Old Faithful will spout for him hourly as it has been doing for untold years past, the bears, tame under the protection of the law, will probably eat from his hand and he will see all of the other sights of the park, just as you and | I if we were there. Even at that there are times when | we feel sorry for Calvin, or any president for that might aspire matter, to the other much as we position. There is one thing that we have on President Coolidge, and that is a very desirable thing to have when communing with nature. We could go out to Yellowstone and no one would pay us any par- ticular attention, 'twould be easy to get “far from the maddening crowd.” And Cal will have to be escorted by a miscellaneous group of secret followers, and admiring service re- porters (darn villagers. men, camp ‘em) Which cannot be too peaceful for Cal, though it may be exciting. Bet he wishes he could grow a beard and change his stature over- night. We would were in his shoes. it we Just at this time. Speaking of Coolidge, we see by the papers that our own John Henry Roraback (is that his first name?) says that Coolidge can carry Con- necticut in 1928, though he does not yet want to go on record as favor- ing drafting the president for an other term. ‘Which reminds of the “collegiate” Ford we saw on the strect the other | day.

MARLE IDEA OF ENGLISH NOVEL According to Joseph Richard Marlen The Love of Lady Claire Lady Claire Cholmondeley was blooming bedroom. Was she making up the jolly face? Righto! And oh, 1 say, reader, old thing, but she was doing a jolly, well good job of it, don’t you know! She was putting on her eyebrows in a deucedly clever manner when the door, silly old doors often do, you know, opened suddenly. And In the door stood a chap known at the club as Lord Raspenbury—a silly old bean whom Lady Claire lated in a most positive way. Rath- er beastly situation, what? “Oh, 1 say, old dear, tootle-00, sneered Raspenbury, mocking smile on his hateful face. “We are going to elope tonight. A jolly fine night for a bally old elopement, this! Eh, what? Righto?” -oh!" said Lady Claire in one of those calm voices, you know. “Old bean, if you move one silly o0ld inch towards me I'll jolly well scream!” Raspenbury’s answer was a beast- ly smarl, and with a cry of fury he leaped forward in a most disagree- able way. Exciting place, eh, what? “Elp!" sand out Lady Claire. And as Raspenbury started toward her the blooming door opencd fn a hored manner, you know, and the Earl of Whirl blew in. “Oh, 1 say! Pip-pip,” he said sternly, “what Is the jolly meaning of this beastly awkward situation?” “Cheerio, old fruit”” explained Lady Claire, “Lord Raspenbury has been cutting up in a most irritating way."” I—aw—well, I really dislike to tell what happened next. Beastly boring, you know. Fighting, and all that sort of thing. Quite enough to say though, that Raspenbury got the jolliest kind of a trouncing and that in another minute the Earl and and Lady Claire were in each oth- er's arms! Silly of them, what? Their lips met in the most jolly way. Oh, T say. Haw! Haw! Haw! A WEE BIT O’ SCOTCH! Dear Mr. Judell: Last June when I toured Scotland I had to take a trip by stage. The only seat left was on top.

How long did it take for the ceremony when the Crown Prince Leopold of Belgium was married to Princess Astrid of Sweden? A. They were married November 10, 1926 at the Church of St. Michael and Gudule at 11:55 a. m., Brussels, Belgium. The Catholic ceremony and service was performed by the Archbishop of Malines. The entire church ceremony, which be- gan at 11:15 a. m. lasted forty minutes. This church ceremony fol- ilowed the civil wedding performed {in the Swedish Royal Palace at Stockholm on November 4, 1926, Q. What is the story of the erec- {tion of the statue in South America called “The Christ of theAndes?" A. Tn 1903 the South American republics of Chile and Argentina, having happily settled by arbitration a long-standing boundary contro- versy which threatened to involve the two countries in war, mutually bound themselves by treaty to re-| duce their military and naval arma- ments and for a stated period to submit every matter of dispute aris- ing between them to arbitration. Upon one of the highest houndary ranges of the Andes mountains the two nations have erected a colossal bronze statue of Christ as the sacred guardian of the peace to which they are pledged. The statue was un- veiled March 13, 1904. It is called The Christ of the Andes”, and bears the following inscription: “Sqoner shall these mountains | crumble into dust, than Argentines and Chileans break the peace which at the feet of Christ the Redeemer they have sworn to maintain", Q. Does an alien have to apply for citizenship in the United States in order that he may marry an American citizen? X, No; Q. Are all the children of Theo- dore Roosevelt married? A. Alice, Theodore and Kermit Roosevelt are married. They are the only living children of Theodore Roosevelt. Q. What is sodium chloride? A. Common table salt. Q. When is Independence Day in the Republic of Peru? A. July 28. On that date in 1§21 General San Martin proclaimed the independence of Peru. Q. What is the distance between New York and Sydney, Australia, and New York and Yokohama, Japan, by way of the Panama Canal? A. From New York to Sydney is 11,160 miles from New York to Yokohama 11,169 miles. Q. What is the best way to clean the face with a cleansing cream? A. Take a cleansing cream and thoroughly clean the face by rub- bing the cream well into the skin. Wipe off with tissue paper or a soft cloth. Apply a skin food massaging it into the skin with movements upward and outward. Wipe off and apply ice cold water. Q. Is the number of guns fired by vessels in saluting various digni- taries such as kings, emperors, presidents of republics, etc. uniform in the various countries? A. No. Formerly in Germany, the Kaiser was saluted with one hundred and one guns. In most of the countries of the world, however, there is a uniformity of salute of twenty-one guns to sovereigns or heads of states. Q. What do the initials V. D. B., on the 1909 Lincoln penny, stand tor? A. Victor D. Brenner, signer of the coin. Q. Is it better to use gasoline or just ordinary for cleaning purposes? A. The ingredients in high-test gasoline are of no value in dry- cleaning. Some high-test gasoline manufacturers state that their par- ticular brang of high-test gasoline should not be used for cleaning pur- poses—neither should it be allowed to get in cuts as ulcers and sores may develop. Q. Who was the greatest German ace in the world war? A. Captain Von Richthofen (killed April 21, 1918). He is credit- ed with 80 enemy planes. Q. Who played the part of “Teddy Ward” in the picture “Fas- cinating Youth'? A. Charles Rogers. Q. Why is Jack Dempsey re- ferred to as the “Manassa Mauler”? A. Because of his birthplace, Manassa, Colorado, and the fact that he is such a terrific hitter or mauler. Q. Why does a snake have to be in an S-shaped position to strike? A. When a snake strikes from its usual S-shaped curved position, the anterior half of the body which is thrown forward must be free from coil. In striking, the snake simply straightens out the S-shaped curves. It does not have to be in this position to strike, for observation has shown that when irritated most of our poisonous snakes can strike from almost any position for short distances. The greatest length of stroke s ahout three-fourths the length of the snake. The idea that a venomous snake can strike its full length or even greater distance is a popular but erroneous belief. the de- high-test gasoline Observations On The Weather Washington, Aug. 24.—Forecast for Southern New England: Partly cloudy and cooler tonight.
