INA CLAIRE IN "THE AWFUL
TRUTH"

Preceded by much agreeable report
of most favorable and enthusiastic
calibre, Ina Claire, always a welcome
visitor in the course of theatrical
season, is to be seen ut the Broadway
Theatre for one week beginning Mon
day evening, in Arthur Richmans COM
edy, 1.-The Awful Truth" In the latter
play Miss Clairs, among the most
charming and popular of our younger
American actresses, Is credited with
having achieved the most emphatic sue
cess of her career, appearing in it for
five months at Henry Miller's Theatre
in New York and, more recently, with
similar success. at Powers Theatre in
Chicago Twice the Chicago engage
ment was extended to meet the increas-
ing demand for seats. 1t is seldom
that n star or play comes to us more
enthusiastically endorsed.
In ''The Awful Truth" Mr.. .Riclman,
recalled agreeably as the author of
Not so Long Ago and Ambush" has
supplied Miss Claire with role dis
playing her innumerable and delight
her, as it does, with moments of the
subtle and deft light comedy in which
she cxcels. alternating with intervals
of slightly more serious import, when
Miss Claire is at once most appealing
and alluring. She is seen AS Lucy
Wnrriner. young and beautiful di-
yOrcee, of the 'smartest" set. whom
circumstances of n financial kind are
gradually driving toward II second de-
sirable matrimonial alliance A rich
Westerner, of good heart but blum eX-
terror. appears the most likely cnndi-
date for this distinction. His wooing
progresses impetuously and rapidly un-
til, after their engagement. his shrewd
and over-zealous aunt intimates to him
that at the time of his fancee's divorce
suit there had been hints that Lucy
herself had not been altogether hlame-
less. To her defense. when accused,
Lucy summons none other than her ex-
husband, who responds gallantly and
promptly. The three find themselves
at once cnmeshed in series of most
amusing situations, as may well he
imagined. The outcome to the strange
triangle is extremely surprising and
unexpected.
To intimate it in advance would be
unfair to the prospective auditors
pleasure in it,
Bruce McRae, probably the most pop
ulnr of all our American leading men.
and player of most delightful and
virilc methods, is seen as the oblig-
ing ex-husband. In the role Mr. Me.
Rae has met with II success second
only to that of Miss Claire. Other
characters i'm Mr.. Richman's comedy
are portrayed by such capable and dis
tinguished players Vs Cora Wither-
spoon, Louise Macintosh, Kyra Alan
OWL. Paul Harvey, Arthur w. Metcnlfe,
Raymond Walburn and Lewis Sealy
OF added interest and Importance is
the fact that '',The Awful Truth" was
produced under the personal supervi-
sion and direction of Henry Miller and
the production accorded tile play by
the Charles Frohman Company Is II
most elaborate and tasteful one, mark
ed with all those Frohman charater-
istics of great care and painstaking at

PRESIDENT COOLIDGE TAKES
UP .sEINs OF GOVERNING EMIT

Washington. The first shock
caused by the death of President Har-
ding somewhat abated, the nation
turned to Washington. eager to learn
how Calvin Coo lge, thirtieth Presi-
dent Of the United States, had acquit-
ted himself at the Capital with the
reins of government in his hands. The
official acts of the new executive were
few:
He issued proclamation setting
Friday, August 10, as day to be OBJ
served by the nation in paying hon.
age to the memory of Warren G.
Harding.
He announced the plans for the for
nal funeral services in Washington
Wednesday
He received newspa permen and de-
clared that the press can help the
administration in it's problems.
He deferred ali official business un-
til after the body Of President Har-
ding has been laid at rest in Marion.

up In Marion as 1t grew from a town
of 1900 to a city of more than 10000.
He was a director In a bank and In
several manufacturing companies, and
was trustee of Trinity Baptist
church.
His Rise In Politics.
AS editor and publisher of a lively
Republican paper ii was inevitable
that Mr.. Harding should take an ac-
tive interest In politics. and his attain
ments brought him to the front In the
state. He was a member Of the Ohio
senate from 1900 to 1904. and then
served as lieutenant governor Of the
state. In 1910 he was the Republican
nominee for governor. but was defeat
ed. In 1915 he was sent to the United
States senate. serving until 1920, when
he resigned TO make the campaign for
the presidency. In the preconvention
campaign that year he had been
looked on as one Of the possible nomi-
nees for the high Office, but his defeat
In the primaries for election Of dele
gates from Ohio seemed to spoil his
chances. However, the conservative
leaders of the Republican party pre-

patton In the League Of Nations. and

COOLIDGE WON NAME
AS FIRM GOVERNOR
His Suppression Of the Boston
Police Strike Made Him a
National Figure.

