Harding went to the Marine Band concert in Potomac Park yester- day afternoon and asked Lieut. Santelmann to play “The End of a Perfect Day.” The band leader at once complied and called upon Arthur Whitcomb to play the solo on his cornet. While the special number was belng rendered Mrs. Harding alighted from her motor with Miss Harlan and stood at what might be called strict attention, despite the fact the sun's rays struck her directly in the face. Mrs. Harding led the applause after the piece, in which every- body joined by pressing down hard on their auto horns. In response Cornetist Whitcomb came to the front of the stand and raised his cap. Mrs. Harding's motor wheeled into a space opposite the bridge. which Lieut. Carroll of the park police had saved for her and tayed for several numbers. Lieut Carroll had a big squad out and one-way traffic around the polo field was the rule. for leaders in work will resume w night at Central There will be no class process wiil best of school The training lcommunity m {classes tomoy [High School. }tonight.
