CHARLES NoRMAN's LIBRARY

Billie Brownie had gone again to
call on Charles Norman. Charles Nor
man was now about a year Old-well,
he was little more than q year old.
and strange as 1t may seem he was
collecting books.
'I'm going to have big library" he
told Billie Brownie "Of course, I
won't bother about reading now, and
then Ill have to be read TO before I'll
read to myself. AT present I'm too
busy with other matters"
"What other mattersT Billie
Brownie inquired.
swell, I'm interested In drinks Of
my carriage and In sweet sleep and
sunshine and out-of-doors and my
mothers society and my daddys so
ciety and all such important things.
my daddy takes care of me all the
time he is home from the office. He
loves to do that and 1 love 1t, too
well that takes up all that much time.
"And when my daddy is at his office
my mother is constantly with me If
am not asleep on my sunny porch
and that takes up all that much time.
Then they sit and look at me and
chuckle with delight about me and l
chuckle, too, so as to be polite. Really,
l enjoy it hugely, too.
"They say am decidedly boyish in

one Of my reasons anyway. Another
Is that 1t Is expected Of me to CRY

"But I don't cry much. It's waste
Of time, and as I told you of all the
other things l have to keep me busy
you will realize that 1 haven't much

Il was going to tell you about my

time, l have any number of beautiful

But at the same time don't need

Brownie, I've bank account
"And then some one gave me a book.
Well, my mother showed 1t to me and
grinned and made little 'talky
sounds, she said, and she also told me
I'd been especially good after receiv-
Ing 1t. She said books made people
contented and happy and pleased.
And she said I thanked the one
who sent me the book by sending q

all this. l do love the way my mother
expresses herself and talks. It's not
Just like every one else. It's always

But I'll teal you, Billie Brownie,
the book itself wasn't anything much.
1t gave my mother an idea, though, to
start a library for me while was
young 30 I'd have quite fine one
when I grew up, and while growing
up.
so l have a library and quite a

II shall read and read and read, but
I'll tell you one thing, Billie Brownie,
the pictures In the books won't come
up to my mothers pictures, for oh,
how she can draw! It's pretty fine to
think Of having some one who can
really draw right In the family.
Maybe there will be pictures by
her In some of the books. Then the
books will be perfect.
'But 1t is a good Idea to starr a H.

"And now 1 must bid you a polite

and call on me again soon. My grand
father is coming to call on me now
and must give him my entire atten-

COOLIDGE WELL. EQUIPPED
FOR PRESIDENTIAL DUTIES

President Calvin Coolidge is perhaps
better equipped by experience to take
up his administrative duties in the
White House than was any Of his pre-
decessors who have been called to
that high Office by the death of a pres-
ident.
He has kept throughout the Hard
ing administration closely advised as.
TO the problems of the federal govern
ment and has assisted in shaping ad-
ministration policy by his constant at
tendance at cabinet meetings.
Although vice presidents usually
have no other duties to perform than
that of presiding over the senate, cast
ing the deciding vote when that body
finds itself In a tie, Mr.. Coolidge alb
sented himself from It's sessions every
Tuesday and Friday to participate in
the cabinet deliberations. Thus he be-
came familiar not only with all angles.
Of the major public questions, but alsc,
with the reasons ~actuating the Presi-
dent In his decisions.
