tions for future Presidents dad: lawyer or Judge
statesman or politician, merchant or stOrekeeper,
minister, skilled craftsman. Only FIVE Presidents
fathers have had other occupations than those
Andre,0 JOhnsOn's father worked as sexton, porter
and constable. William McKinley's was an iron
manufacturer. Warren Harding was the son of
physician. Herbert HOOper's father was blacksmith
and in the farm-implement business; EisenhOsOer's
was a mechanic and gas-company manager.
How tall Is he?
A mans physical appearance is undoubtedly
important in his political career, and possibly there
is Presidential Image against which we measure a
man when we vote for or against him. The typical
President is a tall man; only three have been under
ST.. james Madison was the smallest -SF,
100 pounds. abraham Lincoln was tallest -64.
In body type he is likely to be mesomOrphic (mus-
cular, athletic) or ectomorphic (thin), not endO-
morphic Chubby. But William HOsoord Tett, six
feet tall, weighed between 300 and $50.
The President has blue or gray eyes, His nose
is prominent; II Presidents have had long, thin
noses and eight have had large, wide noses.
Should he marry?
By all means encourage your youngster to take
wife. Only one President OGn,es Buchanan was

What's he do for fun?

As for spare-time activities, the
voters have favored men who enjoyed
manly sports. Riding and fishing rate
high; also golf, hunting and walking.
Teddy Roosevelt went in for jujitsu
and wrestling. CaIUin Coolidge liked
pitching hay. Rutherford b. Hayes
liked croquet.
How LONG DO you have to wait
before you hear your boy deliver his
Inaugural Address? Only two Presi-
dents Theodore Roosevelt and John
Kennedy have been inaugurated be-
fore age As. The most likely time is
between 81 and SIS, when II Presi-
dents were sworn in.
Until your son reaches that age,
it's up to him to prepare himself for
the job. One thing is all but certain:
there will always be a call for promis.

Five married more than once. The typical President
married woman considerably younger than he -
- on the average, FIVE years younger The First
Ladies' fathers have had occupations much like those
of the Presidents fathers In order Of occurrence
farmer, judge or lawyer, minister, banker.
How many children?
Having married, your boy should father mod
erately large family. OF the 80 married Presidents,
only FIVE were childless, and four fathered more
than six children. Your son will increase the odds
in his favor if he has more boys than girls Eighteen
Presidents had sons eight had more daughters,
and only two had even distribution. Putting them
all together, the Presidents have had 76 sons and
so daughters.
incidentally, urge your boy to stay near home
until he marries at least to come back to find the
girl Fewer than half the Presidents married girls
from outside their native states.
WHAT'S his job?
While waiting to be elected, your son will do
well to become lawyer. Twenty-fOur Presidents
practiced law before moving to the White House.
And all but three became politicians or statesmen
before ascending to the Presidency. CThe three
exceptions were famous generals: George Wash
ingtOn, Ulysses Grant, DsUight ID. EisenhOsOeT)
Your son will also increase his chances
if he writes and publishes book, as
II Presidents did before election.
