CODLIDGE'S WIFE FAGES GREAT TASK Hundreds of Gilts to Her and; Presideat Must Be Packed ashington, Feb. 19, (UP)—De- ture from the White House for esident Coolidge will mean, main- 1y, the step into private citizenship from the most exalted elective office in the nation. For Mrs. Coolidge it already has meant hours spent in superimftending the packing of hun- dreds of gifts received at the execu- Coolidge tive mansion during the regime. A fly swatter, boxes of ordinary books white candles, hand lotion, bearing no evi- of the manner in which he death, was found yesterday in Physicians said the fact that no water was in his it certain he was placed Tast_csbinet, ‘elgborately tackles, cigara, and gewgaws tully packed crates under sonal direction. Preparations for leaving the White House were begun as early as November. A van load of be- longings was taken to the Coolidge home in Northampton, Mass., when the President and first lady visited there to vote in the presidential election. Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays spent away from Wash- ington interrupted packing and preparations for the Coolidge exo- dus March 4, but they were recom- menced immediately after the President’s return from his Yule- tide visit to Sapelo, Island, Ga., and have been under way up to the present. Regardless of Mr. Coolidge’s vo- cation after he leaves office, it vir- tually is certain he will return to Northampton. He himself has said that would be the ‘“‘natural” proce dure, and persons close to him | have indicated the likelihood of a visit, perhaps not prolonged, to the homestead associated with his early political career. ‘Whether Mr. Coolidge will re-open his law practice there is uncertain. Numerous ~ positions ranging from college presidencies to high posts in national firms, have been offered him. Characteristically, however, Mr Coolidge has declined to discuss his future plans. Questioned per- ! | sistently regarding his post-offictal life, he as persistently declared his intention of devoting every minute of the closing days of his administration to governmental af- fairs, rather than burden himseif with_the attempt to map out his personal course after March 4.

Carpenter of Seat- tle, Wash., in the school auditorium. The gasps of astonishment, heard |continually in the hall, indicated |that the children were as much ex- cited by Dr. Carpenter's revelations of the major planets as they would be over a movie-thriller. The loud- est explosion occurred when they learned that finding the diameter of a star is like computing the diam- eter of a 25 cent piece at a distance of 75 miles.

Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, who has spent almost a year as a guest instructor in the American school at Constantinople, ia arriving late today on the liner President Wilson. Although she Mas been advised of his engagement by radio, it is pre- sumed the colonel will be at the Jersey City pler to greet her and tell her personally of his plans to marry the daughter of the Ameri- can ambassador to Mexico. Colonel Lindbergh arrived from Washington at Curtiss field yester- day voluble on aviation, but silent on all matters pertaining to his en- gagement, After bringing his plane to earth he sat in the cabin for eight min- utes while reporters waited impa- tiently for an opportunity to inter- view him. His fage wreathed in a cheerful smile, the colonel: descended, spoke enthusiastically of the new Pan- yAmerican mail line which he in- |augurated and declared the route a thoroughly practical one. “Colonel, are you feeling as happy as you look?" someone asked. A frown replaced his grin, but he did not answer. “Colonel Lindbergh, when are you going to Mexico City?" was the next question. The colonel hesitated a moment and replied: “Are there any other questions you care to ask?” There was another question and it was: “Colonel, is there anything pertaining to Miss Morrow that you would care to discuss?” Apparently there was not as the colonel merely repeated his query Whether there were any other ques- tions, The interview then returned to aviation and Colonel Lindbergh dis- closed that after a few days in New York he would fly to the Pacific coast in the interest of the Trans- continental Air Transport, of which he is technical adviser.

Then the lights die out and Rupert is once again a less structure of cold steel. Bewildered, young John follows the directions, and sure enough, walks straight into a restaurant, Now what has happened is this. When the youth pushed the but- ton on Rupert's tummy a light showed on a switchboard in fromt of a man at a table in a corrol room.
