Crary was hostess at a theatre party Tuesday evening in honor of her sister, Mrs. Frank Dag gett. After the theatre a delightful luncheon was served at the Crary home. While the nation as a whole and th epoliticians in particular have been wondering about the attitude of Pres ident Coolidge the executive has been gathering the views of leaders in all walks of life at White House confer ences. For several weeks letters signed by secretaries to Mr. Coolidge have .been going out saying that the pres ident, desiring to get first hand in formation regarding the state of the nation, wishes to have the views of “men of vision and experience like yourself.” It is suggested that the recipient of the letter name a time- when he can conveniently come to Washington, so that an engagement can be arranged. As the result of these letters Mr. Coolidge has been receiving leaders and laymen from every walk of life, ‘‘dirt’’ farmers, bankers, and other business and professional men, labor chiefs, religious workers of all de- nocinations and creeds, and repre sentatives of every line of industry. Many of these callers are invited to have luncheon with the president, who has let it he known that he con siders this a part of his program of self education. This program of the President’s has been compared tyitli the gathering of “best minds” of the nation at Marion during the months \before the late Mr. Harding assumed office. Mr. Coolidge has said that since congress will be called upon to act upon his views and suggestions he intends to let the congress be first in receiving his opinion of affairs upper most in the public mind. A CORRECTION In an article of last week, relative to the decision of Judge John J. Greene in the petitions for the return of liquor to G. F. Underwood and. Andrew Streng, our second line in the heading read \Liquor Illegally Seized Returned to Claimant.” This line as handed to the printer contained the word “not” before “returned” thus making an absolutely different mean ing to the line. A reading of the news item will convince anyone that a mistake had been made In the heading as the judge ordered the illicit liquor and other articles of a like nature destroyed within five days by the sheriff, and. do doubt, his orders have been complied with before now. Mr. and Mrs. Edward Ilirshberg and Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Ilirshberg were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hirshberg of Fairfield Monday. A w Noble Ambition The ambition of this institution is to jus tify the confiednec of its customers, to be trusted because of its good judgment, its faithful observance of duty and its financial responsibility. Conferences with the officers of this bank are cheerfully given to those who desire seasoned and well-reasoned advice. ---------- Mrs. B.
