Percentages intrigue our fancy. So
when we read that "55 per cent. OF
our presidents have been college
men" we wonder how many that
was. Twenty-seven men have held
the office and on that basis 1855
were college men. But Mr.. Hard
ing may be included and that would
idicate that 1914 were college men.
The fractions grow worse: k looks
as though someone was being in
suited. There is a further posi-
bility: some folks reckon Grover
Cleveland az the twenty-second and
the twenty-fourth president. This
makes Mr.. Harding the twenty ninth
president It's a strange thing that
in so important n matter. men can
not agree on how many presidents
the country has had. And when one
comes to fractional preside nts. the
task Of the percentage Ratherer
proves hopeless-Milwau JouI-
