SIDELIGHTS ON INAUGURATION

They had to put AN extra leaf
In the White House dining table
today. There was quite a family
party. Mr.. and Mrs. Coolidge,
Of course, drove a mile up Penn
syivania avenue to sign a. four
year lease on the old John Adams
) homestead on the Potomac.
Then there was Colonel John c.
Coolidge of Plymouth, VT, the
Presidents father; Mrs. Almira
Goodhue Of Northampton, Mass,
Mrs. Coolidge's mother John Cool
idge, the Presidents only son, Mr..
and Mrs. Frank Stearns of Bos-
ton and a few other intimate
friends.
This was a proud day for
Frank Stearns. the man who is
credited with discovering" Calvin
Coolidge and pushing him along
the hard road to political success
and national eminence. Reports
that the President was "off OF"
Stearns because he confirmed the
hobby horse" story were ap-
parently discredited by the Bos-
tonian's presence at the White
House today.
John w. Davis didn't stay in
town to see Coolidge inaugurated,
although he was here yesterday
to appear before the Supreme
Court. aren't you going to
stay, john" friend asked.
mo" said the ex-Democratic
candidate, IT wasn't invited"
Evidently William Jennings
Bryan thought that he was not
invited. For he had not shown
up at late hour and his favor
tie hotel said he had made no
reservation for the inaugural
period. A Republican inaugur-
alton is NORWOOD and then some
to w. J. B.
OF all the State Governors in
the Capital today-and there are
more than a score Of them-the
most popular and the most
sought after was Nellie Tayloe
Ross, of Wyoming, the first
woman State executive in the
United States. Mrs. Ross is a
guest of Senator and Mrs. John
b. Kendrick Of Wyoming.

. the crowd is nothing like that
record breaking throng which
gathered here a dozen years ago
for the first Inauguration of
Woodrow Wilson. 1t was esti-
mated at something over a hun
dred thousand.
Members of the national con-
ventions last summer and the
World Series last fall came to
millions of radio fans this morn
ing when Graham McNamee, an
nouncer extraordinary, called his
countrywide hook-up and launch
ed into a description of the in
auguration Of the Vice President
in the Senate Chamber. Radio
than 20,000.000 persons were able
to hear today's ceremonies.
COOLIDGE PARTNER HERE.
The Presidents former law part
ner was in Washington to wish
him we'll today and was a guest at
the White House. He is Ralph
Hemenway, o. Northampton. Mass.
who has been running the law
firm single-handed since Cal went
into politics. Miss Laura Skinner
of New York, an old friend of the
Coolidges, is a guest at the White
House also, as is Mrs. r. B. Hills.
of Northampton, a nelghbor or
Mrs. Goodhue, Mrs. Coolidge
mother.
Charles Evans Hughes led the
Cabinet through it's part in the In,
aueuraI ceremonies for the last
time today. At $50 a. m. tomor-
row he will turn the State Depart
ment over to Frank Fl. Kellogg,
late Of the Court of st. James, but
today a private citizen.
The Cabinet was one man Short
at that. Secretary of Agriculture
Gore is in West Virginia getting
sworn in as governor OF that
State. His successor, William
Jardine, of Kansas, will take his
oath of office tomorrow.
With Spanish sunburn on his
brow, Alexander Moore, of Pitts
burgh. United States ambassador
at Madrid, shivered 'on the in
augural stand. He says he's go.
ing back soon where it's warmer.
GILLETT IS SAD.
If you had been close to the
dais in the House Of Representa-
tives today you would have
seen a tear or two come into the
eyes Of Frederick Gillett when he
raped his gavel for the last time
and announced that the House
stood adjourned sine die. 1t mark
ed the end of thirty-fiVe years
service in the House for the Re.
publican Speaker. A few minutes
later Gillett became the Junior
United States Senator from Mas
sachusetts.
The gaVel that Vice President
Dawes used to call the new Senate
to order at 1901 o'clock today was
presented to him by the American
Legion Post of Marietta, Ohio-his
home town. 1t was made from
wood which formerly served In @
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1925-03-04

