C," was always worth hearing when In college, according tp a biograph ical sketch In the annual published in connection with the twenty- fifth reunion of the class ot '95 at New York 'in 1920, a copy of which .13 owned here by Nelson Klngsland, newspaperman and classmate ot the new president. The book contains the following sketch on Coolidge: , "Other folk may think that Cal vin Coolidge is famous because be hatfbeen a member ot the city coun cil ot Northampton, city solicitor for Northampton, clerk of the courts ot Hampshire county, member of Massachusetts senate, lieutenant governor ot Massachusetts, governor ot Massachusetts. , "We of 95 know that he is fa mous just because ho is Calvin' Coolidge. That Is why we used to listen so eagerly to him when he was in college, and why we made him grove orator In senior year. Whether on the Hyde Fifteen or at a boarding house table, or any where else, when 'C. C spoke he always said something worth hear ing. In senior year he won the medal offered by the Sons ot tho Revolution for the . best essay on tho 'Principles of tho War For Am erican Independence,' competing with undergraduates In all Ameri can colleges'. i "After leaving Amherst he stud- led luw in the offices ot Hammond and Field, of, Northampton and was admitted to the bar In 1897. In 1899 he entered upon his career In public lifo when he. became; city counsellor ot Northampton. . "Ha la a member ot tho Union and University clubs of lioston. "The fact that he has rlnou high in public office and that ho was at tho 1920 convention, demanded by many tor the position of president ot the nltcd States does not rest at all upon solf-secking ambition, for ho does not seek office, offices seok him. His courage In mautorlng tho. police strike In Boston Is only a part of his rock-ribbed Integrity of character that we all recognized when he was In Amherst twenty flvo years ago.
