CLIMBS THE QUARTER DECK
At the very start the President had
entered into the JOY of the day.
As soon as he came up on the Pres
ident's stand he looked up to the
high quarter deck" that had been
built above and upon which stood
Robert Lawrence, the organizing
director of Music Week who has so
splendidly put this great program
"across"
The President started impufsively
toward the narrow steps that led up
to this deck. Come up" Mr.. Lawr-
ence said quickly, holding out his
hand.
And up the President went, to wave
his hat TO the children.
And up came thousands OF tiny
flags, waving to the shouts of the
thousands OF children. 1t was a
thrilling scene.
Then some one asked Mrs. Harding
to join the President.
The First Lady of the Land hesi-
tatsd a moment, saying: "Oh, they
only want to see the President" But
then she, too. climbed the steep steps
and again a shout went UP as Mrs.
Harding saluted the children with all
the warmth and welcome that we are
learning to love in her many hospi-
talities in the White House.
/ think IL was Mrs. Harding who
pointed out TO the President a small
boy who would not let his teacher
take hts flowers because he wanted to
present them himself. The President
responded by saying:
Let him come up" and he took the
posies from the lad and also shook his
hand.
Do you wonder that all over our
country, wherever President Harding
goes, there is expressed for him not
alone admiration for the Chief Elk
ecutive of our great Republic. but
love for the most lovable humanity
Of a man.
DR.. Simon spoke OF Gods three
great creations, children, music, fow-
ers." when he presented the gold and
blue floral Tyre to the President. Sixty
thousand boys and girls had come to-
eether, he said, ito express their love
for you. sir, in loyalty to their nation
and in the hope that you may watch
it's rhythm and direct and inspire it's
life"
And he spoke OF Washington the
beautiful becoming washington the
musical" with temple OF music for
its own. How beautiful II was, with
the clear skies archlns over thsta rare
oval OF srching foliage that framed
this growing picture!
TRIBUTE FOR ALL.

toms first music week so great a sue
cess, so inspiring a model in big
national expression of the health and

that lie hidden in the heart of every
