ors IN company with Tamn1any's

Somehow, Calvin Coolidge's repu:a"

ON the otner hand, one corre-

States was more excited and thrilled
over Lindbergh's feat than the presi-
dent. This was quite absurd, for Mr..
Coolidge hasn't been genuinely ex-

The fact that stands out just now
is that Mr. Coolidge has done the
correct thing by Lindbergh and has
done Just what the country wanted

Fine Idea
More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE -
By JANE

Whenever I take up my pen
In my obscure and tiny flat,
Across the street a gang of men
Start up an echoing rat-tat-tatl
Such thoughts as I possess take wing,
Back in my chair I have to lean
And listen to that riveting +
Machine.
In time 1 came to like the noise
My ear drums ached and throbbed
no more
1 toiled with easy equipoiSe
Unconscious of the din and roar;
But as my hurrying pen I piled
And speeded up my thoughts bit
just as I got into my stride
They quit.
Once more I searched vacant mind
With a distressed and troubled
heart,
No more ideas could I find
Than when I made my futile start.
Bereft was I of plot or plan,
I sat and cursed those wretched
men
Until the riveting began
Again.
Through noise or silence can ply
My trade, and keep steady gait,
Across the sheets my pen will fly
Excepting when they alternate.
If only that grim visaged lot
Would rear their rivet-Welded wall
Eight hours at stretch, or not
At all
