Coolidge writes, "My father
was a good trader." He tells
l,ow his father bought a house,
blacksmith shop, barn, several
other buildings and two acres
of land for $75, and sold one
barn for' $100. ,

After being well on tho 17th
with a drive and brasnfe he lost his
three when his putt from ten feet

the home hole was In a bunker but
he thrilled the crowd with a typi

niblick shot dropping less than ten
feet from tho pin. Ho studied the

nine inches for the four and took
five.
"It was tough out there In that
wind this afternoon," said llagcn
as he squeezed his way through
the crowd between tho green and

bad this afternoon as it was this

NEW ORLEANS, May 10. VP)
The old south clashed with the
new yesterday in the Louisiana
division, United Daughters of the
Confederacy, over Abraham ' Lin
coln and southern homage to tho
memory of tho emancipator.
Tho daughters- of 'the southern
cause yesterday declined to adopt
resolution- of Mrs. Jefferson

pressing regret that Louisiana
school children ma do a trip early
this year to another state and re
cited "Lincoln at Gettysburg" at a

Many in embers did, however,
frown upon tho trip and a com
promise motion was adopted urg
ing discouragement of Lincoln's
birthday observance in southern
public schooln.
Lincoln, the "Christian gentle
man" and the effect the resolution
would have on arousing sectional
feeling entered Into the spirited
discussions.
We all know that Lincoln was
not a great man," said Mrs. W. H.
Kernaii of New Orleans. "Wo know
he was not the fine Christian gen
tleman ho is said by partisan his
torians to have been. How can
southern children learn this truth
of history if they go around paying
homage to his memory?"
Mrs. F. P. Jones of Lcesvtlle, re

true southern mother would have
suld 'no' when asked if her child
might give a recitation at a Lin
