THE OPEN DOOR.

BUCHANAN, VA, March Dear
Editor,-Please give us space in your
paper. The Richmond Planet to pub
lish this communication as follows:
This is tol certify that the First
Baptist Church, of Buchanan, Va.
held its business meeting February
27, 1925 to investigate the cause of
closing the church door against the
pastor and congregation. In the
investigation we found no cause
aga; INST the Pastor to- justify the ac-
ton of the trustee board and the
deacon board to close the church.
Therefore, the trustee board and the
deacons acknowledged their error
ar, asked pardon and the church
forgave them.
And so 1'on's door is open for
service according to her former
schedule.

The spacious Cohnson's Auditorium
ballroom was again a scene of rare
beauty Wednesday night, when the
members of the local chapter of the
Phi Beta sigma Of Virginia Union
University gave one of the most bril-
liant social functions of the season.
Each year society looks forward to
the wonderful balls given by the Phi
Betas and each year the ball is voted
more wonderful than it's predecessor,
but the mid winter soiree will always
be "the Prom to be remembered"
The decorations were carried out
in blue and white effect and the la.
dies Were gowned in some of the
most exquisite costumes. The young
men affected the now famous collie
giate style. Abe ladies and gentle
men were creations of loveliness and
grace combined.
Many local celebrities were in at

WASHINGTON. March Calvin
Coolidge was sworn into Office as
President of the United States today.
In keeping with the Coolidge
preachment of economy in all the
affairs of government, the ceremony
lacked the ostentation and display
which have marked past inaugurals.
Coolidge tooke the oath at O'Clock
on a stand erected at the east portal
of the Capitol. Chief Justice Taft,
officiating.
Preceding him by haiti an hour.
Charles g. Dawes took the oath as
Vice President In the Senate chamber
and became that body's presiding
officer.
Near the President was Mrs. Cool.
idge, his father and SON. and other
relatives. while banked on either side
OF the platform were members OF his
Cabinet, members OF the Senate and
House and other dignitar1es.
Before him was seated a vast
throng which spread out far across
the Capitol plaza. In the forefront
of the crowd were members OF the
diplomatic corps and many distih-
guished guests OF honor.
Except for the grouping OF Amer
lean flags around the platform the
sole touch OF brilliance was given to
the scene by the gaylycaparisoned
uniforms of the Marine Band.
Coolidge followed his taking OF
the oath with his inaugural address,
which lasted just about forty fve
minutes. It's theme was economy,
and in it's preparation the President
wasted not one word nor used one
unnecessary syllable. 1t was a cool,
calculated, dispassionate review of
the Administrations program for
continued economy, and reduction Of
taxation, with few glittering prom
ises for continued efforts by the ad-
ministration to bring to the world
an era of peace

TO KEEP DOWN MOTOR
CAR EXPENSE
By ERWIN GREER

When my friend opens his garage
door every morning he always greets
his car with: well, how are you
this morning, old boy?" Some
how the spirit Of that man gets into
his car, for he seems never to have
any mechanical trouble. Car kind
ness means car service. Car service
means money in the bank that would
otherwise be spent on repairs.
| have merely stolen my friends
method of working. and it amounts
to just this-the fellow who antici-
pates trouble is better off than the
fellow who simply remedies that
trouble after it occurs. And follow
ing is the reason why my car is al
ways ready to go on a cross-conti-
mental trip any day in the year.
To keep down expenses is the first
item. | inspect the ignition system
weekly, with special attention to the
distributor, making positive all con-
nections are tight. Every month |
clean and set the spark plugs, check
ing up on the battery every two
weeks, filling it with distilled water
when necessary, tightening the bat
terry supports and all connections,
inspecting battery wires to the
starter and to the frame ground and
noting if the commutator on the
starting motor is clean and not cut
ting. On the lighting system, check
ing up all connections once a month,
making sure that the "cutout" works
properly and does not stick.
fabrication is, believe, the most
important Of all items to keep down
car expense. My grease gun is used
exactly once a week, together with
a few drops of oil here and there
where needed especially around the
spring leaves. Every five hundred
miles | change the crankcase oil,

