ORK on the White House is interesting both the President and Mrs. Coolidge while they linger in New England, and they have almost daily letters and conferences of the progress of things. Acceptable news, probably authentic, is to the effect that the blue room is to retain its stately but simple French empire effect and decoration, while other rooms, such as the red room, where the first lady of the land generally holds her informal afternoon teas, are to yield up their overstuffed furniture and other pieces, which, after all, were never in accord with the historic portraits hanging there. THE President and Mrs. Coolidge are enjoying an over-Sunday visit in Plymouth, Vt., with his father, Col. John Coolidge. It is the second they have made there since going to New England for the Summer, and Mrs. Coolidge is enjoying it just as much as is her husband. She loves the old house and the quaint kitchen garden, with its rows of gay flowers, and the one sad touch to the journey will be when she and the President go to pay their visit to God's lone acre where rests the ‘body of Calvin Coolidge, jr.

Dr. Pedro Gonzalez, Minister from Nicaragua, arrived in Washington last month and is at present the only envoy on the list awaiting the return of President Coolidge from Swamp- scott, the Egyptian Minister, the only other arrival during the Summer, hav- ing journeved up to White Court and presented his papers. Dr. Gonzalez is the -first Minjater sent by the Nica- raguan Republic since 1923, when Gen.

Emery controversy.” It was the result of a mahogany concession granted by the Latin state to the great lumber cor. poration bearing that name. ragua was at that time, and had been for some time previously, unrepre- sented in Washington, so embittered had become relations; but as a result’ of this mission, a Minister soon after ‘was sent to Managua, and Nicaragua sent one to Washington.

He had served for some years in the Senate, was the governor of his state, Leon, and recently has been: Minister to Buenos Aires.
