MOTHER STATE RECEIVES BODY OF ,' ILLUSTRIOUS SON Scenes of Sorrow Re-enacted on Final Lap of Trip From Capital to Marion, By LAWRENCE MARTIN United Press Staff Correspondent ON BOARD ING FUNERAL TRAIN, Aug. 9. Ohio, mother State of sir Presidents, received back today the latest of her sons to add lustre to her name. Returning in death, he bore upon his bier the garlands of a Nation’s sorrow and TOve. Warren G. Harding came back to his home folk this morning. Years ago he went from them Lito larger spheres of activity and honor, full of splendid vigor, robust in health. He came back today cold and pale in death, the majority of sacrifice and service graven upon his still face—back to the mother State that waited with outstretched arms to receive him to his rest. The funeral train from Washington entered Ohio early today. The coffin, shrouded by the flag of the country Mr. Harding served well, again was the magnet that drew eyes of thousands during the night, in Maryland and Pennsylvania, as people put aside their own concerns to look to the farewell they could not put into words. Scenes Re-enacted Beginning at Baltimore, one hour j out of Washington, and continuing through York, Harrisburg, Altoona I and Pittsburgh, the scenes that marked the train’s transcontinental progress eastward were re-tnacted as it sped through the night and dawn. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania’s capital, expressed fittingly the sorrow of the j Keystpne State for her sister commonwealth to the West. Altoona found miners and railroad workers standing in reverent silence in the night as the train glided by. Pittsburgh, for the second time in two days, sent thousands to stand uncovered in the semi-gloom of dawn. Everywhere the train stopped flowers were put on board. Mrs. Harding rested well after her trying day in Washington yesterday. She was somewhat distressed by reports that she had collapsed. No Foundation for Reports There was no foundation for such reports. Her step was as firm when she boarded the train at Washington last night as at any time during the day. She was very tired and retired at once to her stateroom, where she asked that newspapers containing the stories of the great statesman be brought her. She read them with interest before she went to sleep. While those closest to Mrs. Harding know what a soul-rending strain she is undergoing and what it is costing her to appear outwardly strong and composed while grief is wracking her frail body, they are confident her magnificent will is going to carry her through the final rites. What may happen then they dare not guess, but until then they jdo not fear that she will bfieak down.

Leete >of Indianapolis, here Wednesday attending the Methodist day at Harmony Park, sent the following message to Mrs. Warren G. Harding.

Helps make rich.red blood] [and revitalize weak nerves | A CAUSE OF WOMEN'S ILLS WOMEN OFTEN THINK THEY HAVE HEART TROUBLE. INDIGESTION, NERVOUS PROSTRATION, ETC., WHEN IT’S SIMPLY IRON STARVATION OF THE BLOOD. Many women believe they are weak and nervous as a result of age. wony and overwork: they think that their die turbed digestion, headaches, heart palpitation. shortness of breath. pain* across the back, etc., are due to some serious disease instead of the real cause —iron starvation of the blood. This Is proven by the fact that when many of these same women take organic Iron for awhile all their alarming symptoms quickly ■ disappear aol they become strong, robust and healthy. Iront is absolutely necessary to enable your blood to change food into living cells and tissue. Without it nothing you eat does you the proper amount of good—you do not get the strength out of it If you are not strong and well do not wait until you go all to pieces and collapse In a state of nervous prostration, but tako some organic Iron—Nuxated Iron —at once. But be sure It's organic lroh and not metallic iron which people usually take and which Is made merely by the action of strong acids on small pieces of iron. Organic NUXATKD IRON is like the Iron in your blood and like the iron in spinach, lentils and apples and it often increases the bodily and mental vigor of weak, wornout women in two weeks' time. Beware of substitutes. Look for the word "Nuxated” on every package and the letters N. I. on every tablet. Your money will be refunded by the manuiacturers if you do not obtain perfectly satisfactory results. At all druggists.— Advertisement.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

PROTEST AGAINST BOND ISSUE FOR SCHOOLSJS FILED Fourteen Taxpayers Seek to Block Move for New Buildings, The long-delayed building program "Tor Indianapolis public schools encountered still further delay today when Leo K. Fesler, county auditor, certified to the State board of tax commissioners a remonstrance signed by fourteen taxpayers of Marion County protesting against the issuance of $1,650,000 bond issue for eight new buildings and additions at eight schools. The remonstrance was filed late Wednesday. It was signed by Lewis A. McCammon, 5702 E. Michigan St.; Bert Bacon, 22 De Quincy St.; Herbert G. Heckman, 5166 College Ave.; Edward F. Kellar, 67 N. Irvington Ave.;

Reed, 311 N. Audubon Road; Frank L. Thomas, 202 Berkley Road; John McCullough, 3336 Fall Creek Blvd. The case now must be heard by the State tax board under the law. There has been no school building construction inaugurated ifi Indianapolis for more than two years, the last program of the school board being brought to a halt when the tax board in 1921 refused to approve a bond issue for four buildings on protest of ten taxpayers. The new buildings are needed to relieve crowded housing conditions in the ’public schools and to do away with some of the eighty temporary buildings and portables now in use, school officials said. The remonstrance stated that the buildings were “vitally essential,” but that the amount of the proposed bond issue was excessive.
