CLEVELAND. Ohio, June H.
The Republican national commit
teemen had good cause today to
gnash their teeth for, at their
convention, what do several hun
bred persons do but stand in line
to shake hands with Colonel Will
liam Jennings Bryan. The Com
moner was in the press section
doing q bit Of writing for some
one or other when a demand for
him to come to the rail and shake
crowds. While Republican digni.
taries stood with their hands In
their pockets Bryan's hand was
being wrung by q stream of ad-
mirers.
Congressman Theodore T.. Bur.
ton, the temporary convention
chairman. meant 1t to be a
whisper, but 1t was heard on the
Pacific and Atlantic coasts, and
on both borders. A sergeant:at-
arms came to the speakers ros-
trum and asked q question. Bur-
ton stopped down and in q huShed
voice asked "What?" but I he
spoke right into the radlomicro-
phone and the "What?" doomed
all over the hall and out into
the ether.

The reason Is all 50 simple. This
Is not a convention where one
sleeps nights. Instead, there are
places to so and people to see and
things to do.
Any one who calls at noon upon
a delegate who has been up until
5 in the morning trying with others
to agree on a Vice Presidential
nominee acceptable to the farmers,
the cigar store clerks and the
crossing watchmen Of the country
and expects to find the delegate
spic and span in morning coat
with daffodil in his hair IL simply
silly.
Last Monday a delegate would
not think of answering a knock on
his hotel room door unless he first
slipped on a bathrobe, but by to-
day those with good manners were
doing we'll IL they received callers
In a conservative bath fowl with
bit OF fringe here and there for
vogue's sake.
Not Made BY Clothes.
1t begins to look as IL the next
President and Vice President is
going to be nominated by a mixture
OF bathing beauties who get no
chance to battle and sleeping beau
ties who get little opportunity for
sleep. No one will be able to point
to Calvin Coolidge and say:
Clothes made that man."
The writer called just after break.
Last today upon a delegate who
back in Iowa keeps track Of what
clothes he threw away last year
as out Of date by glancing at the
half tones in the fashion mazagines
as fast as they were mailed to him.

voice in response to a knock.

the delegate explained. And then
added: Him. Guess I'll get dressed

He got to his knees and crawled
