COOLIDGE DIES
(Continued from Page One)

who did, Colonel Coolidge had the distinction of being the only one to administer the oath of the presiden- tial office to his son. It was this more than the mere fact he had be- come the father of the president that caused the attention of the nation to be directed to him.
 1t was only few weeks before that the son, then vice president, with his family had returned to the paternal homestead for a vacation In the midst of this family reunion and holiday came the death of President Harding It was near mid night when the news reached the Coolidge home in the little mount ain village of Plymouth, remote from the railroad, and immediately plans were made for swearing in the new president.
 The ceremony was delayed only long enough to receive from Wash ington the official form of the pres ident oath and when it arrived in the early morning hours, the stage was all set for one of the most solemn and dramatic inductions of a pres ident in the history of the country
 Administers Great Oath
 Colonel Coolidge was thrust into the picture much in the manner of an understudy suddenly called upon to play the leading role in a drama. The vice president had decided that his father, by virtue of his office of notary public of Plymouth, was qualified to administer the oath, which was done in the living room of the Coolidge home by the light of a small kerosene lamp of the type commonly used in farmhouse kit chens.
 The ceremony thus performed amid surroundings that were more like the early years of the country rather than of the twentieth century, was in conformity to the simple traditions that have marked the lives of the Coolidges of Vermont for many years.
 On Governors Staff
 Colonel Coolidge-he obtained his rank from service on the staff of Governor Stickney, of Vermont-al- ways lived in Plymouth, where he was born March 31, 1845. The fact that his son became president did not change his mode of living with the exception that he was obliged to
Seward daily gateway., 1926-03-19

| six terms as representative and one tative in the session. He served he was tax collector for. 3S years, a deputy sheriff for more than forty years and school director for a long period. He also served as moderator istant postmaster for 49 years. In | the last named position it was said in the village that he was the only person there who was sufficiently familiar with the forms of the post office department to make out cor rectly the detailed reports required His services also were in demand in the settlements of estates.
 Jack of All Trades IA visitor to Plymouth once re- marked that the colonel appeared "to have been everything in this town except an undertaken" To this he replied that as youth work ing in the wheelwright's shop he assisted in making collins. And we thought he added, that it was, a cheat to use anything but hardwood for collins in those days
 Married Second Time
 Colonel Coolidge, in 1868, married Victoria Moor. They lived in a tenement in the rear of the store, where President Coolidge was born, until 1878, when upon the death of his father, the colonel moved into the latter's home, the present Cool idge homestead. Mrs. Coolidge died when Calvin was 12 years old. The colonel's second wife was Carrie A. Brown, who died in 1920.
 Speaking of the affection between his second wife and his son, Col onel Coolidge once said:
 Calvin was never so busy but that he wrote to his stepmother every week and sometimes oftener And she could see more in him than could. She took more stock in his someday becoming president than I did"
 Stuck With the Hoss
 Although thousands of automobiles visited his home after his son be- came president, Colonel Coolidge never had a desire for this modern means of conveyance. Making the trips which his varied business in terests demanded, he stuck to his buggy and old horse, which he re- marked in 1924 was about played out" He took kindly, however, to the radio and in his later years abandoned his lifetime practice of retiring early in order to listen in, especially when an address by his son was being broadcast. He was great ly touched when President Coolidge at the close of an address near the end of the 1924 campaign said pub lie goodnight to his father
 The death of Calvin Coolidge, jr., son of the president, greatly affect ed the colonel, and his Friends said that he never fully recovered from the shock.