parade Many of them were
crowded to the limit. hours before
the ceremony started.
GIRLS CROWD BAESONY.
The balcony and windows Of
the historic Howard House in
Pennsylvania avenue adjoining
the Botanic gardens were given
over to more than 100 girls from
one of the local schools. Young
ladies overlooked onto the fire
escapes on one side of the build
ing. The street in front Of the
Howard House was greatly con-
gested and it was to be noticed
that the. women spectators were
crowded further down the street
as the young men rallied around.
One of the most elaborate re-
viewing stands along the Avenue
was erected on the site of a row
Of old buildings on the south side
of the street at John Marshall
place. The stand was especially
constructed for the purpose and
was inclosed with glass. Tiers
OF seats were pIdCCu 80 IIldL ItlS
several hundred occupants were
given an unobstructed view Of the
Avenue.
Here is the oath which PreSi-
dent Coolidge took at noon with
his right hand appraised and his
left hand resting on the Bible
which his grandmother gave him
n1anV wears ago:
~ do solemnly swear that I
will faithfully execute the office
of President of the United States,
and will, to the best Of my abil.
ity, preserve, protect and defend
the Constitution Of the United
States"
This is the day of days for
street cleaners.
Shortly after midnight, a. corps
OF white wings descended on
Pennsylvania avenue. At s a. m.
the historic highway was spick
and span.
Got to get the Avenue ready
for the big show" commented
one of the men. They depend
on us every four years to get
the Avenue fixed up for the
President"

piano stool which Dawes used as
a boy.
The Wisconsin inaugural dele
cation is here without it's gov
ernor, but it has one distinction,
nevertheless. 1t succeeded in get
ting General Dawes to make the
first speech he has delivered since
the campaign. The general met
the Wisconsin Republicans on the
street, shook hands all around,
and delivered an Grafton on the
duties of citizenship. The Wis
cOnsin delegation is headed by e.
II. Miles, mayor Of Fort Atkinson.
For the first time today in the
nations history an ex-President
administered the oath of office to
another President. Chief Justice
William Howard Taft is the first
ex-President to become a mem
Der of the Supreme Court. The
chief justice was in his usual
jovial mood today, especially
pleased that Coolidge had better
weather for his inauguration than
that accorded Taft sixteen years
ago. A blizzard ushered Taft into
office.
INDIANS IN PARADE.
Four Sioux Indians from the
Rosebud reservation in South
Dakota marched in the parade.
They were Standing Bear,
Spotted Tail, Whirlwind Soldier
and Hill Ahead. All wore their
native dress with feather head
pieces.
1t only took the President half
an hour to get through his in
auguTal address. He had prom
ised a short one, and it was.
Perhaps he took lead out Of
the book of William Henry IIar-
rison. whose inaugural address
occupied more than an hour in
delivery despite sleet storm
which drove most of the m
augural crowd to cover and a
warm fireside. William Henry
stuck it out, however; went back
to the Executive Mansion with a
fever. went promptly to bed and
died month later.
President Coolid6es first caller
today was Thomas w. White. Of
Newton. Mass, budget commits
sioner for his State. He is an
old friend Of the Presidents.
Dawes is the second citizen of
Illinois to become Vice Presi-
dent. The first was Adlai E.
Stevenson. who was Vice Presi-
dent in Cleveland's second ad-
ministration.
Army ambulances from Walter
Reed Hospital were held in readi-
ness at John Marshall place and
Pennsylvania avenue for any
emergency that might arise. The
Naval Hospital ambulance was
stationed at Seventh street and
the Avenue.
Balconies along PENNSYLVANIA
avenue, especially toward the
Capitol, were shored up with
heavy timber to bear the unusual
burdens OF the inaugural crowds
which used them as vantage
places from which to view the

TAXIS RUSHING.

Taxicabs did a rushing bust.
ness today. A fleet of cabs from
Baltimore. together with several
hundred persons who turned taxi
cab drivers last week, handled the
inaugural cabs. About 3,0OG
automobiles with "for hire" signs
operated throughout the city to-
day.
