| ‘GOVERNOR CHOOSES EVERY GOWN WORN BY MRS. COOLIDGE Sees Something That Pleases Him In Shop, Then Goes Home and Reports, HELPS PICK HATS, TOO. Wife of Vice Presidential Nom- inee Has Great Ambition: to Own a Flivver, By Hazel Canning. BOSTON, June 22.—One of the first @uties of any wife is to dress to please her husband. That is a bit of the feminine philosophy of Mrs. Cal- vin Coolidge, wife of the Vice Presi- dential candidate of the Republican Party. “And,” went on Mrs. Coolidge, ex- Plaining, “in my case, my dear, the duty is ‘quite easily performed, for the Governor chooses all my clothes.” ‘This great secret of state w: parted while the Governor and the Governor's lady were chatting with callers in their suite at the Adams House, in Boston, Now this news, with the pieture it calls up of a serl- ous Governor going out to select ruffies, and accordion plaits, natur- ally drew forth a bit of surprise from the audience, “No,” gaia one visitor. “Reaily?” Mrs, Coolidge, with amiling reas- @urance, explained: “Oh, yes he does, He chooses every dress I wear, and every ult, This way: On his walks the Governor sees something tn the shop windows which he likes; he jots down the shop; then, in the evening, I am advised: I saw something very fetching in the line of a gown in such a shop,’ says the Governor to me. ‘Guess you better go and get it.’ And I go, There could be nothing simpler.” Mrs., Coolidge, as she spoke, was dressed in one of the Governor's lat- est geloctions—a taffeta blue silk Eton suit, with accordion plaited skirt, and gold lace at the throat. “There's just one drawback to this programme,” Mrs. Coolidge admitted, “and that is hats, The Governor sel- dom notices hats or they are less sel- dom displayed in the shop windows. So we have to go hat hunting to- gether, he and I. That's the way I get them all. I would never consider @ hat unless it had passed first his approval.” , Now some women whose husbands had successfuly handled @ grave police strike and had been elected Governor twice, not to mention a long line of lesser political honors, extend- ing over twenty odd years, honors which ended with a Vice Presidential nomination, would be jifst a little ex- cited the first few days afterward. But not Mrs, Coolidge. This is her philospohy about a public man’s life, “Not to get excited and while ac- cepting, with gladness, the honors tie country gives your husband, not to be a. bit sorry if the honors do not come. Now you mention Wash- ington. Do you know, I haven't given Washington ‘6ne little thought. We are not elected yet, you know, I never cross my bridges till 1 come to them, And besides’—this with a bit of wistfulness—I like my Massa- chusetts friends so well I would hate to leave them “How do the boys, John and Calvin take father’s new honors?" Mrs. Coo- lidge was asked, John is thirteen and Calvin twelve. “There was a torch light procession and a band, and speeches, at North- ampton, our home,” the Governor's wife explained, “You see, I came down to Boston and left the boys at home. The next day they telaphoned us. ‘There was red fire and a brass band,’ they told papa. ‘And lots of men marched up to our house last night.’ “‘and what did you do?’ father asked, “‘Calvin got up and looked at tke gang a minute, in his pajamas, bu: I just stayed in bed,’ said John.” Mrs. Coolidge smiled. “They're just plain, little country boys a: yet,” eaid she. “When the boys went back to Northampton after the first inauguration the teacher thought they might have something to tell their class about the°way the Gov- ernor is inaugurated, which would be helpful, modern history, So she called on John. “‘Well,’ said John, ‘the luncheon was held in a very grand room and we had lots of chicken and fancy ices. In fact, some of the ices were so very fancy that you would have thought they were potatoes until you bit them,’ “The rent in Northampton, our home town, is just now @ more press- ing problem than a possible home in Washington," Mrs, Coolidge con- fessed, “But I have my ambitions, and the dearest of these is to own a Ford, I am “talking it up to the Governor, And I shouldn't wonder if, some day, 80 soon as we can af- ford it, we geally might own one,” my dear. their MRS.

IT MAY ‘HELP HARDING, Western Delegates Say Len- root’s War Record Was None Too Good, By David Lawrence (Special Correspondent of The Evening World.) PORTLAND, Ore., June 22. (Copy- right, 1920)—Harding and Lenroot was to have been the Republican ticket and the combination might have prevailed at Chicago, but for the interference of Wallace MoCam- ant, delegate from Oregon, who spoll- 4 the plans of the Old Guard by ‘ominating Gov. Coolidge at the Paychological moment when the en- tire convention was weary of ballot- ing and the name of the Massachu- setts Governor seemed to offer a popular candidacy for Vice-President, “Shortly after the nomination of Senator Hardin relates Mr. Mc- Camant, who has just returned here from the Ohicago convention, ‘the word was passed around that Senator Lenroot of Wisconsin was to be his running mate, In common with other members of the Oregon delegation, T did not receive the suggestion with enthusiasm for several reasons, In the first place, Mr, Lenroot had a prominent part some years ago in the fight to depose John C., Spooner. ono of the strongest and best political figures Wisconsin ever had. in favor of Robert M. La Follette, “Further than that his war record was none too good. I felt that we must look for leaders from those whose Americanism rang true during the great test. Together with other members of the Oregon delegation, we talked the matter over during the few mimutes that we had and Judge Carey, of Oregon, suggested thet I nominate Gov. Coolidge as Oregon's | chotce, MADE QUICK SHIFT FROM LODGE TO COOLIDGE. “During this time some one had nominated Lenroot, and when I jumped on top of a chair with the {dea of nominating the Massachusetts Governor I think the Chairman thought I wanted to second Lenroot's nomination, At any rate he recog- nized me readily in spite of the uproar the hall was in, and all I had time to Jeay was merely that the citizens of Oregon ‘had instructed the Oregon delegation to nominate one of the great citizens of Massachusetts (Sen- ator Lodge) for Vice President, but inasmuch as that statesman had asked that his name not be used we desired to place in nomination the name of another of Massachusetts’ great leaders, Gov. Coolidge. When the Massachusetts members heard the name they went wild, jumped up on chairs and shouted the name of COOLIDGE! “From many points throughout the hall came seconds to my nomiuation and when the roll was called it was soon evident that I had touched a popular chord. The action was en- tirely spontaneous, and ten minutes before I jumped to my feet nothing was further from my mind or from the minds of the other members of the Oregon delegation. “While I had not met Gov, Coolldge namely, unquestioned Americanism. MEDILL M'CORMICK HAD PRE- SENTED LENROOT'S NAME. The testimony of Mr. McCamant squares indeed with what was ob- served from the press box in Chicago and reveals for the first time what was behind the movement for Cool- idge. “The some one who had nominated Lenroot” was Senator Medill McCor- mick of Tilinois, who w turbed when Alexander Moore Pittsburgh jumped to his feet and seconded the nomination of Coolidge in behalf of Pennsylvania. This caused McCormick to rush over to the Pennsylvania delegation to find out what was the trouble. He asked Gov.
