Harding, editor and publisher of The Marion Star, conducted the successful "front porch campaign" which won him election as 23th President of the United. States in 1920. The Harding house is located at 380 Mt. Vernon Avenue in Marion. The late President Harding was an inveterate collector. And in the memorial which has been erected to him on the outskirts of Marion are to be found today many relics not alone o f his life­ time hut of earlier presidents. Here one may see the locket containing a clip of Abraham Lin­ coln’s hair—.the- coffee cups used by William Howard Taft—the horseshoes that once tore the lawn at the White House—the beautiful mahogany desk from which Harding gave the first tele­ phone and loud speaker inaugural address to more than 120,000,000 people—the gavel that was used when Charles Evans Hughes was nominated for the presidency in 1916—and other items o f interest. The mausoleum of -both Presi­ dent and: Mrs. Harding is one of the most beautiful of Ohio’s memorials. Together with the Harding home and the memorial, both open to the public, the sight­ seer may find much to warrant a delay of the trip at Marion. The Harding Mausoleum at Marion WARREN 6.

There’ s a commonly used ex­ pression: “You get just what you pay for.” This applies to PRINTING just the same as most anything else you buy. Good PRINTING can’t be produced at a poor price. Poor Printing even at a low price is expensive, because it gives the prospective custo­ mer the impression that your services or products are not up to standard. We give full value for every dollar you spend with us for PRINTING —and our prices are always FAIR. W e Solicit Your Next Printing Order The Cedarville Herald Associate Agent Assumes Duties Edwin L.
