ing for him. It Is, therefore, a pecu-
liar pleasure to join with this bunch
Of Minnesota boosters In seeking to
put Senator Harding over. in tho
greatest gift within the power of the
people. Being a clergyman, I have
been constantly asked by my friends
ut the college commencement In Mich.

city, Of which Mr.. Harding is a mem.
Der. l asked him and a group Of other
men to make some Sunday evening
addresses. ! do not remember much
that Senator Harding said at that
time, but l do remember very distinct
ly the words with which he closed
his address and which have stood all
these years as outstanding elements
of his character to me. He closed the
address by a quotation from the Pro-
phets, IN which he said, And what
doth the Lord thy God require Of thee
but to do Justly and love mercy and
walk humbly with thy God Justice.

In all these years stood as foremost
characteristics Of Mr.. Harding's life