THIS is A WEEK crowded with
important events Calvin Coolidge
is sworn in for a full four-year term
in the White House, Secretary Of
State Hughes retires TO private life
to be succeeded at the State Depart
ment by Frank B. Kellogg, late Am
bassador Of the United States at the
Court Of St. James Secretary of
Agriculture Gore retires to his
native West Virginia to become
Governor Of that Commonwealth,
turning over the affairs of his De-
partment to William A. Jardine,
President Of the Kansas Agriculture
College. The 68th Congress passes
into history, and part Of the seth
Congress-the Senate-comes into
being.
THERE WILL BE little in this
years Inauguration to remind I'D
timers of those gay times when arm
ed forces from the various States
descended on the Capital to take part
in the ceremony of Inducing a new
President into office, spending the
days both before and after Inaugural
ton Day in marching hither and yon
through the streets and avenues of
the city, showing off their gorgeous
uniforms and enlivening the occasion
generally. Hotel bookings Indicate,
however, that the inaugural crowd
from every part Of the country will
be bigger than ever before, and there
will be an inaugural parade and an
inaugural ball of considerable dis
tinction despite the efforts Of the
Administration to make the whole
affair as quiet and transformations as
possible
NOTHING SENSATIONAL is ex-
peeted in the Presidents inaugural
address, which will consist of only
about four thousand words and which
will be concerned chiefly with sum-
ming up the achievements of the
Harding Coolidge regime, celebrating
on the State of the Union" and re-
stating the Administrations foreign
policies. Plans for broadcasting
the Presidential Oath and the address
have been made and it is estimated
by those in charge that approximate
ly twenty million persons will have
the opportunity of participating, via
the radio, in the ceremony on the
East Portico Of the Capitol.

Common Sense Facts.

A merchant doesn't spend his mo-
neg for advertising merely to see his
name in print.
He is too much of a business man
to part with his dollars unless there
is a good prospect of obtaining
LEGITIMATE return upon his invest
ment.
He doesn't advertise goods that he
can't recommend, because he knows
that YOU can't fool all of the people
all of the time, and that such a pol
icy would eventually put him out of
business.
He doesn't gouge his customers,
because he knows that they would
soon 90 elsewhere and buy for less
money, and that would be the end of
him
1t is reasonable to presume, then,
that when he does advertise an arti-
Gle, that article is worth having and
the price is within reason.
When you buy from local mer-
chant, that merchants reputation
for square dealing is behind the

London in excellent spirits and the
best of health, ready to assume his
new duties as Secretary Of State.
Kellogg had a good word even for
the English climate wher he was
interviewed upon his arrival, explain
ing ahat it had agreed with him
admirably, and that, as far as that
was concerned, he could thrive in any
climate, especially that in Washing
ton, where he served for many
years as a member Of the Senate.
Secretary Hughes will go to Bermuda
within a few days for a lengthy
vacation and viii then take up his
residence on Fifth Avenue in New
York City.
IN SOME QUARTERS there is
belief that the new Senate which
cOnvenes at noon on March 4 to con-
firm presidential nominations and
transact other executive business,
may remain in session for several
weeks. There is precedent for
this, as the Senate battled over the
League of Nations during the Wilson
Administration although the House
was NOT in session at the time. The
probability Of long session Of
Senate this spring is based upon the
fact that President Coolidge will call
for approval of the nomination of
Frank Beecher Warren as Attorney
General. The nomination is now
deadlocked because of the opposition
to Warren on the part of some
Democratic Senators and Senator
Borah of Idaho. When the Warren
nomination is called up, protracted
fight may be precipitated, in addition
to tussles over various treaties, NOT
to forget tag-end League of Nations
scrap in the long-pending proposal
for American entrance into the
World Court at The Hague.
