1t devolves upon me the signal hon
OF Of responding in the name Of this

SO genially and felicitously given by
His Excellency Lieut. GOV. Alvin 7.
Fuller To me it is a source Of JOY,
and | feel it special privilege TO be
made your mouthpiece on this oCca-
sion here in Boston, our historic,
aristocratic, yet in point of thought
and wisdom. democratic city OF states
men and great men, whose names
| stand out in bold relief upon the pages

and have spoken fearlessly Tor just

Since there could be no solid basis to
country which sanctioned a double
standard Of rights for humanity, or
openly legalized traffic in the lives
and souls happiness Of human beings
1t fills me too with pride and pleas
ure to respond to the welcome given
by an official of the state which so
recently released from its governor
ship to give to the nation as vice
president and subsequently as Presi-
dent, the strong, masterful and capa-
bic Calvin Coolidge.
If l may be permitted to pause
here and make passing unpolitical
statement concerning the President,
should like to say that never before in
the history OF this nation has a
stronger, more self-possessed, calm
and level-headed mortal graced the
Presidential chair. Anyone possess
ing the most cursory knowledge of
character, or of physiognomy, can by
glance at his face see the strength,
grit, and yet the broad sympathies of
his nature
In the domestic life Of the Presi-
dent, but three weeks ago, his pa
ternal feeling was stirred to its depth
And yet, on the morning Of July 4th
independence Day, after a consulta-
ton with medical experts caused him
to know that he would within a few
hours, perhaps, look for the last time
upon the face Of the son who bore his
name as junior, he placed the duties
Of his office and the nation above his
personal feeling and beyond his suf-
fering and grief, and would allow not
even an inkling Of the agitation which
racked his family to be made public
He filled his engagement to speak be-
fore the National Education Associa-
ton with no one outside OF the execu-
tive mansion even suspecting that
anything out of the ordinary had
transpired in the Presidents life. One
could almost imagine hearing the surg
ing OF his soul saying to him at that
time: LET no word of this threaten
ing sadness reach the ears Of the pub
lie, so that no special sympathy for
yourself and family may detract them
from honoring the memory Of the pa
triots who signed the Declaration OF
Independence. or from giving thanks
to Almighty God that their act re-
NAMED irrevocable, thus enabling this
nation on that day to celebrate its
l48th anniversary"
There. my friends, was a demonstra-
ton Of strength, acumen and marvel
Gus self-control. One might be for
given if he emotionally says There
IS President, whence cometh such
another"
These remarks were a depression, as
