selling them outright to anybody

has otherwise been very alert in

activities has not sent out any
letter on this latest move-at
least the American has not re-
ceived any. but if they decide to
release their members one season

be no bringing them back an

pleasant and profitable affair.
There was good singing by the

ton is a live one and is working
for mutual understanding and CO.

port showed S4S in the treasury

E. r. McPheeters. local fire
patrolman of District No. 2, who
makes his headquarters in Askov,
says that it seems number of
people do not yet know that it
is necessary to get a permit be-
fore burning stump piles, slash
ings, brush, rubbish and the like
and it has therefore been neces-
sary for him to make a few ar
rests.
Just now when everything is
very dry extra precautions are
taken against forest fires. Farm
ers who desire to get permits for
burning can get them from some
one i'm their own township,
usually the town chairman, who
is designated the local fire war

pressed with visable evidence
that their representatives are on
a social and political footing.
More than one Legislator owes
his place to the gullibility Of the
average voter who is content
with seemingly undisputable
proof Of being close TO

The change has benefited the

weight. seems more buoyant and
is slightly tanned. The sea
breezes have contributed greatly.
Mr.. Coolidge is a delightful
host and does his best to make
one feel that he is visiting a
home along the seashore and not
an official residence. In keeping
with the simple tastes of the
distinguished occupants there is
a noteworthy absence of frills,
which mark the summer homes
of the social climbers, and near
great.
The President delights to read,
and occasionally saunters about
the spacious grounds. Never
having acquired hankering for
popular sports in his busy youth,
Mr.. Coolidge finds little interest
in these diversions now when his
slightest wish could be realized.
Mrs. Coolidge, however. fire.

Swampscott, Mass, August
19.-In visiting the summer CAPT
tai here, it is natural that OBJ
servers first make a contrast be-
tween Swampscott and Washing
ton. The scene at the White
Court differs but little from the
life at the Executive Mansion.
The scenic investiture, particu-
larly the ocean vista, is the only
reminder that the President is
mentioning.
Though the number of visitors
is necessarily restricted, there is
a certain hustle and hustle which
emphasizes the fact that the
Nation cannot be without an
Executive. The atmosphere of
officialdom may be missing from
men in other walks Of life but
this restful informality is denied
the President.
Washington is exceedingly dull
during the August dog days"
There is no appreciable reduction
in the volume of official mail.
While Rudolph Forester, efficient
and quiet executive clerk at
tempts to separate the wheat
from the chaff at Washington, a
large portion of the CORE
spondence is forwarded to Lynn,
where the executive offices have
been temporarily installed. Sec
retaries and couriers motor to
and from White Court. The
wheels of Government never
halt. Problems of magnitude are
always cropping up.
The exigencies Of politics bring
numerous notables to the sum-
mer capital. Members of the
Senate and House. having sharp
contests in their own states, feel
it desirable to talk things over
with President Coolidge.
Notwithstanding the fact that
the President rarely comments
on situations outlined by legisla.
tors and political leaders, it does
not prevent the latter from Civ
ing their views. Perhaps the
mere act of barring their ambi
tions to a quiet understanding
man is in itself a form of mental
relief.
Whenever possible Legislators
have photographs taken with Mr.
Coolidge, the theory being that
their constituents will be inn

Many experienced automobile
