was against the body, not the
soul, for that was an emination
from God himself and stamped
with his own immortality. Pc

THE WORD "WINTER."
Said to Have Originally Indicates
Wetness, Not Goodness.

There is a prevailing impression that
there is something i'll the word win
ter" that signifies cold, and the sea
son is usually associated with the idea
of low temperature, but where the
word originated there was little of
winter as we understand it, while
there was a great deal of moisture at
the time the earth was nearest to the
SUM- so that it is not the temperature
but the atmospheric condition that has
given US the word.
The word winter" as we use it, is
found with but slight notifications in
all the branches of the Aryan Ian
guages, for the idea of wetness assO-
ciated with the season was given to it
before the Aryan family was divided.
If we go to the root of the word we
find "wad," with the Specification of to
well, to wash out, to moisten or make
wet. Our Aryan ancestors used that
root to apply to all conditions of
moisture, and many words besides
winter have grown out Of it. wet and
water being among them.
This root "wad'' is in the Sanskrit as
'udan,' water Anglo-Saxon has wac
ter" and in Latin we have ''unda,"
wave, from which we get our "inun-
date"
Our Danish and Swedish cousins
changed the wv into a " and have
winter In Icelandic it is 'vetir,"
and the old high German has win
tar" and it is winter in German.
These four words are ali from the
Teutonic base "wata,' which means
wet So it has been moisture that has
been indicated from the birth of the
root on which all Of the different words
in a dozen languages have grown

The dam is have an upstream
slope of / foot in 3, and a down
stream slope of / foot in 2 " making
the total up and down stream base
500 feet for height of lao feet.
Vast quantities of rock will be usd i'll
the construction, but between the
main upper and lower walls will be
puddled soil, aiken from the banks to
the east and north of the dam, the
soil being stripped there by steam
shovels, and hauled in by locomotives,
to make the impervious dam that
solid rock would not make This ex-
cayation will all be from above the
dam, giving that much more storage
capaciy to the reservoir, as as least
part of this territory to be stripped
will be under the water level for the
reservoir.
The tunnel which is to carry the
water of the Big Wood River while
the main dam is being built, is now
almost completed. 1t has been a big
job more than 700 feet through solid
lava, a tunnel that with it's foot-and-
a-half concrete walls is still 5x12 feet
in size The lining is being put in as
the work progresses, and the work is
carrid on from both ends, so that it
will soon be finished. A force of 325
men is employed, mostly on this work.
A small diversion dam, small only
rlatiyely, for it is 40 feet highs be-
ing built across the rivr just below
the tunnel and this will store 10000
acre feet of water for the Richfield
and south Gooding tracts this var.
When the river is draind, this small
er dam will be the upstream face of
the main structure. The dam is not
yet closed in, but is complete all but
a narrow channel in the center. 1t
can be closed very easily, and the
water raised to the height of As feet.
The tunnel is estimated to carry the
entire flow of the river. 1t will be
lined with cast-iron tubing, for some
distance from the upper end, to fur
Their strengthen the concrete lining.
The lining is cast in sections, but even
the sectional pieces are massive
things.
The company plans and blue prints
are a delight to a man interesed in
mechanics, they are so complete and
accurately drawn. This might be ex-
pected of one of the foremost engin-
eering companies in the world. 4

SIX SONS ACT
As PAIL BEARERS
Especial to THE TIMEs.)

Griffith, Ind, Dec, 23.-The touching
spectacle OF six strong sons, them
selves a credit to their father. acting
as pallbearers for their sire, was pre-
scented to a large number of people at
ScLererville yesterday when the late
John Grimmer was buried.
Services were held at ST. MichaePs
church, and the Rev. VIM. Berg paid
a glowing tribute to the deceased pio-
neer, picturing him as a man of ster-
ling character and unblemished reputa-
ton. He exhorted his listeners to fol-
low the example of Mr.. Grimmer, who
during his four months of severe i'll
ness from rheumatism and tuberculosis,
bore his sufferings with great forth
tute and resignation. Interment took
place at the Schererville Catholic ceme-
terry
Mr.. Grimmer was SO years old and
lived near Schererville since 1862. In
politics he was staunch and unwaVer-
ing democrat. and while he was never
an ofhceholder he always took a deep
interest in the county's political affairs.
Mr.. Grimmer is survived by a widow
and six sons to mourn his loss. his only
daughter having died nine years ago.
His six sons, who acted as pallbearers,
and Joe Grimmer of Griffith. Michael
Grimmer of Highland. and Peter and
William Grimmer of Schererville. A
great following of friends and relatives
attended the funeral

