PRESIDENT PUTS
HIS CARES ASIDE
AMID BLARE OF CIRCUS BAND
AND SMELL OF SAWDUST
HE TURNS BOY AGAIN.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-There's
something about a circus
1t got President Coolidge Tuesday,
took him completely, pulled him away
from his worries his difficulties with
congress, his cares OF office ana car
ried him out to the big tent, 10 tne
blare Of bands, the smell OF straw, the
laughing and chattering OF thousands
OF kiddies.
There's this about the Coolidges OF
Vermont-they like a circus. Other
wise they stick pretty closely to bus
mess, they go their ways quietly But
circus
President Coolidges grandfather
once rode 65 miles on a raw-boned
nag to see a circus. His father never
missed one if it was anywhere IN the
vicinity. Young Cal saw his FIRST one
at g.
Was Boy Again.
Johnny Ringing dropped into the
white house and told the. president
about his show. Boyhood dreams
came back. The president remembered
how he used to crawl out on a chilly
morning in the spring, way before
sun-up, and ride over the mountain
from his home to Rutland, where the
circus was playing.
SO he slipped away from the eNecu-
tive office Tuesday afternoon with
Mrs. Coolidge, and went out to the
circus.
Never did he go to a circus before
under such circumstances Outside the
huge tent the "show people were
lined up, the riding girls ID their tlgnts
astride their horses, the cowboys hold
ing in their risky mounts. All bow
ed as the president swept by. lie
smiled and bowed in return.
Got Circus" Welcome.
Inside the tent-it became an occa-
sion. The band struck up HAL to the
Chief" Cheers rolled from one end OF
the mammoth tent to the other Chi
dren waved. The president and his
wife. smiling, advanced toward the
center ring, escorted by Ringing
who met them. With bands, blaring
the whole tent a confusion OF color
and noise. they walked across to the
box before the center ring and TOOK
their seats. Photographers clicked
their cameras.
Coolidge took the circus very serl-
ouslv-he gave it his undivided atten-
ton, as if examining into this one al
ternoon all the circuses he has mls Sc!
in the trying, busy years OF his polllt1i-
cal career. Ringing, who was Deslde
him. hin gave up attempts at conversation u
af+er , few minutes, and sat solemnly
through the rest OF the show, Mrs
| Coolidge, who took an open, eager de-
Ioht in all that went on, spoke to the
nTes;dent but once or twice.

Law Enforcement Urged
In Charge to Grand Jury

every II holds an official position OF
some kind. There are in the United
States 100000 office holders, and
over eight billion dollars, or more
than II per cent of the total income
was taken from the people in taxes in
| 1922. 1T is conhscation OF property
by taxation he said, and asked, Ian
the people stand it," To add to the
seriousness of the situation as pointed
out by Judge Yeomans, 81 per cent
Of the farm land Of Georgia IS mort
gagged. The creation OF new offices and
appropriations to new schemes foster
led bv organizations and societies OF
various kinds also have contributed to
1.-The present undesirable conditions, he
said
Counties Badly in Debt.
Judge Yeomans said that while tax
es are high in all counties conditions
in Terrell are better, comparative
" speaking, than in many Others.
Still, he believed taxes here should be
reduced. He said he knew of one
county where warrants that were is
sued on the treasury five years ago
are still unpaid Taxes,-are necessary,
he said, and our institutions should
be literally supported, but those
whose duty it is to levy taxes should
do so with due regard for the citizen
who has them to pay
Judge Yeomans called the attention
to the grand jurors to the oath they
had taken, especially that they would
keep their deliberations secret He SAID
he had often been astonished that the
public was informed as to what was
transpiring in the grand jury room,
and knew how the members voted on
matters that came before them,
He called attention to the fact that
the grand jury had the power to rec
ommend the Australian ballot system
for the county and that the recon-
mendation of two successive grand
iuries would put the law into effect
Referring to the small amount of
business before the superior court
Judge Yeomans gave credit to the
city court. which he said is presided
over by one of the ablest judges in the
state The court, he declared, saves
the county much money
Seven Divorce Gases.
Upon completion Of the charge the
civil docket was taken up, and by
noon I divorce cases had been dispos-

found marriage failure were white.
The afternoon was devoted to the
trial of civil cases, and the docket was
practically disposed of by night, when
the court took a recess until Wednes-
day morning, when the criminal dock
ct will be taken up.
There is very little criminal bust
ness before the grand jury, and the
session OF court is expected to be
