strife, but who travelled in reverse
as soon as fisticuffS began to fly.
Joe took exception to quoted
statements by Dizzy to the effect
that MedWick and not Dean de.

news writer's in Tampa, Fla. Med.
wick wrote, in part:
THE only truth to his state
ment is that he wasn't in the
fight after the fists began to
swing. That's Dizzy all over.
We have protected him in many
a row, and he always backs
away when things get hot.
Dizzy never could take it."
Dizzy wouldn't believe Medwick
would use that kind of language
about a teammate now wearing a
Cubs uniform until he called him
at Pittsburgh, where the Cards
were stabbed last night.
Joe said he was on the spot
and had to do it," Dizzy said.
HE said Sam Breadon (presi-
dent of the Cardinals baseball
club called him and told him
to.
II think they are just trying
to work up big day for our
game there Sunday"

over the mile and one-eighth

excuse for the latter this time.
He was on top for a good part

The derivation of the name Cam
ada accepted by our leading histo-
rians who have investigated the rec
ords makes it an Iroquois word, still
surviving among them in the form
Kanata, meaning a collection of
dwellings or settlement. Cartier,
in one of his vocabularies of the
Iroquois speech, says of it: "They
call town (ville) Canada" reports
a Canadian Resources bulletin.
Its evolution into a place name,
Canada, can Be fully followed in the
narratives of Cartier, wherein it APP
pears first in his account of his sec
ond voyage in 1885, observes a writ
err in the New York Times. The
two Iroquois Indians whom he had
seized at Gaspe and taken to France
the preceding year informed him on
entering the Great River (now the
st. Lawrence) that their home was
in Canada, which proved later to be
an alternative name for the village
of Stadacona, on the site of Quebec
city. Cartier himself seems to have
extended the word to the surround
ing region as convenient terrific
rial name-much as the name Que
bee has been extended from the
city to the province.
Accordingly this Interpretation of
Canada is well attested by unim-
peachable documents; but the same
is not true of several other current
explanations, which are nothing 9TH
er than guesses based on chance
resemblances between Canada and
certain other Indian or imaginary
roots, e. g., from segnada Canada
meaning linen seeking land Tor a
country; Montagnais root mean
ing foreign" mouth of the coun-
try" descriptive of the St. Law
renee; a Spanish AGA NADIA, mean
ing nothing here" ii. e., in gold) ;
Spanish cana, "a reed" extended
to an equivalent of beaupre.

Dandelions May Be Kept Down.

the old plants will appear undis-

Hand digging is the surest method
of elimination. With a dandelion
spud or sharp trowel, uproot the
long, strong roots. The plant may
be cut below the crown and sui.

Several sprays are advocated that
will kill the roots. The dead plants
may then be raked from the sod,
