TELEPHONE IS FROM GREEK WORD; ME The telebolos or shouting orator of the Greeks, whose range was limâ€" ited only by the power of his voice, has been succeeded by the telephone which brings near the voice of the party far away. The teleskopos for the farâ€"seeing observer of the Greeks has been replaced by the telescope, which brings far off objects near at hand. Then there was also the teleâ€" machos or farâ€"casting bow, the teleâ€" pompes, or the man who had visited far lands, the teJekleitos or fa?â€"famâ€" ed hero and the telegonos or farâ€"born foreigner. Te%"rele" Originally Mehat tant," but Now Seems To Indicate "Near" The word "tele" comes from the Greek. Originally it meant "far" or "distant," but in the modern meanâ€" ing of the word it has come to mean "near." &# ‘The telephone, the telegraph and the telescope, however, have entirely altered the meaning of the original Greek word "tele." Last of all comes television which, allied with the teleâ€" phone, completely annihilates disâ€" tances so that both the object and the voice are brought near at hand, even though they are hundreds or thouâ€" sands of miles away. 810 Davia Street 2. &imt MEANING Evanston Sel Select your The Chicago=Motor club has warnâ€" ed its memWers to observe cargfully the rightâ€"ofâ€"way rule. § eause of a large proportion of the @ollisions which occur at street inâ€" tersections. "The object of the rightâ€"ofâ€"way rule is to avoid collisions at street. intersections.

"There should be no splitting of hairs with this rule, as a slight uncertainty may result disastrously. It is the duty of the opérator on the left to yield o the operator on the right, when ‘the two are approaching the interâ€" section at about the same time. This means at such time that if both proâ€" ceed, a collision will occur. Christmas happiness lasts when you give for the home.
