I PRESIDENCY ana nelQ seat III congress
| 16 years.
The only non-partisan Administra-
ton the country ever has had was
not a shining example of success. I'm
compromising, alone, John Quincy
stalked his solitary way. never once
turning to the right or to the left from
the straight and narrow path of indie
pendence. With no sense Of humor
to relieve his sense of self-righteous-
ness, to light up his view Of his fell
lows or to thaw his own icy virtues, it
| was impossible for his supporters to
| feel any enthusiasts SIN for him, as Dan
del Webster's brother Ezekiel said,
| unless we disembowel ourselves like
| a trussed turkey of all that is human
nature within u.s."
A rule unto himself in all things,
John Quincy was defiant even of the
conventions of dress. Notwithstand-
: ing he grew up in the courts of
| Europe, he was the most shabbily
| dressed man who has sat in the Presi-
Dental chair. 1t is a tradition at
Washington that he wore the same hat
10 years. "This the President of the
United States!" was the involunta ry
exclamation Of stranger who called
on him at Quincy in vacation time and
l
jeans trousers and an old straw hat.
John Quincy surely led the simple
| life in the White House. Getting up
at 5, he built his fire, read his daily
portion of the Bible and while the
| Government clerks still slept, he took
his walk or swim. One morning, as he
was enjoying himself in the waters of
the Potomac, somebody stole his
clothes from the bank. What must
have been the surprise of passing
boy when a short, fat, bald-headed
man. who was pacing the shore in a
state of nature, shouted at him to run
up to the White House and ask Mrs
Adams for suit of clothes for the
President.
One other innocent diversion
brought trouble upon John Quincy
Fond of playing billiards with his sol
and secretary, he put a billiard table
in the White House for which the
puritanical President was denounced
as gambler. Having also furnished
} the east room, the Jacksonians hel(
| him up as a spendthrift, and the ere
dulous folks out on the frontier were
made to believe that this most asceti'
, man was squandering their money ii
a life of regal splendor.

LOUISE CATHERINE JOHNSON
" IITHIN the present limits of the
" Massa chusetts city of Quincy,
the visitor may see what can
not be seen anywhere else, the birth
places and the graves of two Presi-
dents, side by side.
The craftsmanship of every great
Nation still passed from father to son
until the Presidency of the United
States was created, when the first
free-for-all and an even start for
the highest prize was opened to the
sons of men regardless of the acct
dents of birth. In this fair test, new
blood has won every time with only
two exceptions in a century and a
qua rter.
The result would be the same every
where. Not monarch in Europe to-
day could have gained his throne in
fair competition. Nature is a demo
crat.
Even John Quincy Adams did not
win the race, but was outrun at the
polls by Andrew Jackson, the son of
an immigrant. In bitter disappoint
ment that he should not have been
elected by the people, rather than by
Congress, he declared that he would
refuse the office if he could only
bring about a new election Surely
no other President ever stepped into
the White House with so little glad
ness in his heart.
Political parties having disappeared
in 1924, four men entered the contest

highest candidates. This eliminated

Real Need Is For Real
Homes, Not Apartments
State ,JOurna


In helping solve the housing prob
lem of the cities the apartment house
meets a very real demand. There is
need for such houses with sufficient
rooms to care for families. There is
place for others with smaller quar-
tiers where bachelor apartments may
be maintained 1t Is we'll for cities
to have apartment houses in such
number az to help meet the demand
for quarters from those who prefer
to live in rooms without the advan-
tag eof yard and garden.
But It is far better for a city to
have q hundred new separate homes
erected than to have hundred-family
apartment house constructed. The
proper and natural way of living is
for one family to have house, with
the little grass plot in the yard, a bit
a garden in the back part of the lot,
with the freedom and conveniences
and privacy that separate homes pro
vide. Columbus has a housing de
mand now that calls for some more
apartment houses, those with proper
conyeniences and a rental not too
great But it has a greater need for
more separate homes. There are hun
dreds of vacant lots, in every section
of the city. Homes should be built
on these lots, the cost of the building
being suited to the neighborhood
There is great need for the homes
that will care for small families
homes within the purchasing power
of the man Of limited means, who
has saved some money, is we'll EN-
ployed and wants to pay out for his
home during the coming years. Every
man is a better citizen when he be
comes a home owner.
