DEATH OF MRS. HARDING

The death of Mrs. Harding
brings to the homes of this nation a
sense of personal sorrow. 1t was
such a short while ago that she was
at the head of the national family,
the first lady in the land, the CO.
worker of our President. With him
she bore the burdens, which arc the
inevitable accompaniment of high
official position. She was with
him when he broke under the ter
rible strain. She underwent the
ordeal of circumstance following on
his death. And now, she, too. passes
off the scene. her death undoubtedly
FASTENED by the strain of duties at
tending her life before the public.
We mourn the effects of conditions
which we do not attempt to change.
