United States must never "cuss"-
when any one is around.
So Harding doesn't. He emits groans.
and growls, and sundry other sounds,
but he dSesn't "cuss'-not often. He
tries to live up to certain famous ex-
ample. He tells the story himself:
Bishop Satterlee was once playing
golf with Justice Harlan of the United
States Supreme Court. Harlan missed
a stroke. He stood there and looked
at the ball. He displayed marvellous
self control. He never moved a muscle.
Bishop Satttrlee watched him. He STOOD
it as long as he could. Finally the
bishop said:
mir. Justice. that is the most pro-
fame silence / ever listened to ~
He takes his exercise regularly, but
less strenuously than the late Theodore
Roosevelt. He likes to watch tennis.
but doesn't play it. He rode Mt ore

the bride raths of Rock Creek PARK
since the entered the White House. 1'ut
he rides only occasionally. He much
prefers golf.
Fishing is another pastime TO which
he is devoted. Naturally, however, the
opportunities for fishing, to the occu-
pant of the White House, are moro or
less limited. 1t is only when he gets
away into the hills or down In Florida
or some other spot remote from official
duties that he becomes an angler.
The President likes to drive horses
as well as automobilcs--but there are
no longer any horses in the White
House stables. The stables are now
garage. Cars are more convenient
Horses have served past Presidents.
They will serve few others. Mrs.
Harding, by the way. is an excellent
horscwoman. She rode n great deal
at one time. She has not ridden In

is the way he keeps in touch with pub

these questions, when he can, In human

Motoring has long been a hobby
with Mr.. Harding. He was a
pioneer in the use of automobiles.
He was one of the first residents Of
Marion, Ohio, to drive a car.
4 And he always drove it himself
until he was elected President.
/! Moreover, he likes speed.
Mr.. Harding thinks he is not
moving unless he is travelling fifty
or sixty miles an hour in big car.
He has driven at that rate him
self 1t is the one expression Of
ohvsical recklessness that he per-
mits himself.
I Every time he goes on a long
motor trip these days, he wants to
take the wheel. But always this
Is refused. His insistence has given
the Secret Service one Of its great
est problems.
There are things President may
not do. Warren G. Harding, pri-
yate citizen, may hit 'er up at sixty
ian hour if he wishes, but Warren
C. Harding, President Of the United
States, may not.
I! He has not been permitted to
take the wheel Of car since he
became President. 1t is a rule that
Presidents shall not, and he must
obey it.
Motor accidents are many, and the
life of a President must be well
safeguarded.
@ Now as to the farm
Evening public ledger. [volume] (Philadelphia [Pa.]) 1914-1942, 1922-06-27

ident Harding should have such strong
agrarian leanings, since farm life does
not present the opportunities for max
ing human contacts that city life does.
The President is known for his fond
ness for the genus man, and he takes
especial pleasure in making the ac-
quaintance of new specimens. The
newspaper profession and his political
career have enabled him to follow his
bent for mingling with humankind,
in proving that the greatest objective
study of mankind lies in man.
Harding's yearnings for ultimate re-
tirement to farm life are only another
index to a nature that approximates
the plain. intelligent citizen of the
United States. The President is i'm
pressed upon all that meet him as
"a regular fellow
All Washington can tell you that.

simple foods. prefers simple pleasures.
He lives normally, plainly.
Yes-he smokes. He likes cigars

often. He even enjoys dry smokes.

Gregariousness Dominant
Strain of the HardingS

They say the principal influence in
Harding's life was his mother. She
died few years ago. She was very
religious, and her influence, those say
who know him best, had most to do
with the development Of his personal
philosophy. And next her. of course,
was his wife, now mistress Of the White
House.
All of them loved "folks"-people---
plain people-any kind of people. Gre
gariousness is dominant strain in the
Hardings.
President Harding has a genuine lik-
ing for his fellows. His enjoyment in
meeting people is not simulated. He
likes to greet those who come to greet
him. And so does Mrs. Harding.

NEWSPAPERS ARE
TO BLAME

The newspapers of the United
States made Henry Ford. An un-
wise policy of giving free publicity
in the joke columns Of publications
maintained the interest necessary
for the development of a tremend-
out volume of sales of his factory
production. Ford is now reputed to
be a genius. He is nothing of the
sort, being merely man who was
compelled to take what was given
him. Others possessed of great me-
chanical genius have seen their con-
ceptions languish for the lack of the
very thing that made Ford. Now
the flivver manufacturer wants to
revolutionize the world. He doesn't
know to. what extent he is indebted
to the newspaper NUTS of the
United States and if he did his mate
pride would forbid admitting the
fact. People wrote verse in thou
sand different metres and editors

were funny. Finally song writer's
came along and extolled the Ford
car and simple people from end to
end of this great land, music box
fashion, raised their voices in melo-
dious acclaim of the tin Lizzie.
Sacred hymns and national anthems
were forgotten while the song was
being sung out. From it all Ford
proftted enormously. Now he is a
genius; did you ever hear such
nonsense?
The sooner newspaper men of the
nation learn that their space is the
only thing they have to sell and
demand a price for services rem
dered the quicker will others recog-
nize newspaper value. In the mean
time Ford cannot be blamed for ac-
cepting all the free advertising the
newspaper men are willing to give
him.

Interesting bits of information
relating to American incomes in
cluded in the treasury departments
report covering returns for the cal
endar year 1919, which has just
been made public.
Contrary to public opinion, the
largest percentage of returns &C
cording to population was not from
the wealthy industrial centers but
from Alaska and the District of
Columbia. The territory's showing
-17.17 per cent-was explained by
the number of individuals operating
their own business, while that of
the District of Columbia 1910 per
cent-was believed to have resulted
from the high ratio of government
employees with salaries of more than
$1,000 year.
The Southern agricultural state
invariably were far down the lists,
Mississippi citizens making returns
comprising only 1888 per cent of
the total population; North Caro-
lima 1.45 per cent and Alabama

with more than 100000.

of the sources of income showed
