THE PRESIDENT SPEAKS.
At last the political enemies of Presi
dent Coolidge have secured a declaration'
of policy from him. Sipcfe’he i)e<%ihe*
President Sir. Coolidge has been untalk
ative and it is probable that lie would
have remained so if it had not been for
liis annual message to Congress. There
was no way for President Coolidge to es
cape this duty and in the message he
gave friends and enemies alike something
to talk about and something to fear.
When Mr. Harding died Mr. Coolidge
stated that as far as possible he wirs go
ing to follow the Harding policies in his
administration. This determination is
shown in the annual message, for prac
tically every policy advocated by Presi
dent Coolidge was also advocated by Mr.
Harding and those not in favor with
President Coolidge were not in favor
with Mr. Harding.
Four important matters were discuss
ed by the President in his address, along
with many others of not so great import
ance. The bonus, reduction of taxes, re
organization of freight rate structure
and participation of the United States
in the World Court were the greatest
problems discussed in the address and
all of them except the bonus, trecehed
support from the President.
There are many who will believe the
bonus will defeat Mr. Coolidge in* the
next. Presidential campaign. In fact,
there are those who believe the President
will not be nominated by the Republicans,
so great is sentiment in many quarters
for the bonus. Officers of the American
Legion have announced that the bonus
will pass oven over the veto of the Pres
ident and should this be done at the
present session of Congress it is not
probabft* that Mr. Coolidge will be nom
inated.
On the other hand there are many per
sons who declare reduction of taxes is
more important than the bonus. There
can he no reduction and a bonus at the
same time, they contend, although Sena
tor Johnson, in a recent Chicago address,
declared that both are possible.
President Coolidge lias spoken now.
ami regardless of the merits of his poli
cies his address will bring forth com
ments from all parts of the country. He
can no longer hide behind his silence for
he has spoken and his friends and ene
mies alike know now what he favors, and
he is going to he tlie center of much
criticism and much praise as the result
of his address.
The real strength of the Legion and
other veterans’ organizations which fav
or the bonuß will be brought out now.
The might of the veterans' vote will be
tested now and after all this may prove
to be one of the most interesting out
comes of the President's address.
EVERYDAY GOODNESS.
Alice Paul, prominent feminist poli
tician. occasionally wys soiiie things
that are worth impressing oil the peo
ple's minds. For instance: “A man who
doesn't smoke or drink or gamble, who is
true to his wife and always gives first
consideration to his home, is looked up
on as a paragon of virtue. But the wo
man who doesn't drink or smoke or gam
ble. who is true to her husband and con
centrate* her attention upon the welfare
of the home, —why there are so many
millions of such women in this country
that.ypu wouldn't thipk of their achieve
ments as noticing.'’ v
THlt’a an iufetfflttng fact. Bight and
virtuous living is the daily practice of
such 4 large majority of the women that
it is taken as a matter of course and at
tracts no attention. It is the unusual
which' attracts attention and for this
reason a few sensation mongers and re
formers would make the world believe
that the women as a whole are going in
for smoking, drinking, gambling and
'other vices that will soon bring them
i “down to the level of man.” There is
some vice among women to be sure, but
it is still limited enough to be sensation
al and as long as this is the case, there
is no danger of the woman losing the
high place she now holds.
TAX CUTS NOT MADE
AT SCHOOL. EXPENSE
Education Week Credited For the Vic
tory.
'Washington, Dec. 6 (Capital Xe\v6
Service). —With the cry for tax reduc
tion and retrenchment of expenditures
heard from end to end of the nation,
jit was expected that as new town and
comity budgets were made up, schools
would suffer, for it is most often Ini the
school house that the first cut is felt.
But such has not been the case. Dr.
John J. Tigert. United States Commis
sioner of Education, says:
“The worst is over and the schools
have won. The move for drastic re
trenchment. which included school bud
gets, is growing less and the agricultural
sections of the West and South are re
covering slowly from financial depres
sion, I am getting reports from all
sections of the country that bond issues
are being voted to improve the schools
and efforts are being made to increase
teachers’ salaries. f For example. Rapides
Parish, in Louisiana, which I visited
recently has voted a bond issue of sl,-
25(1.000 for its schools. This is a good
record for a rural district of the South.
"The South lias made comparatively
greater progress in its schools than any
oijjer section of the country in the past
two or three years. It is rapidly catch
ing up with other sections. The in
terest of southern states has been thor
oughly aroused, and they are setting
about to solve problems of administra
tion and financing which formerly Were
ignored.
"The Western states have adopted,
tot a great extent, the desirable plan
of large state appropriations; fir ex
ample. S."O for each school child. This
is an excellent way of reducing the dif
ferential in educational opportunity be
tween the country and the city child.
It means advantages for rural schools
•which the local population are unable
to furnish, through lack of funds.”
Bishop .James Atkins.
Charlotte Observer.
A great and a commanding figure in
Southern Methodism was remove ! in the
death of Bishop Atkins. He was a
graduate of Trinity College and received
his ordination papers when lie was but
22 years of age.’ Entering into the ser
vice of tile Church at that early age.
he had known no period of idleness
through all the years that fol’owed.
Bishop Atkins developed into one of the
greatest educational agencies in the
history of the Methodist Church, begin
ning hiss career as an educator at the
old Asheville Female College, ti which
lie returned after four years of activity
as president of Emory and Henry Col
lege.,, He was not only a man of' great
service, but of greater accomplishment.
The Southern Methodist University at
Dallas, stands as a monument to his
energy and unflagging purpose: Lake
Junaluska. the center of the great
Met hoilist Assembly grounds was a
creation of his mind and determination.
In the editorial chair and in the pulpit
he deve’oned powers that moved the
people. He served his Church with a
zeal that lias been seldom surpassed and
the record he leaves is that of one of
the greatest bishops of the times.
Express Safe, and SS.(MM) Are Taken.
Norfolk. Dec. (?.—A ’one bandit to
night. robbed the express ear of the
Norfolk and Western Cannon Ball train,
operating between Norfolk and Rich
mond. of a safe said to contain SB,OOO
in currency- Tiie robbery occurred as the
train was pulling out of Wavcrly, Vir
ginia. about dusk. The bandit boarded
the train at Wavcrly and proceeded im
mediately to tlie express ear. “Have I a
suitcase in here”? he asked J. H.
Stevens of Richmond, the express mes
senger. Stevens stooped over to examine
the suitcases in tlie ear. When lie lifted
his head he was looking into the muz
zle of a revolver. Binding, gagging and
blindfolding the messenger, tlie bandit
shoved a small iron safe through the
door of the moving ear. Stevens was
found in the ear by Conductor Thornton
as the train was entering the yards at
Petersburg. The bandit was ;T white
man and wore no mask. He was describ
ed as a “foreigner.”
A schooner tied to a dock at South
Amboy, New Jersey, recently was being
loaded with powder from railroad cars
when a fire started on board ship. The
flames spread to tlie powder and caused
an explosion. Tlie freight cars on tlie sid
ing were set on fire and the glare of the
flames attracted hundreds of motorists
who headed in that direction. A dozen
automobiles became jammed into a
passageway beneath the railroad tracks.
More freight ears of powder exploded,
killing three of the trapped motorists
and seriously injuring about twenty
others. This is a result of the habit of
running to fires.

