DEMOCRATIC WOMEN VOTERS
TO ORGANIZE.

In another column of the Spirit the
County Democratic Executive Com
mittee issues a call for all women
voters interested in the success Of
the Democratic party at the polls in
November End, next, to meet with
the Committee at the Court House in
Charles Town on next Saturday af-
ternoon at 2 o'clock.
By reason of the adoption of the
Nineteenth Amendment to the Con-
stitution of the United States where
by all the women of this country be-
come legal voters, it becomes neces-
sary that an organization be perfect
ed of the Democratic women in each
county of the State. This has al
ready been done in many of the
counties, and the object of this meet
ing is to- perfect such an organiza-
ton.
There are very many women in
this county who perhaps are opposed
to woman suffrage, but, however,
now that it is fact, it becomes all
the more important that all of the
women shall exercise the right of
suffrage, so that the candidates and
party that represent their wishes on
noted questions shall not be over
come at the polls by the votes of
women voters of the opposition, so
therefore we impress upon you the
Importance of taking an active part
in this campaign.
The National and State Democrat
ic Committees have requested that
such an. organization of the women
be perfected, and to this end the
Democratic County Executive Com
mittee has called. this meeting.
1t is of the utmost Importance that
the full vote of Jefferson County
including both men and women be
registered at the polls at the coming
election, and it is urged that all
women who have the success of the
grand old Democratic Party at heart
attend this meeting and do what
they ran to helm in this work

Rhodes scholars now living in this
country About 400 men were can
didates fer the sixty-four appoint
ments, the competition this year be-
ing larger than ever before The in
creased interest in the scholarships
in this country is paralleled by the
favorable arrangements now in force
for their reception in Oxford Res
cluticns recently passed by the uni
versity admit the men to junior or
senior standing with much less diff
Guilty than in the past, while the new
degree of Phi. D. has been establish
ed largely to meet the needs of
American students.
Rhodes scholars are chosen in ac-
cordance with threefold require
ment in the will of Cecil Rhodes, the
South American Diamond King
which comprise character, intellec-
tual ability and physical vigor. No
written examinations are held, the
men being chosen on the basis of
their school or college record, sup
plemented by a personal interview

BOOKS READY FOR THE NEW
REGISTRATION.
Registrars Can Go To Work at Once

The blanks have been received by
County Clerk Charles A. Johnson

Johnson has been delivering the
books through the County to the reg
istrars by automobile, and they can

days, but must start the work by Oc-
tober L.
The registration boards will sit

ceiving the work of the registrars.

THE WAR MEMORIAL.

Less than two weeks remain before
the special canvass for the Million Dollar
University War Memorial is launched on
Monday. October 4. to continue for a
week. The organization in Jefferson Co.,
under the direction of Geo. NJ. Beltzhoo-
yer, Jr. as chairman. is practically com
pleted, and when the bell rings for the
local forces to start out on the opening
day it will find sizable body of earnest
work ers all set to do their level best to
secure contributions to the ''hero fund -
In thu case OF the noble boys from this
county who made the supreme sacrifice
in the Great War, whatever contribu-
tions to the Memorial are made will be
direct tribute to their sacredmemories
1t would be difficult to conceive of more
patriotic or more worthy Cause No fur
Their argument in this respect need be
voiced than to repeat the slogan Of the
Memorial campaign, Remember our
sacrifice: we died that the living might
benefit"
1t has not yet been definitely decided
just how the canvass for funds will be
made in this community. but it is fore
gone conclusion that it will be done in
thorough manner, the workers depend |
ing upon the patriotic appeal of the |
movement to unloosen the pursestrings
of the masses.
The quota for the state is 81 90 for |
every grown person, which IN view of |
the nature of the enterprise seems very
reasonable.
In the Fifth Memorial District are the |
counties Of Barbour. Randolph. Tucker.
neral. Morgan. Berkeley, Jefferson.
Hampshire, Hardy, Grant and Pendle-
ton
Other County Memorial officials are:
Fl. N. Bradley. treasurer; Darrell K.
Koonce. secretary
According to Governor CornweIl. Ex-
Governor Glassccck, Hon Owen S. Nc.
Kinney, DR.. Frank Butler Trotter, Maj /
or Earl Fl. Smith and other State Me-
mortal chiefs the prospects for raising
81 900, 900 during the special canvass for
funds are most encouraging. in fact.
there is little doubt that the sum will be
secured in the week of October 49
THE SHRINES OF GOVERNMENT.
1.-The shrines of government are in the
communities of the land - In this one
sentence. fresh from his heart and brain.
Governor Cox shows more real Ameri-
canism. more sympathy with the visions
and ideals of our country. than can be
found in altthe deliberate utterances and
calculated phrases Senator Harding
ever wrote or spoke.
1t is in the communities of the land
the small country communities as well
"a in the great metropolitan cities that
the shrines of government. the affairs of 4
the councils of American.
ism. are found.
1t is not in great organizations. not in
theatrical leagues or political clubs that
the foundations of our Nation are laid
tits in the quiet homes, on farms, in the
villages and towns. as well as in cities.
that the broad and deep basis of the fab
ric of our Nation is laid.

COL. BROWN URGES PEOPLE TO
SUPPORT LEAGUE AND
PREVENT WAR.

congressional Candidate fleads + or
Permanent Peace, to Which He Says
League of Nations Will Lead. Says
Wilson Should be Backed.
Urging a peace which will be ever
lasting, Colonel Forrest w. Brown,
Democratic Congressional candidate
in the Second District, who preceded
Secretary of War Newton D. Baker,
chief orator at the meeting in Mar
tinsburg Saturday afternoon, fur
nished statistics compiled by histor-
ians showing the true effects of war
fare, and pleaded for League of
Nations.
Colonel Brown stated that in 5000
years of the worlds history the peo-
pie have not enjoyed fifty years of
peace. During practically all that
time, he said, history shows that
some nations of the earth were at
war.
Speaking of the cost of wars Col
onel Brown said that ninety-three
per cent of taxes paid in the world
go to support armies and navies in
their upkeep and to purchase NUM-
tions. He said such a condition
should not exist and urged the peo-
pie of the country to stand back of
the President in his strugglesto have
America join the League of Nations,
which, he said, would furnish per-
manent peace.

FOR PRESIDENT FOR GOVERNOR

Standing squarely for clean
politics, the Democratic party in
West Virginia does not propose
to raise or attempt to raise a big
fund of money for the campaign
in this election.
There are, however, certain Ie-
Ultimate expenses, for publicity,
organization and travelling ex-
penses of speakers brought in
from outside the state, which
must be met.
Large subscriptions are not
being sought, but it is the de-
sire of the State Committee to
secure donations of one to fifty
dollars from as many Demo-
cratic voters as possible who
agree that the cause this year
demands his or her loyalty in
that way.
Please get your name in the
list below at once.
Send subscriptions to the Spiri
of jefferson Office and they will b.
to State Headquarters a
once.
