A summer White House will be
established on the Pacific Coast
this year for the first time in
history.
President HOOver'S tentative
plans for the summer call for his
going to his old home in PalO
Alto the latter part of June, and
it is not likely Washington will
see him again much before Sep
tember /.
These plans, of course, are sub
ject to change, but barring un-
expected developments which
would require his presence in
Washington, Mr.. Hoover contem-
plates " real vacation"
Has Dozen Speeches
In the next two months Mr..

Washington. On June IS he is
due to appear in Indianapolis be-
fore a convention Of Republican
editors of the State.
The next day he will go to
Marion, Ohio, to dedicate the
Harding Memorial and then
back-track to Springfield, ILL.,, to
dedicate the Tomb to Lincoln on

No engagements have been
made for the President beyond
the Springfield address, and the
present expectation is that Mr.

WAKE UP YOUR LIVER BILE
 1 WITHOUT CAL0MEL
And You'll Jump Out of Bed in
 the Morning Karin to Go

If you feel sour and sunk and the world looks punk, don't swallow a lot of salts, mineral water oil, laxative candy or chewing gum and expect them to make you suddenly sweet and buoyant and full of sunshine.
 For they can't do it. They only move the bowels and a mere movement doesn't get at the cause. The reason for your down-and-out feeling is your liver. It should pour out two pounds of liquid bile into your bowels daily.
 If this bile is not flowing freely, your food doesn't digest. It just decays in the bowels Gas bloats up your stomach. You have a thick, bad taste and your breath is foul, skin often breaks out in blemishes. Your head aches and you feel down and out Your whole system Is poisoned.
 It takes those good, old CAMPERS LITTLE LIVER PILLS to get these two pounds of bile flowing freely and make you feel ''up and up" They contain wonderful, harmless, gentle vegetable extracts, amazing when it comes to making the bile flow freely.
 But don't ask for liver pills Ask for Carter's Little Liver Pills. Look for the name Carter's Little Liver Pills on the red label. Resent substitute @ 1851 C. M. Go.

Private persons are taught to cut according to their cloth, but governments go right ahead with theih tailoring, and holler for more cloth.

CURRENT COMMENT AT
 THE NATIONS CAPITOL

Australia has revolt, but flat tens it out in 24 hours In the War of the Revolution, England brought over some Hessians to put down the revolt then in pro- gress, but they did not succeed so well. Europe has had a good deal of training in handling hard sit nations since 1776, and might do better now. America, on the other hand. does not seem to be able to lick gangsters as easily as she did the Hessians. Everything consid- cred. it might be a good idea to sign up a few regiments of 24- hour operating Australians and let them try their hand on the two-gun men of New York, Chi cago and some other large cities.

WALES MAY RIVAL MELLON As RARE BOOK COLLECTOR

LONDON, Oct. 21. (A) - The Prince of Wales has become a rare edition addict. Like Andrew Mellon, secretary of the United States Treasury, his interest prin- cipally is in old books with fine bindings. One of his latest pur- chases was a snagnificently bound set of Byron in eight volumes.
 Most members of the royal family buy fine books, but the taste of the Duke of Gloucester runs rather to old sporting prints of which he has a considerable :. knowledge.

 FORT IS GOING TO CLEAN AGAIN
Laramie, in Wyoming, te Be Whitewashed, Be-
 come Memorial

FORT LARAMIE, Wyoming, Oct 1.-Old Fort Laramie, battle scar red and weather beaten, will gleam again in whitewashed splendor.
 Where once along the old Ore gon trail the pioneers sought shel- ter from Indian arrows the autoist will come to marvel at mementos of the whiteman-redman struggle for an empire.
 Almost 100 years have passed since the first log was laid at Fort Larimie, first military outpost in Wyoming.
 But before the anniversary of that century in 1884 the state gov ernment probably will have ac- quired the site and what remains of the old buildings of the Indian outpost for a permanent memorial to western pioneers and a Fort Larimie museum.
 Glamor ana Romance
 First steps toward acquiring and restoring the property were talk en when the Wyoming Historical Landmarks commission moved to buy the land. Ag
 The history of old Fort Laramie actually dates back to 1920 and before when Jacques La Ramie, French-Canadian trapper, mad. his headquarters at the junction of what later were to be named the Platte and Laramie rivers.
 Then in 1884 came Robert Camp

bell and Capt. William Sublette who picked the site as an ideal one for a trading post.
 After constructing several build ings and naming the place Fort William they sold out the next year to a syndicate of trappars headed by the famous Jim Bridger and Milton Sublette.
 Rebuilt in 1886
 Next it passed into the hands of the American Fur company, which rebuilt it in 1886.
 The trading post soon became the control point for the Rocky Moun- tain region.
 The post was purchased by the government in 1849 and remained a military post until 1890. when it was sold to private individuals.
