tired but happy President-elect OF

today at his green-painted home On

would not have had II otherwise, for
he enjoyed every minute of IT. Also
Mrs. Harding. Al midnight. when
informed OF the time, she exclaimed:
"Oh. I thought 1t was only about
10 o'clock. %.
Election day and his birthday
marked the beginning of a new epoch
In. the Senator's life. An hour after
he had issued his first statement to
the American public, he and Mrs.
Harding went to his campaign head
quarters next door, and there, In the
glare of intense lights, read addi-
tional returns and congratulatory
kilograms while photographers click
ed their cameras.
CALLERS At {: A. NJ.
Until early today neighbors came
with the children to express con-
gratulatiohs. and invariably the
President-to-be greeted them by their
first names and made them feel as
comfortable as old shoes. At a. IN.
callers were going and coming at the
Harding home.
Senator Harding frankly expected
to win, but he did not expect such a
landslide. That was a happy surprise
for him.
Today he was busy reading and an
swering messages of congratulation
which flooded his desk from all parts
of the country. He was also inter-
ested in further election results which
were furnished to him by special press
