Cooks, chambermaids, laundry wom en, butler and pantrymen 20 in all are provided by the government at a cost of $30,000 a year and there is a housekeeper who has been In charge of the servants since tho administra tion of former President Tuft. Pre vious to that time a steward was iu charge. Only the expenso of the personal servants which a new president and his wife may choose to have accom pany them to the White House is borne by tho chief executive. Mrs. Harding has retained the services of Inez McWhorter, her cook, and a chauffeur, but sho found at the White House four cooks retained by the gov ernment and four chauffers. The mntter or supplying the Whito House tabic may not prove as simple for all food purchased whether for the private tuble or for state functions must be paid out of tbe pocket of tho chief executive. Caterers to the White House usually are selected by the housekeeper unless tho "first lady of tho land" desires to follow particular preferences which may previously have been formed. President Harding Has Appointments Worth $100,000,000 WASMNOTOV. Mar. 5 Calvin Coolidge is tho'fitst Massachusetts man to hold the office of vice-president since Henry Wilson served in tho sec ond Grant administration nearly, half a century ago. ills advent Into office adds to the prominence of his state, in national government affairs for it is regarded as almost certain that Sena tor Henry Cabot Lodge will be- again chosen as republican leader in the senate, and Rep. Frederick H. Gillett as speaker of the bouse.- ' ' V- ''' Should Mr. Gillett succeed himself.. a Massachusetts man will preside dver each branch of congress, a most un usual coincidence. More unusual still is the fact that both Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Gillett come from the samo. con gressional district, Northampton, tho home of the vice-president being in the same district as Springfield, the hofiie of the speaker. ' Both men are grad uates of Amherst college. Vice-President Coolidge Is entering upon his first service in the field of national politics., but, for! 20 ,j.cars hf, has boon aotlve in the politicul service of his state, rising from membership in the council of bis city 'to governor of the commonwealth. In Borne respects Mr. Coolidge is a fignre strange in American. public life,, being taciturn to a degree nnd appar ently shunning tho spotlight nnd the glamor which usually surrounds high public officials. -To his most intimate been a member of the federal power commission. . .loshua W. Alexander, , after, two years service as secretary' of com merce, will go to his old home at Gnlll tan, Missouri, to resume the practice of law and, as he says; to "do a' little farming on the side." William B. Wilson, another of the original Wilson cabinet officers, has accepted appointment to tho Interna tional joint commission, which has to do with disputes arising between tho United States and Canada, with a sal ary of $7500 a year. friends he Is Wnownl ns "Silent Cal" it is re'latod'in Illustration of this char acteristic that a personal and political friend who had conferred with him In his executive offices at Boston without receiving more than monosylnblcs for answers finally quit the office in dis gust, exclaiming as he came out: "By George, I'd like to be that fellow's stenographer." Probably the most attractive part of Mr. Coolidge is his home life. Ever since bis marriage. 15 years ago, to Miss Grace Goodhue, of Burlington, 't., a university of Vermont graduate whom he met as a school teacher in Northampton, ho has. lived a quiet, modest life, most of the tlmo In the shadow of Smith college in a house which ho has rented for $32.60 a month. ( '. "Save, no matter what your salary may be," has always been his motto and, as he has enjoyed beyond the income earned in public office only meagre returns from his law practice because pf pressure of public duties, be has' been obliged and content to live simply. There are two boys In their early 'teens, but all do their bit, even to mowing the lawn.. - "During Mr. Coolidge's official resi dence at Boston he and Mrs. Coolidge lived In apartments at a hotel, as thoy will do hero in Washington, while tho boys have been away at school. In dress, too, Mr. Coolidge has been not extravagant, although always immacu lately attired and not given to use of the threadbare, whatever tho popular Impression to the contrary may be. His coming to Washington means I the presence of a man, who, his friends say, personifies the best of American 'standards, not given, much to social I life, perhaps, but a thorough student, a hard worker nnd a clear-headed, solid American. President Harding's One Lucky Charm Is His Printer's Rule WASHINGTON. Mar. 5. Up- wards of 50,000 appointments to public offices carrying salaries aggregating inoro than $100,000.- 000 a year are to be made by President Harding. Some of these were made today, many others will be announced during the next few months while still others will bo mndo as the terms of present democratic office holders expire These include nearly a dozen 4 ambassadors whose salaries are 4 $17,500 each, many ministers at $10,000 each, assistant secretar- les, federal judges, attorneys and marshals, , customs collectors, members of various government boards and commissions and post- masters by tho thousands. In contrast to tho huge patron- ago roll of Mr. Harding are tho appointive perqulsitles of Vico- President Coolidge, whoso Inline- ! dlate appointments comprise only his sccrotary, clerk, page boy and a prlvato telegraph operator. Their salaries total $7,700 a year. The vice-president himself rc- colvos $12,000.

WASHINGTON, Mnr. 5 What ever else he may be. Warren G. Harding always classifies himself as an editor, publisher and prin ter, proud of,. his professional ac complishments and training. His luck-charm and most sacred pos session Is a printer's rule, carried In his pocket wherever he goes; and his close friends say ho would rather set a stick of type any day than grant an audience to an am bassador. . .
