When cleaning the yard,
never burn leaves on a windy

covered metal container set
away from any building or
fence.
Keep a garden hose hooked
up for emergency use and have
the hose equipped with threaded
faucets.
For a two-story house, keep
a ladder in a handy place in
case it is needed for rescue.
Keep a back-pack pump or
garden spraying equipment
filled with water and in a place
where you can get to it quickly.
Post the number of the
nearest fire equipment near the

Dialectal Differences
In US Subject
By FRANK L. SPENCER
CHICAGO (UPI)-Maybe we
Americans are spending the
same kind of currency ind sa
luting the same flag, but how
about fossnocks?
Fossnocks are what some
Americans call nut cakes, oli
cooks or crullers. Perhaps you
know them as doughnuts.
Then there's the coverlid sit
uation. That's what some
Americans call bed spreads,
which others call coverlets or
counterpanes.
Let's go into the keeping
room and talk it over. Or do you
call it the sitting room, the par
lor, the front room or the living
room.'
The above examples of dis
agreement as to what to call
things are contained in a book
by Mrs. Jean Malstrom, an as
sociate professor of English at
Western Michigan university,
and Mrs. Annabel Ashley, asso
ciated with the Portland, Ore.,
school system.
The book, published by the
National Council of Teachers of
English, sets forth that decades
after the passing of the old
frontier Americans still talk in
different dialects. We still pro
nounce words in a variety of
ways, use an assortment of
grammar and don't even agree
on what to call a creek.
Binneklll
Some Americans call a creek
a brook. To others it is a binne
kill, a run, a prong, a kill, a
riverlet or a binacle.
Some American kids play on
a seesaw. Others call the thing
a teetering board, a dandle, a
ridy-horse or a teeter-totter.
We eat johnny cake, hush
puppies, spoon bread, hoe cake
or corn cakes and according to
the authors it's all the same,
as is Dutch cheese, smear case,
pot cheese and cottage cheese.
Americans who eat too much
get sick, to, at, in, on or of their
their stomachs. American chil
dren are liable to get a whip
ping, licking, smacking, skein
ing, skinning, blistering, thrash
ing, tanning or even a beating
if they play hookey or truant
or skip, bolt, hook, bag or skip
school.
In their book, "Dialects USA,"
the authors say these differ
ences "are created by the move
ments of people from one region
of the country to another; the
westward movement carried
speech forms from Pennsylva
nia west to Ohio and from New
York to Michigan."
Midland Words
"Migrations north up the Mis
sissippi river to southeastern
Minnesota spread Midland
words, the authors say. "A
small area in southeas' rn Ne
braska has certain northern
speech forms apparently
brought there after the Civil
War by a number of New York
and Ohio families who migrated
west into the east Platte River
valley."
OSU To Mark

Anniversary
OREGON STATE UNIVER

versity School of Home Eco
nomics first of its kind west
of the Rockies and the fourth
to be established in the United
States, will observe its 75th an
niversary this year with a
series of conferences on "Chal
lenges to American Families"
in the future.
Nearly 5,000 degrees have
been awarded since the depart

Courses then included sew
ing, dressmaking and millinery,
cooking, house furnishings and
kitchen gardening, floriculture,
sanitary science, care of the
sick, hygiene, and social eti
quette. The present name. School of
Home Economics, became offi
cial in 1912.
Program Listed
The conferences, scheduled in
observance of 75 years of teach
ing and research, will include:
Advances in Nutrition, No
vember 15 and 16. Main speak
er will be Dr. Hazel K. Stiebcl-

MAIL TRIBUNE, MEUKORD,
of Book
Americans are still on the
move and they bring their
words with them. Nowadays
there's no telling where you
might hear somebody order up
a stack of fritters, flannel cakes,
pancakes, flitters, hot cakes or
flap jacks. -
We may be influenced by the
television and radio announcers
but we've also picked up some
word habits from our relatives,
kinfolks, home folks, relations
and kinnery.
It's a blame shame that all
Americans don't talk good Mis-sourian.
