Warren was a good boy and he
loved his mother" the doctor said.
why do you know that for fifteen
years he sent her flowers every
Sunday morning. Even when he was
in Europe he arranged for flowers
! to be delivered to her.
when she died ten years ago he
did not lay single blossom on her
igrave-he's like that-believes in
showing folks how much he likes
them while they are living.
Before he was in school he
begged me to let him speak a
piece his grandma taught him. at
the last day exercises. That was
his first public address.
And" the old doctor added with
a chuckle. "since then he has been
speaking whenever ne had an audi
ence that would listen"
The old man talked for a long
time of the boyhood adventures of
Harding. He Is proud Of his son
and, as any good father would, he
thinks there Is no question about
his election, no matter whom the
Democrats nominate.

CARNEGIE MEDAL
FOR HEROIC ACT

K. A. Emerson has been notified
that the Carnegie Hero commission
has awarded a medal in appreciation
of the heroism of his son, Timothy
l.. Emerson, who lost his life in the
Snake river near Wawawai June %,
1918, in attempting to rescue
drowning girl, Miss Shelona Witter,
of Moscow, Idaho. The girl was
saved, but young Emerson and Cyrus
Milan of Lewiston, Idaho, were
drowned, and Carnegie hero medals
have been awarded to both.
The heroism of Tim Emerson's
sacrifice was all the greater because
he was an inexperienced swimmer
but did not hesitate a moment to
plunge into the river without
thought of his own danger, in his de-
sire to aid in saving a human life.
