TAFT AND HIS COFFEE
. On the wings of the Portland
press comes the interesting news
that at breakfast Saturday morn
ing President Taft cooled his
Coffee by blowing on it, at it or
Over it but the news is too
meager in detail. Thelfremark- lo-ardimr the contest ar.fi its m
able fact. that the President is
the first to secure a cud of hot
toffee in Portland seems to have
escaped the attention of the
paragraphers who, absorbed "in
the pucker of the Presidential
lips, recorded only the fact that
he blowed. They even forget
to mention whether Mr. Taft
found it necessary to blow with
force, or whether a soft-pedal
blow answered. And what about
the time necessary to cool the
President's coffee thus? Did he
consume one second or ten min
utes in blowing his coffee? The
v public would be glad to know
also whether the President blew
his coffee while it was in the cup
or whether he found it neces
sary or advisable to pour the cof
fee into a saucer and blow it
there. Did the President lean
far over and blow or did he raise
the cup or saucer daintly, even
iauntily, to his lips and blow in
a generally acceptable manner?
Did he blow with a hissing noise,
or is the President such an . ex
pert coffee blower that he is able
to reduce the temperature to the
proper degree Fahrenheit with
out making any noise? Above
all, did the Presidential smile
come off as he blew his coffee?
The Portland press," which is
reputed to get all the news even
days before it happens, should
be careful to get all the news
when it does happen. Since the
Rose City papers saw fit to men
tion this incident of the Presi
dent's visit - to Portland, they
'Isjiould have given an anxious
public all the details. The Ore
gonians who cool their coffee by
the same means adopted by the
, President desire to accomplish
the result in the most acceptable
fashion and would be glad to
follow the Chiefs Executive's
lead but how can they unless
the Portland press arises to the
emergency and give, even at this
late date, the neglected detail?
While the great dailies of Ore
gon's metropolis are about it
they might also tell ' us what
color tie the President discarded
his green one for. Is it true
that he puts his left sock on
first?- Does he take sugar in
his coffee, and how many lumps?
It would be interesting to know
the brand of tooth brush he uses
and whether, he ever used- a
saftv

really has a great opportunity
here, for an anxious following
awaits in sin agony of suspense.

thanks for even the meager, fact
that the President did actually
blow his coffee.
