COLUMBUS, o., July 2S-There
are three kinds of men: The men that
men like (and women dont), the
men women like land men don't) and
the men who are liked by both men
and women-the kind of men wo-
man both likes and trusts.
| should say Governor James M.
Cox belongs to this third class, winch
is the smallest class of all. l believe
women will vote for him.
Women choose on personality raUh-
err than on politics. Sometimes tney

As you know, he is SHADE un9er
the average height, of sturdy buIld,
hut without stockiness. His head IS
