A Good President<\/b><\/p>\n
Dwight Morrow, the father of Anne Morrow Lindbergh, once held a dinner party to which Calvin Coolidge had been invited. After Coolidge left, Morrow told the remaining guests that Coolidge would make a good president. The others disagreed. They felt Coolidge was too quiet, that he lacked color and personality. No one would like him, they said. <\/p>\n
Anne, then age six, spoke up: \u201cI like him,\u201d she said. Then she displayed a finger with a small bandage around it. \u201cHe was the only one at the party who asked about my sore finger.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd that\u2019s why he would make a good president,\u201d added Morrow. <\/p>\n

Mamie Adams always went to a branch post office in her town because the postal employees there were friendly. She went there to buy stamps just before Christmas one year and the lines were particularly long. Someone pointed out that there was no need to wait on line because there was a stamp machine in the lobby. <\/p>\n
\u201cI know,\u201d said Mamie, \u2018but the machine won\u2019t ask me about my arthritis.\u201d <\/p>\n
