To See New Pageant, One Must
Visit Dam

superior. Wis, Aug. 81 R1Presi-
dent Coolidge looked forward today
to being thoroughly informed re-
gardlng the political situation in
Ohio by Walter Brown. assistant sec
rotary OF commerce. who he had in
Flted to the summer White House.
Following a day largely given
over to familiarizing himself with
the Michigan political situation, the
chief executive aspired to have COW
cred before night another state in
his general political survey of the
middlewest and northwest Charles
Beecher Warren of Detroit, former
ambassador to Mexico yesterday
gave Mr.. Coolidge the benefit of his
knowledge of politics in Michigan
Mr.. Brown was very active in Her
bert Hoover's preconvention cam
paign. especially in Ohio, and it was
believed that the chief executive
would be glad to combine executive
matters with political discussions
during Mr.. Browns stay here.
A visit to the adjacent harbors of
CupSTlOI anu DuluLL ldu DeeQ
planned for Mr.. Coolidge today. so
that he might view from the decks
of small launch the detailed work
ings of what had been described to
him as one OF the largest ship load
ting centers in the world.
At the Superior coal docks and
the enormous ore docks. the largest
in the world, arrangements had been
made to begin loading operations as
soon as the presidents launch
should come abreast some of the
ships, so that the chief executive
might have an opportunity to see
how fifteen thousand tons of iron
ore could be poured into a vessel in
about half an hour, if necessary.
The large grain elevators and
loading facilities in the harbors
were also on display for the presi-
dent.
Mr.. Coolidge had the last op-
portunity today to fish for trout in
the open Brule river. At midnight
the trout season closes and hence
forth the chief executive will be
obliged to apply himself to bass OF
other lake fishing In the neighbour
hood or to angle in the private en-
closed lakes on the Cedar Island
lodge estate which are privately
stocked.

this loyal, unfailing friend of man
first met him, first learned to de-
fend his flocks, his dwelling, his
person and the lives of those dear
to him, but wherever we have this
creature we call man, there we
have found his faithful friend and
companion, the dog. always will

beaten, starved. cruelty treated,
ready to lick the hand that has
hurt him. A good man once said,
when my father and mother for
sake me then the Lord will take
me up" Might not one say that,
when a man might feel forsaken Of
every earthly friend. there would
still be looking up into his face
the gentle. trusting eyes of his de-
voted dog, saying by every look
and sign, "Where thou goest will
go, thy lot shall be my lot. nor
shame, nor loss. nor prison bars
shall move me from thy side. y

Sea RoDers Ambition
to Settle Nelu World

Americas first real-estate deyel-
opment was promoted by Eric the
Red. Erie anticipated modern
sales methods by more than 900
years. He spent three summers
moving back and forth along the
west coast of the land he had dis
covered, searching for pleasant dis
tricts to settle, for he had made up
his mind to found a colony. He
was thus not only the first Arctic
explorer, and the discoyerer of the
new western world. but also the
first of that typical western product
the realtors. For the "Saga of
Eric the Red" tells us that, in con.
nection with his plan to secure set,
tiers, he hit upon the device of
calling the place Green Land, "con-
ceiving that people would all the
more desire to go there if it had
fair name"
That winter Eric carried out
publicity campaign so successfully
that in the spring of 9S6 twenty
five ships set sail with him for
Greenland. The colonists were
something between 400 and 700.
The numbers of the domestic ami
mails have never been estimated,
but in variety they were all the
common ones of Iceland horses,
cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens,
geese and dOgs.-Vilhjalmar Stef-
ansson in the Forum Magazine.

Shades Of Differences
in Term Thorou9hbred

When you say another woman
is thoroughbred you feel that you
have paid a compliment. What
exactly do you mean?
One ingenious writer once ex-
planned that real thoroughbred
individual has a fine clear skin, fine
hair of either light-br0wn, dark
brown, black, red or auburn hue,
bright clear eye-either tall or
short but not excessively fat nor
lean, regular teeth, well-propor-
toned nose, large nostrils, WELL
curved jaws, full. red and moist
lips, well-rounded ears, smooth
or rich and full voice.
Probably your own notion Of
thoroughbred has more to dc with
temperament, manner and mental
traits than these purely physical
features, though undoubtedly there
are some physical characteristics
that you do consider essential to
the real thoroughbred.
Perhaps you feel that a thor
cughbred must. simply must, have
shapely hands-and that the wom-
an who has very stubby fingers
with nails considerably broader
than long cannot be a thorough
bred. That notion goes along sat
isfactorily until you happen to
meet a woman with short fingers
and very stubby nails who really
is very much of a Thoroughbred

RED CROSS NURSES AID
IN HURRICANE DISASTER

In addition to their year around
work in the Public Health field,
the Public Health nurses of the
American Red Cross have answer
ed a number of calls to combat cpl
denies, and in disaster work dur
ing the year just ending, the Red
Cross states.
Their greatest task was in the
relief following the West Indies
hurricane when 20 nurses were
despatched to Florida and 80 to
Porto Rico, to assume charge Of
the health work there. Epidemic
conditions were especially grave
In both places, and incubation of
several hundred thousand persons
had to be arranged in order to pre-
vent spread of contagious. Nursing
the injured, the sick, aged and
young and caring for the newborn
were heavy tasks In both areas.
The Red Cross nurses also were
called upon for work in epidemics
in communities, including the Sc
rious septic sore throat epidemic
In New England and typhoid cpl
demic in New York state.
More than $50 Red Cross Chap
tiers throughout the nation operate
nursing services which they sup
port altogether or in part.

Red Cross Membership
Is Sound Investment,
Business Leader Says

1--WE believe that individual
membership In the American
Red Cross is sound investment
yielding the investor tremendous
returns in personal satisfaction"
is the statement Of William
Butterworth, president OF the
Chamber of Commerce OF the
United States, in endorsing the
twelfth annual roll call OF the
American Red Cross, Nov. 11-29.
Mr.. Butterworth's statement
follows:
"The men engaged in carrying
forward the business and indus
try of this nation are quick to re-
spond, and respond generously,
when human suffering calls for
their assistance. They welcome
the existence of an organization
authorized by international
treaty and congressional charter
to act as their agency, and the
agency Of all the people. in pro-
yiding relief in disaster and pro-
noting their beneficial services
to humanity. The nations busi-
ness men take particular pleas
ure in supporting The American
National Red Cross because 1t
has applied sound and efficient
business technique and admins.
trative methods without sacrifice
of sympathy and understanding
in the prevention and mitigation
of human suffering.
1.-THE Chamber Of Commerce
of the United States. as repre-.
sentative Of the nations bust
ness, has such confidence in the
American Red Cross that 1t calls
upon its member organizations
to contribute to relief in disaster
only upon Red Cross assurance
that an appeal is necessary.
1--WE believe that individual
membership in the American
Red Cross is a sound invest
ment, yielding the investor tre-
mendous returns in personal sat
isfaction. The Red Cross is
seeking to increase its member
ship to five million; the opportu-
nifty to join it's ranks is present
ed by the Red Cross Chapters
throughout the nation from No
vember II to 80. 1t is good to be
link in this great chain of serv-