Boston. Calvin Coolidge, who be-
comes the thirtieth President of the
United States following the death in
San Francisco of Warren Gamalial
Harding, was born on July 4, fifty
one years ago, at Plymouth, VT, lit
tie town situated among the hills IL
miles from railroad. 1t has been
the birthplace of four governors, one
United States senator and several
congressman. The date Of President
Coollidge's birth, coinciding with the
date of the birth of the nation, always
has been spoken Of as being typical
of the Calvin Coolidge luck" He is
incidentally the third native Of Yer
mont to have become Vice President,
and it is coincidence that Chester A.
Arthur, one of his distinguished prede-
cessors, became President upon the
death of President Garfield. The third
was Levi P. Morton, Vice President
with President Harrison.
Calvin Coolidge entered political
life in 1899, when he was twenty-seven
years old. Like many American boys,
he had, even before he was able to
vote, shown deep interest in the po-
litical history of his country. In his
senior year in Amherst College in
1895, just before his graduation with
highest honor, he won the first prize,
a gold medal, awarded by the Sons OF
the American Revolution for the best
essay outlining the principles of the
American War for Independence. I'm
dergraduates in all American colleges
entered this competition, and the prize
consequently represented distin-
guished victory.
Entered Politics In Northampton
Following his graduation from Am
herst he studied law in the offices OF
Hammond G Field in that city and
was admitted to the bar in 20 months
after he began to prepare. 1t is not
recorded that Calvin Coolidge became
a great lawyer. Possibly the ground
work laid qualified him to rise in his

of November he received 404 cleo
toral votes to 127 for James NJ Cox
the Democratic nominee. He was In
augurated March 4, 1921, with de-
gree of simplicity In the ceremonies

Classed, when in the senate, as a
conservative. President Harding did
not depart markedly from conserva-
tive lines when in the White House,
though his supporters always said he
was as progressive as the good of the
country warranted and as conditions
permitted. He, like President Roose-
Welt, had a great coal miners strike on
his hands, and labored hard and with
measure of success to bring 1t to a
peaceful and just end.
Arms Limitation Conference.
The outstanding accomplishment OF
his administration was the great inter-
national conference for the limitation
Of armament held in Washington, open
ing on Armistice day, November II,
1921. At his instigation the confer
ence was authorized by congress and
after feeling out the big powers and
finding them agreeable he issued invi-
tations to Great Britain, France, Bel
GUM, Italy, Japan, China, the Meth
erlands and Portugal. Each country
sent some of its most eminent states
men as delegates, those of the United
States being Secretary Of State
Hughes. chairman Of the conference
Senators Lodge of Massachusetts and
Underwood of Alabama, and ex-Secre-
tary of State Elihu Root,
The conference adjourned February
9, 1922. after negotiating these
treaties:
A covenant of limitation to naval
armament between the United States,
Great Britain. France, Japan and Italy.
A treaty between the same powers
as to the use of submarines and nox-
ious gases in warfare.
A treaty between the United States,
Great Britain. France and Japan re-
lating to their insular possessions and
their insular dominions in the Pacific,
with a declaration reserving American
rights In inundated territory.
The Monmouth inquirer. [volume] (Freehold, N.J.) 1865-1933, 1923-08-09

A treaty between the nine powers in
the conference relating to principles
and policies to be followed in matters
concerning China.
A treaty between the nine powers
relating to Chinese customs tariff. Be
cause France refused to consider the
limitation of land armament at the
present time, that part Of the confer
ence fell through. But what it did
achieve was considered great step
toward the attainment Of world peace.
The treaties were soon ratified by the
United States senate and the British
parliament, and the other nations fol-
lowed suit, though for long time it
was feared France would not accept
the pacts. However. President Hard
ing lived to see them ratified by the
French chamber and senate.
Favored Entering World Court.
Mr.. Harding had not been long In
the White House before 1t appeared
that he did not favor entire isolation
of the United States from European
affairs. but believed this country
would have to do its part in the res
toration Of Europe to peace and sta
bility. This feeling became more evil
dent early In 1923 when he proposed
that America should accept member
ship In the international Court of JUS

Warren GamalieI Harding, twenty
ninth president Of the United States,
was born November 2, 1885. on his
grundfather's farm just outside the
village Of Blooming Grove, in Morrow
county, Ohio. He was descended from
two pioneer American families, hardy
Holland Dutch on the one side and lib
erty-loving Scotch on the other. His
father. DR.. George T. Harding, is still
a practiclng physician In Marion,
o., despite his advanced age Of seven
ty-nine years. His mother was Phoebe
Elizabeth Dickerson Harding.
Mr.. Harding was a self-made man In
the best sense of the phrase. He
worked on his c~andfather's farm and
attended the village school until he
was fourteen years old, and then he
entered the Ohio Central college at
iberia. He worked his way through
that institution by cutting corn, paint
ing his neighbors' barns and helping
on the grading of the roadbed of the
T. & o. G. railroad. He also played in
the village band and was editor of the
college paper.
When he graduated from the coli
lege, Warren went TO work in the vii
lage printing Office. AT the time he
was nineteen years old. his father
moved to Marion with the family and
there aided Warren financially in gain
ing control Of the Marion Star, Of
which he was publisher until after he
ssumtd the Office of president of the
United. States. Already he knew how
to set type and to do all the other
duties of printer, and when the limo
type was introduced he learned to op-
crate that machine. Always he car
ried as a pocket piece the printers
rule he used in those days.
The Star was his idol and he was
very proud of 1t and of the more than
friendly relations that existed be-
tween him and his employees There
was never a strike on the paper, and
about fourteen years ago he instituted
a profit-sharing plan whereby the en-
ployees received dividends that were
paid them In the form of stock In the
paper. Mr. Harding was identified
also with the industries that sprang

proved what has been shown again

gleness of purpose and unwayerng ap-
plication. Great lawyers have become
politicians, but few politicians have
ever become great lawyers.
In the years between 1901 and 1907
Mr.. Coolidge practiced law, 1t is true,
but he did not often appear as an adj
vocate III the higher courts in impor-
tant cases. His first election to po-
