I JAVANA.—Cuba is setting a new masculine fashion. #'the men here wear the guayabera. “Visitors to this tropical land quickly fall into line and adopt the guayabera because of its comfort. Even such con- servative men as Gov. J. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, honeymooning here with his bride, discard formal coats and | All tigs.and get into guayaberas. ” Gov. Thurmond was introduced to the guayabera for the sake ‘of Cuban “atmosphere”. in. But once it was on, the + “What do you call this thing? A guayabera? Can you! He expected to take it right off governor asked: wear it anywhere in town? Huh, I'm going to keep it on.” »* The new fashion wins friends like that.

NICHOLAS MURRAY (Continued From Page One) uted important service to the party by assisting in the fram- ing. of state and national plat-' forms and legislative measures. His Name In Electoral College | He was chairman of the New York state Republican conven-: tion in 1912 and the same year was ‘a delegate to the national convention which renominated William Howard Taft for presi- dent and James S. Sherman for vice’ president. The latter died October 30, that year, only a few days before the election, and the four Republican members of the electoral .college cast their xot for Df. Butler for vice presi- dent. .The Columbia president took a.prominent part in the proceed- ings of the Republicyn national | convention of 1916, when he was | - chairman of the regulations com- mittee. In that convention he was an advocate of the short bal- ih nd favored woman suffrage. is own state honored him in 1920 by presenting him as New | York's candidate for the Repub- lican nomination for president On the first ballot Dr. Butler re eeived 69 votes and continued to | be. recognized on each succeed- | ing ballot including the final when Warren G. Harding was | nominated. | Tt was in 1926, when the Re- | publicans sought him candidate for governor of New York state, but Dr. Butler in de- | clining stressed the importance of.his position in the educational | world. The presidency of Colum- bia was not merely an institu- | tienal office, he held, but one which, undisturbed by the clamor and selfishness of per- | sonal struggle and the instabil- | ity of’ public temper and opinion, | had no equal in American na- tional life in the limitless range it:offered for contributing to the advancement of the community. | When national _ prohibition | went ‘into effect he remained a cobsistent and determined oppon- ent of the 18th amendment and the Volstead act and frequently expressed his oppoistion in ~pub- lic addresses. One of those oc- casions was the Missouri Society moral principle and public spirit” to: strike the 18th amendment gem the constitution. ~ Durable Peace Outlined His address attracted nation- wide attention and sometime later Dr, Butler announced that he had received more than 10,000 letter's and 2,300 telegrams with a‘proportion of 200 to 1 com- mending him.

Noting a news story on the unusual anniversary of J. W.

Arnold, the more talkative of the two, said: “There would be fewer di- vorces among young people if they would stay out of taverns and not stay up late drinking and carousing; if wives stopped jooking at other men, and hus- bands wouldn't look at other women. “And if wives would go to bed early, then get up and get a good breakfast for their hus- bands to work on: instead of staying in bed. “My wife always has meals ready when I come home. She stays home and tends to her knitting. We share in handling the money. Young couples should do everything possible to keep their love light glowing. Real love has nothing to do with age. I think we are as much in love as we have always been.” (They eloped to St. Louis when he was 18 and she was 14.) Arnold said: “We always had the tastes and liked the same things. We share in the house work, washing dishes and such. “My motto on getting along is —Always -pay your debts and tell the ‘truth at all times, even te: your wife.” 4 & Daughter to Medinas i.Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Medina, 1024 White street, announce the birth of a daubhter in the Key West Municipal Hospital at 1:20 a. m.,. yesterday...

The President’s party followed Southard street to Duval street, to Division street and thence by Roosevelt. Boulevard to Boca Chica. All along the streets were small groups of civilians, watch- jing the cavalcade pass by, but not near the numbers that were on hand to greet the President last Wednesday. Today there were none of the school chil- drep out to see “the President Pass. Yesterday the President spent a very quiet day. The only state- ment issued from the temporary White House at the Sub Base was a brief one sent out shortly after the President had heard of the death of Dr, Nicholas Murray Butler, president emeritus of Columbia University, New York. “The President deeply regrets to hear of the death of such a distinguished American educa- tor and citizen,” said the mes- sage through Charles G. Ross, White House Press Secretary. At 9:30 a. m., President Tru- man attended divine services at the chapel at Base. The President walked to the chapel and then walked back to his quarters afterwards. President Truman joined the congregation, which was a small one, in singing the hymns, “Holy, Holy, Holy,” “Saviour Likes a Shepherd,” “Amazing Grace” and “Eternal Father.” He listened with attention to the sermon delivered by Lt. W. J. Davis, CHC, Protestant chaplain at the Submarine Base. He spoke on the subject, “The Man With a Handicap.” After the service the Presi- dent left the chapel ahead of Chaplain Davis, but waited for him to come out of the tiny edi- fice. Then he shook hands with Chaplain Davis and thanked him for the sermon. Following the church services President Truman donned blue swimming trunks and rode out to the private beach at Fort Tay- lor, on which he likes to stretch out and sun himself. He was said to have remarked on the contrast between yester- day, a qQiet day in Key West, and on that Sunday just six years ago, when the Japanese at- tacked Pearl Harbor, and started the United States on a global war. Then Washington was in the throes of excitement. The Presi- dent, then a U. S. Senator, was in Washington at the time and later.
