Who Challenged Radicals in His Recent Victorious Campaign. .Says Little of His Accomplish ment—or of Anything Else. AQI'IET little man sat calmly be- i hind his desk . in the State ' House of Massachusetts und j listened for three-quarters of an hour while labor representatives ex- , pounded upon the advisability of j permitting the patrolmen of Boston ■ to unionize. Gaining confidence from ! the quietness and attentiveness of j their listener the labor representa- i lives became more vociferous as j they proceeded and finally threat- j ened a strike of the police force if he did not accede to their request, j Throughout the harangue the man i behind the desk moved scarcely a j muscle. Not once did he interrupt, j and his \isitors had ended several moments before he spoke. Then he politely inquired: "Well, gentlemen, have you said everything you care to say?" ; Being assured that they had Jin- ( ished. he arose and still quietly re- j marked: I "Very well. All T have to say is ' this: I.aw and order will be main tained in the Commonwealth of J Massachusetts. Good-day." Coolidgc a Quiet Man The interview took place some j weeks before the notorious strike of j Boston policemen. When the walk out occurred, riot held the city for j a little while—but only for a little ( while. Then "law and order" be- j gan to be maintained, and the quiet I little man of gentle speech became a | national figure. He was Governor! Calvin Coolidgc. Republican, whose ! firm stand for Americanism won him j the congratulations of the Demo- i cratic President on the occasion of j Organ Recital and Illustrated Lecture on the History of the Organ Fifth St. Methodist Church Tuesday Evening.

I Coolidge is not much of a talker. J He writes better than he talks, it is , said—and he acts better than he { j does either. He is one of the quiet- . ' est men in Massachusetts, and has j 1 been called one of the coldest. But : I his friends deny this. They admit he J J is reserved, that emotionalism is as , noticeably absent from his makeup | | as is passive submission to radical- j j ism. but they deny that he is cold. I i And they speak right out in meet- ; j ing when the subject of Coolidge's, , honesty is mentioned. Bom July I "Cal. Coolidge will giY'e you a ( square deal." a Massachusetts Deni- \ | ocratic leader told the Brooklyn i Eagle. "It won't make any differ- j j ence what party you belong to. If ■ he says he is for you, he is; and h 1 1 will keep on being for you. If he is , against you. he'll tell you so; and , ! he's stay against you, too." Recognition of this angle of his ;■ , character was responsible for his! : popularity in Northampton. Mass., ' I where he made his entry into poli- ■ j tics, and where he gained the ! ; soubriquet of "Honest Cal." Born in , Plymouth. Vt., in 1872. he entered ' ' life with a New England conscience, j ! And no man born on the Fourth of I •July, as was Calvirt Coolidge. could •veil escape being a rip-snortin" ; i American. Patriotism was his i birthright. • I i Coolidge hung out his shingle as I ja lawyer in Northampton shortly j J after his graduation from Amherst | J College. In 1899. when only 27 years I I old. he was elected to the City ! | Council, and from that time mount- j I ed step by step to the office of Gov- • ernor. Front a councilman he be- 1 came a city solicitor, and then a • j court clerk. His party began to no- | j tice him. and in 1904 he was made . chairman of the Republican city : 'committee. In 1907 he was sent to 1 the State Legislature. Two terms of that and Northampton elected him j , mayor, and theu sent him to the j ■ State Senate for four terms. Won on His Nerve j By that time the name of Cool- | • idge had ceased to be known in ] Northampton alone. All of Massa chusetts had hegun to hear of hiin, I and in 1915 his party nominated him | for Ueutctiant Governor. He car- j ried the election by a plurality of 1 52,00h. The following year he was 1 re-elected by a plurality of SO,OOO. I Massachusetts Republicans by now had learned that "Honest Cat" Cool idge, in spite of being a quiet man. j was a vote-getter of some attain- ' ments. and after one more term as • I.ieutenant Governor, he was pro- j nioted to Governor. Last year his 1 plurality for Governor was only 17.