ARE NOT AGREED ON
ORIGIN OF HOOSiER
Some Opinions Put ForWard
Not Complimentary.

What the term "Hoosier' means,
and the origin of it, is a question that
persists through the years. More than
ninety years ago 1t was discussed in
the newspapers, and though the rea-
sonable and probable answer was
then indicated, which the Indiana
Democrat of October 20, 1888, copied
from the Cincinnati Republican, an i'm
probable explanation that CHANGED to
get footing is nearly always given
In answer. 1t Is that the nickname
rose from what was said to be the
habit of Indiana pioneers of hailing
a cabin with the call Who's yereT
No authentic pioneer chronicles tell
of any such expression.
common hail was: Hello the
housed" in Indiana and elsewhere.
More worthy of cfetence is the notion
of James Whitcomb Riley, who main
tanned that Hooser evolved from the
Characteristic scrappiness of the plo-
neers who In settling their differences
bit off each others features. When,
after one of these pleasantriesi be
lated citizen arrived on the scene and
saw detached ear lying on the ground
he naturally asked: who's carp
Other stories than these derived the
word from huzzar huzza and husher.
None of them merits serious consider
alton Another story not quite so I'M
likely Is that when the canal was be-
ing dug a contractor by the name of
HoOsier employed workmen from the
Indiana side of the river. These be-
came known as HOLSTERS men. and
as there were a great many of them,
the use of the name spread until II
became associated with Indianians
generally.
The discussion of 1888, referred to
above as quoted from the Cincinnati
Republican, had this to say: THE
word Hoosier Is indebted for its ex-
istence to that once numerous but
now extinct class of mortals called
the Ohio boatmen. In its original ac-
ceptation 1t was equivalent TO rip
staver 'Scrouger 'Screamer, Bull
GER Ringtail roper,' and hundred
others. by some caprice the
appellation became confined solely TO
such boatmen as had their homes
upon the Indiana shore, and from them
1t was gradually applied to all the In.
dlanians."
The writer of this perhaps did not
know that the word was not confined
to the boatmen on the river, but ex
tended southwark and was probably
common then, as 1t certainly was
later In the more primitive sections,
especially In the mountain districts.
Today one may find the word Hoosier
there as an expression of contempt
for an uncouth and unkempt person.
That 1t made its way northward as
part of the southern vocabulary along
with the tide of immigration from the
South hardly admits of doubt, and
that II attached to the typical early
Indlanian is an uncomplimentary
probability. As the cultural status
of the people changed the word gradu-
ally lost Its earlier implications but
retained Its place. The first appear
ance of the word in print, as far as
known, Is In the Indiana Palladium
for July 80 1881, which, describing
Noah Noble as horse in the political
race. says; "He may he called a

OLGA

nLGA Is one of the most interesting
~ Of feminine names. Her Russian
ancestry, as well as her famous bear
ers and the sanctity which surrounds
her, makes her worthy of more atten-
ton than she generally receives. The
name comes originally from the
Morse, and means holy but 1t first
sprang to fame In Russia.
Olga was the name of the first
Christian duchess in Russia. She was
the godmother of Vladimir, the first
grand duke to be baptized In the
Christian church In 988 Olga ap-
pears In the Monument of Faith" a
sort Of devotional prayer book, as one
of the saints of the Russian calendar.
When the royal widow, Olga, came
from Muscovy to seek instruction and
baptism, she was called Helena, In
honor of Empress Helena, mother Of
the founder of Constantinople. Olga
Is therefore sometimes believed to he
a translation OF Helena, but etymol-
ogists contend that this is mistake
founded on the fact that the royal
widow and another royal saint were
called by both names. Olga, accord
ing to an authoritative source, Is the
feminine of Oleg, the Russian form
of Helgl. which the race of Rurik de-
rived from their Morse ancestor.
Among the modern bearers Of the
name are Included Grand Duchess
Olga of Russia, sister of the late
car. His Inflated daughter. the
young grand duchess, was likewise
called Olga.
Olga's talismanlc stone Is the da-
mond. II promises her victory in
every endeavor, fearlessness and In
vulnerability. 1t is said to have the
power to enhance the love of hus-
band for his wife. Saturday Is Olga's
