’ l PRESIDENTS ARE 'HUMAN
The predicament in which Presi-

agents ought to be a lesson to those
folks who have been so busy creat-

"the Coolidge myth."
Had it not been for these over
Iealous boosters of the President.
he would have suffered nothing at

ple do not expect anybody to be 100
per cent perfect. even when he is
. President. They can easily overlook
,kss error. because they know that to'
arr is human. But in the case of
irresident Coolidge. the people have
been told so often and so long that
he could never possibly do anything
that was not right, they had come
in accept the claim as true. Con-
sequently when his humanity did

Broadway. separated by many

Baggy knickers and gaudy hose
are attested by scores of bare-
headed youths who parade the street
during the afternoon. The obvious
fact that most of them could not
tell a golf-club from a pogo-stick
makes no difference.

Finding Out Why New
England Does or Doesn’t
Buy Its Own Products
The studies being made by the
Research Committee of the New
England Council of the sale in New
England of New England products
sold in competition with similar
goods made elsewhere, will be ex-
tended to Vermont this week. Mr.
William 8. Robinson. one of the en.
gineers in the field for the commit-
tee. will call on retail establish-
ments in several cities in the state
to gather information the commit-
tze is seeking. and will go first to
Waterbury and Bridgeport.
Mr. Robinson will inquire par-
ticularly as to the retail sales of
New England shoes and knit goods
in Connecticut. The purpose is to
find out the attitude of Connecticut
consumers toward New Enland
products in these lines, as reflected
by their actual purchases. These
facts will be gathered impartially.
and without any reference to state
or sectional loyalty. in order that
the committee may learn the strong
and weak points of New England
products from the standpoint of
consumers. The information thus
obtained will be turned over to the
New England manufacturers, and it
is expected to prove helpful to them
in gauging the relative importance
of such factors as price. style and
quality. in the marketing of their
goods.
If in a given community or store.
the proportion of New England
products in stock is unusually high
snort will be
made to find out from the store
managers just why this is so.

WONDER CHILD’S MOTHER TELLS
HOW TO GUIDE
CHILD’S STEPS
BY ANNE AI'STIN
The struggles, hopes and methods of
the mother or the latest child
prodigy are told in a series of sis
exclusive articles of which the fol-
lowing is the first—Editor.
Everyone is inclined to smile. in-
dulgently. but pitylngly. at very
young mothers. The}: are so full of
theories about motherhood and
child-rearing.
But in looking back over the
twelve very full and glorious years
that I have been the mother of the
child whose mind is the brightest
that has ever been tested. 1 can-
not help coming to the conclusion
that my extreme youth—I married
just before I was seventeen and was
a mother eight days after‘ my sight-
ccnih bll‘IIlfIfl)‘-—Wfll the biggest fac-
tor in getting Elizabeth off to a fly-
ing start as a prize baby. both phy-
sically and mentally.
For youth has boundless courage
and lofty ideals. .
Judged by adult standards. my
marriage was an insane thing. I
was undersized physically, in very
uncertain health, and I was working
my way through college. I married
a boy of nineteen who was also a
college freshman. working his way.
We married in .Angust. and en-
rolled for our sophomore year in
Baylor University at Waco, Texas. in
September.
_ Prayed fur Child.
We had less than a hundred dol-
lars between us. yet I began to pray
for a baby. I am sure my intense
desire for a child was the underlying
motive in my marriage. When na—
ture decided to let me have my way.
I kept right on praying. but I was
rather timid about asking for bless-
ings for my baby.
I did not pray that the child
should be pretty! I asked only that
she—I wanted a girlwsliouid bi born
with a sound mind in a sound body.
and that i should be able to core for
her.
Elizabeth was born September 21.
1913. and from the very first i knew
that my prayer had been alisvvrred.
She was a strong. perfectly lirnlthy
baby and within a few weeks demon—
strated conclusively ihat she was at
least normal mentally.
After losing only one semester
from college, I resumed both my col-
lege studies and the. work by which
I made. my share of the expenses. I
dashed home between classes to
nurse the baby. studying the next
lesson as I did so. From the first I
was mad about my baby. and al-
thollgh I had no time to rock her to
sleep or sing to her-w! can‘t sing my-
way»! dreamed great dreams for
her.
To Be Best Friend.
I had been lonely; she would be
my best friend, the girl chum to
whom I could tell secrets and con-
fide ambitions. She should have
everything that. as a poverty-ridden
hitamely little brat. i had missed in
ll 0.
Above all. she should have perfect
health—I studied Dr. Holt's baby
book more than any text book used
in my college course——and she
should have, perfect mental and’epir-
itusl freedom. -
From the very first I recognized
her right to her own individuality;
she was a person whom I intended
to make my beloved friend: she was
never Just my baby. to be ruled by
me.
I believe I have accomplished all
these things for her. and I shall try
to tell other mothers how I did it.
There were no tricks. no theories. no
magic about it. It all applies as apt-
ly to the child of average intelli-
gence as to the super-bright child.

