WARMTH Of SOUTH
True Southern Hospitality
Groets Them on Vacation

Swannanoa Club, near Waynes-
boro, Va. Dec. R)-That southern
hospitality which almost everyone
has heard about is being enjoyed
by President and Mrs. Coolidge 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 here
abouts are stopping at Salamanca
and leaving all sorts of gifts of food
famous down here in the Old Do
1ninion.
First to come were a dozen quail
Swannanoa, and an invitation that
if the president would choose to
shoulder his gun, he would be sure
to find some for himself.
Then came big. juicy Virginia
ham cooked by an old nanny.
Mary VERNE. 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 we'll into the
tender meat and stuck full of
cloves.
A fruit cake. described as "old
fashioned in every way" is resting
in 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.
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 SINH
lar day Of quiet was the order .or
today. Tomorrow Mr.. and Mrs.
Coolidge may attend church nearby
and leave sometime that day for
Washington.

VES7RIS INQUIRY
FINALLY CLOSED
Steamship Co. Absolved Though
Blame Is Not Placed

New York. Dec. / R9-The federal
investigation OF the sinking Of the
British liner vestris OF the Virginia
Capes November ~ with the loss Of
10 lives II closed. All that remain
ed today was a report OF their md
ings by the two nautical advisers
at the inquiry and that Of the pre-
siding commissioner.
The advisers, Captain e. P. Jes-
sop. representing the United States.
and Captain Henry McConkey. the
British government. are to summa-
rice their findings Wednesday. Com
missioner O'Neil will make his re-
port later.
In an address at the conclusion
Of his introduction OF testimony,
United States Attorney Tuttle re-
iterated his statement made at the
opening OF the inquiry that 1t was a
fact finding" investigation and had
not been conducted with the object
OF finding a scapegoat.
He said II had been made clear
that the shifting Of tho cargo was
not responsible for the disaster and
that the owners had been cleared
of the charge that they knew of
the desperate condition OF the ves-
sci before the sos. was sent. He
outlined constructive suggestions
that had been made In regard to
the adoption of better life preserv-
ers and that all underwater out
lets to the sea be placed In vessels
SO that they be accessible ut all
times. One theory of the sinking Of
the Vestris Is that sanitary pipes
in the coal bunkers which were in
accessible burst and flooded the
vessel.
Mr.. futile criticized Steamboat
Inspector Edward Keane for not
having lowered the ifeboats Of the
Vestris when he inspected the ves-
sci just prior to the sailing. The in
spector had previously testified It
was impossible to lower the boats
because of the presence Of lighters
alongside the weasel and also read q
rule OF the department Of commerce
which exempted foreign vessels
from this provision Of inspection.
The federal attorney said the fall
ure to lower tho boats was mex
cusable unless the convenience Of
few lighters Il to take precedence
over the protection Of human life
In an emergency"
Mr.. futile also put forward the
question Of whether tramp steamers
should be required to carry radio
equipment after Chief Mate George
Harrison Of the steamer Montoso
testified that his ship was within
six miles Of the Vestris on Novem-
Der II and only Is mile away when
she sank yet knew nothing Of the
difficulties she was in.

Psychiatrist Declares Child
Should Not Be Made
Center of Maternal Love
fIt Is to Be Independent

