In 1911, he was sent to congress from the eighth dis- trict. He served four years in Washington and in 1915 was eleci- ed governor of Ohio, being defeai- ed for a second term by James M. Cox of Dayton. He was re-elected to the senate two years ago, defeating former ¢} Senator Atlee Pomerene, Demo- crat, who had come back to make an’ unsuccessful race. * Senator Willis is 58 years old. He received an A. M. degree from Ohio Northern in 1893, and inter- spersed political activities with teaching until 1906 when he was admitted to the bar. He has always maintained hLis home in Delaware. The Willlses have one daughter, Helen Dustin. PR A LONDON, Dec. 30—Is a motor bus a shocking machine? Patrons of the buses answer “Yes.” They say that just as they put their hands to touch the boarding rail of the bus they receive a ¥ slight shock, and some bus rid- ers have actually seen a spark l leap from the handrail to their fingers. A bus engineer has just ex- plained. He says that friction be- tween brake shoes and brake drums generates electricity suf- ficient to chatge the whole bus, The handrail, of course, conduects the electricity to the passenger's , hand. waiting for him, wore a fortable “slouch” hat. An air of easy democracy al ways magked Willis as he rose step by step on the political lad- der, following the path that led other Ohioans to the White House, and now he has climaxed his own ‘career by announcing himself a candidate for the Re- publican nomination for Presi- dent. In his deep, booming voice he launched another Ohioan, who had followed much the same route, in- to the presidency when his voice reverberated through the old Coli- seum in Chicago at the “1920 Re- publican convention, placing War- ren G. Harding’s name in nomina- tion. “Come on, boys and girls,” he bellowed, “let’s nominate Warren G. Harding.” Harding’s star may have becn in the ascendancy, but the roar- ing voice of Willis was the match | that struck the tinder in the se ried rows of delegates. Willis served a long apprentice- ship before he was elected to the United States senate in 1920 in the Harding landslide. In the| hard fought school of Ohio poli tics he always has been known a: a prime vote getter, a maker of friends on a wholesale scale at such homely gatherings as farm- ers’ picnics, community reunions and high scheol commencements. His first office of any impor- tance was as a member of the Ohio legislature, before he had but com- o0 L B MASONIC RECEPTION MASONS OF ALL DEGREES JANUARY 1, 1928 Sunday, 2 te 5 P.
