner peace.  It’s a matter of abject greed.  Sadly, the powers behind the wars are completely at peace with their greed.  And, don’t think that our world leaders are necessarily the same as the powers behind the wars.  Let’s work to elect more independent leaders.  One’s not owing to various special interests.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
