A PROCLAMATION.

To run PEOPLE or seaming

Whereas, in the death of Warren Gamsliel Harding.
the inscrutable wisdom of Divine Providence has deemed
it best to take from the nation, a wise statesman, a loyal
friend and counsellor, a devoted husband, and a. President
whose life work was unselfishly dedicated to the welfare
of his country and its people; and

WHEREAS, Calvin Coolidge, President of the United
States has designated Friday, August 10th, as a day of
mourning and prayer, and a day on which the sorrow and
grief of our citizens should be fittingly expressed:

NOW THEREFORE, I, Charles 1". Mills, acting mayor
of the City of Norwalk, request and call upon the people
of Norwalk, to observe Friday, August 10th, as a day of
devotion, mourning and prayer, and I recommend that from
twelve o’clock noon of that day all business and worldly
affairs ceaic, and that all places of business, amusement
and entertainment be closed for the remainder of the day.
I furthermore recommend and urge that at the hour of
the funeral of our beloved and lamented President, the
people assemble in some place or places, and humbly and
reverently pay tribute, homage and respect to the memory
of the great and good man, whose death has been our ir-
reparable loss, and the memory of whose lofty ideals and
simple Christian life should be one of our greatest treas-
ures.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my
hand and caused the seal of the City of Norwaik to be
affixed, this 7th day of August, A. 13., 1923.

CHARLES F. MILLS,
Acting Mayor of the City of Norwalk.

 

 

 

 

 

THE CGOLIDGE BOYS

CAMP DEVENS. M’assu Aug 7.—
John Coolidge is a. “regular low."
That is the unanimous verdict of the
buddies of the President's eldest son.
whom they have come to know since
he entered training ,at the Citizens'
Military Training Camp here August
1. A bit reticent and retiring. but
withnl a good mixer, young Coolidge,
who inherits his father's blondness,
and who will be 17 years old on
September 7. has entered enthusiasti-
cally into camp activities.

At firs! ho avoided recognition.
He arrived in camp unostentatiousiy
aboard an army truck which carried
station with forty
his

He says that naturally his father
will do his best in his new office.
and he hopes that his best will be
good enough. "or course. it is a
great honor." he said, “but it's dad's
duty and he'll face it and make
good."

Coolidge is enthusiastic about
training and military camps. “I
like the camp immensely." he said.
“There is a wonderful bunch of fel-
lows herc, all clean minded. fun
making boys, who like a good time.
but still recognize the serious side
of life and tackle the more import-
ant problems like men."

Accustomed to hard work by rea-
son of vacations spent on the an-
cestral farm in Plymouth. Vt.. and
another vacation passed in laying
gravel on a road Job. young Coolidge
does not find the camp life, arduous.

He confesses to a. fondness for
baseball and swimming and is one
of the catchers on his' company
team. He also admits that he likes
Northampton better than Washing-
ton and thinks that at the ‘con-
clusion of the training period. .on
August 31. he will probably stay
there until neg-embers ., Academy
opens for the fall.term September
nineteenth;

other young Americans. Since
father was elevated to the Pres-
idcncy. however he has been be-
sieged by photographers and inter—
viewers. .

An inevitable question has been:
"How does it feel to be the son of
the President ?" And young Coolidge
confesses that he doesn't feel a bit
different than when he was the son
of a Massachusetts Senator or Gov-
ernor. Cordial and courteous to all
who meet him. his principal fear
seems to be that because he is the
President's son he may be held in
awe rather than as a good pal.

There were several persons aboard
the boat and among them was a

going to jump overboard, but she
was restrained by other occupants
of the boat.
