MRS. COOLIDGE HELPS FRIENDS
FIND BARGAINS In FROCKS
New First Lady Proves Keen
Shopper, Declining Top
Price GoodS-SendS Trade
to Stores Giving Best
Values
BY ROBERT A. V. BRADSHAW
(Leased Wire Service to The Journal)
Copyright, 1927

WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-Twen-
ty-five dollars is a trifle steep for
foot gear, maybe.
Anyway, although the natty little
bronze slippers that had been trot-
ted out fit her just so, and the silver
grey ones that followed fitted just as
well, Mrs. Calvin Coolidge "shopped
some more" and got what she want
ed for less money, the other day
when she made the rounds of the
downtown shops in quest of evening
footwear.
Ever since she came to Washing
ton, the new first lady has done
much of her shopping hero, and the
astute bunch of psychologists be-
hind the counters of more than one
store know the likes and dislikes OF
the presidents wife to a 7. Like
wise, they can give you offhand a
sketch Of her chief characteristics.
AS in the case of shoes. Mrs.
Coolidge does not always take what
she looks at. Reports heve it that
she is neither "stingy" or extrava-
CANT shopper.
An attribute th@t has won her
many plaudits in the shopping world
is her willingness to give credit for
good service and good values. When
she gets something she likes, she
goes right out and boosts the
place where she got it.
Not long after she cane to Wash
ington, as the presidents wife, Mrs.
Coolidge went all alone into one Of
the downtown shops of thu popular
priced type. She was looking for
q frock. Out of the display put be-
fore her she picked fairly inexpen-
sive model of good lines and sub
stantial material. Slender of figure,
the frock suited her admirably.
Only when she gave her anne and
address did the saleswoman know
she was serving the first lady.
A few days late the wife of an i'm
portant senator entered the store
and asked ''to see some Of ( frocks
that Mrs. Coolidge was looking at
the other day." The store got Gus
toner and the SEM tors wife bar
gain.
Explaining her good luck the SEN
ator's wife said Mrs. Coolidge had
appeared at a luncheon in her new
frock, and that when admiring com
ment was heaped upon her costume,
the presidents wife replied:
'I got this at :0-and-so. They
have lovely things, and their prices
are not, high, either
Anyway so the story goeT $3.50
frock casually sold was responsible
for a half dozen sales in high gov
ernno9ntaI circles.
