Pepys tells of paying one of these layers of napkins very well for “laying of my napkins against tomor- row’s feast.” Now the only knack required to lay a tablecloth so its highest beauty radiates is to have the cloth exquisitely laundered. That means TOLMANIZED —washed in filtered water and fine white soap, repeatedly rinsed, and secretly processed to that flexible body texture that dlstmgu:shes new linen.

PLYMOUTH, Vt, August 20— President Coolidge's annual pilgrim- age to his father’s home drew to a close today after nearly a week's stay. Rofreshed by the change of climate and the almost complete relaxation he has enjoyed here, he turned toward Swampscott, planning to spend to- night, en route there, at Northampton, Mass. He expects to be back at the Summer White House by tomorrow afternoon On his visit here, which was origi- nally intended to continue three or four days, but which was prolonged by the President to a six-day stay, he found his 80-vear-old father, Wwho cight weeks ago was critically ill, completely recovered. The stop at Northampton, where the President lived for years prior to his election of Vice President, is the home of Mrs. Elmira Goodhue, mother of Mrs. Coolidge. While in Northampton President and Mrs. Coolidge will visit Mrs. Good- hue, who lives in the half of a two- family dwelling which the Coolidge family occupied at the time they went to Washington. The last and only time the President has | since entering the White House was a year ago, when a stop was made for funeral ‘serwces when the body of Calvin, jr., was being brought from ‘Washington to Plymouth for burial.
