 Cottage in Woods

Paul Smiths, N. r., Aug. Pl- A little white cottage in the midst of pine forest on the weeded shores of lower St. Regis lake has become the seat of the executive department of the federal government.

 Mir. CooIidges office, where he spends several hours each day, is on the second floor overlooking the wa ter. Seated at his desk he goes over his mail, reads the newspapers. signs papers, dictates to his private stenographer, and talks with his secretary, Edward T. Clark. He also receives occasional visitors including persons who come to pay their re- spects or who have obtained ap- pointments to meet him after his work is done.

The daily pro- gram has become so smoothly ar ranged.
