HAVE ANOTHER MYSTERY
Herington.. People Are Wondering
About "444"


Herington has another mystery.
There are signs posted all around
the town with the inscription
'LoOk Out For 444." Whether
"444" is a special chapter of the
Ku Klux Khan or new brand of
baking powder remains to be dis
covered. Some believe it is the
name Of an organization of strik-
ing shopmen, while other think it
might be an organization to pro-
tect possible violence directed at
shopmen now at work. Nobody
appears to have a definite idea
what the "444" stands for and If
anyone knows he's not telling.

Intense relief is felt in all parts of
the city and county over the good news
from Washington that the condition of

improvement,

sages from the white House. Some
hoy, have felt all along that Mrs.
Harding would be spared to us. She
will be wonderful aid to the Presi-
dent in the future, as she has been in
the past, and the news that she is bet
ter will come with all the JOY that can
possibly be expressed among a sad
people, popularity called the home
folks, who know her best and love her
above all the rest.
"The prayers of all Marion as they
nscended upward in the ciry's many
churches were no doubt heard by Him
who sees the sparrow fall, and to me
there is no doubt that He heard and
stayed the hand of death, even though
the stay may be only temporary. We
shall continue to pray for this noble
woman; we shall continue to pour out
our most fervent prayers in beseechina
Him to spare her to the great head Of
this republic and this nation. But
whatever is best we know the Almighty
|swill render. We are happy in oul
praying to know that Mrs. Harding is
improved and we are happy to say thai
we attribute it to Lord Jesus.
DIR. George T. Harding, the Presi
dents father. appeared ten years
younger as he stepped lively in ane
out Of "The Star" news room, each
time carrying back into his own Office
more encouraging reports. concerning
the condition Of Mrs. Harding.
Another indication of the high es
teem held for Mrs. Harding by the hom'
folks was given yesterday and this
morning by the eagerness with which
papers were bought. News dealers re

earlier than usual.

Mrs. Harding.
The appeal of the commissioners, as
made public by Secretary Daniel E.
