Aged Country Physician Re- ceived Body Of Son Whom
 Nation Had Called To Serve In Its Loftiest Position

MARION O., August 9.-(By As sociated Press.)--A one-time country, editor Is asleep for a night again under his fathers roof in Marion. And with him came the grief of the nation, of the world that he swas dead.
 among the neighbory folk of his home town. The brief day of hls greatness was but a memory treas-' ured by the nation. His life work was done; the aloofness of his high place ended. The home folk who had held back when last he came among them, awed by the majesty that doth hedge a king" now came ca gerly to look their last on his dead face, peaceful with the calm of eter- nifty.
 It was easy to believe that genial scul that has fled might even burst the bonds of death and move the still lips to happy greetings of these thronging old friends in the modest parlor of his fathers house. To him they were always Jack" and Tom" and Billy" while he had been ''W. G." and The Boss" in the glad. wholesome, simple days before a ice to the flag.
 Harding, the Man, Returns.
 It was thus he would have hailed them today had the big, kindly heart still stirred with life. Time was when he told them face to face of the heavy heart" with which he realized that they held back from Harding, the President, as they had never kept aloof from Harding. the man. But it was Harding, the man, who will be laid to sleep tomorrow within stones throw from the place where his mother lies. Where his final resting place will be is still undecided, for he is. too, Marion's greatest son. But no plan has been proposed that will take him from the close vicinity of his own dead in that pleasant qpiet burial gro6nd with neighbors all about taking their long ease from life.
 A thronged home town waited In silence today for this second coming of a neighbor called by destiny since he went out, two years ago, amid shouting and joyous acclaim to take his place in Washington and guide mighty nation through troubled waters. Only one brief visit to help the home folks celebrate Marion's centennial had been possible for him before. But this coming was greater than that. for he came in the added dignity of death and weighted with sorrowful honors from all the world.
