From The Enigma
NPL Magazine - Jan. 2015
HALF LEPER

This flat works on two levels. On the first level, the flat is correct as written and needs no changes. On the second level, the first answer word must replace the cueword SCHOOL. Like SCHOOL, it has six letters. The first two and last two letters of this word are the same, and in the same order.  If you drop the first and last two letters of this word, the two remaining letters will replace KENTUCKY and answer the flat on the second level.

In SCHOOL you learn, if you are
    lucky,
Abraham's birthplace was
    KENTUCKY.

Answers:

In CHURCH you learn, if you are 
     lucky,
Abraham's birthplace was
     UR.

Level one: Abraham Lincoln was born in Kentucky.
                  (A common error is that Lincoln was born in Illinois.)

Level two: Biblical Abraham was born in the land of UR (chURch).
