He has made a rule that the after- noons are his own, so rarely are ap- pointr made after lunch. The people sees then are those he sends ordinarily cabinet officers, Congressmen and others in the Gov- ernme At these sessions the vis- itors do the talking. instance of this was Borah and Harry M.

He did not wait for Congress to formulate the measures he advocated, but had the Represent- atives down and took am active part in the preparation, so that by the| time such a bill as that providing for the Federal Reserve Bank system was ready to go to Congress he knew as much about it as the man whose name was identified with the meas- ure. Harding had less patience with the beginnings. His habit was to take the product of others and accept it or amend it. Coolidge has a fashion of his own in_dealing with this sort of business. He lets it rest until he is ready to decide. Then he gets all the data, secludes himself in his office and lets nothing interfere until that particular job is out of the way. If it has been a strenuous period he usually goes out for another walk in the late afternoon. This is when he does his window shopping. Wash- ington has become quite accustomed to see him strolling along Pennsyl- vania avenue or F street. When W son did it he attracted a lot of atten- tion because he did it so rarely, and Harding never did it at all. Appar- ently variety means nothing to Mr. Coolidge, for his walks are along the same blocks day after day. The Winter irks him because it in- terferes with these promenades. When the bad weather contmues for several days he gets on his galoshes and tramps, notwithstandin, but the slush annovs him and he waits until the weather becomes pleasant again before repeating his walk Has Never Been Seen Playing Any Game. Sometimes, during the war period, Wilson used to surprise the Sec tary of State or of War, or the chair- man of the Shipping Board, by arriv- ing at their offices without notice, explaining he had come to them in- | who made it his business to send a | tinued. The present Chief Executive does not care very much for the movies. His evenings, when there are not guests, are usually devoted to his books. He goes to bed early as.a rule and sleeps a full eight hours Wilson was an intermittent slceper, and Harding gave himself small time for it. The President’s Sundays, after he is through at the ecxecutive offices, show small variation. He attends church with Mrs. Coolidge and then boards the Mayflower for an over- night trip. The yacht steams’ thirty or forty miles down the river and anchors. A chaplain is in attend- ance and there are Sunday afternoon services. At these services and at tea his guests see him. The rest of the time he is sleeping or reading. A Happy President. It is, of course, different when his guests are people he has asked for governmental or ' political reasons On these occasions he simply trans- fers his office from the White House to the yacht. Even then he is spar- ing of speech, asking what questions are necessary to bring out the infor- mation he requires, as for example when he had Assistant Attorney Gen- eral Donovan with him, after the Wheeler episode had ralsed so much commotion over the confirmation of Dean Stone to be a Supreme Court Justice. Stone had taken the administration by surp with his purpose of bring- ing the case to Washington, and as Donovan was the man directly in charge of the case the President sum- | moned him to tell him about it The presidency, it wil be observed, is rather a lonely job, unless, like Harding, the man who holds it| simply refuses to be a prisoner.

Mr. Coolidge, up to this time at least, has relied on his secretaries more than did his predecessors, and it is perhaps for that reason that his desk is always clear. When he has the commissions signed, and the par- don applications digested, and the rest of the routine work out of the way he is given to turning his chair toward the window and gazing out into the White House grounds and gardens, sometimes for 15 minutes without moving a muscle.
