COBBLER IN COOLIDGE'S TOWN
HAS EYE ON THE CAPITAL

NORTHAMPTON. Mass, March
16-James Lucey, member of shoes.
is pegging away in his shop here
with one eve on the newspapers
for word of how the national capital
treats Calvin Coolidge. his one-time
associate in local politics and now
vice president.
When Vice President Coolidge,
lust before departing for Washing
ton recently, grasped the cobblers
hand as the photographers snapped
their cameras he gave him a dis
tinction that he vas asked to eX-
plain. Put Mr. Lucey down as my
guide philosopher and friend" he
said. And so the cobbler is now ma
tionally known.
What the vice president meant
was more or less we'll known to
Northampton folk. The story goes
back to the days when Calvin Cool
idge was a sophomore at Amherst
College. With shoes to be repaired
he sought Lucey's shop on Gothic
stree in this city and then remain
ed to listen to the cobbler's COM
ments on topics of the day.
The student found the shoe maxi
er's philosophy so engaging that
during the remainder of his college
course he went frequently to see
him. As a lawyer later young
Coolidge opened offices here and
while he waited for clients, con-
tipued his acquaintance with the
cobbler. Throughout his career in
the politics of the city and state,
Mr.. Coolidge dropped in at the shoe
shop from time to time to exchange
ideas with his friend and have the
benefit of the latter's pointed polit-
ical observations.
The youthful Coolidge took away
lessons from the cobbler counsellor;
Coolidge the candidate received the
benefit of his influence which was
considerable in city politics. and
when he rose to a position of state
and national prominence he still
received the loyal support of the
shoeman. Mr.. Lucey modestly ex-
planning that Mr.. Coolidge long
since passed out his range of infu-
ence, admits that he may have been
of some help when the vice preSi-
dent was on the first rungs of the
political ladder.
The cobbler says that the only
time he ever crossed Calvin Cool
idge seemed to make flrmer the
friendship between them. Mr..
Coolidge had sought the election of
a friend as mayor and asked Mr..
Lucey as a delegate to the party

INVESTIGATE VENTILATION
FOR VEHICULAR TUNNEL

WASHINGTON, March 16:-Fur-
Their Investigations on ventilation OF
the projected Hudson river vehicu-
lar tunnel between New York City
and New Jersey are being made by
the Bureau of Mines in cooperation
with the tunnel commissions of both
states. The main problem present.
ed is that of rendering the air in the
tunnel safe for drivers while hun
dreds of automobiles are exhaustinS
gases from their motors.
|, TIL Bureau of Mines has built a
model OF the tunnel at Urbana,
where the University of Illinois is
located. and is conducting expert
ments to determine the best method
of moving the required amount of
air through the tunnel.
A number of Yale University stu
dents recently volunteered their
services in tests to determine the
effect of the motor gases on the
human system. Other experiments
have been made by the bureau at
Pittsburgh, to determine the amount
of air necessary to be mixed with
the gases to render them harmless.
A final check on all experiments
will be made at the Bruceton, Pa,
experimental station, where an oval
shaped tunnel having similar con-
struction ducts to those proposed in
the Hudson river tunnel and an
axial length of 400 feet is being con-
structed under ground. Efforts will
be made TO determine in this final
experiment.:
The diffusion of exhaust gases in
the cross-section of the tunnel;
Temperature conditions as affect
ed by the operation of internal
combustion motors:
Physiological effects of tempera-
ture; exhaust gases. and smoke un-
der operating conditions"

MADISON TOWN
SCHOOL FIGHT
Protest to Vote on New School
10 Take up Matter With
the Attorney General.

OLD BRIDGE, March ia spe-
cial meeting of the Madison Town
I ship Board of Education at the
Browntown school house at 1880
,Monday night. The meeting was
called to order by Clerk William
c. Ludi. At the roll call the follow
ing members responded: Theodore
Brown, C. Eikert, Edward Miller, ].
Gaub, Samuel 1. C~osgrove. W. Ben
nett. Parkerson Dill and L. II.
Quackenbush.
The meeting was for the purpose
of taking action on a petition OF
Monroe Gibson protesting the cleo
ton CT February "a. The petition
was read by Clerk Ludi and summed
up IL contained the following: Pro-
test against the ballot which was
attached to the petition on the right
side of the ballot was the resolu-
ton for the Old Bridge school not to
exceed $4,000. On the left side
was the Brunswick Garden school
item not to exceed $1,000. The voters
were given to understand that they
could vote for one but not for both
in fact the ballots read do not
vote for both"
At the close of the election there
were seventy-six votes for the Old
Bridge school and sixty-three for the
IL III IN No k&AH 11N H&A@
thirteen votes against both. TAX
ing the sixty-three votes for the
Brunswick Garden school and add
ing the thirteen against both 1t would
give the total OF seventy-six against.
and seventy-six for Old Bridge.
On the other hand taking the seven
ty-six for Old Bridge and also
against the Brunswick Garden and
adding the thirteen votes against
kAfh Would hn aiphfV-nina AGAINST
it. Therefore. according to the petit
ton. the Old Bridge proposition re-
suited in a tie: seventy-six for and
seventy-six against. n the Bruins
wick Garden had sixty-three for and
sighty-nine against.
The petition also protested against
the proposed site for the Old Bridge
school for several reasons; one be-
ing that the site not being or any
public highway o could not be APP
preached unless by crossing private
property and that it was too near
a noisy saw mill and dangerous for
children: furthermore, that the
board has no right to purchase a
new site as there is already a lot
belonging to the township given for
school purposes. within two or three
hundred yards of the proposed new
site.
Mr.. Ludi informed the board they
could take no other action than place
the petition on file, as the question
of the eligibility of the election rested
entirely with the attorney general
of the state. A motion was then
made by Mr.. Miller to accept the
petition and place it on file and was
seconded by Mr.. Dill and carried.
Mr.. Miller made a motion that the
bonds be raised by having the banks
bid on them, but on a motion by
Mr.. Quackenbush and seconded by
Mr.. Dill that the money be obtained
from the state education fund. Mr..
Miller withdrew his motion and Mr..
Quackenbush's was carried. There
were quite a number of citizens of
