It shows that while music rof a sort has charms to soothe the savage breast it has an opposite effect on President Coolidge. Mainly, the story is about John Coolidge's week-end vacation at Madison, where he is guest of Dr.

Glenn Frank, president of the State University. 51 John, it happens, brought a saxophone with him to the summer White House the same instrument he had played at Amherst. According to authenticated reports, the president's son lately has devoted hours to practice, specializing in current jazz numbers difficult even to experienced musicians. At first, the president endured the sax with a stoic fortitude. His fishing excursions down the Brule helped some, of course, and though he never quite paddled into a zone of absolute quietude, John's music was reduced to a mere sputtered, exasperated moan.

Somehow, though, the pampered trout on the Pierce estate became less responsive to presidential bait. They lolled at the bottom of their pools and Because he has mastered his particular line in every detail.

"Furthermore," he said, "youl'll only need that hat until September 15, and I'm going to need this voice for two months and a half." With that the Democratic nominee's speech ended. A prediction that Smith and Robinson would not only cary a solid South but many western states and the state of New York as well, was made by United States Senator Edwin S. Brous-sard in addressing the campaign at the Roosevelt hotel in New Orleans Thursday morning. Congressman James O'Connor, who also addressed the gathering, said that the Democratic party will not only carry the South but Massachusetts, Illinois and possibly Ohio. He said that conditions all over the country indicate a sweeping victory for Smith.

Governor Smith was praised as a self-made man by Mrs. Edward Pils-bury, a member the committee from the First District. "Al Smith is the 'most colorful candidate since Abraham Lincoln," she said.
