HARDING LOSES PANTS
!, DIGNITY STICKS TO HIM
Held To Gulf Cottage Saturday
By Norther Hopes To First Mon
day, Though

WASHINGTON. Nov. ia pick
ed orchestra from this city will ac-
company President-Elect Harding on
his forthcoming trip to Panama. 1t
was announced today.
POINT ISABEL. Tex, Nov. l3 -
Kept off the Gulf fishing grounds ny
a cold norther and virtually ma
rooned on the land side by almost
impossible roads, PresdenJ-Elect
Harding remained at his seashore cot
tage today winding ap his vacation
week with a complete rest. He hopes
to get more tarpon fishing Monday
if the storm blows over and on
Tuesday expects to play game of
golf at Brownsville when he motors
there to meet Governor Hobby, of
Texas. He probably will remain there
Tuesday night and leave early Wed
nesday morning by train for New
Orleans, when he will sail for
Panama.
The president-elect lost something
on the first day of his vacation here
besides the biggest tarpon that has
been hooked in Lagunda Madre since
the Democrats got control in 1912.
He also lost his breeches!
The moving pictures will be used
to prove that Harding hooked the tar
pom and that only hard luck and a
soft line enabled it to escape.
'Hey. Lost My PantsF'
There will be no pictures, however,
to prove the story of the pants The
writer. however. takes watch and af-
firms that as the launch Julia B was
drawing away from Brazossantago Is
land, ready to take the distinguished
fishing party back to the mainland
the president-elect stood up in front
of the boat and called to the evident
alarm of the half dozen women pres
ent:
"Hey. | lost my pantsP'
1t was Immediately evident, how
ever, that the fisherman president-to-
be has more than one pair of pants,
for he had pair on and if he had, as
he proclaimed. lost one pair, then he
possesses at least two.
Senator Hale finally discovered the
missing presidential pants-khaki
overalls instead of trousers. They
were in a tangle of clothing in the
stern of the boat.
Dignity Is Natural.
1t might appear from the above
that Harding had lost also a third
something in the enthusiasm of his
outing here. that he might have lost,
or at least laid aside for the period
of his outing. the presidential dig
nitv that he must henceforth assume
in public.
But not so. Dignity and stateli-
ness are natural roles to him. He
laws them aside only with the effort
thet the ordinarv person requires to
put them on.
He is nor even among the closest
friends who are sharing his vacation
with him hala fellow well met while
they josh and indulge in horse-play,
