Outstandinq Characteristic of
President is Presence,
Postrraster Gen. Says
WASHINGTON, June 9Poet
master General Work recently gave
a "close-up" Impression of Presi
dent Harding to a group of western
vlaltors who had called at the Post
office Department to commend Im
provements of postal conditions on
tha Pacific coast Colleagues of the
postmaster general were of the opin
ion that Dr. Work * description of
tho President was so unique it
should be made public and conse
quently It was given o/ today a
follows:
“The outstanding characteristic
of President Harding is his pres
ence. This can hardly he called a
characteristic for it Is the sum of
many: *11 in fact that a man ha .
The President1* presence is seen to
best advantage when he is receiving
the long lines of casual, curious and
iranslent visitors to the White
House.
“This is almost of daily occur
rence and always follows the ad
journments of cabinet meetings.
Many hundred* of visitors to Wash
ington are massed without, wailing
for the cabinet officers to leave,
when thej have been assured they
may shake hands with the Presi
dent.
“The President's art of hand
shaking has been frequently com
mented upon. There is NO art
about It because it is real, it Is an
instinct. He meets them by the
hundreds day after day. forty p< r
minute if there is NO band playing,
more If there is music.
"The President like* children and
old people, and he is fond of dog*,
and they in turn, like him, each in
their own fashion. Ihe dog ‘Laddie
Boy* true to the Airdale instinct for i
one master only, selected the Presi
dent as his special friend. Children
look up at him and pass on reassur
ed. having forgotten that it was the
President who held their hand.
«hile old ladles meet him with
‘Thank God for you. Mr. President.*
or ‘May God bless you,' or 'Our
country ia safe with you.' Often an
old lady on that uncertain border
lino separating the grandmother
from the angel, will kiss his hand,
greatly to his embarrassment.
"These old people; they Impress
one and depress him too, at times.
They have done their work, matured
their children and are waiting. May
hap some are rejoicing them and
other* muv be a distress, but in eith
er event they are their 'children*
whom they must soon leave to the
vicissitudes of the world. To them,
the President seems a guardian and
his office a protectorate to those in
the little family world so many of ua
live In.
"To these people the clasp of the
President's hands means much. They
come purposely to see him. Each
tme passes on feeling that he had
been waiting for them to come. After
greetines as they mass in the
ppaoinys room beyond, having de
parted reluctantly. looking back
ward. the emotions in the many
hearts are beyond knowing, but thoec
critical, suspicious or resentful are
all absent and the one feeling is
common to all that they are leaving
a presence ‘where welcome ever
smiles and farewelll goes outside.’ "

PRINCETON. June 9.--The
Princeton battle monument, com
memorating the battle of 1':iIlr^ton,
is from the band of F. W. MacMoti
nies, of New York, who created the
much discussed Civic Virtue statue
in front of the New York City Hall.
He has been working on it since
U08. the period of the war excepted.
It is located on Nassau street, in
front of the old Princeton Inn, and
was erected by the Princeton Bat
tle Monument committee, which
raised *300.000 for the purpose.
The memorial is a large relief
with General Washington as the
main figure, thus combining the
ideas of the heroic, of fame and of
victory. It represents Washington
at the Battle of Princeton, January
3. 1777, watching his men as the re
treat. General Mercer, who was
killed In the battle, lies dying at his
feet. The lower part of the monu
ment consists of several minor fig
ures portra.\ing several forms of
heroism under difficult circumstan
ces of the battle. Dr. P. S. Grant
of New York, posed for General
Mercer: Dr. Allen Marquand for the
soldier who is rushing forward, and
Charles Dana Gibson, the illustrator
for the figure of the soldier who is
supporting the fallen general.
ECONOMY AT VATICAN
DEMAND OF POPE PIUS
ROMK. June 9.—(By The Asso
ciated Press)—Pope Plus is showing
his powers of organization and econ
omy even in small matters, drawing
the purse strings ot the Vatican
much closer than his predecessor.
Benedictine XV approved with
little questioning, furniture, etc. toi
apartments. Pope Pius has flved a
yum for small repairs, etc., and has
appointed a committee to examine
every detail and see whether every
thing is necessary.
The Vatican stables although
shorn of their old occupants, still
have a few black horses used for
court service and officials
The pope is not attempting to as
certain if it would not be cheaper
to do away with the stables and buy
a couple of automobiles.
