 to by Mir. Harding
(By The United Press)

Washington, Feb. 24.-President Harding has approved the compro- mise reservation to the four-power Pacific pact submitted to him by Senator Brandegee of Connecticut, a member of the Foreign Relations Committee. The committee has agreed to vote on the treaty at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning.
 Text of the compromise reser- vation accepted by Harding follows: 'The United States understands, under statement of the preamble and under terms of the treaty, there is no commitment to armed force; no alliance, and no obligation to join in any defense" The compro- mise contains part of Brandegee's original resolution and part of one Harding yesterday suggested to the committee through Senator Lodge.

TEACHER PAINTS B0YHOOD PICTURE OF PRESIDENT
 NICKNAMED 'CRANDDADDY'

Warren Gamaliel Harding got his middle name. She never speaks it, and in all of her mention of the president calls him plain Warren. ;" And it was as Warren" that her pupil who rose to fame always de- sired to be addressed, Mrs. Rhodes recalled.
 President Gives Gentle Rejoinder
 After Warren was lieutenant governor of Ohio l saw him in Marion, and when I greeted him said: How do you do, governor?' , remarked Mrs. Rhodes Without any affectation he shook my hand and replied: Since when did l get to be anybody but Warren?'
 T think that has been one se- cret of Warren's success. He never seemed affected; he mixes with the people, is always sociable and friendly, and seems to know them. It is this, and his understanding ways and his ability to entertain, coupled with the same kind of abil- ity on the part of his wife, added to his sympathetic nature that serves as d Background for his com 'panionable qualities that has made Warren the great success in politics and statesmanship that he is" was the way Mrs. Rhodes energetically analysed the presidents character.
 But Mrs. Rhodes is not woman to overlook the faults and frailties in even Warren Harding, if she knew of any. She did observe that she thought, when she heard him give public address on Cleveland Heights several years ago, that he might have been more graceful in his oratory, but at that time, she stated, he acknowledged that he was very much embarrassed for two req sons, one being that one of his former teachers was ill the audience and the other being that he had lost the notes for his speech.
 Did Not Indicate Presidential Am
 bition.
 Mrs Rhodes does not believe the secret of Warren Harding's success entirely originated in ana with him. He did not show any special ten dency to religion or spirituality in school, Mrs. Rhodes said, but his mother was very religious, although of a different creed than that of President Harding. As a pupil in her school for two years, at a forma- tive period in his life, the boy Hard ing didn't indicate in any way an ambition to become president nol did he show more than casual in terest in political subjects.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Considera- ton was given erday by both the War Department and the House Military Committee to the question of disposing of the \ governments power and nitrate projects at Mus cle Shoals, Ala, to private enter prises for completion and operation.

Henry White, Former Ann bassador to Fran c 6, Among Those to Get Threatening Letter.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Threats of death unless large sums of money ranging from $15,000 to $25,000 are said by Washington police to have been received within the last few days by four prominent society leaders of the capital. The police and Department of Justice opera tives were said to be investigating the origin of the threats.

Walsh, widow fo the late Montana copper king;" Mrs. Scott Townsend, a well known society leader, and Madame Christian Hague, widow of a for mer Norwegian minister to the United States.
 The letters, according to the po- lice, instructed the recipients to leave the sum demanded in a lonely spot around the city. One of the recipients, it was said, was told to put the money in can and drop it out of her automobile at a cer-

 Cleveland, Feb. 24.-"There was nothing unusually bright about Warren Harding, but he was a good whole-souled, -principled boy when he. went to school to me in the little town of Caledonia.
 And Warren Harding when a boy was intensely human, too, be- cause he loved fresh baked apple pie.
 All of this, and much more, a rep resentative of the International News Service learned today from Louisa Cope Rhodes, of No. 2174 Stearns Road, Cleveland, who was Warren Harding's teacher in the Caledonia public schools for two winters near ly half-century ago, when the present president was thirteen and fourteen years of age.
 A boy doesn't have to beNa prodigy nor extraordinary in any senss to become president, Mrs. Rhodes ob- served, when she told, with won derful clearness of mind and vivac- ify of manner, despite her sevetny- pix years, the story of Warren Hard lngs boyhood days in her school in the country village where she taught.
 Warren Stood Well in Studies.
 Warren stood we'll in his studies he was bright in all of them, but not remarkably so in any branch. He was studious, but not extreme ly so; he was a little bit mis- chievons; yes, he was pretty full of mischief, but there was nothing mean about him. Mrs. Rhodes re- marked reminiscently, as she re- called the characteristics of the boy whose progress as capatin of the ship of state she watches with al- most motherly anxiety.
 II believe Warren's nickname was Grdnuuduuy WHeI He WeHt to lie to school Mrs. Rhodes continued. That was because he was sort of slow in his deliberations and was kind of fatherly, too. He seemed ot be little above and over the others just naturally; he wasn't 'bossy' or cranky It was a strange nick name the other scholars gave him, but can see now better than could then how he got it. Indeed, now see the same characteristics in Warren as president and as man that l saw in him as boy, only they stand out more now"

What Will Tomorow's Daughter of
 Eve be? Sappho Type, Says Author
By IMAGERY REX (Written For International News Garuiop |

Service)
 New York, Feb. 23.-What will tomorrow's daughter be?
 The romantic woman has gone. Who will take her place?
 Woman today is in a state of transition. Appraisals are apt not to include perfect understanding of her. She is specimen who moves too fast for scrutiny.
 By tomorrow sfic will be nodded into a mid-twentieth century type which may reveal the best traits of this moment with choice attributes culled from her past history.
 But must we go back to ancient Greece to find model for tomor- TOW? Mrs. Margaret Culkin Ban ming, a gifted novelist from our own Northwest, has come from Du- luth to tell Us her views on woman's future. She says that our next kind of woman will be:
 Combination of Charm"
 "A combination of the charm of the romantic type with the mind We have now.
 "A woman without today's sharp ness and nervousness, with mind incisive but not aggressive. I should like to pick out of the past a feminine figure of the sort
 "Sappho, the sweet singer of Greece, I believe, was that type"
 In discussing her own sex, Mrs. Banning does not neglect to make the most of the opposite one as a basis of comparison, since man is always affected by woman's revolt
 Women will go on making great progress" she predicts. But they will continue to leave many mutt lated men in their homes.
 ''Is there one of Us who has sus- peeted that her own self-sufficiency has left somewhere in it's wake a bewildered helpless man?"
 "As a Man Thinketh."
 But as man thinketh in his own heart, so is he among his wo- menkind. This is the opinion of Miss Margaret Widdemer, well known poet and novelist, who has agreed to turn prophet for us in or der to describe the woman of to- morrow.
 Not feminist in so far as she knows, Miss Widdemer says she prefers to be "humanist.'
 What this vivid young woman, who, nevertheless, describes herself as a mid-Victorian, thinks about her sex does not lack interest.
 The woman of the future," she says thoughtfully, twill be one who will not need to suppress any part of herself in order to develop any other part. She will have a chance.
 Since woman has got down into the fight she has lost some of her bird 's-eye view of things.
 Sne IS no harder nor more bril- liant than the hard brilliant man of today. Our postwar type is not un- like the post-Napoleonics Women today react from all the social con- ditions ending with the war.
