1919. Mrs Charles E. Hughes ac-
companied Justice Hughes in his cam
paign of 1916. But it was Mrs Hard
ing who last week set standard for
bands.
Likes TO Meet People
Every time the train stopped at a
station-for a speech, for a two-min-
ute Handwriting, or for water for the
engine-Mrs. Harding was on the OBJ
servation platform with her husband
or on the ground meeting the crowd.
Nor is it just exactly politics. either
She just wants to meet people. She
dearly loves Gro IDS and admits X.
There wasn't a minut of the trip, APP
parently, when the candidates wife
wasn't enjoying the action of the
fight. There was non, of the element
of seclusion which might be expected
of the expedited first lady of the
land. She was just one oflthe people
and apparently as much interested in
the crowd as the crowd was in her.
Usually the men on a campaign
special begin TO grumble and com
plain after the first or second day
of a trip. But when Mrs Harding
said goodbye to the western trip at
Parsons Sunday morning and started
on the last lap to st. Louis, she seem
ingly held the same keen interest in
the fight as at the beginning of the
trip.
During the run between towns, Mrs.
Harding often left the state room of
the private car and entered the parlor
section to meet the local celebrities.
She talked politics and was both
good talker and a good listener-a
rare combination-even among men.
Does the trip tire you ?" asked a
Kansan as the special slipped out of
Wichita Saturday morning for the
long, hard run thru Kansas and Okla
hona.
ooh, no. love it, she exclaimed.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1920-10-13

1T is simply immense. Crowds al
ways interest me and 1 don't believe
l would ever grow tired. There is
just one thing that disappoints me-"
And that?'
Wanted to Shake Hands.
ct can't meet all these people.
wish l could shake hands with every
one of them. 1t is so very interesting
and it means so much to just feel that
you know them and have touched
hands with Them
A few minutes later the train
stopped for a brief two minutes at
Mulvane-named for the father of the
Kansas national committeemank Mrs.
Harding was outfon the platform with
her husband. She was smiling and
bowling to the crowd. Senator Hard
ing reached over the side of the rail
TO shake upstretched hands. Mrs.
Harding did the same to the hands on
the other side of the rail.
Many Personal Greetings.
The train started before half of the
crowd had received a personal greet
inG.s
'Isn't it too bad" said the-wonaan
who next March may become the first
lady of the land. Il am SO disap-
pointed we didn't get to shake hands
with every one"
Most women would have fled be-
fore the crowd which sought to meet
Senator and Mrs Harding at the Lee
Huckins hotel in Oklahoma City. 1t
was such a countless crowd of men
and wOmen-sometimeS 1T seem ed
there were more women than men.
Thousands of them, apparently, came
from off the crowded streets where the
candidates party had driven only a
| few minutes before.
She Never Gave Up.
But Mrs. Harding never gave up.
/ She was shaking hands and smiling
when called to dinner with the party
| in a private dining room.
| Politics? Maybe Yet Mrs. Harding
enters into it with an earnestness and
apparent devotion that is most i'm
pressive. Without seeking prominence
and retaining every element of wo-
manly traits and characteristics, Mrs.
Harding goes into the campaign APP
parently as she states-because she
| loves it. And a woman not truly in
i the spirit OF the thing and anxious to
meet people-her people-would quit
after the first attempt. But seven
stops on the day'sfrun neither lessened
her zeal to shake hands nor erased
the smile on her face.
I Many Clever Women.
| There are some clever women in
midwestern state politics. But Mrs.
Harding can qualify with Senators
lCapper and Curtis or other mere men
as handshakers. She can give lessons
| in meeting the multitude and winning
votes for her husband. And she does
MT seem to half try. Certainly she
must "just love it,
