In 1908 He Married School
Teacher Who Has Since
Been His Guiding Star.

NORTHAMPTON Mass, Nov.
20.-Burnings of the love fire in
the bosom of calm, CAUTIOUS C Twin
Coolidge may be hard to imagine.
Yet Eros pricked the 9eart of TIE
solemn man who presides in Wash
ington--once.
The girl is still his sweetheart to-
day.
Back in 1908, when G. olidge was
young lawyer here, and Grace
Goodhue teacher in the Clark
School for the Deaf and Blind, tney
met.
Coolidge had spied the girl as be
looked out of his window. A mutual
friend introduced them.
Northampton was a small place,
and news spread fast.
Cal was a-courting
But he was not fervid lover.
He took Miss Goodhue on walks and
he made punctilious calls upon her.

d Bat One Girl She Is Still His Sweetheart

He took her to none of the dances,
for)the young man was too bashful
to dance.
Lucey Advises Him
One day Coolidge dropped into
the shop of James Luceg for a chat.
Lucey was-and still is the village
shoemaker and philosopher.
"Look here, young man." Lueey
said to Coolidge, pretending to be
very cross. you aren't getting
anywheres!
"You want to walk closer to
Grace. Don't go up the street as if
you didn't know her, for some or
these other young men around TOWN
will come and walk between you.
"When you walk home with her
tonight, walk very close, And when
you get in her parlor, SIT very close
to her on the lounge.
First look at her shoes. Tell
her what pretty feet she has. Then
look at her skirt. Tell her what a
pretty dress she has on.
"Then look into her eyes. Tell
her what wonderful eyes she has,
and how yop know she's going to
make some young man wonderful
wife, and how you hope to be that
man."
Whether Coolidge followed this
advice or not will never be known.
But a short time later their engage
ment was announced.
Cal Kept Silent
But Coolidge knew little of the
deIcacies of dealings WITH the fan
sex. He did not know that it was
his place to ask her to name the
wedding day.
The school term clo3ed. Mis-.
Goodhue went to her home in Yer
mont greatly puzzled She did no
know whether she should stay Their,
and work on her trousseau, 0
whether she should make arrange
nents to return to the school Tn

STATE BUTTER COOP
GETS LONDON ORDERS
,By Farm Bureau News servIee.)

tBy Farm Bureau News ServIee.)
Three chain store concerns, one
operating 258 stores in Washing
ton, ID. c.; one operating 500
stores in Cincinnati, St. Louis
and other cities; and the third
operating a number of stores in
Cleveland, Ohio, are negotiating
with the Minnesota Cooperative
Creameries Association, with a
view to signing contracts cover
ing the purchase of from one to
three cars of butter a week.
The Association also has an or
der for 500 tubs of sweet cream
butter from a London concern.
1t is expected that this order
will eventually develop a more or
less extensive foreign trade in
Minnesota butter.
The London market is higher
than the New York market which
would mean a decided profit on
butter exported to that city. The
fact that in the past only a low
scoring butter has been sent to
the London market from the Uni
ted States, will necessitate the
re-establishment of the conf
dence of the London trade in
American-made butter. IF this
can be done, our Land O'Lakes
brand will do it." said Mr.. H. F.
Meyer, manager of the butter

Henry Morgan, one of the most ia
nous of buccaneers, when young
boy was kidnapped In the streets of
Bristol-it is claimed that he came of
good English family--and was sold
as an indentured servant to some col
onists In Barbados. When his time
had expired he made his way to ia
maica and soon fell In with the buc-
cancers who Infested that island. Be
fore very long he became the captain
of ship.
AT first he seems to have had but
moderate fortune. He took part In
several raids, but did not rise to prom
inence until he Joined forces with
Mansfield--the first of the buccaneers
who succeeded in rallying enough pi-
rates under one command to make
himself formidable to fortified coast
towns. Morgan became his principal
lieutenant and when his chief died he
became the acknowledged leader of
the buccaneers.
In June, 1868. when he was thirty
three years old, Morgan collected a

Prehistoric Canals Found
in Meade County, Kansas

Digging away with gouges and pad
dies, probably made of buffalo bones,
prehistoric men. who lived in Meade
and Clark counties, Kansas. sklllfully
constructed great artificial embank-
ments which diverted the waters OF
Four Mile creek through an ancient
canal.
That's the conclusion of field party
that spent several days In the late
spring of 1920 examining one OF the
ancient channels. The builders of
these ancient artificial waterways evi-
IDENTIFY possessed engineering skill of
no mean order, as some of their cuts,
fills and meanders on sloplng ground
abundantly prove.
When running along the face of a
declivity at right angles to the slope
they Invariably piled the excavated
dirt on the lower side. The earth
doubtless was transported by means
Of wicker baskets or In sacks made of
rawhide. The ruins antedate the COM
ing of the Spaninrds by hundreds OF
years, possibly thousand or more.
Those canal builders probably lived
in low, one-st0ry peublos. Moundlike
ruins still are visible in Beaver coun-
ty, Oklahoma, just across the state
line, and in the vicinity OF the canals
