Moving day faces the Presiden
and Mrs. Coolidge. They plan Il
leave the White House. A few
persons. who shall be nameless
hope they will leave the White
House permanently along about
March 4, 1929, but that is an
eyentuality that only an %inscrut-
able fate can ~foretell.
The present move is temporary.
Like many another tenant, they
+ obliged to move while the
landlord. in this case Uncle Sam.
makes certain badly needed re-
pairs on the old structure. Not
that the Coolidges particularly
wanted to move. Indeed. they are
very comfortable. As a matter of
fact they go with reluctance, but
engineers have represented to the
President and to Congress that
further occupancy of the White
House would be unwise, even
dangerous, so the President and
the White House attendants must
move.
The new, temporary White
House, home OF the President, is
at Is Dupont Circle. perhaps TWEEN
ty minutes walk from the EXecu-
tive Offices, and just around the
corner from the Presidents good
friend. Andrew Mellon, OF Pitts
burgh, Secretary of the Treasury.
AS may be surmised, the residence
is situated in the ultra-fashionable
district. Here. for perhaps the
next six months, the President and
Mrs. Coolidge will reside, while
swarm over and in and
under their present home.
Then they will return to the reno
yated Executive Mansion to live
March, 1929, and. who can
;ay, perhaps for four years there
Mrs. Coolidge has already
inspected their new residence, but
he actual moving will be deferred
until Congress adjourns in March.
The mansion which thus gains
its place in history is the Washing
ton home OF Mrs. Elmer Schlesing-
or. formerly the Countess Gizycka,
formerly Miss Eleanor Patterson.
It was built about twenty years
ago by Mrs. Robert NJ. Patterson,
of one of the publishers OF
the Chicago Tribune. and later
given to her daughter.
Containing 80 rooms and fur
in all the magniience that
can afford, the new White
House is a palatial edifice, asses
ied at %S450,00O. 1t probably could
lot be purchased for less than
hree-quarters of a million dollors.
t was designed by the famous a
Infect, Stanford White, whom Har-
y Thaw killed in a brawl over an
actress.

1t is an interesting fact that one
lone Congressman has been re-
sponsible for more than one-half
of the $4,000 bills introduced so
far in the House of Representa-
tiyes.

Public Buildings and Grounds. He
also is acting chairman of the
Committee on Invalid Pensions.
Since approximately 5000 bills
have been referred to the Pensions
Committee, and another 1000 have
gone to the Buildings Committee,
it has merely fallen in the line
of duty for Representative Elliott
to sponsor more than half of the
bills proposed thus far. Most OF
them are of a non-controyersial
character and pass under the
unanimous consent agreement. or
with little debate.

We are now about to see the
curious spectacle OF one branch
Of the government trying to en-
force the payment of excess profit
taxes gained by individuals who
violate the regulations of another
department. The Department OF
Justice proposes to see that ali the
large and prosperous b~ootleggers
pay their proper income taxes dur
ing the coming year.
Although their profits are gained
by attractions of the Eighteenth
Amendment, it is a fact that a
few bootleggers have for years
eonsientiOusly paid a fair income
tax. They have done so with the

that they are no worse than they are.
In this connection the inquiring re-
porte: was told last evening that those
who are in hospitals may be thankful
that they are not in Jail. There are
four men, one woman and one boy in
the Douglas city jail and they are
thankful that their meals are con-
tracted for from restaurant owner
who makes it a fixed rule to send a
real Thanksgiving dinner to the prison
every year.
All of the prisoners who must spend
today, as they have many weary days,
behind the bars, are immigration
prisoners, held by the immigration
service of the federal government The
city prisoners and those being held by
the county we're all released through
various arrangements, there being
none held for very serious infractions
of the law, but federal prisoners have
little means of securing such freedom,
as their please must go to Washington
to be acted upon,
Their quarters are steam heated and
as clean as a jail of rock and con-
crete and iron bars can be kept. So
it is altogether possible that some of
the prisoners may be thankful today
that they are in the Douglas city Jail
instead of some less comfortable
prison.

HIGH SCHOOL GLEE CLUBS MAKE
HIT WITH SINGING IN SHOW

Under the direction of Louise Cash
man, director of music in the Douglas
public schools, the high school glee
clubs presented their annual play at
the Grand theatre last evening to a
very good house. The play was a
success. 1t was a musical comedy
called, Carrie Comes to College,
Stars among the performers we're
Bee Sexton, who played the part of
Ma jenkins, the proprietress of a
college boarding house Miss Sexton
did her part well from one end of the
comedy to the other
Lucille Glenn as Carrie the heroine
of the plot, had difficult role as there
were many long songs in which she
figured. She was charming through
out. Mable Frost as Bobby, portrayed
a difficult character with a delightful
degree of ability
The star comedian of the cast and
one of the best appearances on the
stage was Arthur Pine in the part of a
Jew tailor He drew the applause Of
the crowd throughout the evening.
Cosme Barcelo, playing the leading
role as the spoiled son of a rich man,
carried his part nobly. His voice has
excellent qualities which were requir-
ed for this part ed his stage man
ners were very good.
A suffering fat boy played by James
Reay drew many cheers and was well
done. The actors and actresses worked
together and the greatest success of
the show lay in the we'll trained voices.
Especially remarkable was the chorus
work and fthis probably those
cloruses which we're off stage were
the best In the scenes that which
was most touching in many respects
was "Son Long Cupid in which six
tiny girls dressed as cupids with bows
and darts danced before as many
young men.
Another very charming scene was
the chorus in Pretty Is An Pretty
Does in which the artistry of costum-
ing was brought to the fore. Repeated
efforts to encore this offering failed
and the theatregoers were afforded
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-11-24

