that President-elect Harding will cur-

before leaving for his visit in Florida.
that he intends to give the country a
strictly ”party government."
With a plurality of more than 5.~
000.000 votes. Mr. Harding has every
justification for concluding that he
has been given authority by the peo-
plc to “go the limit" in carrying out
the policies of the Republican party.
as enunciated in the Chicago platform,
and proclaimed by leaders in the cam-
paign.
There is no good reason why Mr.
Harding should feel called upon to se-
lect for his Cabinet. or any other lmv
portant position in the Government.
any man whose Republicanism has
not been tried in the political tires and
found to stand the test or partisan
heat. No halt-and-hall statesman
would seem to have any claims on the
incoming administration.
It is reasonably certain that the
great plurality given to Mr. Harding
was his because the public felt that
the administration he would inaugur-
ate would be something dillerent tram
the present one. and it is is also just
as reasonably certain that the people
would‘not be satisfied with any com-
promises with the ideas 0! Democrats
or so-caiied Progressives.

BUILD A FOUNDATION. TOO.
There was a sign in a savings bank
window. the other day. which said:
"If you dream castles in the air. save
and put a foundation under them."
Once there was a young man who
had always dreamed 02 being wealthy.
As a boy he pictured himself dressed
in the height of fashion. snappy cut
to his clothes. and all that. walking
down Main street. People on the side-
in: would point him out. saying:
"Yes, there's Sam Green. young tel-
lpw. but smart. Yes, or. smart.
Owns that. big house up on the hill.
and has got a good pile salted dovm.
Must be worth $100,000."
Io Sun. as an initial step toward
‘ saith. saved. and. atter a lime.
ached his first goal. the 81,000 goal.
after which. 'fla said. the money just
grows. ,
But about‘this time 8am got a girl.
and then. he wanted to make a
splurge. He wasn’t going to take her
into any little two-by-four house: he
was going to have that house on the
hill. 80 Sam began looking around
for ways to help that 81.000 grow,
and. like many a thrifty, but too im-
patient young man. bought wildcat
stock. And the $1.000 was gone. and.
with it. Sam's dream or the house on
the hill and all the rest.
To return to the adv. la the bank
window: "It you dream castles in the
