KENOSITAN ANSWERS
AUSTRALIANS QUER Y
Elmer Eiworth Bailey Of Kenosha TELLS
Troubled Zionist What the Word
Done Means

An Australian, who hes left his ma
tive land and is now a resident of Zion
City, was greatly perplexed about the
meaning Of the Americanism dope. y
There is probably no other word in the
American slanguage that has puzzled
him more and to secure a solution he
sent out an rs. o. So to his friends
in Zion and Kenosha.
One Of his answers came from Elmer
Elworth Bailey, Kenoshan. He
ranks it as one of the most suggestive
in the entire list. The Kenoshan s
definition is as follows: Dope is o
gamblers tip to the sheep when the
wolves are getting ready TO fleece
Here are some of the answers he got
in his home town:
"Dope is something that's neither
one thing nor the other-it's doped
up. ''-E. A. Mehafey.
When painter is going to paint a
house and he puts everything into one
pot, like an Irish stew--that's dope. Z
III. A. Gruman.
Dope pertains to man that's half
baked-he : dopey. William Valley.
"When you knock a home-run with
three on-that's dope ''-Austin Me-
Kerlie.
Hits the high spot. "a. F. Wilson.
cit means everything TO nothing.
The English language would ID to go
on crutches if we lost the word dope. =

dope. ''--Justice ]. 7. Bishop.
