The President spent the greater part
of the forenoon reading and sitting
beside the car window. He smoked al
most incessently Morning editions OF
newspapers had been put aboard shs
train, and the President was greatly
interested in the reports of the election
results in Maine.
President Coolidge was deeply touched
by the manner in which the citizens
turned out late yesterday afternoon to
bid farewell to him ar / Mrs. Coolidge.
though the air was colder and there
was driving rain, more than 1900 per-
sons gathered abaut the front grounds
of the Superior High School, which
had served as the executive office.
At the station nearly thousand per-
sons we're on hand to wave good-by.
