Florence Harding

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception



When President Warren Harding was first elected to the U.S. Senate, his wife began advocating for the rights of returning World War I veterans. According to Firstladies.org, Florence Harding launched the "Lest We Forget" Week to encourage donations of books and clothing to returning soldiers. She was also known to pick up wounded veterans on the street who needed a ride.
