his head slowly as his political rival
drew near, smiling slightly. The
dramatic moment which had been an
ticipated with such deep interest was

smiling broadly, asked Taft if he had
a good day. This display of friendli-
ness on the part of the two candidates

answer. Then Taft laughed and the
applause increased