- j 000. but this year he swamped his : opponent. Such is the political history of this 1 man C'ool'dge. He stands four-square j for Amer'eanism. which he has ' proved to be a pretty good thing to stand for. Some Americans had be- ! gun to be just a wee bit timorous at mention of radicalism and Bol shevist tenets. Governor t'oolidge 1 proved that in Massachusetts Amer icanism still is popular, and. as peo- j pie are very much the same throughout the United States, po- ! litlenl leaders and newsDaners prao- ! tlcn'lv have ceased to talk of "red i peril " ("oolidge rose higher than any political party. Massachusetts Republicacs admit. He won by what i (Vnrr® Piitnllo peptelv terms ••'•rvels" ard wbt William A'len r 3 ll by a "shorter and uglier I word." r,-< dgc So"* Vsdilnetnn Tfut what of Coolidge, the man? j HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH His democratic life iu Northampton probably best illuminates this ques tion. His home there is a duplex, ; which he, his wife and their two sons occupy with another family. On t the rare occasions last summer when he had a chance to run down from I the statehouse, he could be seen out on the lawn in shirtsleeves and sus penders pushing a lawnntower or chatting with his neighbors. Or per j haps it were better to say listening to his neighbors chat, for Calviu I Coolidge is no more loquacious in ' private life than he is in the Gov- ' ernor's office. A story is told of a visit he made J . to Washington some months before j the name of Coolidge had ever been i j heard of by many statesmen of the I ; national capital. He was accompa- ' i nied by u group of friends, who i j were ever watchful to play on his j ) lack of emotion. They took him up • | the steps on the west side of the j Capitol, and there pointed out to ■ I him one of the most impressive ' views of the city. Coolidge gazed a ! j long time at the beautiful buildings j t before him before anyone spoke, i Then one of his friends inquired:! "What do you think of that. Cal?" j t Without change of expression, Coolidge replied in a placid, color- : less tone, "That is a view that would | arouse the emotion or any man." ! ■ But there was a twinkle in his eye as he said it. for this stoic Coolidge j | is not without his sense of humor, j j a humor none the less enjoyable i : from being dry. Decided to Tell "Father" , Going back to his early days in j Northampton, there is another story! .related of Governor Coolidge. While j in Amherst he had won a medal i.i a prize essay contest in which stu-' j dents in colleges all over the land 1 competed. When he went to North ampton a member of the law firm I j under which he first worked, bap-! pening to hear of the honor, asked i 'his young associate: "Did you really win a medal in j competition with boys from all over! I the country?" t "Yes. sir," replied the young man,; | with some embarrassment. "Well, this is something like, j I Where's the medal?" j Coolidge fished the medal out of; ! his desk. | "I suppose your folks were pretty proud of you?" his friend inquired. ] ; To which the lad replied: ! "Well —er —J don't think they; know. 1 haven't told them about it. I But maybe I had better tell father." j I Coolidge doesn't talk much about : his accomplishments even now. He) j doesn't have to. His friends do that j j for him, and down at "Washington ; i tiere are some who already are men- ' j tioning his name among possibilities I for an office higher than that of; • Governor of Massachusetts.

For cent urles ovrrv man whose system craved u day off has been confronted ly the example of the l-usy bee ami ho has been put to shame, and. what Is worse, put to work, thereby. Every man who would "loaf and Invite his soul" has been sternly admonished to "go t.o the ant, thou sluggurd, consider her ways and he wise." Both insects are frauds. They have been exposed.' It is useless to exhort the hcnetielnry of "otlum cum dignitato" to elevate his part of hu manity 10 the dtzsy altitude of the Insects. They have been Tound out. Aesop and Solomon were imposed upon. They were not scientifically trained observers. They thought the bee and the ant set. laborious ex amples that human beings ought to rise to. The Insects kept up this humbug for a great while, but they can do so no longer. We know ail about them. From Hampden County, Massa chusetts, conies a demand for a ton and a half of sugar "to feed starv- | ing bees." Didn't the flowers bios- ' soni last summer? Certainly they 1 did. Then why did not the bees pro- j vide honey for the coming winter? j Because they are not busy bees, j They loafed. Instead of gathering I honey all the day from the flowers ; of the field, they idled away their time around puns of sugar—sugar extracted by machinery from Cuban cane and refined by the sugar trust. They laid up nothing for the winter because they expected those pans of sugar to be set before them daily. And what did they produce? j Honey? Nothing of the sort. They! just transformed sugar from tiie pans to their hives and gave it a little flower flavoring to enable un principled farmers to practice com mercial fraud upon the public. This "busy bee" does nothing that he or she, or probably it. can get out of. it is necessary to supply this monumental humbug with a comb, with the hexagonal cells stamped upon it hy machines; And then it is necessary to supply it with imported sugar to put into its combs. Even the most rest-loving man could do as much as that. ' The ant has been studied and his ! | true character exposed by Lord Ave- ] 1 bury and Henri Fabre. We know I | what his habits are.
