mo3t country bos he went to coun
try school between
morning and
nl ?ht chores and later attend d col-
lego at H.eaiin Ohio. He tried
school teaching for a year but Hav-
ing had a smell of printer's ink
while sticking type for his college
paper the lure drew him into the
newspaper field.
His family meantime had moved
to Marion in an adjoining county
where he obtained his first newspa-
per job and where his llfo life inter-
ests were centered thereafter. Mr
Harding's ambition was to become a
publisher and it was realized at the
age of 10 when he bid on tho Marion
Star at a Sheriff's Sale. The paper
was purchased under a heavy mort-
gage and his friends have often said
that the struggles and hardship
which were his in making this paper
a success had much to do in fashion-
ing a broad patience and tolerance
which weie his chief characteristics.
Whatever his other attainments
Mr. Harding's greatest pride was in
the professional accomplishments and
training as printer editor and pub-
lisher. Nor did the Interests and e.
acting duties of his high office serve
to dull his delight in pottering about
a composing room. On his first trip
back home aHfr his Inauguration he
went to tho Star offices pulled off
his coat rolled up his sleeves bor-
rowed a chow of tobacco and helped
"make up" the paper. His luck was
a printer's rule carried always in a
vest pocket.
As his ambition had carried him
into the ranks of publishers so his
fancy took him into the realm of
politics. From tho first he was an
ardent partisan and his insistence up-
on wearing a "stove pipe hat" tho
badge of support of James fi. Itlaine
while a reporter on a democratic
newspaper brought his sharp r pn-
mand from his clilef who held L 10
bo Inconsistent for a winker on a
democratic paper to so prominently
display the smbol of bin republican
ism.
The future president's ability as a
stump speaker won hi in early recog-
nition from Ills local party lender.-).
Marion county then was In the Dem-
ocratic column and ho undertook to
switch it to tho republican parly but
his first effort at office on his party
ticket resulted In a defeat though
ho commanded un unexpected vote.
Mr. Harding's first political office
was that of Ohio State Senator to
which he was elected at tho ago of
3-1. He served two terms and later
was elected lieutenant-governor of
his state. In 1010 ho sought the
