Welcomed by Col.
Coolidge with Smile

Plymouth, VT, Mar. Is. (AP)-Col-
onel John c. Coolidge, critically i'll
at his home here. had a welcome WIS.,
itor today. To the sick room where
the presidents so year old father is
making valiant fight for life few
are admitted but the door was
thrown open for Rev. John White of
Sherburne, the coldhefs pastor.
The sick man smiled as the clergy
man entered and greeted him with
handshake. He joined feeb1y In
the devotional exercises conducted at
the bedside, and appeared much
pleased at the visit. 1t was by no
means the first since the presidents
father became ill last June.
While not communicate of the
Episcopal Church of which Mr..
White is a minister, Colonel Cool
idge has been a regular attendant
at services in the Union Meeting
House here. The meeting house was
built by the folk of Plymouth and is
open to clergymen of all denomina-
tions. The colonel was a prime
mover in having 1t built and it be-
longs to the community.
Six years ago when Mr.. White
took up his cure in Sherburne and
Plymouth he asked Colonel Coolidge
who run the little church.
81 guess you do now, the colonel
answered. And ever since the min
lister has conducted Sunday after
noon services here when the season
permits. Colonel Coolidge was al
ways in the congregation until his
health failed, and when the presi-
dent and Mrs. Coolidge visited the
scene of Calvin Coolidge's boyhood
they followed the Episcopal service
in the Union Meeting House. Hun
dreds of tourists attracted to Ply
mouth as the birthplace of the pres
ident also have heard Mr.. Whites
messages from the pulpit.
Both in Sherburne and Plymouth
the clergyman is held in high es-
TEEN. Although not New England
err he has made a place for himself,
in these Green Mountain valleys.
The Vermont folk know that he re-
signed as dean of the cathedral Of
Indianapolis to become a country
rector in New England, solely be-
cause he believed the rural work to
be vitality necessary. He was born
in Wisconsin and attended school in
Minneapolis where at one time he

BIG AMERICANS WANTED.

There was nothing about him
of the small American" said
President Coolidge, of George
Washington, thus coming new
phrase which provides a stand
ard by which we may measure
public, men and policies. Cool
idge paid this tribute to the
breadth of Washington's mind:
No man clung more tenacious.
~ to what be believed was right,
or was prepared to make greater
sacrifices in it's support. But be
viewed the right as a universal
principle to be applied not only
to himself. but to others, not
only to his own state. but to the
nation. not only to his own coun.
trymen, but to foreigners"
He set straight and narrow
standard for our statesmen who
feel inclined to exploit national
or international problems for
their personal aggrandizement,
and thus brand themselves as
small Americans"
Too many of US seek laws for
the special privilege and enrich
ment of our own states or Sec
tions of the country, lacking
capacity to see that the great.
ness of our country arises from
the common interest of all it's
people.
Washington stands as the
greatest American, because he
renounced the glory of q kingly
crown to build a free republic on
principles so sound and broad
that we can stand before the
world as an example for other
nations, and help the world es.
tablish higher ideals for all hu.
manity whenever there is oppor.

FARM REQUIREMENTS IN
ARIZONA.

Arizona offers any and all of
the attractions that appeal to
men who seek financial success
in agriculture. The retired
business man can buy a citrus
grove and figure on making
money while be amuses himself,
The pioneer can put in a pump
and create his own oasis in the
desert. The Middle Western
farmer can grow the crops be is
used to at home. keep cows and
chickens and let Them pay his
board. The men who want
something new will find winter
vegetables interesting and pro.
fitable. The requirements are
the same as where, cour
age, common sense, applied
knowledge and experience, hard
work and enough capital for a
start. The only difference is
that the hazards are reduced; !;
there is no gambling with the
weather and the potential re.
rawardS are greater.
The future of Arizona's agri
culture Is set by the natural con
ditions nature has bestowed.
Specialized, intensive farming
will increase esteadily, with
gre ater attention to the truck
crop that can be grown when
other sections are Lot producing.
Alfalfa and its attendant dairy.
ing will alway be staple crop;
cotton growing will become more
especialized, with only one
variety in one section. for ex.
perience has shown this a valu-
able factor increasing yields and
raising premiums for grade and
staple. Decidous fruits and sum
mer vegetables will be grown
more extensively in the north;
citrus fruits and winter veget.
ables, more extensively in the
south.
Arizona agriculture means
much to Southern California;
almost as much as its own.
Agriculture will be the base for
Arizona's future increase in
population, whose buying power
means much TO Los Angeles;
Arizona agriculture will furnish
food for Los Angeles future in
dustrial population and products
for it's factories. That Arizona
agriculture is here to stay goes
without saying, and its assured
rapid development will be fac
tor of the growth of the South
west.-Los Angeles Times.
