endeared himself to many connected
with the presidential household, in
cluding Mrs. Coolidge, who always
was fond of the dear rascal" as she
affectionately referred to him, and ii
was only after much reluctance that
she agreed with the President In his
decision while at White Court to
Danish him. Paul never was very
popular with the President. 1t is
not known If he at any time ever
gave the Chief Magistrate too af-
fectionate greeting in the neighbor-
hood of the Presidents ankle, but,
whether or no, the President has
always made it very evident that
Ro; Roy. the White House collie,
was his one and only favorite.
Known as "Bonehead."
Besides being what the President de-
scribed as a bad dog" Paul was
known as a "bonehead." 1t was be-
cause of the latter that the marines
admitted they could do so little in max
ing something out of him. He didn't
have sense enough to chew his food,
and. consequently, was always getting
sick, they said. Besides this he would
eat anything. Just to keep his teeth in
practice he would eat wood, and once
he swallowed Il huge meat bone and
nearly strangled to death.
Despite the proud blood in his veins
and his prominence as a White House
dog, he would pick up with any mutt
dog that came along-something his
teammate, Rob Roy, would never think
of doing.
OF course. the President and Mrs.
Coolidge will see Paul once in a while
when they go aboard the Mayflower
on their week end trips. but no more
is his shadow to darken the doors of
the White House. That's final: the
President has decreed it.

Special Election Not to Be
Held if Senate Does Not
Seat Him.

Gov. Sorlie of North Dakota has as
sured Senator Frazier of that State
that he will appoint a successor to the
late Senator Edwin F. Ladd before
Congress meets in December.
Senator Frazier said today that
there still was a difference of opinion
in his State as to whether the gov

appointment, and that II the Senate
should refuse to seat an appointee,
successor to Senator Ladd would be
chosen at the regular elections next
June.
Holding that he has ample author
ity under the law to make an appoint
ment, Gov. Sorlie explained, Senator
Frazier said, that he did not desire to
call special election on account of
the expense to the State that would
be involved.
Several of the Republican leaders
in the Senate after a study of the
North Dakota law have expressed the
opinion that a special election is neces-
sary and that the appointee of the
governor would be excluded.

School Board to Take Up
Question of Enforcement of
Rule at Meeting.

The high school fraternity contro-
versy, which has hovered tenaciously
before Supt. Frank w. Ballou and
the Board of Education throughout
the Summer recess, will be given an
other airing when the board meets
tomorrow afternoon at the Franklin
School.
While the board plans to devote
ma Ior portion of its session to the
business of completing the organiza-
ton of the schools for the new term
which begins Monday. the fraternity
question has an important place on
the calendar.
DIR. Ballou held a conference today
with the principals of the high schools
over the fraternity nightmare, and
drew from them their ideas as to how
the rule barring the secret organiza-
tions should be enforced during the
coming school year. The result of
the conclave will be presented to the
board tomorrow.
School authorities would not so
much as hazard a guess as to what
action the board may take on the fra
ternity matter. 1t Is certain, how
ever, that a more thorough check will
be kept on the fraternal affiliations of
the students during the new term

PAUL PRY BANISHED FOREVER
FROM PLACE AT WHITE HOUSE
Three Months With Ma
rines Fail to Improve
Him.
Has the Reputation of Be-
ing a Bad Dog and
BOnehead.

1t looks as though President and
Mrs. Coolidge are through with Paul
Pry, their Airedale, and that the lat
ters days as White House pet are
over for all time.
1t was learned today that this leg
chewing. but otherwise friendly, dog
Is to remain in permanent exile. He
has been given to the Mayflower for
keeps, and from now on will be the
official pet OF the officers and crew OF
that famous vessel. When Paul was
first banished from the exalted posi-
ton he held as a member of the
Presidents household, while the sum
mer White House was located at
Swampscott, he was sent to the ma
rine camp, not far distant from White
Court, to see what could be made of
him. The President had caused his
baniShment because too many com
plants had been received about his
playful habits of sinking his teeth in
human flesh-generally in the vicinity
Of ankles and the more f1eshy part of
the calf Of the leg.
Sent to the Devil Dogs"
Publicly branding him as a bad
dog" President Coolidge sent him to
the marines, hoping they could put
raul lnTOuSn course OIL training
and discipline that would make him
a good dog. But Paul was found to
be hopeless. The marines did sue
ceed in reducing somewhat Pauls
fondness for sharpening his fangs
on peoples legs, and he cut out con-
sidera BILE of his former habit of bark
ing loud at moving objects, principal
~ automobiles, but, taking him all
in all, he failed after his nearly three
months of Devil Dog" training, to
show any of the real qualities of
first-rate. high-toned, dignified White
House attache. Thus President Cool

nent exile.
