CHAPTER VII

When Marvin Creighton reached his
fathers house that same evening, he
found to his dismay, all the drive
ways about the place filled with limou-
sines. A party on? But that was un-
likely, for now that he no longer lived
at home, he and his mother valued
these Thursday evenings together too
much to let anything interfere with
them. This evening he especially
wanted to see her alone for the rea-
sons he had accurately stated to Miss
Schwenckton-he wanted to see the
photograph he had asked his mother
to unearth and he wanted very much
to hear about the English mail she
had received.
He surmised that he had probably
come in at the tail end OF an after
noon club meeting-the "Quo Non
Ascendus club" probably. Well, he
didn't want to be caught In that bed
iami So he stole in at a side door
and went upstairs to his own rooms.

sleeplessness and urinary disorders
often come from sluggish kidneys.

This famous salts is made from the
acid of grapes and lemon juice, COM

for years to flush and stimulate the

join CAMP AICN
TO ANSWER Al
RapS at Economy Expected
to Stir President to
Speech.
BY THOMAS L. STOKES,
limited Press staff CorresDondenf

WASHINGTON, Oct. 19-Presi-
dent Coolidge, it was believed here
today, will enter the presidential
campaign dramatically in defense of
the repeated charges by Governor
Alfred E. Smith that the admins
tration is 'mispresenting" the true
situation in its economy claims.
His speech would constitute not
only a defense of the administration,
but also a campaign speech for Her
bert Hoover, who is standing upon
the administrations record.
Only One Precedent
President Coolidge, according to
his friends, has been hesitant about
entering the campaign, despite a
desire to aid Hoover.
There is only one precedent for it,
the active campaign conducted by
President Roosevelt for William
Howard Taft, who was secretary of
war in his cabinet when nominated.
Otherwise, Presidents have de-
clined to leave their presidential
OIIlce ana assume pO1Clcal role.
Attacked Personally
But the repeated charge of the
Democratic presidential candidate
has changed the situation, Cool
idge's friends point out. Smith has
attacked the administration and
singled out Coolidge personally in
his charges.
New York, Massachusetts,, or this
city, have been suggested as places
for the Coolidge speech.
The President might make more
