EASY TO SAY, hard to do.” Easy to claim
everything for a cigarette; not so easy to give

Coolidge Finishes
500-Word History
c~'
A history of the United States,
500 words in length, and written by
the terse former president Calvin
Coolidge, is to be inscribed for fu
ture generations to read upon the
granite face of the Black Hills
mountain, Mt. Rushmore, near here.
The letters will be cut five inches
deep, and will be large enough to be
read miles away.
Geologists estimate the rate of
erosion on granite escarpment of
Mount Rushmore is an inch in 100,-
000 years, so that unless radical
earth changes take place, or future
progress decrees the removal of Mt.
Rushmore, the memorial should en
dure for more than 500,000 years.

Science Seminar which will be held

T. C. U. faculty and it made an
excellent impression on the audience
there. His lecture will not be spoken
