we did understand the Norwegian

we want instead Of the things they
want US to have, all will be smooth
sailing. They do not call it proper

it anything short Of queer that we
ask for cold water and refuse wine.

The Coolidge red was made fash
ionable by her soon after coming to
Washington, but recently she has
taken to wearing blue great deal
because it is SO economical. She also
has been noted for her well shod
feet, generally having footwear match
her costumes. Mrs. Coolidge plays the
piano, insisting that she does 80

both Of whom play stringed instru-
ments.
The boys have been away at school
most of the time their parents have
been in Washington, with the result
she says, that their music has not
caused much annoyance to Mr.. Cool

While Mrs. Coolidge found the du-
ties Of the wife Of the vice-president
arduous, she always showed marked
vigor and pleasure in meeting them.
Deeply interested in the welfare Of
her husband. she has been frequent
visitor TO the senate galleries, where
she followed the debates over which
he presided. She often accompanied
him on his speaking trips.
An interesting fact is that Mrs.
Coolidge, before her marriage, was a
teacher in the Clark deaf-mute school
at Northampton, and is quite an ex-
pert in the sign language and finger
alphabet used by the deaf.
Tall and graceful with black hair
and blue eyes, Mrs. Coolidge has al

 Ensley and Woodlawn will meet in the second game of the city high school championship series next Tuesday night. Ensley has obtained the edge in the pennant battling with victory over Central high in the first game of the series.
 Fort Benning always puts out a splendid basketball team and the Georgians will more than likely make things interesting for the Blues next week.
 Coach Ervin's men showed great form in winning from Dallas Y. NJ c. A. Saturday night, at least, they showed form in flashes, enough to run up a big score on the Huntsville lads. Had the Blues maintained their good shooting throughout the game, the final score could have been al- most anything.
 Ensley and Woodlawn will point toward their first meeting of the 1923 season next Tuesday in their practice sessions between now and then.
