THE PRESIDENT GREETS
HIS ALMA MATER SINGERS

The President attended the con
cert, last evening, Of the Musical
Clubs" of his own Alma Mater
Amherst College, at D. A. r
Continental Memorial Hall. A two
fold Coolidge roster for Amherst
was there, with John Coolidge home
for the holidays. 1t was a proud
day in the history OF Amherst.
And it was Mrs. Coolidge who
first rose, giving the signal that
Amherst's song ITO the Fairest
College had played its opening
bars. All the men in the filled
auditorium who wore the colors Of
Amherst were invited to the stage
for the singing of Amherst's song.
The number was surprising, per.
haps some hundred or more with
the Glee Club as a nucleus. They
gave it with marked fervor. They
sang as though their Alma Mater
was dear to their hearts.
One other intimate incident-un-
listed on the program-was the
closing song, after the formal pro-
gram had been completed. We, the
uninitiated had wondered why the
Glee Club has turned its back upon
us and clustered around the piano,
for this final song.
We saw John Coolidge leave the
Presidential box and go on the
stage to join the singers. 1t was
the Senior Song" 1t was the
song that is always sung as a
farewell, when the boys leave
Amherst and go out in the big
world to carry her ideals with
them.
So this one touch Of deep senti
ment did more for US than any
thing else to prove how lasting an
impression may be given to Youth
from a college such as this, thai
has harbored our President of tn4
United States. that has sent a sur
prising number OF distinguished
men out into the affairs Of the dig
world.
They are interesting clubs, must
cally. The leader of the glee club
Malcolm s. Langford, was alive and
decisive in his directing. The voices
were firm and sturdy, with one bic
AACGlA
every word they sang. So, If gleC
clubs make orators, we see more
surely-behind the fellowship they
engender-why great statesmen
come from Amherst.
Lord Jeffrey Amherst"--ances
tors of the college-was twice given
with fine effect, proving an inspirit
ing tale. The glee club was particu
larly fine in one Spanish sort OF q
fandango that had to be repeated
Then there was the mandolin club
and the Lord Jeffrey Serenaders, >
the latter near to the jazz personnel
of the day with college jollity thrown
in. A solo quartet was introduced
with some nice close harmony.
But foremost in Washington's
greeting of the Amherst Musica,
Clubs will be the unforgettable honor
that brought the President to them
as one of them. So it's hail to ole
Amherst" say we. May she con
tinue to send Presidents to Wash
ington!

Parents are not willing to send their
sons into a business which requires a

On the other hand, the tea trade can
not afford to pay even the smallest
wage to a boy who has to have an
other boy teach him everything.
Eighty thousand chests Of tea come
through the Lane every week on the
average. They are worth half a mil

WILKINS TO RENEW
SEARCH IN ARCTIC
Explorer Plans to Return on
Mission to Chart
"BIind Spot"
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press
SEWARD Alaska, June 14.-Capt
George III. Wilkins announced yester-
day before sailing for Seattle that he
would return to Alaska within six
weeks to renew his explorations of the
Arctic Ocean northeast of Point
Barrow.
wilkins said he had sufficient sup
plies at Point Barrow for an extensive
cruise of the Arctic regions. One plane
was left at Fairbanks for those eX-
plorations. Wilkins believes that the
late Fall offers better conditions than
the early Spring, which has more fog
banks.
The explorer has made three flights
north of Alaska in an effort to chart
the Arctic blind spot" Two flights
were attempted this year, one ending
when he was forced down in the ice
pack because of engine trouble and
the other ending when fog banks
forced him to return after he had
flown 200 miles toward Greenland
from Point Barrow.
