Says He Didn’t Milk Her
But It Was the Cow’s
Fault, Not His.
Springfield, Mass.. Jan. 7.—Vice
President-elect Coolldge can milk a
cow, but he did not milk the one he
was represented as milking In a pho
tograph taken last July while he was
on a vacation at Ills father’s farm In
Plymouth. Vt., after his nomination
at Chicago. However, It was the
cow's fault and not the governor's.
In explaining the misrepresentation
to Horace A. Moses, president of
the Hampden County Improvement
league, who was his host recenUy,
Governor Coolldge said that that cow
was a creature of temperament and
Insisted on being milked Indoors. Tbo
picture released to the press last sum
mer showed the candidate in the ac
cepted position for milking, and ap
parently getting results.
"You see,’* he said, "she bad al
ways been accustomed to being milk
ed .Indoors and when 1 approached
her with, a pall and milking stool she
quite naturally and In accordance
with long established precedent,
started for the barn door."
It took several minutes of coax
ing before the cow would so fir de
part from the law and order of ber
ways as to stand In the barnyard
while the governor niude a pretense
of milking her. To really do so out-
of-doors was quite out of the ques
tion, he declared.

She Could Use Them
P. G. Wodeboose, the novelist and
wit. was talking shout the anti-tobac
co league. “They have taken our wine
and our beer away from us,” he said,
and they threaten to take away our
tobacco. The modern woman, how
ever, will block them there. An anti
tobacco friend talked so eloquently at
the house of a friend of mine the other
day that a young municipal reformer
rose and said solemnly: *My wife
gave me a box of 100 magnificent
Egyptienne cigarettes last night I
smoked one of them, hut I now see so
clesrly the evil of smoking that I am
going straight home aad throw the
rest Into the fire.’ The reformer's
young wife then roee la her tore.
Til ’go home with him.* she said, and
added smtUng brightly on the
assembled guests: ‘My Intention la
to rescue the ninety,and nine.”’
