JOHN QUINCY ADAMS

TINE chieftainship Of every great
l. nation still passed from father to
sOE until the presidency of the United
States was created, when the iiEst
freefor-al race and an even start for
the highest prize was opened to the
sons Vi men regardless of the accidents
OF birth.
Even John Quincy Adams did not
win the race, but was Outrun at the
polls by Andrew Jackson, the son or
an immigrant. Political parties hav-
ing disappeared In 1924 four men en-
tered the contest and deadlocked the
electoral college, Which left the house
of representatives to choose from
among the three highest candidates.
This eliminated the fourth man-Hen-
rs Clay-who aided In the election or
Adams and who received from the
new president the appointment OF
secretary OF state.
The only non-partisan admlniStra-
ton the codntry ever has had was not
a shining example of success. Unc0m'
promising. alone, John Quincy Adams
stalked his solitary way, never once
turning to the right or TO the left from
the strait aad narrow path of indepen-
dence. With no sense Of humor to re-
lieve his sense of self-righteOusness, to
light up hin view of his fellows or to
thaw his own icy virtues, 1t was I'M
possible for his supporters to feel any
enthusiasm for him.
John Quincy Adams led the simple
life in the White House. Getting up
at 3, he built his fire, read his daily
portion of the Bible and while the
government clerks still slept, he took
his walk or swim.
John Quincy Adams alone has solved
the problem of ex-presidents. He forgot
that he had been president at all aud
went to work like any other citizen
With his houses IN Quincy and Bos-
ton moltga ged aud the income from
his estate 100 slender for the support

heard the bark of the wolf at his door
as in his gloomy fancy he closed II
upon public life In his sixty-second
year. When some neighbors ventured
to ask the next year If It would he be-
meath his dignity to represent the old

this great American. who had been a
senator, minister at the courts OF

Heating Plant ard Chimney Fires.


Is every part of your heating plant
safe condition? Last year nearly 30
,er cent of the total number of Wis
onsin fires and about 26 per cent of
he total fire loss were due to heating
liant hazards. During 1919, in Wis
,onsin, 70 persons died, and lat were
INJURED through fire. In one case
whole family was wiped out. Think of
t, 73 precious lives and one million and
a half of property sacrificed largely
because of carelessness. The discov-
cry and remedy of heating plant haz-
ards are not particularly technical, and
call only for the exercise of ordinary
care and good common sense.
You believe in protecting the lives of
those dear to you. your home, your