North township Coroner Shank1in will
have personal charge OF more coroners
cases than any other Incumbent in the
history OF the office.
An interesting thing about the juris-
diction given each of the deputies is
the fact that the deaths which occur
at Cedar Lake and there are a num-
Der OF them each season. will be d.
vided up between DR.. Houk at Crown
Point, who will have charge of all Of
the deaths which occur on the west
side of the lake In the northern part
Of Hanover township, and DIR. Sheets
of Lowell will have charge OF all Of
the deaths which occur on the west
side of the lake in Hanover township.
The east side OF the lake is in Center
township and consequently DR.. Houk
OF Crown Point will have charge OF
the territory on this side of the lake.
NOT NEW TO SHANKLTN.
Dr. shankIin comes to the Office OF
coroner of Lake county with a great
deal of experience. AS chief deputy
coroner he practically had charge Of
the coroner's Office during the long ILL
ness of Coroner Gordon of Hobart.
AS a result he will not have to be
broken in, but will know the office
practically as well as his predecessor
when he takes UP his new duties at
the beginning of the new year.
Coroner Gordon has made capable
official in spite of the fact that long
period of Ill health made it necessary
for him to turn over most of the work
of his Office to his deputies, for several
months at time
At present the coroner derives his In
come from the office by means of fees.
1t Is interesting to note, however, that
counties which have population of
over 100, 900 are required by law to pay
their coroners a salary of $4,000 instead
of the fees they collect. DR.. Shanklin
estimates that it will be 1920 before
the salary system replaces the fee sys-
tenn for the law is based on the last
federal census.

fGOnEfnu9d from rage Ono.4
pany A few years ago the Simplex
decided to give each of their employees
a turkey for Christmas. 1t was a very
kind and charitable idea, but it caused
no end Of trouble.
II one of the foreigners happened
to get a turkey that weighed two
pounds less than the one his neighbor
received. he was angry about 1t. and
in the scramble for turkeys there were
a number of quarrels. One man who
worked for the company also had three
sons who were also employed there.
Every year this man and his sons
would each take a turkey, and that
family lived on turkey for several
weeks after Christmas. Some of his
fellow employees were unkind enough
to suggest that the Blank family was
little f1oggish in taking so many of
those Simplex turkeys
For this reason Christmas remem-
ORANGES are made to only the heads of
departments, who are not so likely to
look their gift horses in the mouth
Public Is Generous.
There are, however, a number of en-
ployes who usually fare very well at
the hands of the general public. A
number Of Hammond business men
make IT a point to send the telephone
operators a box of candy each year to
show their appreciation Of the service
they have rendered during the year
In large concerns most business men
are working under pressure and they
are often very impatient with the teIe-
phone operators when they are unable
to make connections as soon as they
think they ought to. If they stopped
might make an immediate connection
| impossible they regret a hasty word to
the hardest working and most abused
person in the World-the telephone
operator. But the Christmas spirit
makes them think of her, and large
number of boxes of candy are annually
sent to the operators at central
Christmas Spirit Abroad.
| The postoffice employees, too, are the
recipients of favors at the hands of the
general public at Christmas time, and
a popular mail carrier or a mailing
clerk who has been accommodating In
getting off important letters are sure
to receive a goodly number of cigars
each year.
The Christmas spirit is pretty gen
orally prevalent in the land, however
and it has become the custom of those
| who continually receive business favors
to remember those who grant them al
Christmas time.

The evidence does not show that the
accident was due to any faulty method
Of construction. nor does It show that
the architects were guilty OF contri-
butOry negligence in specifying cor
nice that projected out that far.
Kuhlman ON the Job.
IT is understood that Building Com
missioner Kuhlman Inspected the work
at noon just before the accident hap
pened; that he advised that course of
brick be laid on top of the terra Gotta
cornice before the laying OF the cornice
was carried any farther.
It is also understood that Contractor
Lavene ordered his men. in the pres
ence of Inspector kaufman, to stop lay
ing terra Gotta until that which had
already been laid had been ballasted
with the coursest of brick, which are
laid on top OF II.
While the fact was not incorporated
in DR.. ShanlSlin's report, 1t is further
understood that one of the men replied
that he would finish laying terra Gotta
to point where the structural iron
rested on the wall and later would
top of the job with the course brick.
If this workingman had obeyed or
6ers and the brick had been laid on
the terra Gotta before any more cornice
had been laid the chances are that the
accident would not have happened.
