THE OLD HOME TOWN ' By Stanley Elect Them Coolidge and Dawes arc the Kcpublicnii nominees and they, 'are good nominees. President Coolidge has shown his sternness of character in refusing to approve issues where financial means to cany them out were not avail able, and his courage in this respect has drawn thousands to him outside of his own party ranks. Ceneral Dawes is the greatest business organizer the nation, has ever known and it was ho who went to Ger many to figure out how Kurope could get ly and permit Germany to begin paying on her war debt, lie did thn job and did it well and as a result Europe sees a ray of ligh today that she did not see before General Dawes went across the Atlantic. fhe pair suits most Republicans and the general pub lic flow waits with some anxiety the action of the Demo cratic national convention. There is apparently no doubt that sentiment all over the country 'favors returning Cool idge? as president, regardless of who is named by the Democrats. I lOMPNKXET t.,r -.in -rrri PVfd.AbU ftUKfeATD WA LOCKING, Uf FOR? THE NIGHT AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE Owe WF.f;. THE Wlfc-7 - Who Walks Now? 'Although in the downtown districts of our cities the sidewalks are stilt crowded with pedestrians, it is probably true -that walking has heroine an obsolete pastime in America. The rushing in and out of store.! in the shop ring districts isij't walking anyway, in the opinion of lovers of that form of' physical exercise. We have lost the feeling of leisure which in former days was so conducive to walking. Even in our motoring we seem to be possessed of the idea that we must hurry to get nomowheie although we may have no particular des tinution in mind. An Englishman who even during his visit to this country Bpeiit much time in walking, said of us that the inclines, in peiiodieals it-presenting the occu pants of automobiles reclining in luxury and enjoying mag nificent scenery did not depict us truly. That is not the way we cover the miles. , He was greatly' amused over Hie fact that dining his walking tours he was licuuently offered rides by motor ists ;. "they do not seem to understand," he, says, "that a man.on a walking tour is not in need of vehicular convey ance! They act as if toe best thing about walking is giving it up and having a ride." Obviously the automobile does not permit of sauntering. When the road is good, theie comes the irresistible im pulse; to make the most of it, which to nearly all drivers means anywhere from 2.r. to 10 miles an hour. And con sequently there is lacking Iho opportunity for quiet en joyment of the passing landscape; and lacking, too, is the inducement for reflection and restful meditation which walk-' lug, 'either by one's .sell or with agreeable companions, makes almost inevitable. In its own way motoring has it1 l-leasure, and on the whole I hoy are no less than those' if Walking. And perhaps in u.o stress of modern life it is only natural that we should have taken to the tin ill producing form of exercise. It is, however, an agreeable siirn thai in some quarters' pedestrianism is coming back into favor. Clubs and or-; ganiiatio:is which have this for their main pin pose ai" growing in number, and it may possibly be that the age old itustime'of walking will not be lost to us altogether.
