Harding, twenty-ninth president of these United States, wa3 called in death, a week devoted to universal sorrowing and mourning, it still seems that he is with us and that he has not gone away. We think of him as he was, not as he is, and as he was he will live forever in our hearts a kindly man of such friendly mien and lovable traits that he had no enemies. Men differed with him on affairs political and perhaps in ‘private life before he became a public servant, but his strongest and most aggressive opponents in these things unite in their expressed almlration of him as a man and their praise of the sincerity of his every act. All who knew him were his friends. He died a martyr to the duties of his office, the most exalted and most onerous one on earth and history will accord him praise for the manner in which he ad ministered it. The responsibilities and the duties of the high office he has laid down are most exacting on the mental and physical forces. Almost too much for one to stand, as witness ed by the death of President Harding and the physical breakdown of his predecessor, Woodrow Wilson. But few of those before them have sur vived long after their retirement. Perhafps if a few of the nice things said about them in death or illness were uttered while they were giving their best for their country their bur dens might be easier to bear, and they might not break under the strain.

THE GOODENBERGER’S WILL BECOME MISSIONARIES A farewell reception was given Rev. and Mrs. Ernest C. Goodenberger Monday evening at the home of Rev. and Mrs. George Longstaff, by the members of the Presbyterian congre gation. Rev. and Mrs. Goodenberger left on the following morning for a visit with relatives and friends at Hastings and Scotts Bluffs, Nebraska, on their way to San Francisco, where on September 6th they sail for their new home in the province of Yunnan, which is located in the southwest por tion of China. The Goodenbergers accompanied by Dr. and Mrs. Curtis Gault and a Dr. Brewer, of New York City, will sail from San Francisco, September 6th, on the mail steamer President Taft and will land in Shanghai, China, where the entire party will report to the Chinese Presbyterian Council and receive their commissions showing their exact location in the province. The Presbyterian Foreign Board have appropriated $18,000 for the erection of homes, churches, hospitals, etc., for the benefit of this little colony of Americans who are going into this un-Americanized part of the globe. Rev. Goodenberger, who is a corpenter by trade, will have charge of the erection and construction of the build* ings in the province. The party have arranged for a year’s supply of groceries such as flour, butter, baking powder and the necessities of life that cannot be pur chased in that country, and they will be transported there as rapidly as pos sible, which takes about six months. From Shanghai, China, the party will travel by rail and boat as far across China as possible and will then be required to travel by pack donkies, for fifteen or eighteen days before reaching their new home. The inhabitants of Yunnan are not Mongo lians but resemble more the American Indians for size and build, and speak a language all their own. They are an older race than the Chinese. The field to which these people are going is the farthest of any mission ary appointment from the United States and is one that has received little or no attention in the past but is just now being opened for mission work.