Takes No Credit


 Although proud of the success of his sons career, the father never was heard to take any credit for it. When Cal was in school" he once remarked, T thought he would make a good doctor, but his main thought as a youth was to get a good edu- cation and I did all in my power to help him. As a boy he always went with me to the town meeting, town caucus and such things and always when we had a public examination for schooIteachers. He was always interested in such things. The point of it is, whatever he had to do he attended to it and did the best he knew how, whether he liked it o1 not, and I think that's what he has always done"
 Merchant for Many Years
 Colonel Coolidge, although primar- fly a merchant during most of the years of his active life, was a man of many interests. After his school ing at Black River Academy at Lud- low, which his son later attended he worked for the village wheel wright cutting timber until he was p years of age. Then he rented the general store at Plymouth and conducted it until 1918, when he sold the business to devote his time to insurance interests and his duties as an officer of the Ludlow Savings Bank and Trust Company. He was one of the organizers of the latter and a charter member of the board of directors.

spend considerable time greeting tourists who came by the thousands during the months when snow did not hinder motor traffic to the vil- lage. The colonel took a great pride in showing them the table where the president signed the oath of office, the pen, the kitchen lamp and the Bible used in the administration of the oath. He also prized highly his visitors register, a series of note books containing the signatures of thousands of persons from all parts of the country.
 After his son became the occupant of the White House, Colonel Cool idge made occasional trips to Wash ington, but always appeared glad to get back to his farm and the life to which he had so long been accus- toned.

new GOLD RUSH
ON In CANADA
F'rospectors Use Planes to
Reach Bonanza.

BIZ Times Srecidt
WINNIPEG, Man. March 5.-A
modern gold rush, with the gold
seeking prospectors using airplanes
to reach the new Bonanza, Is under
way here with reports Of vast find
ings in the vicinity Of Red Lake, 200
miles north of here.
Already 500 miners have pushed
their way northward to the new
gold field and by spring there will be
greater rush on then was seen In
the Klondye, old mining men say.
For the prospectors who are in
hurry in their dash to the new
field Of fortune, airplane pilots are
charging a dollar pound for the
2OO-mile flight. Many have used the
planes to Eweep northward.
But the old methods Of northern
travel also are popular. Dog teams,
snowshoes and skis are being
pressed into service in the dash to
gold. The field is in an almost in
accessible area Of bushes and lakes
and so far the snow motors have
been unable to push across the waste
strip into the mining field.
Husky dogs for the northern trip
are selling at a premium, from $500
upward.
The new gold district has been
staked for forty miles along the
edge of the proposed strike and pros
pectors from all sections Of the
world are en- route north to work
the new bonanza.

Worthington Of Shortridge went
out in the first half on personal
fouls. Simon and Green of South

in the second period for the same
reason.

star for his club with six field goals
and two free throws. Gill led the
Shortridge scoring with four field

Nichols of the Indiana Appellate
Court, in which Nichols urged him
to retract unwarranted criticism" of
the State Supreme Court and At
torney General Arthur L. Gilliom.
''I don't see how Judges Nichols
letter got to the papers," Shumaker
said. Judge Nichols always has
been a good friend Of the Anti
Saloon League and I-considered his
letter a private personal COM
munication.
Shumaker inferred he thought
Nichols was exposing him to public
criticism by making the letter pub
lie. Nichols is a trustee of the Anti
Saloon League.
Relative to a letter Of Attorney
General Gilliom to trustees, several
days ago, attacking the superintend-
ent's annual report as false and un-
just, Shumaker said:
"I don't believe 1 am the person
to issue a statement regarding Mr..
Gilliom's letter."
Trustees will meet Tuesday to con-
slider the matter. Shumaker will not
attend. He said he was going to
Washington Monday to attend the
quarterly meeting of the Anti-Saloon
League national executive commit
tee. 1t is understood he will write
a rejoinder to Gilliom's attack and
submit it to the trustees, hoping
they will issue it for publication.

Federal Judge William Bondy sus-

cured by her attorneys when the

Decision to sustain the writ came
after about ten minutes of formal
argument between Arthur Garfield

herself to the authorities two hours

The decision established the

construe her actions as involving

to welcome back to the concert of
nations our ex-enemy that we may

end cordiality."
Despite the assurances of Baldwin
and Chamberlain the debate ended
with all Liberals, Laborites and an
important section of the conserva-
tives convinced that England had
sold out to France. The number of
Conservatives who refrained from
voting would have defeated the gov
ernment if their ballots had been
cast.

lain's position at Geneva has been
materially weakened by the result
of the balloting Thursday.
