GOOD NEWS.
HIS FATHER RECEIVES NEWS
Marion, Ohio, Small City Of $1,000
People In Central Part Of state
Wild With Joy That Their
Neighbor Is Honored.

MARION, Ohio.-This little central
Ohio city OF nearly $4,000 people went
wild with JOY when it learned that one
OF It's citizens. Warren G. Harding, had
been nominated for president by the
republican national convention.
Several minutes before it was an
nounced officially at Chicago that
Harding had been nominated Marion
started celebrating what it considered
sure thing. Factory whistles were
blown, church bells doomed and
chimed and Mr. Harding's friends and
neighbors gathered on the streets in
excited, joyous groups.
No one was at the Harding home
to receive the news. The house, one of
the modest dwellings of the city, was
dark
Mr.. Hardings father and sister, who
live here, were the center of enthusi-
astic groups of townspeople.
The father, DR.. J. P. Harding, q
physician, received the news of the
honor to his son on his 10th birth
day. A sister. Abigail Harding teaches
in the Marion public schools.
Mrs. Harding Proud Of Husband.
Caught at the hotel to which he
rushed from the Coliseum after his
nomination, Senator Harding made no
formal statement, but declared he was
very happy" and deeply grateful to
his friends"
The republican nominee showed
plainly his citation when he emerged
from his rooms with Mrs Harding to
face battery of camera men.
IF you want to make Mrs Hard.
ing look pleased" said the man on
whom the republican party had just
conferred the great honor in its gift,
tell her something about the price
of millinery coming down."
There was a burst of laughter in
which Mrs. Harding joined and the
camera clicked lively accompani
ment as the photographers adopted
the suggestion.
Mrs. Harding was beaming with
happiness. Asked for some comment
upon her feelings as to the distinc.
ton given her husband by his fellow
republicans, she said:
II am tremendously pleased, OF
course, but l think my husband is
worthy of this honor and 1 am con.
tent to be in the reflected light"
