As a senior at Amherst he won the $150 gold medal in fea cai with students of All Américan colleges for the best essay; on ah historical subject, which‘ fie‘his | case was “The Principles of the American Revolution.”~ Burke » and] other political ‘leaders of intellectual) distinction have always been his fav- orites and he has’ studied carefully their writings. Jt was this intensive study of af- fairs of state’ that first attracted to him the attention of prominent, tte publican leaders, notably the ‘late Senator W. Murray Crane’of Massa: ! dhusetts. For a number of years! these watched the development of his! career with a view to directing him into the national political arena Their Opportunity came when the spectacu- lur Boston police strike, during his first term as governor, wttracted na- tion-wide attention. (isis Precepitated The crisis which was precipitated by the strike, according to these friends, merely revealed’ the powers and courage of the man, and they frankly and openly seized the oppor- tunity to press’for him claims for the Republican presidential nomination at Chicago last June. They pointed out that as a councilor in, his home city and later as city solicitor and mayor, as a member of both Sra thes of the legislature including; a Merhrsas presi- dent of the senate and then as liew- tenant governor and finally as govere or he had been elected with ever in- creasing majorities culminating ia the vote of confidence after the polic? strike when he was again elected gov- ernor by a plurality of. 126,009. Probably the most attractive part of Mr. Coolidge is his home life. Ever since his marriage 15 years ago, to; Miss Grace Goodhue, of Burlington, Vt., a University of Vermont graduate whom he met as a school teacher in| ‘Northampton, he. has lived a quiet, | modest life, most of the time in the shadow of Smith College in a house | which he has rented for $32.50 a month, “Saye, no matter what your Salary may he,” has always been his motto and, as he has enjoyed the income earned in public office only meagre returns from his law practice because | of pressure of public duties, he has) been obliged and content to live sim-| ply. There are two boys in their | early ’téens, but all do their bit, even to mowing the lawn. During Mr. Coolidge’s official resi-| ‘dence at Boston he and Mrs, Coolidge! lived in apartments at a hotel, as they | will do here in Washington, while the | boys have been away at school. In} dress, too, Mr. Coolidge has been not | extravagant, although always immacu- | lately attired and not given to use of! the threadbare, whatever the popular | impression to the contary may he. | His coming to Washington means! the presence of a man, who, his friends say, personifies the best of| American standards, not given much) to social life, perhaps, but a thorough | student, a hard worker and,a clear-| | headed, solid American.
