C00LIDGES GET
SOUTHERN FOOD
Quail, Virginia Ham, Apples,
Turkey Presented Vacation
ing President

Swannanoa Club, near Waynes-
boro, Virginia, Dec. 1.-(AP)-That
southern hospitality which almost
everyone has heard about being en-
joyed by President and Mrs. Cool
idge at their country residence here
in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
To make up for the fact that the
president does not wish to accept any
invitations, the people hereabouts
are stopping at Swannanoa and leav-
ing all sorts of gifts of food famous
down here in the old dominion.
First to come was dozen quail
bagged on an estate neighboring
Swannanoa, and an invitation that il
the president would choose to should
er his gun, he would be sure to find
some for himself.
Then came big, juicy Virginia
ham cooked by an old nanny, Mary
Venier. who is full of pride because
famous persons like Marshal Foch
and General Pershing have tasted
her dishes. The ham that Mary
turned out was covered with brown
sugar rubbed well into the tender
meat and stuck frll of cloves.
A fruit cake, described as "old
fashioned in every way" is resting
on shelf of Swannanoa's kitchen
and in the basement are six boxes of
apples grown in the neighborhood.
The thirty pound turkey the presi-
dent had for Thanksgiving dinner
was sent by friends in Charlottes-
vile.
The life at Swannanoa is quiet.
Both the President and Mrs. Coolidge
are seeking rest and few people have
seen them since they returned to the
club after a day in Charlottesville
Thursday. A similar day of quiet
was the order for today. Tomorrow
Mr.. and Mrs. Coolidge may attend
church nearby and leave sometime
that day for Washington.

Med" rosnent os Time
Vague Among CaDages

StlGiGe methods OF counting time
are IT. vogue among savage and semi
ctvili%,d peoples, and often the scarc
ty or abundance of rations serves to
measure the year. Thus In Alaska.
one month Is known as "people gnaW
belts" for at that time seals and fish
are particularly scarce and the tribes
are often on the verge of starvation
In Dalomey, French West Africa the
year is divided only into the times
of Planting and eating maize, of plant
ing again, and Of harvest.
The Polynesians have month Of
grumbles,' the time of little food,
rainy weather, smoking houses, wa

Among more primitive races the meas
urement of time is even more vague
The chief of Pacific island may re-
ply, when asked how long his house
has been standing, that 1t has existed
for only two smallpox epidemlcs
These methods of distinguishing the
seasons, 1t is said, are akin to the
inability of primitive peoples to count
There Is saying In Denmark that all
who desire to remain perpetually

they will never be more than twenty
years old. No native of Greenland

They could see In the distance walled

By HOmer's time, they, too, we're

Of metal and ornaments Of gold Al.
though they had not learned to read
or write, they were finding music
and dancing an outlet for their de
