ORGANIZING FOR
FALL CAMP PAICN
Tazewell Democrats Prepar-
ing For Strenuous Effort.
Marshall all-Wilson-Ayers.

"A Wilson Marshall Club was
organized in the Courthouse Saturday
afternoon, with an enrolment of owe,
seventy.
The meeting was called to order by
Mr.. William ii. Werth, who stated
tho object of the gathering. Captain
Tynes was elected temporary chair
man, and Thomas A. Repass, Jr. ,
temporary secretary. Upon motion
Nh. John S. Bottimore was unani
mously elected permanent chairman.
or President of the club, and S. NJ. b..
Cou ling, Jr.. secretary. Il. A. Re.
pass was elected Ire asurer.
Mr.. Bottimore accepted the office
of President of the Club in brief
speech, in which he referred to the
coming Presidential election, and the
strong belief of Democratic success,
stating that the chances of Demo
cratic victory were brighter now than
for fifty years. Mr.. S. ID. May made
brief speech in seconding the nomi-
nation of MIR. Bottimore, in which he
said many complimentary things of
the gentleman's Democracy, referring
to his recent visit to the Baltimore
Convention, where, MIR. MAY said.
Mr.. Bottimore remained until his ex-
chequer had been exhausted, and he
was forced by this unfortunate con-
dition' to return to Tazewell few
days before the adjournment.
Vice. Presidents for the Club were
elected, two from each magisterial
district in the county as follows:
Jacksonville district-A. st.
Clair, A. j. Tynes.
Clear Fork-R. b. Williamson,
John II. Thompson.
Maiden Springs. j. Thompson,
j. b. Crabtree.
1t was ordered that the Vice Presi-
dents constitute memb arship com
mittee, and that they be urged to
solicit members for the club.
After the Club had been organized,
Mr. Werth offered set of resolu-
tions certain sections of which pro-
voked lengthy and heated debate. The
gentleman, with all the energy he
possessed, endeavored to nave the
resolutions passed in their entirety,
but the opposition succeeded in defeat
ing the resolutions as introduced by
vote of IL to IL. The sections OBJ
jected to referred to the activity of
Ryan, Morgan and Belmont in the
Baltimore convention, stating that
the Democrats should refuse to accept
campaign contributions from these
gentlemen. Another section objected
to and stricken out of the resolutions,
referred to the Virginia delegates to
the Baltimore convention, the major
ity of whom voted against the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Wilson. The resolution
commended highly those delegates
who voted solidly for MIR. Wilson
throughout the forty-six ballots.
Judge Graham objected strenuously
to these resolutions, stating that their
adoption would estrange many Demo-
Gratis from Wilson, and would DO no
good in the coming campaign. Mr..
May objected to the section referring
to campaign contributions from rep
resentatives of corporate interests,
stating that if these gentlemen were
inclined to contribute of their means
to the success of the Democratic
party this fall, the Democrats should
accept the contributions.
The following resolutions, as
amended, were adopted

2. We hereby declare our appre-
citation of the magnificent courage,
the unflincbing and never failing fidel-

swim through the waves as they break

1 advise every woman who learns to
swim to begin very early to dive
through the waves This gives her
confidence in her own powers, and she
will need this experience, because It is
always better and less dangerous to
dive through a wave than to let It
break over one.
Begin with small waves to accustom
yourself TO putting your head under
water. Some women. otherwise excel
lent swimmers, never get used to this
and viii never Of their own accord get
their heads wet It is much better
for the general health to wet the head

keeps the body at an equal tempera-

add that a bathing beach should be

At your American beaches, especially
on the ztlantic where the waves are
high, the rope Ginger is especially
popular.
I don't believe in bobbing up and
down while hanging to a rope be-
cause it is often dangerous, the women
especially standing just in the trough
of the sea where the waves are strong
est and where the undertow is most
severe.
