Mrs. Coolidge Writes
Of Courtship Days

NEW YORK, Jan. IS G.N.S).
Hitherto unrevealed first-hand
anecdotes about the late Calvin
Coolidge, written by Mrs. Cool
idge in collabors ton with so
distinguished Americans, will be
published in series form by
Good Housekeeping magazine be-
ginning in the February issue,
on sale today.
Mrs. Coolidge, in her first
article, discloses that even in
his courtship the late President
was a man of few words, and
she also gives a sidelight in
teresting in connection with the
famous II do not choose to run"
dictum. OF this latter, Mrs.
Coolidge writes:
"In spite Of my prOtesta-
tiOns, MIR. Coolidge delighted
in saying to those who seemed
interested in my reactions to
public life:
"'She has kept me running
for public office ever since I
married her."
The former Presidents widow
reveals that in his courtship days
Mr.. Coolidge didn't choose even to
say much. Once they went buggy
riding to call on one of her col
lege friends. Mrs. Coolidge writes:
my friend was normally a
talkative person. but we re-
ceived no assistance from the
man on the sofa. Not one word
did he utter and when, at last,

At the banquet given HIM last

Of SCHOOL

Drafting of a bill to provide the
transfer of the Industrial Home
School at Observatory Circle to
the 155 acre farm near Muirkirk,
Md, was under study today by the
District Commissioners.
The Board Of Public Welfare
recommended that the local indus
trial school be moved to the Mary
land site, which was originally pur-
chased as the location for the Ma
tional Training School for Girls,
and the Commissioners instructed
Corporation Counsel E. Barrett
Prettyman to investigate the pos
Sibility of gaining authorization
by Congress for such a move.
District Auditor Daniel j. Dono-
van reported that although incor-
rigible girls are now cared for at
the Industrial Home School, it is
primarily an institution for boys
and Congres sional permission
would be necessary for the use Of
the Maryland property.
The Muirkirk property has not
been used by the District for sev.
eral years and new buildings
would have to be constructed if
the industrial school is transfer
red. At present a Civilian Con-
servation Corp camp is located on
the site.
Commissioner Melvin c. Hazen
pointed out that sale of the prop"
erty of the Observatory Circle
home would probably finance the
construction of necessary new
buildings.

glasses their eyes were clear and lustrous.
Their trim, closely cut hair was fragrant and
shining. Their compilations - due no doubt
to a discreet use of cosmetics, much soap and
water and an UNMARRIED program of right living
and high thinking - their compilations were
perfect.
The day of the disastrous encounter with
Larry Walsh, Miss Ames had luncheon at the
Periwinkle Tea Shop which was in itself, with
its pale blue draperies. its pale yellow china
and its rather attenuated MENU an exemplifi-
cation of right living and ..igh thinking Her
friend, Miss Trimble. was with her.
But who is this Larry?" Priscilla asked
"Oh, don't you know Larry He's priceless
And invaluable. He sells more silver than all
other statesmen put together"
IL don't see how he does it. His grammar is
unbelievable"
It's his personality, suppose"
His personality!"
Don't you think he's attractive? Why,
think with his red hair, his grin and his slight
Irish brogue and blue eyes he's irresistible.
But so ordinary" protested Miss Ames.
"Oh, yes, very ordinary" Miss Trimble
was quick to agree Maybe her enthusiasm
had been little unrestrained. After all, too
much enthusiasm isn't quite quite - we'll,
you know what we mean.
And then. week or two later the in
explicable. the impossible happened. Larry
Walsh invited Miss Priscilla Ames to dinner.
But that wasn't the most impossible i'm
possible. For Miss Ames accepted. He stopped
beside her desk on his way to Mr.. Winthrops
Office Doing anything tonight. sister,"
What" said Miss Ames
II asked you if you were doing anything
Evening star., 1935-07-07