More than so per cent Of the
children brought into the world to-
day are the victim Of overindulgence
by their mother and are forced to
start life mentally crippled" stated
DR.. Mary q. schrader. q psychiatrtst
on the staff of the Rush Medical
hospital In Chicago. speaking at the
regular staff conference of the Visit
ing Nurse association held yesterday
afternoon at $3.50 o'clock at the par
lors Of the r. W. C. A. William w.
T. Squire. Junior Achievement d.
rector. Edward c. Connolly, proba-
ton officer, and Oscar A. Erickson.
scout executive. we're present ~
guests Of the association. The con-
ference was largely attended.
Children should be started In life
with . fair. decent adjustment and
taught to take tho proper attitude
towards life," DR.. Schrader said.
Motherhood 10 tho foundation of q
child's life but unfortunately moth
erhood 10 not always wise and by
overindulgence warps the mind Of
the child and leaves II mentally un-
fit to begin life with the right ideas.
THE child should be made to un-
derstand that he is not the greatest
person in the world but that there
are others just az great and better.
Overindulgence of the child by its
mother cripples the mind Of the
child and leaves 1t unfit to properly
adjust itself.
I'm many cases children that are
born cripples are better able to face
the problems OF the world because of
their physical defects. than children
that are overindulged by their moth
ers. Crippled children must learn
to overcome their physical defects In
order to become properly adjusted
to life's problems.
Mothers that overindulge their
children show that they have an
infant personality and really have
no more understanding than the
child itself. A child should not be
made the center of a mothers whole
love. II mother would look ahead
and plan what she wants her child
to be in future life, the evil Of over
indulgence would disappear. She
would then teach the child to over
come obstacles when young. Life
10 really a period Of weaving. As
the child grows up it meets new
problems and difficulties and adj
vances from one period Of life to
another.
children should be taught to
have courage and a strong desire to
grow up. Many Of the only chill
dren take things easy and refuse to
grow up and take hold Of the
worlds problems. BY giving them
a real idea of courage they will at
tempt to take the proper attitude
toward life and the problems that
count the most.
Children should be encouraged
to use their intelligence and energy
and should not be pitied every time
they meet with q misfortune. Give
them the idea that every problem
they encounter is one OF life's diff
culties and they will soon learn to
grasp their opportunities as they
come along"

BALANCE FOR YEAR
ON TRINITY BOOKS
Csls@ kalls Expenditures
Within Income hf 1913

Hartford. Dec. AFTER announc-
Ing that for the nth successive
year Trinity college has closed its is
cal period with small balance Of
income over expenditures. President
r. B. Ogilby. ip his annual report to
the trustees OF the college today.
commented on = recent magazine
article. Are the Colleges Playing
Poor" that has aroused considerable
interest.
In reply to the author Of this
article. who accused the colleges Of
playing poor" In order to stimu-
late wealthy people to make gifts
and requests in their favor. DR..
Ogilby says. "A college that deliber-
ately maintains Fictitious deficits as
a means Of appeal for funds 10 not
only dishonest, as the writer Of the
article implies, but foolish o. well.
do not believe that prospective
donors are moved by walls about de-
ficits successful business men
like to see evidence that their gifts
are not only filling real needs, but
are being administered with some
degree of business skill"
In support Of = statement that
successful administration of coll
lege depends not 70 much on the
size of endowment ~ on the skill
with which funds are handled, DR..
Ogilby cited Trinity's balanced
budget and revealed that every Sc
curity held by the college IN paying
interest. the average income from all
investments being Sis per cent.
Gifts During Year
Gifts and requests received by
Trinity during the last academic
year included 100000 from William
G. Mather of Cleveland for a new
chapel. $4,000 from the late Frank
c. Sumner of Hartford. and $4,000
from w, H. Russell Of Los Angeles
or the establishment OF fellowship.
Passing to q consideration OF tho
position and problems Of the small
college today. he declared that their
chief purpose is not TO prepare
young men for an occupation in
life. but to conserve right values"
and to "perpetuate spiritual truth"
The college. he said. us not merely
q machine for making more success
full the privileged youth Of mater
ialistic civilization"
So widespread 10 the conception or
education as preparation for eco
! nomic life, however. that ut is ex-
ceedingly difficult to Withstand the
pressure to make our colleges voca-
tional institutions" DR.. Ogilby con-
tinusd, but against this misconcep-
ton the small liberal arts colleges
OF New England have long made .
definite stand. With the indepen-
dence Of private management ana
the prestige of age. they offer to
youth an indefinable thing called
culture. which resists appraisal In
material terms. Though they con-
descend 80 far az to arrange q course
OF study which has definite rela-
ton to coming professional studies,
they endeavor the more eagerly to
insist that the professional man
should have the background of .
rich and varied cultural education"
