WASHINGTON, March 4.-A new
mistress reigns at the White House.
Florence King Harding to-day took
her place beside her husband as First
Lady of the Land. In her case there
were no formal vows to be taken, but
Il simple assumption of Office. With
ease she went through the inaugural
tion ceremony that symbolized her
transition from comparative obscurity
to international prominence. With a
rapt, proud air she heard her husband
take the oath in the shadow Of the Cap
itol. But her cheeks were flushed and
her eyes glistened with tears as she
turned her face toward the White
House. 1t might have been exaltation.
Or it might have been tenderness and
pain for the little house she had left
in Ohio and the quiet home life that
went with it,
If to-day's ceremony was the con-
summation of her dreams it brought
with it the inevitable ache that comes
with responsibility and radical changes.
She was 1lanked with the wives Of the
members of her husbands Cabinet. But
she stood out-slender. delicate, cour~
ageous, ready to face her problems,
eager to take over the domestic reins
from Mrs. Wilson, willing to share the
burdens that now fall on her husbands 8
shoulders.
She has been described as the ideal
helpmate. Her chance has come to
demonstrate it to the greatest of re-
publics.
Twenty-nine years ago last July,
against her fathers will, she married a
young man who was working day and
night to get out a small daily paper
and keep out of the bankruptcy court.
Yesterday she rose with him to the
highest Of Offices.
Womans Progress Evident
While the Inauguration ceremony
was quieter, less scintillant than in
the past, at every turn there was
evidence Of the change that has come
in woman's estate within the last four
years. The most feted person on the
floor of Congress during the prelim-
mary ceremonies was Miss Alice Rob
ertson, Congresswoman from Okla
homa. Across the room from her was
Miss Mabel Boardman, District Com
missioner. An interested spectator
was MISS Ailce raul, mead OF the WOm-
ans party and one of the leaders of
the picketing at the last inauguration.
Moreover, one of the high lights in
the Presidents address was his refer
ence to women in politics. He said:
with the nationwide induction Of
womanhood into our political life, we
may count upon her intuition, her re-
tinement, her intelligence and her in
f1uence to exalt the social order. We
count upon her exercise of the full
privileges and the performance of the
duties Of citizenship to speed the at
tainment of the highest state"
Mrs. Harding rose early on this. the
greatest day of her life. She drove
with Mrs. Wilson to the Capitol in the
car directly behind the President and
the Presldcnt-elect. The two women
presented marked contrast as they
were whirled side by side through the
streets. Mrs. Wilson wore a small sill
yer turban, furs and navy blue suit.

Publishers Extend Greetings
On Inauguration of Edito,

Among the messages of fclicitation
sent President Harding yesterday was
one from T. r. Williams, president of
the American Newspaper Publishers
Association, conveying the congratula
tions of the profession upon the in
auguration of newspaper editor and
publisher
A telegram sent to Woodrow Wilson
by the board of managers Of the Amer
lean Bible Society expresses the wish
that the strength and hope of the
Scriptures may be with you all the
days The society thanked him for ad-
dresses and letters which helped to
place thousands Of Testaments in the
hands of soldiers and sailors during the
war.

Shoe Workers Wonder
If Harding Wore 'Em'

BROCKTON, Mass, March d.
"Did he wear emf"
Seventy employees of a shoe
factory here to-day eagerly
scanned newspaper accounts of
the inaugural ceremonies at Wash
ington to find an answer to chat
question.
They were solicitous about the
fate of a pair of fine dress boots,
"Size 10-D, wide, with cloth tops
and seven fancy buttons each,"
which they had presented to War
rem G. Harding to be worn at his
inauguration.
The operatives put two weeks
work on the boots.

painted a halo Of dollars about the
head Of Rogers HOrnsby.
The Trading Hornsby' story has
put him on a unique pinnacle Of base
ball. Inside tips that the Card star
was about TO be traded for a whole
flock OF players, or that he was being
sold for fabulous sums varying from
$4,000 10 100000 has doomed his
stock skywards.
The rumors reached fever heat last
season. when the Giants were coming

a star as iiornsby to put them under
