But if some one said to you, "What do you know about the following Presidents of the United States: John Uanson, Elias Boudlnot, John Hancock, Nathaniel Gorham and David B. Atchison? youd probably exclaim, Why, they never were Presidents of the United States! And therein you might be wrong, for there are those who soy that those five men should be included in the list of our Presidents, even though such a statement would have to be made with certain qualiflca tions. In the case of the first four, their right to be known as President la based upon the following facts which have to do with the evolution of the office of President of the United well-verse- d ' .

In proof of his assertion, Mr. Smith offers the following facts: ton, On November SI, 1781, th congres- sional committee on Arrangement of the President's House," consisting of Samuel Osgood Joseph Montgomery, and Edmund Randolph, introduced the following resolution In congress:. "Resolved, That the attendants of the President's house consist of one steward and such others as may be found necessary, not exceeding eight. A residence had been leased a few days previously as President Hansons home. The steward was required to deliver an accounting of expenses to the President's secretary each month and the President was authorized by a resolution to draw on the public treasury for the proper amount. after lie was referred to as the President of the United States. In view of these facts it seems that John Hanson, Elias Boudlnot, John Hancock, and Nathaniel Gorham are as much entitled to being called President of the United States as are any of the men from George Washington to Herbert Hoover who have home that title, and that in listing our residents, we should divide them into two Masses, those who held office under the Articles of Confederation and those who have held office under the Constitution. The right of David B. Atchison of Missouri to be Included in our list of Presidents Is a fertile subject for dispute. lie is called President for a and the whole question of Day, whether or not he actually was President depends upon whether or not a man can be President without taking the oath of office or actively administering the affairs of the nation. Atchison's Presidency came about In tlds way: March 4, came on Sunday. Technically, President James K.
