OHIO GOVERNOR PROUD
OF HIS COUNTRY HOME
(By United Press. }

Dayton, Ohio, Aug. 8. - Trails
End, the home of Governor and Mrs.
James M. Cox and the showplace of
the Dayton community, is just now
the busiest spot in this neck Of the
woods. 5s ;. y E35 II t& sa,a s.S IRA. IN
During the days when Governor
Cox was working 20 hard to whip his
speech Of acceptance into shape,
Trails End was the mecca for scores
Of democrats-both leaders and fol-
lowers-who came to advise with the
democratic nominee and to pay their
respects to the new standard bearer.
The house and eState are located
about four miles from the center of
Dayton and can be reached either by
automobile or an interurban line half
. mile away. .,. S$5, Gss3 NAT a&
The Cox home sets on one Of the
highest hills T., roundabout and over
looks the now calm aud beautiful
Miami valley. Almost the entire val
ley was swept by tEs. big Dayton
floods of few years ago. The house
is about half mile from the main
iroad of the valley and is reached by
lclimbing up rustic winding roads.
THE grounds have been improved with
walks and drives, but the whole scene
is much as nature made it. The drive
way is the path Of m old Indian trail,
which ended at the site of the house,
thus causing Cox to name the estate
Trails End. .,.,S3.54s,..-.. .,... =
Governor Cox's home is the pride
! Of his heart. 1t is composed OF spaci-
GUS rooms, beautiful sun parlors, al
Iveranda that extends out into the
ltrees on the edge OF the bluff, cozy
den, a state dining room, breakfast
room in which the Cox family have
most of their meals, and last--but not
llesst in the mind Of the nominee
large swimming poo, which. during
the time of writing his speech OF
was placed at the dis
lposal of visiting newspaper men. r
i Old-fashioned and wild flowers sur.
fround the house, their arrangement
being the PERSONAL work OF MRS. COX.
On the edge of the valley below is
the Cox garden--a miniature farm.
Besides all kinds Of vegetables the
] governor has an unusually good stand
of corn. s2'
Governor and Mrs. Cox have
tramped over every inch of their
estate and often walk into the nearby
hills to cook a lunch over camp
fire. The governor has a reputation
for being an excellent "outdoor
cook" at least, as many newspaper
linen who found him broiling lamb
chops one day on his farm, can
testify. s%@

Opportunity for the Legion
"If the American Legion will but
live up to its declarations" he said,
this society will mean much in Ameri-
can affairs. 1t will have a great nhu-
cnce on our people, for it stands for
all the fine things in American citizen
ship. 1t is in better position to solve
the difficulties with which we are con-
fronted than any other organization we
have, because its members have been
privileged to have experiences never
granted to any other generation.
Our army made a record for moral
ity and clean living never made before
by any army Of any country at any
time. The Legion has many splendid
principles, but | wish to Law stress
upon two in particular. lt stands for
law and order believing that this is a
country of laws, not Of men, and has
set for itself the task of making clear
that 1t stands for the Constitution Of

see an organization promising so much

progress
