[ Omaha Girls, Smith College
Students, Recall Calvin
ii Coolidge, Jr.
The nation’s distress at the great loss Buffered by President and Mrs.
Coolidge, In their eon, Calvin, Jr., has a particular poignancy for the group
of Smith college girls here who so often saw young Coolidge, while he was
a student In Northampton High school, which Is Just across from the Smith
campus.
"He used to pass my house every morning on his way to his classes,”
said Miss Josephine Schurman, who was in Smith a year ago. "He was so
upright, carried himself so well and had such an unusual amount of dignity
for one so young. We thought It very fitting he should have been a presi
dent's son.”
Miss Dorothy Dahlman and Miss Marlon Booth remember him on the
night he end his father came to Northampton from Boston after his fath
er's election to the vice presidency. It was a “town and gown” night, with
both the Smith girls and the Northampton citizenry assembled with flaring
red torches at the Hotel Draper to watch the Coolidge faml'y arrive, which
they did after a considerable Interval, In the George MeCallum limousine.
Doth the boys, all thought, shpwed the poise and composure which charac
ters d their father's action.
Miss Dorothy Sherman tells that Calvin, Jr., was working In the tobacco
fields east of Northampton when the news came that hla father had been
made president. "We used to bicycle past the Coolidge home all the fall and
spring,” said Miss Sherman.
Miss Onalee Mann and Miss Marian Howe are others who have seen
Calvin, Jr., many times.

a girl takes too much upon herself to
help the man she loves In every way
possible? I nft"n wonder if that is
one way of gaining happiness. Home
cases seem to prove this and others
discourage 'me, for the man in ques
tion tires of too much attention and
runs away. Please tell me what you
think. BARBARA.
Happiness la seldom real unless It
1» shared by two persons or more.
But if the man doesn't reciprocate the
love you have to shower upon him.
Why should you he so eager? If you
begin hy being grateful for a man's
love, then you save a safe found, lion
fc>r love and marriage. It must he
sh'are and share alike basis to Insure
real Joy. The best way to help a
man you love Is to be yourself In the
finest manner possible and to expect
nothing but the best from him. Your
faith In him will do more to help him
than will any criticism or Interfer
ence. To believe In him is to work
tor him.
C. S.i There are no certain rules
for double weddings. The clergy
man decides upon the procedure of the
Service. If two sisters ere to be mar
ried, the father usually gives them
both av/ay. but In going up the aisle
he would have the elder on his
arm, while uncle or brother would lie
with the younger. Each groom hns
a best man, each bride an attendant.
The bride’s gowns could be made
alike and the bridesmaids' gowns In
harmonious colors.

“My Husband’s I.ove”
v_/
Why Lillian Explained Her Request
to Madge.
With Lillian and me, because of
our long intimacy, It Is generally
"masks down.” We never control
our surprise or other feelings as rigid
ly as we do before other people.
Therefore, I did not attempt to sup
press the astonished stare I gave Lil
lian at her amazing announcement
that her reason for wishing me to
go to dinner with the man who had
been her husband for so many years
was—in her own words—"to find out
what Harry is up to."
She returned my gaze steadily.
"I know'," she said, with a note of
apology, rare to her. •‘This is some
thing I have no right to ask you, a
job I ‘ought to do myself If it is to be
done, but—frankly—I do not think
Harry would tell me. In fact, I
know him well enough to know that
you are the only person on earth who
can get his confidence.”
Her eyes confirmed what her lips
had told me long ago that she be
lieved the feeellng Harry Underwood
so often and so theatrically had pro
claimed for me was a genuine emo
tion. Surely, however, she did not ex
pect me to gain his confidence be
cause of that advantage and then be
tray it to her!
“No, indeed,” she said, as if I had
spoken my thought aloud, and I
mentally saluted her psychic powers
as I often had done before. "If you
can get him started talking, you can
persuade him that it won t do any
harm for me to know about It. Oth
erwise, of course, you could never tell
me. But I have great faith in your
powers of persuasion, where Harry
is concerned."

v Harry Is Date.
She smiled wearily, and I thought
I detected a suspicion of bitterneps In
the smile. Even though she did not
cars for the husband who had treated
her so cavalierly, even though all the
affection she had to give was In the
possession of Robert Savarin, she was
feminine enough to feel chagrin that
she must depend upon someone else
to get the Information she needed.
Suddenly she came up to me and
put both her hands on my shoulders.
"Dear girl,” she said tenderly. "I
know I am asking a very difficult
and delicate thing of you. Yet It
isn't as bizarre as It appears. Harry
will be sentimentally flamboyant and
theatrical, no doubt, but you know as
well as I that he will never be un
manageable. You will have his con
duct entirely In your own hands, and
I have no fear of your ability to
handle any situation.
“As for the Dicky-bird's reaction
at the outing when he hears of it—
well—I think he has nothing what
ever to say. If he shows symptoms
of emitting any yelps, just send him
to me. So give that Puritan con
science a dose of paregoric, my dear,
and enjoy the dinner as much as you
can. There's no one can order a din
ner, you know, better than Harry.”
Was there an unconscious note of
regret, of wistfulness In her voice?
Hastily and Injudiciously I Inter
preted It.
"I wish you were coming with us,"
I said.
She shrugged her shoulders as If
she were shunting some troublesome
memory.
"Well, I don’t,” she retorted
brusquely, end then with a glance at
her wrist watch, eho added con
cernedly:
"I wonder why Harry Isn't back.
He snld fifteen minutes, and he al
ways Is the last word In punctuality,
especially when there are a pretty
woman and a dinner engagement In
the offlng."
“Are £ou sure we didn't misunder
stand the time?” I queried. "He said
he was going to change to evening
clothes, and the time he named seems
so absurdly short. Besides, where do
you suppose he has evening clothes
or a place to ehang?e"
"So Doubt He Has.”
"He'd carry moonlights on the
running hoard, and dress behind the
closed curtains of the car, if he
couldn't find anything more conven
lent,” Lillian answered laughing.
"You forget that he Is an old trouper.
But I'll wager he has a room In a
hotel or apartment somewhere sround
here, or he wouldn’t have made so
decisive a promise."
“He has!” I wondered If I had ut
tered the words aloud. Then be

of Lillian's fare, I decided that I
had made the exclamation mentally.
Suddenly there had flashed Into
my memory the description Harry
I’nderwond once had given me of
the pawnshop around the corner
from the apartment, to the proprie
tors of which he had directed me to
go with the scarab he had given
me If ever I should have need of
him. The place evidently was a
headquarters for him, and what
more natural than that he should
keep a room and a change of cloth
ing there?
I felt that I had the answer to
Lillian's questolon. but without Harry
Underwood's permission, I could not
tell even her of either the scarab
or the person* to whom he hart told
me to show It In any emergency In
which he could aid me. So for the
derided assent I substituted the In
nocuous:
"No doubt he has, and you know
there might be a dozen reasons for
his delay.”
