miles out of Marion. The situation
was looking dark to me and / stopped
to ask an old fellow, who was smoking
a pipe, how far IT was to Marion.
Without cracking a emile, he replied:
Wen, II you are going to ride that
mule, Il Is a further distance than
you will ever get
r. HE PROUDEST moment OF his
life, the President once con
IL fessed. was not the day that he
stood before the massed thronS In
front OF the~ capitol with one hand
resting on the Bible and the other
raised t. heaven and took the solemn
oath as the head Of the mightiest ma
ton among men.
1t was back in Marion, long years
before, when he WAS the leader OF the
town band. A great event in Ohio In
those days was the annual band con-
test at Ffndlay. to which competitors
came from miles around. The youth
full bandmaster from Marion had
stretched his credit to the limit to
buy new uniforms for his flock so
they might present a respondent ap-
pearanoe, and he was gambling on
winning the prize money for rein
bursement.
The rival bands blared away, each
getting it's turn before the judges, but
after a few had followed them most
of the Marion bandsmen lost hope and
quietly departed, not wishing to pub
lioly suffer the humiliation Of defeat.
At last. none remained but young
Harding, who blew q wicked alto horn,
and the clarinet player and bass drum
mer Imagine his JOY when the
Judges called Harding forward and
announced he had won prize Of 5000,
which was more than enough to pay
for the new uniforms.
In the grand review of the prize
winners that followed. Harding and
his clarinetist and bass drummer
marched proudly past the judges
stand, rending the air with what
would have been Marching Through
Georgia" had there been musicians
enough to make the melody recogniz-
able.
The ovation that he got when he
returned to Marion, he said in the
White House one winter afternoon,
was the proudest moment Of my
life
GYT OW does a man feel when he's
IH just been elected President?
III When the eager newspaper
men corralled him at Marion that
night in November, 1919. he met them
with a broad smile.
well, boys" he laughed, "I feel
just as If I had gone in with a pair
of Fights and come out with a full
house."
This poker story spread and it was
not long in reaching the ears of Mrs.
Harding and the pillars OF the church
in which he was a member. Just
what happened nobody knows, but
there were no more poker yarns.
&c
LITTLE while later, President
al elect Harding, still Senator,
LII came back to Washington. He
and Mrs. Harding drove through from
Marion in their auto. and carried their
lunch in a shoelbox that she had
packed before leaving home. the last
thing she did before telling the ice
man to stop the ice and the milkman
not to leave any more milk until fur
Their notice.
Senator John Sharp Williams, the
venerable Mississippian and man
who, had never made any effort to
conceal his fondnes for a delicious
mint julep or a sparkling cocktail,
was one of the first to greet him.
Well. Senator Harding" Williams
said, II see that fate has 1t that you

to be President, 1 want you to appoint

Portugal" the President elect

That's simple enough" laughed
Senator Williams. I've figured out
that Portugal will be the last country
In the world to go dry"
Al OTORING was his hobby, golf
lIMl was his diversion, but dogs
LII were his love. He was fond
OF dogs-had always been so-and be-
hind 'Laddie Boy" whom he &C
cepted as "a puppy when he entered
the White House, was a long line of
iliustrious canine predecessors who
had cheered his lonely moments and
softened his sorrow over the fact that
he had no children.
There was Doc, the faithful com
panion OF his childhood, who lived to
respectable old age and was ten
derby buried In the back yard. Later
In the canine cycle came Hub, whose
tragic death produced this editorial in
the Marion Star Of March IL, 1918:
"Edgewood Hub in the register,
a mark OF his breeding. but to us
just Hub, a little Boston terrier,
whose sentient eye mirrored the
fidelity and devotion of a loyal
heart. The veterinary says he
was poisoned-his mute suffering
suggested II. One Is reluctant to
believe that a human being who
claims mans estate could be SO
hateful a coward as to ruthlessly
torture and kin trusting victim,
made defenseless by his conf
dence In the human master. but
there are such. One honest look
from Hubs trusting eyes was
worth a hundred lying greetings
from such inhuman beings. though
they wore the habihments OF
men"
Soon after his Inauguration, Presi-
dent Harding read in a newspaper
that the dog of Russian immigrant
was about to be shot under peculiar
State law. Immediately he made an
appeal to the Governor of that State,
with the result that the dogs life was
saved through pardon
sss
TTORNEY GENERAL HARRY
a NJ. DAUGHERTY was Presi-
LII dent Harding's Damon and
Harding was Daugherty's Pythias.
Between them, the closest of friend
ship had existed for years and it was
Daugherty's keen political strategy
that won the nomination for Harding
at the Chicago convention after the
delegates had tied up in a hopeless
deadlock over the foremost aspirant.
Throughout history some of the
most trivial of incidents have been
followed by the most fruitful of con-
sequences, and so it was with the
meeting of Harding and Daugherty.
Had 1t not been for a rain one day
just before the State election in Ohio
in 1898. they might never have be-
come acquainted-but the rain did 1t.
Harding was then running for the
Ohio State Senate. He was campaign
ing at Redwood and was at the
schoolhouse pump, washing the mud
from the rain-soaked roads of his
shoes when Daugherty came up.
There began the strange friendship
that nearly quarter of century
later sent Harding to the White
House and put Daugherty In the At
torney g eneral's chair.

to haul gravel for the D., T.

earned money by painting barns and
similar tasks. One summer in his

Young Harding and a chum of

Noon Hour

q If traders concluded from the sud
den drop in Wednesdays late dealings
that the market lacked support they
had to change their views before
p. m. Persistent pressure failed to
extend the decline and prices began
to improve in the noon dealings. The
market was in trading area and sub
ject to quick shifts in either direc-
ton. Pressure on Texas Gulf Sui
phur, which dropped 8 points in the
morning, was lifted on assurance that
the company was earning its dividend
by a comfortable margin.
Special weakness cropped out among
South American oils in the fourth

equal loss at %. Steel common was

Prices in the main body Of stocks
came almost to a standstill in the

of 20 cents a share. No action Of this
sort is contemplated now but will
