In reporting a political gathering, give the facts, tell the story as it is, not as you would like to have it. Treat all parties alike.
If there's any politics to be played we will play it in our editorial columns.
Treat all religious matters reverently.
If it can possibly be avoided, never bring ignominy to an innocent man or child in telling of the misfortunes or misdeeds of a relative.
Don't wait to be asked, but do it without asking, and above all, be clean and never let a dirty word or suggestive story get into type.
I want this paper so conducted that it can go into any home without destroying the innocence of any child.
WARREN HARDING.
Thus we see that President Harding has spent most of his life in newspaper work. Here, as we can readily see, he has gained the intimate knowledge of people that has made him genuinely human.
But his training for the Presidency by no means stopped here. For twenty years he has taken an active part in the problems of State and Nation. When only thirty-five years of age he was elected a member of the Ohio Legislature. As a member of this body, his efforts were so successful and so thoroughly appreciated that he was later chosen to Represent Ohio in the United States Senate. In this strategic position he did not lose an opportunity to acquaint himself with the complex problems of National Government. Little did he then realize that all this knowledge was fitting him to become the Head of the Nation. Such is the mystery of life.
"A large upstanding man. A man of great virility. A man of undoubted courage. An honest man, honest with himself and with the public. A man of good judgment and entire practicality. A generous, kind-hearted, and thoughtful man. Thoughtful of his subordinates, generous to his adversaries, and cordial to his equals. A man whose head has not been turned by the honors thrust upon him. A plain, everyday, practical man without illusions or visionary ideas. A man that is a supporter of stable government. A man intensely American in his instinct."
