nation will approve. He does not step
into the Presidency with the inten-
ton OF making his Will prevail IN
the nations affairs beyond a certain
point. His conception OF the Presi-
dency is the reverse OF President
Wilson's, according to those who
know him best. Harding believes
that the Office is largely an execu-
tive one anG that Congress, not the
President, Is the channel through
which public opinion should express
itself II this analysis made by his
close friends Is correct, Harding, as
President, win be inclined 10 lay back
and permit Congress TO shape the ma
tion's policies, using his own powers
only 10 carry the expressed wishes OF
Congress into effect. Ihis Is his
theory, but whether the difficulties
OF practical politics will permit him
TO carry It out only time can show.
Harding has an ability, which he
often reveals TO those close 10 him,
OF standing back and taking stock
of himself. On these occasions the ex-
! treme simplicity OF the man stands
out. q! is attributed in part TO his
simple early lie.

the swimming pool at Caledonia,
where he moved as small boy.

account in another way too. Mrs.
Harding, before she was married, gave
piano lessons to boys and girls IN
Marion. During their courtship
Harding often brought his cornet
over and played dud.s, with the fu-
