This comes from one of those page-a-day calendars. There are many dozens of such torn-off pages stashed all over the place, around here. I'll never see them all. ?
In each puzzle below, we've strung together a series of words in a specific category, removed one letter from each word, and then closed up the spaces. The letters we removed, in order, spell another other item in that category.
For example: E R C U R Y S T U R N E A T H V E N U is missing the M from MERCURY, the A from SATURN, the R from EARTH, and the S from VENUS, which together spell MARS -- a planet, like the other items in that category.
Can you figure out the original words and the extra item spelled by the missing letters?
1. W T E R F R E E A T H
2. O L L A K M U C O D O R
3. F T H E R N C L E I E C E S I S E R
4. A L H A R O X
