The No-Ni-Shee Arch was a temporary archway near the intersection of Main Street and South Temple in downtown Salt Lake City. The archway was built in 1916 for the Wizard of the Wasatch festival. The name No-Ni-Shee was derived from a mythical American Indian Salt Princess. Her tears caused the Great Salt Lake to be salty. The arch was dedicated to her and sprayed with salt water so that salt eventually crystallized on Main Street. The Wizard’s carnivals enlivened Utah’s summers for several years. The last Wizard of the Wasatch carnival was held in 1916, on the eve of World War I.
The Neutrality Acts were passed in response to the growing conflicts in Europe and Asia during the time leading up to World War II. The primary purpose was so the US wouldn't engage in any more foreign conflicts. Most of the Acts were repealed in 1941 when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
1 English: locative name perhaps a variant of Caldwell via Cardwell (1). Some of the Staffs and Warwicks examples may derive from (2).
2 English: alternatively Cardall in Staffs, Warwicks, and Gloucs may be a variant of the now extinct Kyrdall ( -ell, -oll) and Kerdall ( -oll), later spelled Curdle. Compare the spelling variation in the Gloucs examples, and compare Thomas Cardall, 1746, with William Curdall, 1808 in IGI (Bilston, Staffs), and John Cardall, 1815, with William Curdle, 1847 in IGI (Saint Philip's, Birmingham). The etymology of this name is unknown, but the variation in spelling points to an original Middle English word or name beginning in Kird- or Kerd-, the latter giving rise to Card- (as in Clerk and Clark). Formally it could be a variant of the Somerset name Criddle , with metathesis of -r-, but there is insufficient evidence to test the hypothesis.
3 English: (i) locative name in Devon and Cornwall, perhaps from Cardwell in Milton Abbot (Devon). With loss of -w-, Middle English Kerdewell would have developed to Kerdell and Cardell, the former pronunciation giving rise to a pronunciation rhyming with the word curdle, probably during the 17th century. (ii) the name is nevertheless difficult to disentangle from possible variants of other names, such as those in (1) and (2) above, which may have migrated to SW England from the W Midlands or further north. There is also potential for confusion between names that sound only partly alike. According to the IGI , in 18th- and 19th-century Stoke Damerel, Devon, Cardell co-existed with Cadwell , Colwell , and Caudle , and in 18th-century Camborne, Cornwall, it coincided with Cadwell and Cordwell .
