HUNTS DAILY

By HARRY 3. HUNT

WASHINGION.- President Coolidge
reassorted his claim to the title Of
Cautious Cal" while on a recent
weekend party with Roy West, secre-
ta,y of the republican national commit
tee, and Senator CapFcr.
The party was scheduled for a cruise
down the broad bosom Of the Potomac
with perhaps 2 touch of salt waters in
the wider reaches Of Hampton Roads
or the lcwcr Chesapeake Bay.
But by the time the Mayfiowcr had
cast loose from her moorings at tins
Washington navy yard, a stiff nor
wester was sweeping down across the
hills CT Arlington. kicking up rirplcs
that occasionally broke into whitecaps
at least two feet tall.
The wind shricked through the rig
ging and banged at the p1r,-hol with
out the least indication that it knew
it was the~private yacht OF The pres
ident of the United States.
So. after proceeding cautiously down
the channel for a brief cruise, the
Good Ship Mayflower cropped anchor
for the night opposite the War College
almost two whole miles from her
starting pointl
Royal Copeland, senator from New
York, doesn't propose that his home
state shall be given a back seat.
Copeland discovered the her day
that the statue o. George Clinton, New
York's favorite sen, in Statuary Hall,
had been placed i'll a remote and OBJ
scure cCrner where it was seen BY few
visitors. lie at once began pulling
strings. And today the Clinton statue
stands out in the front rank of the
great whose greatness is preserved in
the national Chamber Of Horrors"
For tha guidance OF these who, I'M
like Copeland, are not conversant with
Clintcn's greatness, it may be proper
here to say that he was q member III
the Continental Congress. a general in
the R. evolutionary army, the first gov
crnor Of New York and twice vice pres
ident.
With the sole exception If John Cal

Woodbridge n. Ferris. the school
teacher Of the senate" being the onla
member of the upper house with the
degree of Master of Pedagogy,
doesn't, in spite Of that fact, believe
too much emphasis should be put On
"intellect."
undue emphasis has been placed
upon the intellectual side of mans
training" Ferris says. eve have ut
terly failed to conserve human nature
in our attempts TO emphasize intellect.
We should give more heed to develop
ing the instructive. impulsive. emotion
