I" HE son of a country doctor of
very modest circumstances, And
III later laborer, printer, news
paper publisher and finally President,
the career of Warren G. Harding
furnishes another striking example of
what is possible in America.
A struggling young newspaper edi-
tor Of 81, he married Florence King,
daughter Of the town banker, after
they had met at a dance. Her father
strongly opposed the wedding, and for
seven years he refused to speak to
his son-in-law.

that he did not take a little tot by the
hand or pat him affectionately on the
head. He never spoke Of 1t, but some
how those around him seemed to sense
his longing for child of his own.
H RESIDENT HARDING dearly
loved his mother and to him
Il her memory was a hallowed
treasure. Greater than anything else,
perhaps, was her influence on his life.
She died ten years before her boy
became President, a fact that caused
him a secret sorrow on his inaugural
day when he was being showered with
all the honors a nation could bestow.
1t was not that he wished to parade
his greatness before her, but because
he knew the joy that would warm her
heart If she could only be there.
For many years before she died he
sent flowers to her regularly every
Sunday morning. He liked to select
them himself so he could make the
prettiest bouquets possible. When alb
sent from home he usually wired to
the florist or made arrangements be-
fore he left. After she went away
from him he used to go to the ceme-
terry and place a wreath on the little
green knoll where she slept.

Editorial Review
Ignite SUPPLY READY

Gradually the people OF the
northwestern states are learning
that they can look to Ignite to
supply their demands. Year after
year the operators have extended
their field Of sales. The large out
put OF the Ignite fields last year
will be greatly increased during
the coming winter. The open pit
mines are prepared to handle 4
tremendous business, and likewise
the underground mines have
things in shape for record break
ing season.
1t is unfortunate that the people
of the northwest elect to wait un-
til it is time to start their fur
naces to lay in a supply of coal.
There is no reason why the mines
could not be started in July and 4
big tonnage delivered before the
handicap of the winter months
reaches the northwest.
The northwestern states are
mighty lucky again this season to
be able to invite the remainder Of
the country to do the worrying
over the fuel situation, content
with the knowledge that the bill
lions of tons of available Ignite
will supply all demands. - Minot
