The rdophy. of a Pi&sident r' Is curio relatively unimportant, but curiously - Interesting, to know that the most taciturn president this country ever bus had was born on the noisiest day of our. national life. On July' 4. 1873, when flre-cruckers were tipping and booming through out the land, Calvin Coolldge first opened his eyea In the hill-town of Plymouth. Vermont. Some biographer are loath to re spect the privacy ot even bis first tew hour on earth. They tell a story, which never hue been verified, but which has gained no little cir culation. They any his nlcknume of "Silent Col" dates back to those first moments on earth. It seems the very young Cal had been crying lustily. The more he cried the more difficult it became for his father to sleep. The family phy sician was of no help and neither was a solicitous mother. All anyone could do was hope for the best. Finally they noted that the baby's eyea had become riveted on the only decoration on the walls, a portrait ot William the Silent, the great Dutch statesman. They brought the picture closer Then, as R. U. Washburn, a biog rapher notes, "peace came to that household and to Its mother. The child studied the face and the fea tures ot the portrait and then, plac ing the end of one of his small fore fingers upon the mouth of that great prince and the other upon one of hit ears, be, too, was content and happy, and ho, too, slept, and peace overwhelmed that small house and that small family. "From that hour ha then became etnd has since continued, "Calvin the Bilent." And Calvin Coolldge the Silent fie has remained. To those who have studied his uncannily successful ca rear from 189, when he was elected to the city counclWof Northampton, taasaachuaetta, until he assumed the presidency et the United Btntes, It Is this grim economy of words that fMclnataa. But there Is no doubt In the mind of anyone that the president's grantte-Uke exterior is but the out growth of his eorty environment. He Is the typical New Englunder. The house in which he was born snd brought up le In the Oreen Moun tains. It overlooks a wide sweep of valley and Is Just across the street from the house now occupied by hi father. When Coolldge was twelve, hit mother died, and the boy went to live on "Grandfather Coolldge's" farm s short distance sway. There la noth. Ing pretentious about Plymouth. People there live by the swoat of their brows. ..The winters In that section are long and cold and severe. In a wny they are Isolated, but this isoluiion OniV serves to harden them, to make them mors Independent, more dour knd self-reliant, ' 'When Coolldge was six he went to ibe dlstrlat school at Plymouth Notch. Here he learned the three i'R's." Even then he was dilTeieni from the rest. He did not mingle. When school was out he would hurrv home to work. He was alwsvs on time and his lessons always were The First Story on the Lif Day at Glandale F. S. Jones, representing the Loekwood Motor Co., spent the day at Ulendalu, Spsnds NlgK Here F. S.

Ills teacher in those days will tell you Calvin wasn't an Inquisitive boy. He rarely asked questions. He al ways seemed to know. From the district school at the "Notch." young Coolldge was tent to a preparatory school at Black Itiver Academy, In Ludlow. Each woek he would return home to Ply mouth and give nn account of his school life. This was. socially, no different from the earlier days. He was the same thoughtful, quiet, serious-minded boy. All Now England boys know how to hunt, and young Calvin wasano exception. Hut he rurely. If ever. took his rifle. He had an aversion to killing. This Is closely connected with his early, rigid, religious training. He was taught not to kill and to him this meant all living creaturca, In cluding wild animals. A deep religious feeling and con viction Is strong In New Knglunders. and the entire life ot Calvin Coolldire is based around thnt. it la apparent In every sin-ech he has made since becoming a national figure. The president was chrlBtoned John Culvin Coolldge. but., It. wasn't long before he droptied the first name, some soy so as not to cause confusion between the names of his father snd his own. Since Coolliifre became nationally prominent iKirticularly since his election as vice 'president persons of the same fumily name have been busy tracing their genealogy. The family originally came from Kngland In that country one rinds the name, mentioned from time to time since M'Jh. 1t seems that one John Coolldite. born In Oxford. England.

Not satified, he bought more property. His name appears rather frequently after tnat and shows hs was elected a select, man or councilman many times. That be was a man ot education Is evident. He was used freely to wit ness deeds, sign wills and Indorse other legal documents. He left con siderable property and a kvrgs family, though It Is not known how many sons and daughters. Ills descendants appear frequently. One was a former. Another tried brs hand at carpentry. Others were sob diers, one serving, it is believed, Id Kl.ig Philip's War. At least obs Jonncd the vestments of his church. The grandfather ot the president was named Calvin Oalusho Coolldge. There Is also mention of a Carlos Coolldge, who was governor ot Ver mont in 1849. The president's Immediate forbears were decidedly Inconspicuous, as measured in present day terms. They were a quiet lot. They were for tha most part storekeepers or farmers. In fact, there appears to be a distinct gnp socially between several groups of the family. One branch became rather wealthy and some say "looked down" on the other branch. It M probable, too, that the less wealthy group, from which the president enme. was just as independent aa the other. Gulusho, the grandfather, was I farmer. He lived literally from crctj to crop. Ills son. the president1! father, became a storekeeper, but al various times served aa deput sheriff, constable and state assessor. He also served In the Legislature, both branches, and takes his title ot "Colonel" by virtue of being on tha staff of Governor VV. W. Stlckney. Coolldge's mother, who died when he was a boy it IS. was Victoria Joseph Moor. Ills father married nguln. the second time to Carrie Q. Brown, who died In 1920. In his boyhood, Coolldge was al ways girl-shy. He never danoed. It Is related, and seldom talked. They tell a story about his son, John. Hut mother wanted him to go to dancing school. "Did father go to dancing school, when he was youngT" asked the lad. "No," replied his mother, "but that Is no reason why you shouIdn't-"i "WelV.John said, "father seemed to do pretty well without, learning to, dance, so I guess I won't learn, either." The first touch of sudness, so often associated with his serious face with drooping mouth, crept into the life of the president Just after his gradua tion from, the academy. He had de livered the class oration and waa homeward hound with happy thoughts. He was met with the news that his beautiful sister, Abi gail, had died. The father had been devoted to the girl, who guve much promise.' She taught school when but twelve years ot age. Now that she had been taken awnv. Colonel Coolldge seemed to , draw closer to Calvin. Ho had dedl rated his life to the boy, for in him rested all the hopes of the Coolldge fundi". Appear Tomorrow. agricultural college, on of the , party said they did not.
