Show Week This "b ARTHUR EXUSBANB A Good President Comic Opera in the U.S. A. Hard to Pronounce The Parasite Crab Calvta Coolidge is dead la the prime of life. Every Amerlcaa deeply regrets his loss, and sympathizes sincerely wfth his widow and his son. They will find comfort In the reo ord that Mr. Coolidge leaves be hind' him a record ot public service that has put every American in his debt. Calvin Coolidge was distinctly an American President. His views on Europes debts were expressed, according to his custom. In tew words, they hired the money, didnt ttfey?" He was interested, as President. In the welfare of America, and in nothing else, allowing foreign countries to worry about their own troubles. He knew that the voters had not elected him to look after any country or any people outside ths boundaries of ths United Staten. Our noble country begins the new year with a report on "recent social trends, solemnly handed in by n research committee, supposed to indicate what we bare been doing, and whither we are drifting, filling sixteen hundred pages. One gem of purest ray serene," showing that what we need in this lower country is a submissive class that will bow down to its betters, will delight you. Here it is: Modern Ufa is everywhere complicated. but especially so In tbs United States, where immigration from many lands, rapid mobility within the country Itself, the lack of established classes or castes to act as a brake on social changes, the tendency to seise upon new types of machines, rich natural resources end vast driving power have hurried us dizzily away from the days of the frontier into a whirl of modernisms which almost - passes belief Yon will travel far before you find any more choice bit of snobbishness than that We havent any established classes made up of Americans that take off their caps, or pull the forelock when they see a black coat. We have men from Poland and elsewhere that have v built skyscrapers. Instead of being content to live in log cabins. We have changed "dizzily." from nothing at all to 'our modern civilization, and that Is what Is the matter with us. There should be another commie-ioto report that the Declaration of Independence should never have been signed, since it wiped out established classes or castes,, to act as a brake on social changes, and that Jefferson should have been put in jail for writing that all men are created equal - Senator Costigan, Democrat from Colorado, says there are twelve millions idle now. Governor Lehman says New York State will need hep from the government and it probibly will, like many other States. By the time the govern-"men- t ft "may finishes need help Itself. Our little depression" still going on, with prosperity just around the corner, is puzzling. It reminds you of a gentleman dragged to New York police station on a charge of vagrancy. Such gentlemen must be "booked," their name written down by the police sergeant After a couple of attempts, the police sergeant handed the book to the vagrant saying, "Here, you write lt The vagrant wrote G. Grungennettezieeaua. That describes our depression well. Mrs. Franklin Delano Roosevelt, soon to keep house In the White House, Is writing a book on what women have done in tbe past and what more they can accomplish In the future. To tell adequately about the past would be difficult. To tell about the future Is, of course. Impossible. Fifty thousand or 1,000,000 years hence, when manual labor becomes unnecessary, nothing harder to do than press a button, you may see women twice as big as they are now, and men so small that their wives will carry them about In van, ity cases. That has happened In nature. The giant sea crab, of which Darwin tells you, la always female. You find her husband under one of her front flippers, about as big as a ten-cepiece. Hen In a few thousand centuries may be living a Ufa as easy aa that of the female sea crab's husband, no work but handing on genes, no more forehead than a shrimp. Bodlngton, of the Kansas City police know that a faithful wife la a precious posesslon. He went Into a gas station where two young gentlemen were holding up the proprietor, and said he was a policeman. The highwaymen beat him until his wife rushed In, pulled their hair, made them let go. He killed one and shot the other. In physical courage, especially when those they love are In danger, wo men are more courageous than men. There Is no wild animal that a mother would not defy to save her baby. gtfll a th rtmntm tutir laU O. M.
