SAY YOUNG MAN
 WHY DON'T YOU
 JOIN THE MARINES?

WASHINGTON. D. C., Dec. 17-post- masters are to lend assistance to the United States Marines in the securing of recruits and will be paid $500 for each accepted applicant. according to an official announcement made by the major general commandant of that organization.
 Hereafter the military looking youth who appears at the postoffice may fail to be attracted by the gaily colored poster depicting the life of a marine but he can scarcely escape the appras- ing eye of the postmaster or the latter's query. Say. young fellow-why don't you join the Marines?"
 Doubtless, the young man with mili- tary inclinations will bring little ap- prehensive shivers to his sweetheart when she suspects his frequent con versations with the postmaster are rel ative to the arrival and departure of males"

OVER OUTLOOK
For an Overwhelming Victory
for the Republicans in
West Virginia.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11-Charles
Swisher, former candidate for gov
ernor Of the state of West Virginia,
is Washington visitor this week.
Optimism is written all over Mr..
Swisher, 1t exudes in his conversation,
and he brought cheering and en-
couraging message to those In Wash

state.
1T is amusing and ridiculous for
the Democrats to claim they will
carry West Virginia or that the state
Is doubtful said Mr.. Swisher. "The
Republicans will carry West Virginia
for Hughes by a plurality approx
mating 10000; they will elect every
candidate for state office, every can
didate for the House of Representa-
tlves at Washington and a United
States senator. In my judgment SEN
ator Chiffon will be beaten by a
greater majority than any other can
didate running in the state. l look

c. 0. P. VICTORY
PREDICTED By
ALL LEADERS
Three of Candidates for Sena-
torial Nomination Here for
Hughes Meeting.

Three of the four candidates for
the Republican nomination for Unit
ed States Senator in last June's pri-
mary were together last night at Re-
publican state headquarters confer
ring with campaign managers on the
plans and policy OF the fine battle that
the Republicans are making to hold
the state in limo and bring about a
sweeping victory next month for the
entire ticket. The three were Con-
gresham Howard Sutherland. ex-
Governor Albert B. White of Park
ersburg. and Hon. William f. Hite,
OF Huntington.
The three came to Join the Hughes
special, Governor White leading dele
cation from his city composed of Will
liam Bentley and Davis Crawford, two
Of Parkersburg's leading manufac-
turers and enthusiastic party work
ers, and Judge T. A. Brown. Another
delegation from Parkersburg arrived
at $3.50 a. m. Governor White pre-
dicted the election OF the whoie Re
publican ticket. Every sign points
that way" he said. Party prospects
are daily growing brighter"
Colonel Hite, who didn't miss win
ming the senatorship by very many
votes. was equally as sanguine of a
glorious party victory in West vir-
ginia next month. Colonel Hlte. whose
attitude the day after the primary
and ever since. has won him univer-
sal admiration as a game loser, a
man who has shown the finest kind
of craftsmanship, returned gecuper-
ated from summer spent in the New
Hampshire mountains and jumped
into the management of party affairs
in Cabell and adjoining counties with
vim and vigor. His coat is off.
why he will win in West Virgin
ia this year in romp," he told the
interviewer. The Democrats are maxi
ing a lot of noisy claims. as they al
ways do this far in advance of cleo
ton day. But that doesn't alter the
unalterable fact that there are about
10000 to 10000 more Republican
voters in this state than there are
Democratic votes. There isn't the
shadow of doubt, as to the ability of
Eughes and Sutherland to sweep the
state. and as for Judge Robinson, up
on whom the fight has conferred, he
will go through in whirl. too. Just
mind that. The Republicans of this
state are up and ADDING, wide-awake,
and determined to win. The party is
in fine, fettle. expect to see solid
Republican delegation elected from
West Virginia to back up President
Hughes. and predict this will be one
of the greatest administrations in the
nations history"
