the departure tonight for the Black

from Rapid City, where the presi-
dental party will detrain late We'd
nesday.
Despite his weekend as host to
Col Charles A. Lindbergh, the presi-

today and few hours at his desk
in the morning followed by another
brief visit to his office in the after

town for the summer. There were
a few. callers to say good bye and
some routine business demanding at

In the afternoon Mr.. Coolidge spoke
briefly at the opening of the first
international congress of soil science.
He will deliver another address to-
morrow at Hammond, Ind, dedicating
