A Marvellous providence is clearly
shown in the event which places in
the Presidents chair the successor
of the leader suddenly deceased.
Mr.. Calvin Coolidge has evidently
been in course of preparation, with
out our knowing, for the great task
which now falls to him. He is a
man of rich mental endowment.
Internationally he is thoroughly
equipped. He is an A. B. graduate
OF Amherst College, and the degree
OF L L D. has been conferred upon
him by Amherst, Tufts, Williams.
Bates. Wesleyan. and the University
of Vermont. He is man of I'M
questioned Christian character, q
member Of the Congregational
Church. He has had wide politi-
cal experience. His greatest repu-
tation was gained while he was
Governor of Massachusetts. The
volume Of his collected addresses
and papers under title OF Believe
in Massachusetts'' when distributed
throughout the nation turned the
eyes Of the land toward him as a
leader who would be worthy OF bear
ing any banner.
Mr.. Coolidge has won his place
in the confidence Of the nation by
his courageous action in the face of
trying social situations. He has
always been a brave fighter among
the moral forces. The hand of God
was evidently in the act which made
him the nominee for Vice President.
The confidence and prayers of the
Christian people Of the United
States are his as he takes up his
heavy burden as President. Nash .

SAYS PEOPLE INHABITED
 COLORADO 5000 YEARS AGO
Superintendent of National Park in Western State Discovers Dwell
 lings of Early Races

Durango, Colo, Nov. 14.-A race antedating the Christian era by 1,- 900 years inhabited the southwest, is the statement made here recently by Jesse Nusbaum. superintendent of the Mesa Verde national park, Colorado after the uncoyering Of house said to have been inhabited by people long before the cliff dwelcrs arrived in the section now known as the Mesa Verde National Park.
 The Nusbaum discovery was made about eight feet beneath the floor Of foundation, of a cliff dwelling and in the same cavern, located about mile south Of the Spruce Tree house in the park, Tho tribe, according to Nus baum and other members of the party that unearthed the house, belonged to what arc known as the basket -mak- CTS" and their presence here was es- tablishcd beyond a doubt by the class Of pottery discovered in the house, it was said.
 This pottery Nusbaum asserts, is easily identified as of period at least 1000 years before Christ, and other evidence was found to justify the statement that this region was in- habited by humans long before the cliff dwellers arrived. The pottery is of crude clay. tempered with cedar bark, a process used by the earliest sncients. 1t has an adobe color with slight pinkish cast.

WISCONSIN MAN OWES
 SUCCESS TO MUSKMELON
Postmaster, Aged 78, Says That Pro- duction of Fruit Was What
 Pulled Him Through

Mukwonago, Wis, Nov. 1.-The success of many men has been at tributed to various strange things, but few, it is believed, have been in- spired by the muskmelon as was A. H. Craig. 76, postmaster here. He asserts that the whole fabric of his life and achievements was built up through inspiration furnished by the melon.
 Craig became identified with the melon industry after series of finan- cial misfortunes, commencing with the failure of bicycle factory in which as a young man he invested his savings. That failure compelled him to mortgage his home to pay his obligations.
 T wrote to New York publisher for a job and got one," he explained. Tt was to write book of 450 pages on the subject of debate. The result was 'Craig's Pros and Cons'-an out line of school debate. Asked to name the compensation for wvting this book. I gave the publisher the figure represented by the mortgage indebt- edness of my home"
 Paying off the homestead mortgage with a now widely used book left an empty pocketbook Casting about for substance and health took him into the outdoors and growing things and melon culture suggested itself.
 At that time the article was lux ury in the markets of the east. Craig decided to grow a melon that would stand above all others by intelligent and scientific production. He sent to France, Spain and Persia for seed. He first grew melons with some success but more in failure. He visited In- dianapolis and at a city produce mar ket there was attracted by specimen of provincial melon of the Hoosier state. He bought one for a dime, ate it, and saved the seeds. Later, he crossed 1t with one Of his own kind.
 The result was melons that ran 20 to 24 pounds in weight. Craig set out to reduce the size, for as market melon it was undesirable because of its weight. After years Of cNperi- menting, a superior product came into being. The first success of the new variety found birth at a banquet given in honor of former President Taft in Minneapolis, where the guests clamored for melons and then more melons.

Alaskans Plan to Engage
 In the Paper Industry

Washington, Nov. l4. --- Develop ment Of an important pulp and paper industry in southeastern Alaska is inevitable because of the water pow CT timber and transportation condi- tions there, in the opinion Of Sccre- tary Of Agriculture Wallace.
 "The rate of development Of the pulp and paper industry of the ter ritory," says Mir. Wallace, will be controlled by the economic factor of distance from present consumption centers, and by the necessity. inherent in the industry itself, for large capi- tal investments, rather than by physi- cal disadvantages. The physical con- ditions in southeastern Alaska presence Of cheaply developed power, hn enormous supply Of inexpensive wood, and tho availability Of water ransportation--are the very factors which make inevitable the expansion of pulp and paper manufacturing in the Territory"

NEW DYE WILL COLOR
 WOOD OF LIVE TREE
Possible to Color Trees Thirty
 Eight Different Shades

Philadelphia. Nov. t4.-By feeding dye to the living wood, according to S. Weinberg, a chemist ot this city, trees can be colored S2 different shades. including apple green, olive green, ebony, weathered oak, and sal mon pink.
 Experiments with dye, which Weinberg has discovered, are being conducted in the botanical gardens of the University of Pennsylvania with three trees which have been presented to him by the department of botany.
 Introducd into the base Of the tree, the dye is diffused throughout the branches by the natural functioning of the tree, Weinberg said. Evidence is furnished by the presence in the botanical gardens of a dark blue tree, a vivid green popular and salmon pink maple.
 Assisted by Dr. Herbert Rcenner, of Germany, Weinberg also has eN- perimented with a purple apple tree in Lansdowne. Pa.
 Wood. which has undergone the coloring process, is more durable than the ordinary wood used in the manu- facture of furniture, according to Weinberg. who mixes a preseryatiVe with the dye solution to be spread throughout the tree. The result, he said. is wood stained through and through, and not only on the surface, so that scratches and dents will not mar its presentability when made into furniture.
 The dyeinG operation is not a new one, but Weinberg declared that ef- forts heretofore have not been at tended with success, Weinberg's method is to conhnc the sap 10 the roots of tho troc by a series of bor- ings at it's butt, Above this the col bring is permitted 10 flow in, to bc drawn up to the very top of tho tree by pressure created. Weinberg said, when moisture e,aporates in the cells Of the tree. The dye is Of tho consistency of sap, is insolublc, and cannot be removed.
 Trees Of any degree Of hardness will respond to the treatment and tho tsllest of them win be thoroughly the experiments. The bright green poplar in the university botanical garden is SO feet tall. Cost Of the dye is nominal, less than dollar being required to change the hue Of the biggest tree in the east.
 Once the dye is injected. the tree is killed. SO that the lumber docs not have to be weathered so long as un- treated wood. Tt really is similar to embalming," Weinberg declared. "A certain clement kills the pests that rot the wood"
