 When news reached Calvin, Jr., that his father had suddenly been elevated to the presidency the lad called the new President over the telephone and con. graduated him, expressing surprise and grief over the news of President Hard ing's death.

You see, he had per. fectly good job working on a farm at three dollars and half day and he saw no reason whatsoever why he should give it up to go and idle away the days at the White House until school opened just because his father was President. Now the Coolidge boys are just like that. They are real boys they are extremely practical and quite self-reliant. They do quite a bit of thinking for themselves.
