OP In the days of my maternal grandmother Ruby, people used to shout "hello the house" when coming up to a rural house; but Ruby wouldn't let people through the gate unless they shouted "halo the house." Mom said she couldn't tell what difference Ruby was hearing in the "hello" and "halo." - Has anyone else heard of "halo the house," or do you think Ruby was making judgments by appearance, body language, etc.?