MY instructions are not to let any one
see MIR. Winthrop without an appointment,
said Priscilla with fortitude.
Larys eyes twinkled. He ran his large
hand through his hair. well I'll be damnedr'
he exploded 1t s plain to be seen you're new,
sister"
Just then the door of the private office
opened and Mr.. Winthrop emerged Come
on in. Larry" he said quietly. There's no
need of making all that noise out there
Miss Ames realized she had made blunder
of some sort. And for fearsome moment she
thought, We'll, maybe this will cost me my
job Perhaps this terrible person, whoever he
is, will complain to Mr. Winthrop" But all
the terrible person, who hadn't even had the
politeness to remove his hat, did now was to
tip it slightly to Miss Ames, favor her with
generous wink and follow Mr. Winthrop into
his Office.
She found out who Larry was from one of
the other girls. Miss Trimble, secretary of the
advertising manager who, although she didn't
come from New England, was very nice.
The two girls, Miss Trimble and Miss Ames,
formed a small clique of two, inclined to look
down their noses bit at the other girls in the
office. In their own estimation, they we're both
very refined and intelligent and altogether
superior young ladies. What other girls in the
Office, they thought, read Proust and dis
cussed him? What others went to every pro-
duction good or bad, of the Theatre Guild?
What others lived in the Professional Woman's
Club to which, after Miss Ames had described
its advantages Qectures in the main hall every
Tuesday and Friday Miss Trimble had moved.
They were not bad looking young ladies.

of course. the ghosts of ofalmost
three hundred years of New

visible or not, they had
helped her get her job.
"Your name is Priscilla Ames," Archibald
Winthrop, the president had said when he
had consented to interview personally few
of the many applicants. 1T sounds like
good old New England name When was
boy used to visit in Peterboro and there
were some Ames there In fact, the Ames were
more or less Peterboro"
"Yes, I'm one of those Ames," said Pris-
ella, and added seriously but now they're
much more less than more"
And know some Ames here in New York.
They live in East Sixty seventh Street. I've
dined there OCCASIONALLY
''Yes, they're cousins of mine," said Pris-
ella That is, sort of cousins
Anyway she got the job. Priscilla Ames,
secretary of the distinguished Archibald
Winthrop. president of the Colonial Silver
Company. Once upon time the Ames would
have been Mortified that any Miss Ames was
forced to make her own living But. as you've
heard, times change. And although they had
helped Priscilla land job. ghosts don't really
count for much any more.
Yet once more they asserted themselves
and had bad case of the jtters when Pris
ella first encountered Larry Walsh. Larry
Walsh who had risen from errand boy in the
Colonial Silver Company to its star salesman,
Larry whose own ghosts, if any were probably
still occupied in shying bricks at each other
and rushing the growler on Tenth Avenue
over near the railroad tracks.
The usual procedure for any one who wanted
to see Mr. Winthrop was to inquire at the
reception desk, send in his name, wait and,
like as not, wait in vain. For MIR. Winthrop
was difficult to see. As like as not, one was
referred to our MIR. Brown. or our Mr.. Jones.
Or if one were employed by the Colonial Silver
Company one telephoned Mr.. Winthrop's
secretary, who was now the prim Priscilla. and
begged for an appointment. But Larry used
neither method. Instead, he came clustering
up to Priscilla's desk and shouted, Hello.
you're new, amt you? Is the old boy in9"
Amt you! Miss Ames took an immediate
dislike to Mr.. Walsh. What language! Have
you an appointment she asked frigidly.
Larry Walsh laughed. Say, between you
and I. sister" he said. I'm the one who
don't tneed an appointment with MIR. Archibald
Winthrop Just tell him Larry's back. Just
tell him Larry wants to see him"

up to me- sister. when you wouldn't let me in
to see the old boy Id like to see you with
those glasses off, too. You don't wear them
on party, do you' Well 60 to any high
toned place you say
And then, there was something about his
grin or something about his eyes or his voice,
for Miss Ames said, "All right"
Fine, sister Where will call for youo
At what time2"
"Half-past seven. At the Professional Wo-
mans Club
The Professional Woman's Club. Is that
where you hang out? Goodnight! Well, at
that, suppose it's a little more ris-kay than
the Y.W.CA. All right. kid I'll be there"
He left Miss Ames staring aghast at her
typewriter. What in the world had she done?
And what was she going to say to Miss
Trimble9
What she did say was, AFTER all, he's new
type to me. I'm curious"
And Miss Trimble who, secretly, would
have been thrilled if Mr. Walsh had asked her
to dinner said But. my dear, you don't
know how he'll act"
Surely, you don't mean he'll - he'll get
fresh, Agnes?"
"Oh. no, said Agnes. Il can't imagine any
one getting fresh with you. Priscilla" -
(Which was dirty crack if there ever was one)
But l mean don't know how he'll act

Maybe I'll be able to show him. And, oh,

glaring grammatical errors. such as between
you and l. ."

may be the beginning of a wonderful romance"
