CALVIN COOLIDGE He Enjoys Walking and Watching Baseball Games, but Plays Little Himself —Believes People of Country Need Recreation, THE BIOGRAPHY OF A PRESIDENT

Cal via Coolidge, thirteenth President of the United States was born on July 4. 1872, in Plymouth. Vt. Coolidge attended Amherst and graduated with honors. He mimed, in 100,">. Grace Goodhue, a teacher. After passing the bar examination he entered politics and has held many offices While Governor he helped eettle the Boston police strike . He became Vice President in 1910 and Presi dent in 1923. on the death of President Hardin*. CHAPTER X A r ~~ m ~ READING of this biography might give the mistaken irnw ... i pression that Coolidge never gave a thought to play. There never was a time in his life when play counted as much as work with him. But there is a lighter side of his nature. He has always realized, nay, even been taught to believe that a certain amount of recreation is absolutely necessary if one’s work is to be done weVAsa boy he didn’t shine at baseball or football. He was too busy on the farm, or hiking long distances to school. In that way he obtained Hoosier Briefs mCSTTCE of Peace John Schuman of Clinton ruled it was slander when Frank Hiadni called Mike Halco a horse thief detective and fined him $1 and eosts. *'Smjle, smile all the while,” is the pleading of the Marion Chamber of Commerce to citizens during the TV. C. T. U. convention. Ralph Ashley. Portland baker, ' went to the oven to put in a pie. The dcor had been charged through a short circuit and he was severelyshocked. The old oaken bucket doesrv’t hang in the well any more at Frank Beyendecker's home at Muncle. police say. They' found a copper still hung in the well instead. EHERE wasn't light enough to suit Postmistress Beaver at Advance, so she got busy and moved the postoffice to a neat little room vacated by Las : ley’s jewelry store. Anew kind of sish —a tree bass—has been discovered by' Ed Haytnond of Muncie, he was casting and his line caught in a. tree. The bass jumped into the tree and took the j bait off the line. Double funeral services were held I near Geneva for Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Le Fovour, both 75. George Ames of Portland wrecked ; his coupe on a highway near here. .de was going after help, thieves took the tires, a motometer and a apotlight. fTyiVRL.

While playing with a fr.nd he broke it. Washington is proud of Ray A Graham.

an abundance of outdoor life, and in a sense, recreation. Attends Baseball Games He enjoys watching others play strenuously, however. He often attends baseball games. long ago he attended a game *T>o tween the White House reporters against the White House photographers. He sat on a park bench with his wife and Secretary Slemp, and enjoyed the game thoroughly. He laughed and applauded. Walking is his chief recreation. It ! always has been. | But if one is to get an accurate ; picture of what the President thinks |of recreation, it is necessary to I quote from him direct. He has aired j his views from time to time and'the I following about sums them up: "Modern living,” he has said, “with little need of physical effort in business and industry, makes it ! necessary that the nation should stimulate every possible interest in out-of-door, health-giving recreation. Along with the learning of a trade by which a livelihood is to be earned. | should go the learning of how to participate in the activities of recreation, by which life may he not only' more enjoyable, but more rounded and complete. "The country needs instruction that we may' better secure these result. I am hopeful that our national resources and opportunities can be co-ordinated in a way better to serve this purpose. Wants Incisure "I want to see all Americans have a reasonable amount of leisure. "Then I want to see them educated to use such leisure for their own enjoyment and betterment and the strengthening of the quality of their citizenship. "We can go along way In that direction by getting them out of doors and really interested in nature. We can still make further progress by engaging them in games and sport. Our country is a land of cultured men and women. It is a land of agriculture, of industries, .if schools and of places of religiot s worship. It is a land of varied climes and scenery, of mountains and plajn, of lake and river. It ts the A<nerican heritage. "We must make it a land of visim, a land of work, of sincere striving for -the good, hut w-e must add 'o all these in order to round out the full stature of the people, an ample effort to make it a land of wholesome enjoyment and perennial gladness.” It is as if h urges others to do what he missed. When President Coolidge came to Washington as Vice President he was seen often walking through th“ streets. He had an automobile, of course, but he really preferred to walk. And when he became President, this longing to "hit the road" didn’t lessen. Needs Little Himself Obviously his is not a body that needs much recreation. This he hn always felt and always given it the proper amount to keep it keyed to its fullest efficiency. But strenuous athletics—no! He never has participated throughout his entire life. He will go into a gymnasium at times and swing In dinn clubs, or lift weights—hut rhere he stops. He wants to soe others do the rest, hut for himself, he knows his body doesn’t need them.

HOW AMSTERDAM IS KEPI AFLOAT Entire City Built on p iles of Logs, No American tourist tins ever traveled down the Rhine withnu* noticing the huge rafts of timber that drift down the river. Every writer who has described such a trip mentions the rafts, but without ex plaining where they were going or what the wood was to be used for. The rafts were evidently bound for Holland, but tourists have often wondered whether the Dutch could possibly build new houses out of all the lumber floating daily into tha country. A German journalist has at last explained where the logs go. Most of them are driven into the mud of Holland. Nearly all the buildings of Amsterdam, as well as of many smaller Dutch cities, are supported on piles. Over 13.000 pine piles keep the royal palace at Amsterdam from disappearing into the ooze. The old piles are constantly rotting and have to be replaced. The huge rafts that float down the Rhine keep Amsterdam from a muddy grave. Gas Tax Growing More than $50,000,000 is collected annually as gasoline taxes in the thirty-live States that require this revenue. The average tax is two cents, twelve States getting one cent a eallon and one, Arkansas, levying

('Connor led those who held the four courts in Dublin against tit - free state besiegers, hut the friendship continued. Finally O'Connor, was raptured. He was sentenced to death. The warrant for his execution came to the desk of the best friend he had in the world. All manner of pressure was brought to hear on O'Higgins, hut he replied: "He must die lor,torrow,” and closed his lips tight as he signed. ~ O’Higgins remained seated at that same desk all night alone. At 5’ in (lie morning mesengers brought him word his friend was dead. The home minister collapsed. Colonial Minister Thomas has just told the sequel to this story.

TORONTO, Ont., Oct. 10.—Two questions only will be on the ballots used by voters on October 23. the date set to decide, the future of the Ontario temperance act, which has been in effect in the province since 1916. Premier Ferguson has announced the questions would be: "Are you in favor of the continuance rtf the Ontario Temperance Act?" "Are you in favor of the sale as a beverage of beer and spirituous liquor in sealed packages under Government control?” If the second question is answered favorably, Ontario will go under the same kind of a law that prevails in Quebec, her neighboring province to the East. Each Canadian province has home rule on the liquor problem somewhat similar to the old local option and State prohibition laws in the United States before national prohibition. The present Ontario temperance law permits the sale of beer (called ale here) with an alcoholic content of not to exceed 2*£ pe cent by volume. - Asa general proposition the industrial centers of Ontario are expected to vote r<?etnst the existing law by •

true of Peterboro, Toronto, Hamilton and Windsor. The rural vote is largely a “dry’’ vote, but there has been little interference with the cider and home wine in the agricultural districts. The campaign has been bitterly fought, with mass meetings, s’reet parades and a close organization of "wets" under an association similar to the anti-dry organization in the United States. Generally speaking tile wet movement is lead by old conservative party leaders. India is practically a soapiess country.
