COOLIDGE SPEAKS AT CELEBRATION President Gives Address At Anniversary Celebration Os Phillips Academy Andover, Mass., May 19.—(U.R) — Warning American institutions of learning not to jeopardize life's spiritual values in favor of materialistic doctrines. President Coolidge at Phillips Academy today asserted tlie self imposed standards of the student body are the standards which gauge the Aythics of the world. The President made the principal address at the 150th anniversary exercises of the school, one of the oldest secondary schools in the Unjited States. "Whatever may be the standards of the classromF” the President said. “Practical life will require something more than 66 percent or 70 percent for a passing mark. The standards of the world are not like those set by the faculty, but more closely resemble those set by the student body themselves. "The standards which the student body set are high. They want accuracy that is well-nigh complete. They aipply the same standards to candor and honesty.” o Personal? mil AIMI IIIMII IIIIW 111 Word has been received in this city that the Rev. R. W.

r Decatur, Ind. May 19, 1928 DEAR FRIENDS: Yesterday I applied for a job here at the Decatur Laundry. Mr. Farr asked me if I knew anything about the dry cleaning business. I told him I had often heard of it. Then he asked me if I could write ads! I said I didn’t know I’d never tried. He didn't ask me if I could run a locomotive or play the piano. If he had, I'd have told him the same thing. I never wrote an ad in my life but I got the job! And now I suppose it's up to me to deliver or starve. This is my opener. I won't try to talk, shop this time because I can't. Next time maybe I can tell you something a little more interesting. Pull for me! I'm going to need your help.
