Still Dispute Names Origin

were all talking about "Alva Shawys
French name for Rickreall." " lie al
so says the Indians gave peculiar
slur to the first syllable, the letter
"ru being indistinct, something IKE
the letter 81.
Judge S. 7. Burch, also a pioneer
of 1917, says that "Rickreall y was
the only name known for this stream
among the early settlers, LA Gre
ole' being later innovation. lie
also noticed that the Indians gave
putteral sound to the first syllable,
making the first letter difficult to rec
ognize.
I am also informed by members OF
Judge R. P. Boise's family that the
Judge recognized Rickreall' as be-
ing the original name known among
the early settlers for this stream, ana
that he always so pronounced 1t.
And. furthermore, | am credibly IN
formed that James O'Neill, an argo-
naut of 1884, who located on the up
per Rickreall in the autumn OF 1874
always so spoke of, the name OF this
stream, but when the rivalry came up
between "Rickreall" " and "La Gre
ole'' he favored the latter name be
cause it was more poetical than Kick
reall," to quote his words.
Mrs. ]. P. Boyle, a pioneer OF 1874,
a woman of brilliant intellect and
memory, in a letter to the Polk Coun-
tv Itemizer few years ago, says
"We have in our possession letters
written as early as 1915, all address
ed TO Rickreall." And in speaking
of certain early settlers she says
"These men were neither stupid nor
illiterate, and could have spelled, pro-
nounced and given the meaning OF La
Creole.' This last remark was made
in refutation of the charge that these
early settlers had CORRUPTED the
name La Creole"
1t certainly appears to me thal
both the verbal and documentary tes-
timony clearly establishes the tact
that Rickreall" being the first name
known among the early settlers tol
this stream. "La Creole" being an in
novation of much later date. No sat
isfactory evidence to the contrary
having been presented at all.
The peculiar slur or gloss the In
dian is said to give the letter "r'
did not escape the notice OF other ear,
lv settlers. I have mentioned that
Mark A. Ford, young pioneer law
yer of 1914, also detected peculiar
twist or gutteral sound the Indians
gave to the first syllable in "Rlcre
al" (this spelling). He said this was
the nearest approach to an Engllsf
equivalent that he could find for the
Indian name of this stream Inc
fact that Mr.. Ford was an accom-
plished French scholar precludes The
idea, in my opinion, that he was trlck
ed by a mongrel French name. But
as the Siwash dialect was new tt
him. he may have misspelled the first
svllable. am not in a position to bt
dogmatic as to that. Ii the lette,

AT The Hudson Motor Car
Plant Today
When Second Floor OF Ma
chine Shop Collapsed

Detroit, Mich, Jan. PA terrible
catastrophe occurred here shortly be-
fore noon today when the second
floor of the machine shop of the Hud-
son Motor Car Company collapsed
and fell to the floor below.
The stock and vanishing depart
ments were located Immediately un-
der the machine shop and all en-
ployes of the two departments were
buried in the debris.
Factory officials refused to estimate
the number Of men at work in the
departments where the collapse took
place.
All ambuIances in the city were
sent to the factory.
A large number of rescuers went to
work Immediately, but it took some
time before they had succeeded In re-
moving any bodies.
A large number of bodies have al
ready been removed, but It is impos-
sible at this time to give any reliable
information as to the number of dead.

SKULL CAP

The return of the skull cap is pre-

Medical men of Ohio have held the
deadly grip germ is lurking in the
air. And the latest advice in the safe
ty first" campaign is that given en-
tirely to men.
The man who tips his hat is in
danger, the medical men say, while
he who stands with unbared dome,
while in conversation with a woman
on the street, would be safer if he
were to fiaunt a British flag in Ger.
many
Other physicians claim however
the chivalrous man is in no danger on
removing his hat unless the woman
no so polite as he, sneezes in his
face.
In order however, that safety first
may be carried out to the full extent
the use of the skull cap is being ad
yised. With this little covering Sc
curely fastened over the hair the grir
germ would have little opportunity o.
securing a foothold, SO to speak.
Skull caps, once popular with some
are but little in evidence at present
They can however be worn under the
hat if the occasion demands.