but brief glimpse of tho beauties of
the dance.
The finale in the first act presented
some keenly engineered, ensemble
movements and excellent singing. The
Little Gingham Gown" scene in which
the chorus appeared in that sort of
apparel attracted much encourage
ment from the spectators.
Credit is due those who coached the
voices both those of the chorus and in
the leading roles. The costumes were
unusually fittin, the play was not be-
yond the abilities of the cast except
that some of the solo work was lengthy
and the humor and romance of the
scheme were carried out with suf-
ficient genuine harmony to produce a
consistent whole. s.sf.

SPIRIT OF DAY
NVADES PRISON
and HOSPITALS

The spirit of, thankfulneSs invadeS
every walk of life and every condi-
ton of existence. This was evidenced
yesterday when investigation brought
out that everyone in any sort of in
,stitution in this district will have a
turkey dinner today and entertainment
suitable to the occasion.
Probably the most Joyous Thanks
giving and the most thankful will be
at the county hospital where the
patients were reported last night to be
all in condition to eat turkey except
cne who is on liquid diet and must
be denied the annual Thanksgiving
feast.
The dinner at the county hospital
will be served to the patients at 2
o'clock in the afternoon the arrange
ments calling for an early breakfast
and a late dinner and no further meals
during the day. At $3.50 o'clock the
nurses at the county hospital will
entertain Dir. and Mrs. E. w. Adamson
at dinner Special music for the day
is to be furnished by a group of per-
sons from BiSbee who have volunteered
to play for the patients during the

DOUGLAS BUSINESS men WILL
PUSH RED CROSS ROLL ABOVE
1000 BEFORE ENDING DRIVE

This Thanksgiving morning the
people of Douglas have a right to be
thankful for the best record they
have vet made in Red Cross affairs
it was stated yesterday by one closely
connected with the work of the an
nual Red Cross roll call. There
already has been turned into the
treasurer, H. W. Williams, total
of $3.50 in cash and that stands
close to a record if not record
for memberships here.
But the thing that gives the great
est cause for the city to be thankful,
according to the person referred TO.
is the fact that there is 6 class
Of business men in the city who do
not propose to leave the results OF
the roll call "ciose to q record" but
they propose to put it over the top
And to that end they have determir-
ed upon membership of 1000 and
no less and they are going out to
get it.
The official date for the closing
of the annual membership roll call
is tomorrow evening But the busi-
ness men of the city have taken it
upon themselves to extend the time
until next week and they will then
canvas the business district and gath
er the remaining $47O needed to
place the mark over $1,000 before
the report Of the city is made to
the national headquarters of the
American Red Cross.
It is the desire of the people who
have been in charge of the roll call
to give everybody who has not en-
rolled chance to get into the fold.
It is suggested by one of the leaders
that Thanksgiving day is an excep-
tional time to send the check to the
Red Cross and ask q to be enrolled.
It is pointed out that as one reflects
over the last years work Of the
Red Cross in helping unfortunate
peoples in various parts of the coun.
try, there ought tc come the con-
viction that giving the membership
fee to the Red Cross is giving that
much to a wonderful charity 1t
also might be remembered that within
the next year misfortune might
strike closer home than it has in
the last year and if such should hap
pen it would be a case OF preparing
to help those more truly our neigh
borS.
Checks made to the American Red
Cross or to Henry W. Williams, see
retary of the Douglas chapter Of the
American Red Cross and mailed to
Mr. Williams at the Bank of Douglas
will insure membership.

BECAUSE

Because we like each others COM
pany,
And are often seen together,
Because he seems so tender to me,
In fair or stormy weather,
They say this younger generation,
Is fast going to the dogs.
That we are a foolish federation,
And are blind about life's fog's.
because they sometimes see as in
the moonlight
Walking, looking at the stars,
Because we seem to be so bright,
And will ride all sorts Of cars,
They say, "these children sure are
wild,
They are a crooked band,
Their myriad fooleries makes me
riled,
In He'll they'll surely land"
But do they erer stop to think,
Of their time long ago?
Tried they did but were caught on
the brink
Their chance for freedom was
low.
For grandma went riding with
Joe, I know,
In squeaky buggy and horse.
They parked meath willows and
did not go
what's the use-I know we
aren't worse.
Had they just had a car or 30,
And the chance that we now
have,
1t simply will be, what did they
not do.
Instead of what did they do.
