DOES “CAL” MEAN
WHAT HE SAYS?
not choose to run for pres-
1928.” With this brief ex-
ion, President Coolidge
stunned the party leaders and
them in a quandary. .
There has been a great deal of
talk about a “third term” and much
speculation as what would happen
in the next national convention of
the Republican party, but it seemed
to be generally undestood that
President Coolidge not only could
have the nomination but would have
it without much doubt.
There is a great deal of differ-
ence between “I do not choose to
run,” and “I would not accept re-
nomination,” or if the President
wanted to make it especially em-
phatic, he might have said, “Under
no circumstances will I consider the
acceptance of nomination next
year.”
What is meant by the President’s
brief statement? Opinions differ,
but our guess is that the President
means what he says, that he does
not ‘choose to run”, but that if he
finds sentiment favorable, he
consent to run and will
himself at the right time. If that
guess is correct, then the statement
may be regarded as a ‘“feeler” of
the public pulse. The President is
‘lose observer and he understands
thoroughly: we know he
it when he says he does not
“choose to run,” but that doesn’t
mean that he will not accept the
nomination if it is tendered.

EXPLAINING EMPTY CHURCHES
A song in the old school
singing
books wailed most dolefully about
“parents don’t visit tthe schools.”
Several verses were devoted to the
fact that parents visited their neigh-
bors, their relatives, went to mar-
ket, but the eternal refrain moaned
“but parents don’t visit the schools.”
A companion song making its
moan about people who don’t visit
the churches should be written,
cording to recent research on
facts of church attendance.
Church membership has so fallen
off within a decade that the re-
searchers are reluctant to issue ac-
tual figures, believing they would
ac-
the
be too alarming. They do, however,
give causes. |
They mention the economic bur-
den of helping support
the lowered moral tone of the na-
tion following the World War, and
the trouble of transferring church
membership.
That last cause it not elaborated
upon, but there is more to it than
appears on the surface.
People do move these days. They
do not live, marry, rear
dren and die in the same
ity as families did when this nation
was an agricultural one.
Industrial jobs send
families flitting from one town
another. The inevitable feeling
that life in one place is
a church,
