Q Recently While in Louisiana I came across a word which sounded like "lan-yap- " and apparently had the meaning of "something extra" Can you iden tify it? A The word is the Creole French P lagniappe pronounced: It is a corruption of the Spanish word napa 'something over or lan-YA- extra Originally lagniappe was a small gift such as a piece or two of candy given by merchants to the children of customers when the latter bought a bill of goods or settled their accounts' The word" now has "the additional extended meaning of "anything given in ex cess of the proper and expected amount In San Antonio and elsewhere in the southwest where Mexicans have settled the Spanish word pilon has about the same meaning as lagniappe Literally It means "sugar loaf hence a piece of candy or some other trifle given as something extra Pilon is accented on the second syllabi e which rhymes with "bone tone" thus: Add intramuros to our growing list of tragic and historic names of the Pacific war News agencies have frequently explained that Intramuros means "walled city" But that is not the literal meaning The name is formed from intra- "within" plus muros "walls" The name of course designates the old part of Manila surrounded by thick walls which were erected by the bpanish Important The "u" of Intra muros should not have the "yoo" sound as in English In Spanish as in most other foreign languages u has the "oo sound as in mood moon" Be sure to say: the last sylla(Copyright by The Hopkins Syndi-- I cate Inc) ble rhyming with "dose" It is thought that the name Manila evolved from the Tagalog word manilad "place of many Near Completion nilads" a shrub with white blosSALT LAKE CITY April 18 soms (AP)—The $86000 health center at For a free and comprehensive the University of Utah will be pamphlet explaining basic English ready for occupancy about the mid- the proposed world language send dle of May Dr H L Marshall the a stamped en(3c) center's director said today Hunt3221 to Frank velope Colby ingdon Place Houston Texas (Released by the Bell Syndicate N A pee-LON- E "Around-the-Clock- I the-Cloc- k" - self-address- i II? ) W t - iw ' r' ' 'S- in - W Dr C R Chiropractor— Naturopath 22-2- 6 Lewis Bldg ' ' -'- K " S ' : A Phone 6301 Colon Irriqations Spinal Distortions Corrected U HARPER'S aA TA A D m ed Inc) Jones Cabinet Baths — Massage I lil - Prostatic Treatments bfours— 9:30 A M to 6 P M Call for Appointment Graduate Lady Operator In Attendance m extremely unjust B R so-call- ed 1 A big crowd filled the aisles at the W IT Wriohf store Thursday in ceelbration of 4Vt a r Jtt ot luueui "c anniversary firm's founding Members of the the firm are Gus Wright Luke Wright Arthur Wright and Frank Wright The Prince of Wales is traveling in South Africa At Cano he reviews 20000 native troops commanded by English officers rs do-mes- tic i Twenty Years Ago The Boston police raid the newsdragging stands and seize all copies of the Harvard university publication over the coals "Lampoon" because a picture ridithese busybodies cules Won't you tell women George Washington older mostly are who whose husbands are safe and Tom Sims savs: "Hast mot sound in their henpecked little waste In Chicago a man running we war what nests just home and that are through ijuuteman ieu ana Droke going wives we crave and need a little conver-satio- n his leg" once in a while with a male The American fleet of about 70 listener?
