Ties. Karly in life lie learned the dig
nity and necessity of work.
He was educated at Amherst co
lege. He was an able and industrious
student. It was during his college
course that he began the study ol
American politics. His conception of
this intricate subject then formed and
since maintained is that "there will
come out of the government exactly
what is put into it." He believes
that "politics is the process of action
in public affairs."
'At Amherst in his senior year he
won the first prize, a gold medal, for
the best essay on the principles of
the war for American independence.
This competition was open to the un
dergraduates of all American col
leges.
Admitted to Bar
After only twenty months" study of
law in the offices of Hammond
Field in Northampton he was ad
mitted to the bar. He thereupon
opened an office in Northampton and
at once gained a rating as a zealous,
broad-minded promoter of the com
munity's welfare.
Appointed by the supreme court to
fill a vacancy caused by death, lie
declined to accept his party's nomin
ation for election to succeed himself
and returned to the practice of law.
Calvin Coolidge entered politics ac
tively in his home town, Northamp
ton, in 1S99 when he was elected to
the city council. The next year he
was made city solicitor and held that
office for two years. He went to the
Massachusetts state legislature in
1907 and 190S. He left the legislature
to become mayor of Northampton,
holding that office two years. He
was then elected a state senator,
where he served four years, during
the last two years of which he Iwas
president of that body.
Governor in 1018
As governor, Calvin Coolidge has
advanced rapidly in the estimation of
the people of the state. He was
elected in 1918 for the first term.'
His re-election by an increased plur
ality was practically conceded when
the police of Boston left their posts.
After a night, of rioting, the gov
ernor took command of the situation,
restored order with state guardsmen,
destroyed evey effort of the police to
win their places back, ended for all
time the possibility of a police union
with an outside authority and faced
the electorate on the issue of law and
order.
He was re-elected by a plurality of
125,000.
Every State Cm Coast Shingles.
Portland, June 12. The District
Forester here has just given out the
results of a study which show that
Western red cedar shingles from Ore
gon and Washington are shipped to
every state in the Union. The report
shows that Minnesota is the largest
single purchaser of Washington
shingles, while California is the big
gest buyer of Oregon shingles. The
Middle Western states are very heavy
buyers while about eight per cent of
the total sales go to the Southern
states.
Oregon and Washington produced
6 1-2 billion shingles in 1919, or two
billion more than in 1918. The cut
for 1919 iwas less than that for 1916
or 1917, and far below that for 1909.
Western red cedar is the leading
shingle wood in the United States,
shingle manufactured from this
wood In Oregon, Washington and
British Columbia represented 85 per
cent of the total production of the
country. Shingles are also made
from cypress, white cedar, redwood
and yellow pine. Douglas fir shingles
were manufactured commercially in
1919, largely because of the scarcity
and high cost of western red cedar
logs.
Shingle production In 1919, like
that of 1918, was not normal. The
first quarter, following closely after
the Armistice, was quiet. Toward the
close of the second quarter the de
mand for Bhlngles became strong.
This, however, was colFely followed
by a car shortage that was felt dur
ing the remainder of the year.
Meantime, the price of shingles
advanced, more than doubling by the
end of the year. The cost of shingle
logs, labor and supplies advanced al
so; this taken in connection with the
other adverse conditions being unfav
orable for normal production, forest
officers say. The effect of the deple
tion of the supply of westen red cedar
is noticeable, Washington produced
8 billion shingles In 1909 as against
6 billion in 1919. This decline is
apparently due, the report shows, to
that fact that the supply of cedar at
the higher elevations Is not so large
as along the river bottoms and low
lands. The report Is authority for
the statement that in British Colum
bia, where fewer shingles have been
cut, production has Increased 300 per
cent In the last 10 years. Produc
tion in Oregon amounting to about
1-3 of a billion per year, has not
changed materially for Beveral years.

'depleted. The situation is most
unusual."
