HARDING TO REST IN BEAUTY
SPOT NEAR OLD HOME

The spot in Marion cemetery where
all that is mortal of Warren G. Hard
ing will be consigned to final rest, is
one of the most beautiful In the vicin-
ity Of the quiet town to which he oft
times said he wish to return as an
ordinary citizen"
Situated at almost the exact center
of the vast expanse of the burial
ground, the Harding family lot, where
the president Of the United States
will resume his place among the kind
ly folk he knew and loved as neighbors
lies cupped in a tiny valley.
Two giant elras cast deep shadows
over the slabs of granite which mark
the rest place of the presidents
mothers and Of his sister, Mary Clar-
issa, and only d few steps away a
gleaming gravel road wins through
q perfect archway Of foliage fashion,
ed by the interloeking branches of
Virgin elms.
To the rear, where the tiny depres-
sion levels itself out, stretches z quiet
vista Of gently rolling grassland, dot
ted here and there by the gray blot Of
a tombstone, all deepened into sonbre
tints by the shade Of forest trees-a
fitting background for the shrine of a
dead president.