THE STORY OF PLAGUE.
The earliest records of the human
race contain reference to plague. It
is mentioned in the ancient Sun-
skrit and Egyptian writings and the
fifth and sixth chapters of the First
Samuel. in the Bible.
In this. it is well to remember that
in the text is an untranslated Greek
word~emcrrhod—whicli means bu-
bo or swelling. The word mouse in
this text should have been translat-
ed rat.
The Philistines of that day recog-
nized the role of the rat in the pro-
duction of the diaesse in man. for

they made golden images of the rats
(or mice as the text reads) in the
hope of appeaslng the anger of the
God of Israel, whom they thought
had sent this plague upon them be-
cause they had stolen the Ark' of
the Covenant.
Forty-Ono Epidemics.
Forty-one epidemics of plague are
recorded as having occurred before
the Christian era. During the. 1500
years after the birth of Christ. there
are records of 109 epidemics and
from 1500 to 1720 there are record.
ed 45 pandemies of plague. (Pan-
demic means spread all over the
world).
It is impossible to estimate the
number of people who have died of
plague in ages past; certainly hun-
dreds of mllll us. More than ten
million have led of plague in the
last 25 or 80 years.
The present pandemic of plague
apparently began in China. in 1894.
In 1890. India. Japan. Asiatic Tur~
key and European Russia were in-
fected.
In 1918 the disease spread to
Madagascar and Mauritius. and in
1899 it appeared in Arabia. Persia.
the Straits Settlements. Austria.
Portugal. British South Africa.
Egypt. the French Ivory Coast and
Portugese Africa.
Aboutdhe same time.the disease
appeared in Argentina. Brasil. Para-
guay and the Hawaiian Islands.
In Usitetlfitslu. -
In 1:00. the disease sppesred for
the first time In the United States-
in San Fransisco. .

Size of Packard Plant
Is Surprise to Editors
On Visit to Detroit
Recently when nearly 100 editors
from Latin-American countries were
in Detroit as the guests of a number
of motor cur iiiiiulifat-turing com-
panies they were much surprised at
the great size of the factory in which
Packard cars were built. They dis-
covered that the Packard factory ac.
tually was considered larger than
several of the well-known "produc-
tion" companion and that more men
were employed.
The editors visited one factory
which produces ten times as many
cars as are made by i'ackard and
lound that the plant was about two-
ihirds the size of the Packard fac-
tory. The reason largely is due to the
fact. that Packard manufactures
nearly everything which goes into
its car and that for the making of
a motor car of the quality of a.
Packard one of the very largest of
automobile factories is necessary.
Before the arrival of the party of
editors in Detroit one of the meni-
bers sustained a severe injury to one
of his legs. As a result he was un-
able to take any of the long walks
which are necessary in inspecting
one of the Detroit automobile plants.
He insisted. however. on accompany~
ing the others in it limited tour of
inspection of tho l'uckard fuctdry.
To make this possible a small eleco
irlc truck was fillTvl up with a
rocking chair and seated in this as
if en ti throne the editor followed
the others on their entire trip
through the body division. While
only one department was visited the
truck traveled more than a mile on
the floors of the factory where Pack-
ard bodies are built. painted. trim-
med and made completely ready for
mounting on chassis.
Folios Bergere Moving .

Everything is moving westward in

sic halldom. From the site near the
Grand Boulevards it has occupied
for more than forty years the Folies

other theatres toward the Etoiie. It
has acquired a new site in the Ave-
nue do Magrani and it purposes to
begin building this summer.
‘ Under combined American and
British influence. the Etoiie and
Champs-Elysees quarter is in a fair
way to become another Montmartre.
with its own theatres. cabarcts and
dance halls.
and on for 10 years. In San Fran-
cisco. the disease appeared several
times in epidemic form.
In.1914 it appeared in Now Or-
leaus: in 1920 in Beaumont and Gal-
veston. Texas. In 1904 it was dis-
covered that plague infection had
spread from the rats to the ground
squirrels in California and it has
been among these ground squirrels
ever since.

If you think. or your boy thinks.
that he should be a minister. it is
well that there should be a clear
understanding of certain iliincs.
It will mean Iliil'd work both day
and night. The world does not lived
ministers who have an 0‘EI'-d‘.‘\l'l-
oped root of laziness.
it will take uncommon ability. for
people in a community need to have
a minister who possesses brains and
personality as well {is goodness.
It will invohe long and careful
preparation. A short-cut to the min-
istry is to be avoided as truly as a
short-cut to surgery.
The chances are good that it will
mean comparative poverty rathrr
than considerable wealth. No man :
deserves to succeed, or will succeed,
in the ministry, who makes money-
gctting his object.
Depth of Purpose. .
' if your boy has not enough bruins i
to become a lawyer or ability enough 1
to succeed in business. then in tlic‘
name of religion, keep him out of
the ministry.
But if he, has enough robust man-
hood. cnough depth of purpose,
enough personality and power to
succeed in a dozen other cnlliligs.
then it is possible that he may be-
come qualified to be a worthy min-
ister of the gospel.
A boy \\ ho has not mischief
enough ever to do wrong probably
lacks life enough to do much good.
Adolescent ovor-pivly is no sign of
a (limit: (‘iill to this profession. The
normal rather than the abnormal is
a. favorable qualification.
A good healthy religious life on
the part of your boy is in large de-
gree produced by the example of his
parents. At any rate. in the long run
it will have its final influence.

Power to Help.
The salaries of preachers. like
those of teachers. are not large. It
is true that not a few men in our
country as a whole receive as high a
salary as ten. tWelvc and fifteen

These some men in certain other
professions probably would earn sev-

Most ministers have been able to
live with considerable comfort, to
educate their children and to pro-
vide reasonably for old age.
Our greatest compensation. how-

satisfaction; there is a. joy in the
work. a thrill in the power to help
people. a spiritual satisfaction in the

cannot measure. Happy the man

calling.
