HOW DO YOU SAY 1T?
By c. N. Lurie
Common Errors. in English and
How to Avoid Them
THE USE OF "GoT."

TINE word get" and its deriva-
4 tives, "got" and gotten" have
their proper place in the English Ian
guage, but they are frequently over
worked and misused. Get" means
ito acquire, to gain, to obtain, to pro-
cure" and it does not mean TO have
or to become. To say HE got for
tune" meaning that he acquired one,
is correct usage, but it is not correct
to say Hes got fortune" when one
means HE has a fortune" Say II
have a cold" but do not say 81 have
got cold" or 1--WE got a cold"
Some authorities permit the use Of
"have got" meaning "have," but they
call such use colloquial, meaning that
it is common but is not recognized as
standard. 1t is, however sometimes
defended on the ground that long
usage has made 1t part of our com
mon speech.
81 did not get to go there" and sim
liar expressions, are heard some
times, but they are examples of an
other faulty use of the word get
Say, 81 could not go there" or u had
no opportunity to go there"

Swelled Head.

I'm delighted to see wages go
Ing up and up. It's a splendid thing
as long as swollen pOcketbooks don't
make swollen heads"
The speaker was Lady Duff Gordon.
She went on:
81 heard a story the other day
about a man who brought couple of
friends home from the club and sent
down word to the cook that he'd like
few cheese sandwiches.
"The maid who carried the mes
sage returned in a few minutes and
said:
1.-THE cook wishes me to tell you,
sir, that she can't be disturbed, as
she is giving a small after-theater sup
per party and is very busy cutting up
the Holsters and opening the wine.'"

LastNight's Streams
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM ABOUT SHEEP

MOST dreams of rural life and
INl country scenes appear to be re-
garded by the authorities of Dream
land as favorable omens. To dream
of seeing a flock of sheep, for instance,
is a very good indication for the fu-
ture. To be surrounded by them in
creases the good luck and a flock of
lambs foretells even more good luck
than a flock Of sheep. But just to
gaze upon a flock of sheep feeding In
the pastures of your dreams means
that you will have success in life.
If you are unmarried and dream
that you are watching the little lamb
kins skip about, your sweetheart is
faithful and of good disposition.
Also, If you are a man, the lady of
your choice is inclined to say YES"
If you will but pop the question. If
you are married and see sheep or
lambs in the visions of your slumbers
you will have children who will ac
Quire riches and be a great comfort
TO you. If you pick up a lamb and
carry it in your dreams you will be a
lucky person indeed.
If sailor dreams of sheep it means
great luck and q safe and prosperous
voyage to him. If you see yourself
shearing sheep it is an indication that
you will shortly make money by
business enterprise, though, accord
ing to some of the wiseacres, it means
that you will have to struggle hard
for this success. But it isn't good to
see the sheep running away from you,
for that indicates that some of your
pretended friends are really trying TO
injure you. 1t is warning to be on
your guard. Also it Is bad sign t.
hear the lambs baa or to see them
killed. II you see your flock of dream
sheep lean and scraggy look out for
your investments carefully If you
would profit by them.
With the few exceptions noted the
lambs and muttonS Of Dreamland are
much to be desired and come far
cheaper than in the markets of the
world of actualities, the food profteer
not as yet having obtained a foothold
in the realm Of shadows.

The P. H. s. basketball team
~Sanother game from the Inter
u lain Institute here last Friday
Is big making their sixth straight
n ~ This is the second game won
\ fayette over the Institute which
been considered to have the
strongest team in the league. At
the end of the first half the score
stood IL to against Payette, but
during the second half the squad
came back with its old fight and
easily won by the score of 80 to IS.
The second teams of the two
schools played preliminary game
resulting in victory for the Insti-
tute by the close score of II to 8.
Saturday evening the quintet met
its first defeat in the hands of the
Caldwell H. S. hoopsters by the
score of 26 to 49, The visitors show
ed exceptional team work and play
ed clean game. Another game is
yet to be played with this schoo,
whereby Payette may make up for
this defeat. Owing to the fact that
the Caldwell five has a wonderful.
record and is not in this section or
the league, Payette yet has a good
chance for the championship.
The P. H. S. girls basketball team
was also defeated Saturday evening
by the College of Idaho girls. The
final score was 81 to 8 however the
members of the team did exceptional

WHAT l WILL BE

l can remember a long time ago
When I was three or four,
Of thinking many a, many time
OF what I would be in the future
sometime.
At first I remember 1 wanted to be
! A sailor on the Sea,
And live a happy carefree life
Far from this worldly strife.
Then as most boys do,
I wanted to own ranch or two,
And be perfectly satisfied
With three or four good ponies to
ride.
And then I changed my mind
For something more refined.
wanted to be in two or three big
lands,
And play instruments with both
my mouth and hands.
And then 1 wanted to be a cowboy
fine
And with my bullets pierce
IN awful william or so
In some Movie Studio.
And SO I dreamed in those hours of
play
OF what I would be in some flu
ture day.
And at last l have decided and for
good to be,
a man who works with electricity
For a thing I have read leads
Me to believe our future needs,
II not all will partly be
Solved mostly by electricity.

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"cIGAR."

A MUM ER of prominent
IA etymologists, among them
Littre, have endeavored to prove
the word "cigar" is derived from
the Spanish cigarra, meaning
grasshopper, and that it was
applied to the rolled leaves of
tobacco by reason of their SINH
larity in shape to the body of
this insect. This explanation,
while ingenious, hardly fits the
facts In the case, for when to-
bacco was first introduced into
Spain from Cuba, it was grown
In gardens or cigarrales, as the
Spanish call them.
The Weather Spaniards had
a fad of raising tobacco in their
cigarrales and making their own
cigars, which they would proffer
with the explanation "Es de mi
cigarral" ("It is from my gar
den" as proof that the tobacco
was wholesome and home
grown). Before long the express
sion changed to este cigarro es
di mi cigarral," which might be
literally translated, '"This gar
den product from my garden"
and it was from this that the
word edgar" originated.
However, in the final analysis,
the grasshopper does have
something to do with it-for the
Spanish "cigarral" or garden"
is so-called because it is the
place where the grasshopper
("cigarra") resides.
