The name for this hamlet, previously known as "Zetland," was changed in 1927. It is a combination of the first two letters of the names of the four daughters of A.E. Warren, general manager, Central Region, Canadian National Railways. The names of the four girls were Helen, Margaret, Ruth and Kathleen. Mr. Warren had been a senior executive of both the Canadian Northern Railway and the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway and, after the Canadian National Railways absorbed both, held various posts with the C.N.R.
