by tho whlto traders. Tho origin of
nuch Jargon words as bloom far

for littlo rope or cord, nro easily
traced. Other corruptions of Bngllsh
words nro glenso for fat, kal-a-hwa-tlo
for calico or petticoat, and also tho
words for sail, smoke, sick, wind and
shoes. In discussing tho formation
of tho Chinook Innguago un authority
on tho mibjoct says:
"For nearly a century the Chi
nook Jargon 1ms served to fostor
trndo, promoto pence and open tho
way lo civilization. Out of tho con
fusion of Indian languages nnd dia
lects of tho broad northwest It
brought Intolllgonco nnd moro friend

of tho MOs found It ready formed
nnd a unlvorsnl modlum of communi
cation. A quick mind, In nn hour,
could make progress In It, nnd It
could bo mnstorod In a fow weeks.

"Klahowya" to a strange Indian on a
