The Prescott daily news., 1916-08-03

A woman marries a man for the comfort of leaning on his manly strength-and then learns to love him for the boyish weaknesses which make him lean on her for comfort.
 There are very few all-silk mar riage ties, warranted not to shrink, stretch, run or fade, nowadays.
 A mans subtle way of persuading a girl to do anything beneath her is to start out by telling her how far above such things he knows she is.
 "Love me, love my dog" is a de- mand easy for man to comply with when compared to the usual woman's ultimatum, "Love me, love my rela- tives"
 The average man sees no more req son for hanging around woman after he has married her than a cat does for hanging around the kitchen after it has finished dinner.

Chiffon AND
NELLY KEEP
MEN IN CAMP
Efficiency of the Second Regi.
ment MiSrepreSented to the
War Department.

CHARLESTON, Oct. 7.-Were IT not
for United States Senator w. n. Chill

Second West Virginia infantry would
have been at Demlng, y. NJ. before

November election, is the sincere be-
lief Of both officers and men in mo-
bilization camp here.
Extensive Trimming.
This regiment has been given extern
sive training for the last two months
and has been declared by United
States army officers Of high rank who
have been here as inspectors and in
other official capacities, the best
equipped state regiment in the coun-
try, and one of the best drilled and
disciplined they had ever seen in ma
tional guard service
That misrepresentation have been
made to the war department is open
ly alleged, and that Chiffon and Neely
have recently caused to be published
newspaper articles tending to dis
credit the efficiency of the regiment
is charged. Their own press agents
have distributed articles TO the Demo-
cratic papers Of the state in which
the officers of the regiment are called
incompetent and charged with being
grossly negligent of their duties Tho
regiment is called failure as a whole
and otherwise referred to in terms
Tar from complimentary.
Men in Fine Shape.
Every military man who has visited
the camp at Kanawha City has been
fayorably impressed with the regi-
ment and in comparing it with other
regiments which have been sent to
the border, say that it is better drilled
and better equipped. Nearly every
man is in good health and in fine
physical training. The willingness
with which the men have worked to
qualify themselves for services fol-
lowing the understanding they were
given some time ago that they would
surely 70 to the border-and every
one Of them wishes to sac some sorv-
ice out OF the state before being mus.
tered out
1t may be that the regiment will
go south, but Senator Chilton's friends
declare that it will not.
