WHYP
why Is whiskey Called @Hootch Y
ropywrighf, 1920 By
Wheeler synbic . te. In-.

Those who are familiar with the
poems of Robert w. Service and the
novels of writer's who. like Jack Lon
don and James Oliver Cufwood,
specialize upon tales OF the frozen
north. probably recall meeting the
slang word 'shooteh" long before it made
it's rather belated entrance into the
colloauial language of the other sec
tions of the United States. for Il was
in Alaska that the term had its origin.
Here the Indians were distinctly
addicted to the spirituous liquor which
they brewed at home and which went
by the name OF .hoocheno. or skootz-
manoo.s the name OF tribe
where the mixture was supposed
to have originated. White men
shortened the word to "hootch" and L
was in this form that Il became a
synonym for whiskey In the argot OF
the mining camps. In more recent
years, since the Eighteenth Amend
ment has brought alcoholic liquors
into comparative prominence in every
day conversation, "hootch' has become
a term applied to spirituous drinks IN
general and TO those which are made
at home in particular. thus retaining
its aboriginal meaning.

a couple of months and you're feeling
about as blue as you can get, because

Because every time you hear of an
opening. you find that a crowd Of
other people have been there ahead of
you, and you begin to think that some-
one has put the jinx sign on YOU for

And all you hear is hard times
and business depression" and just as
you're beginning to wonder if things
will ever turn out right--you decide
to try a Situation Wanted ad in Every

And you write an ad telling just
what you can do and what experience
you've had and snap your fingers for
luck when you hand it in TO the ad

And within three days you have

who are interested in your services
and you so around to the offices of the
