HARD QUITS POST
At WHITE HOUSE
Close Friend of Late Presi-
dent Harding, to Return
to Ohio Home.

Charles F.. Hard. appointment clerk
OF the White House. has rendered his
resignation TO President Coolidge, and
in few days will return to his home
in Portsmouth. Ohio.
With the retirement OF Charlie"
Hard. as the appointment clerk was
affectionately known. another close
friend OF the late President Harding
passes from public life in Washington
Charlie" was not only an intimate OF
Mr.. Harding's for many years. but he
was one of his most faithful and
trusted political lieutenantS. His ap-
pointment TO his position was one of
President Harding's first official acts
after assuming office.
Belongs TO Old School.
Mr. Hard belongs to what is now
described as the old school OF politics
He is native of Portsmouth. Ohio.
and for more than twenty-five wears
has been an active worker in the in
terests Of republicanism. For a num-
her OF years he edited a paper in his
home town. and il was while thus en-
gagged that he made the acquaintance
OF Warren Harding. He was repuh-
llcan county chairman for a decade
ana served two terms as postmaster
at Portsmouth.
Mr.. Hard Joined President Harding
during the early days of his pre-con-
vention fight in 1920. and continued
| to serve him throughout the subse-
quent campaign.
Wrote Presidential Letters.
The title Of Mr. Hard's positfon
does not adequately suggest the num-
Der and the nature Of his duties The
greater part of his time was devoted
to the writing OF those presidential
letters that required something more
than the customary rubber stamp re-
ply. He also interviewed many Of
those callers at the White HoUss. who
wished to see the President personal
ly. to determine whether their bust
ness was of sufficient Importance to
warrant making AN engagement with
the chief.
Mr.. Hard was extremely popular
among the White House force and
with the public men who frcquentcd d
the executive offices. During his more
! than two years residence here he
made many friends. many of rhon
today expressed their regret at his

Il get so tired, Leslie. when a Woman
writes a book or play or the seen
ario for a picture, of having every
body say that she has put the exper-
fences of her own life in it-particular-
ly If those experiences have a sexual
tinge. I suppose it is because in the
old days we deluded ourselves into
thinking that women were sexless as
far as their thoughts were concerned.
What hypocrits we all were. We had
to cry 'Wolf-wof' the moment a
woman was brave enough to come out
and write a story or a play which
made the heroine a human being
'Trumping His Heart Is the most
human picture I've seen lately but
one has no right to say, unless one

an artistic fiction. Did she tell you

happens, my dear, that you have

doorstep and that Jack knows Paula
Perier. But nearly every man in town
who loved beauty and liked to be seen
with a pretty girl knew her. No one
knows that Paula Perier has. had a
baby, consequently it is absolutely
malicious to make up a story of this
kind
Il ofttimes wonder, Leslie, if these
scandal mongers ever remember that
the commandment, Thou shalt not
bear false witness against thy neigh

beings as Thou shalt not commit
adultery"
Ruth, you are a dear girl. You

some advlce as TO the proper way for a
country girl TO entertain a boy friend on
Sunday evenings:
L Should she serve eats? What would
be best to serve: What time should she
do it,
?. Should girl invite boy friend into

l. is it bad etiquette for girl to hold a
mans arm or for a man TO hold a girl :

D. What do men like best about women z
Do they like independent and naughty

Conversation. games. in which other
members Of the family. or friends, may
join, and music can be used to provide
entertainment
1. On these fall evenings, it is fun
to bring In the corn-pOpper, or to make
candy, or roast chestnuts and apples

-. to the trouble, you could make
sandwiches and serve them with coffee
or cider. about 10 o'clock. However,
that seems unnecessarily elaborate for
just one friend.
2. It would be the hospitable thing
TO do, and quite correct.
3. No.
4. A girl may take her escorts arm
at night, or in a crowd A gentleman
does not grasp a girls arm.
5. Get a man started on a topic of

Men do like to feel superior, much as
