/ gress Mr.. Harding preferred the
role of counsellor rather than die
tator, he speedily removed any
doubt that his gift of patience de-
noted any lack of purpose once he
had charted course. Thus he told
congress that soldiers bonus legis-
lation either should carry the means
Of financing or be postponed, and
when the legislators put aside his
I advice he promptly vetoed the bill
they sent him.
His tenacity of purpose was fur
Their exemplified in his continual
pounding for economy in public ex-
penditures and again in his insist
ence that congress pass the mer-
chant marine aid bill with a view
to curtailing the continual drain
which the operation of war-built
commercial fleet had become upon
the treasury. His greatest single
effort in the field of domestic leg
islation was in behalf of this meas
ure.
Not infrequenttly Mr.. Harding
was called upon to play the role
of peacemaker in governmental af-
fairs. he interviewed in a dispute
between congress and the treasury
as to the form general tax revision
was to take, and the program he
approved was carried out in the
main with a reduction of more than
half billion in the nations tax
burden.
Likewise, his counsel settled the
long controversy between the house
and senate on the question of
Americana valution in the tariff
law. He proposed in its place a
flexible tariff arrangement under
which the tariff commission was
given authority with his approval
to increase or lower rates within
prescribed limitations. Upon sign
ing the bill, the president declar-
ed it constituted the greatest tariff
reform in American history.
Born in Ohio.
Harding was born on his grand
fathers farm, near Blooming
Grove, Morrow County, Ohio, Nov.
2, 1865.
His father, DR.. George Tyron
Harding, still living, was country
physician whose practice was so
small that he was forced to work
in the fields to make ends meet,
Mrs. Phoebe Elizabeth Dickorson
Harding, his mother, was a home
loving, industrious woman of deep
religious convictions. She profess
ed the Adventist creed From her
Warren inherited many of the traits
so characteristic of him in later life.
Both father and mother came Of
a long line of sturdy pioneers. Dr.
Harding was of Scotch descent
while his wife was of Dutch stock
Warren was the eldest of eight
children. When he was 5, the fam
lily moved to the neighboring vii
lage of Caledonia, O. 4o
At A, he had learned to read, and
was memorizing long poems, He
always was anxious to speak his
piece" at neighborhood gatherings
But he wasn't the "goody, goody'
type. He could swim further and
dive deeper than any of his chums
at the "ol swimmin' hole" in Whet-
stone creek. And it seems he could
chew tobacco better than any of
them.

Something to Think About

Blu z. A. WALKER

Away goes the weight of years,
when smile brightens our life and
lifts our dropping spirits.
We who are old regain our youth.
How delightful 1t is to feel the blood
run warm in our veins, when we have
won a smilel
Our heavy feet are light as air; our
rusty voice tries to hum long-forgot-
ten song, whose words come back from
the past with lifting laughter, jovial
and jolly as thrush, because sunny
soul in passing gave us CHEEKY smile.
The man or the woman who does not
carry smile with him or her may
some day become bankrupt with thou
sands of dollars In bank stranded
among enemies.
A smile passes current at Its face
value everywhere. 1t Is the one coin
that enriches the profigate spender,
bushes the voice of criticism, and wins
for him enduring respect.
A smile, like well-aimed arrow of
Cupid, never fails in piercing the
heart and causing 1t to fiutter with the
most pleasing sensations, exhilarating
alike to the young and the old, who
frequently In times Of trouble prefer
1t to the finest gold.

HARD LUCK

0I HAVE had" says Benvenuto Gel
1 lini, recounting his benefits
many inestimable evils"
Cellini as you know was talented
goldsmith, with such a high opinion
Of himself that nothing daunted him.
He quarreled with everybody
around him, fought valiantly in as
many of the wars Of his time as he
could get into, and all the while
toiled unflaggingly at his trade. He
narrowly escaped being one of the
great artists, Of his day.
In the autumn of his life he wrote
his "reminiscences, in which he tells
Of the evils he encountered and
rightly characterizes them as lnesti-
mable.
Hard luck is nearly always a bless
ing. It Is always very successfully
disguised, but after it has passed the
disguise falls away and we can cal
culate its true value.
The intrigues Of his fellow crafts

the favor of the pope, infurlated Gel
lini at the time.
He was constantly in fear that they
would succeed and he would lose much
valuable work.
But he toiled all the harder to es-
tablish himself, and soon discovered
that the intrigues had really benefited
him. ~
Often he laid aside his goldsmith's
tools to take up the sword, and COM
planned bitterly about 1t at the time.
But his heroic fighting disposition

and through them more work.

GOOD-BY
By GRACE E. HALL


XXIE MEET and pass and speak
W one word unheeding,
Though any hour may rob us Of our
friend;
The voice that now in merry tones Is
speeding,
With the eternal echoes soon may
blend;
We clasp today a hand that's warm
and living,
And gaze in eyes that hold merry
CLEAN;
Tomorrow, the farewell look we may
be giving,
And hear blithe "good-by' as In a
dream.
We hope and plan and play, and part
with laughter,
Unthinkingly, we use one word al
ways;
And give no thought to what may
follow after,
AS though we were assured Of end
less days;
Too oft we part when hearts are sad
and aching,
And speak In tones that cause q
smothered sigh;
oh, let us but remember we are taking
What, anytime, may be our last good.