PRESIDENT OK A. A. U. VV.
BACKS EDUCATION BILL
The University Women Are a Unit
Behind the Measure.
Washington. Dee. (i (Capital News
Service). —Tlie newly elected president
of the American Association of Univer
sity Women stands squarely behind the
tlie Education bill, as do all the members
of the great orgmiizntions which she
heads. Dr. Aurelia Henry Reinhardt,
president of Mills College of California,
new president of the A. A. U. IV., says <
of the Education bill in particular and
education in general:
"The problem of college women is to
justify their training by applying it in
ii practical way to national questions.
This problem lias two aspects—-one faces
the home, the center of national life,
the other the national program, economic
and political. Efficient home manage
ment loads inevitably (o thoughtful con
sideration of tlie second aspect. The
American Association of University
Wonie nexpects to become an increas
ing measure a f mini where college worn
en can nicer together for discussion of
political tand economic questions, and
a means for making known their collec
tive will.
"Education wil'.. of course, remain al
ways the first interest of the association.
Just now its fiiembers are particularly
interested in the istiAly of thsj elemen
tary school child. We have taken-- a
firm stand for tlie creation of a sepa
rate department of education, with a
cabinet officer at it head. We do not
want to see education submerged in any
other department. We are not in favor
of including ii as a subordinate bureau
of the proposed department of public
welfare, and we will oppose such a move
when it comes before Congress.”
At tlie time of the recent eclipse of
tiie sun. September 10. along tlie south
ern coast of California, there were on
the State Highway 140 miles of auto
mobiles. packed closely together. The
i f-’. pant- were journeying from Los
Los Angeles to Sail Diego und Tia
Juana. Mexico, to see tlie total eclipse.
Traffic moved at six mi l as an hour and
1.000 arrests were made for cutting out
of line and endangering others on the
Torry Dines Grade, just out of San
Diego. Gasoline stations were drained
early in tlie day and fuel was Sold far
forty cents a gallon instead of fifteen
cents.
The greatest happiness that this world

I DINNER STORIES ”]
!A drummer said to a waitress bold:
i "My dear young lady, my cocoa is
cold.” , , .

“If the blamed thing is cold, put on
