Colonel" is a Column Leader.

The Spanish for colonel is coronel,
the Italian colonello. The Spanlards
originated the word 400 years ago
and seem to have made 1t by combin-
ing the sense of the Latin columna, a
column, with that of corona, a crown.
We follow the French spelling, but
In pronouncing we retain the Spanish
or" hence 'kernel," as we say 1t. Lit
orally ID means the leader of a column
or of the company at the head OF the
regiment In column.

stand and frantically wave the big
claw, being particularly angry If a lady

from the rear was not paying any at

quently smashed into the ear ahead,
taking the rear wheel off entirely and
smashing the fender. Just by the
merest chance no one was hurt, due to
the fact that the Idaho car was well
tiled with tent. suit cases and the
usual tourists supplies.
Mrs. Rand says the reckless driving
that she witnesses every day, and auto
mobiles going by at night without
lights, machines coming around sharp
curves without ever sounding their
horn. It is a wonder that there are not
a dozen wrecks every day. There are
a number of bad curves on the High
way in that vicinity. and unless auto
lists heed at least few of the rules
and regulations of traffic there will be
more serious things happen.
Judging from the way some drivers
speed along the roads, one is led to
think there are absolutely no speed
limits in this part of the country. 1t
does seem that if these reckless drivers
do not consider safety first of any value
to their own lives. they should in some
way or other be brought to realize the
danger to which they are constantly
Subjecting others.
