LONG|LLNESSA! TARRYTOWN TODAY
DO POI CLANS
REST ON SUND.! A Az
ecor.inued fr.o,p, pare one,

church Between Worrying about
what they did on Saturday and
what they have to do on Monday,
Sunday is a wonderful day:
No matter how warm the primary
campaign may be waxing In some
sections, the Bluefield Telegraph
can't see that Mercer County Is at
all wrought up over the matter
This paper says:
There is scarcely aripple on the
political waves about the county
seat. In fact, there is not one Yot-
er in ten who knows when the prl-
mary election is to be held, nor one
in twenty who can name all the
candidates who desire to serve the
people as nominees of either party.
It appears. at this stage the primary
is to go by default, as none appar-
emily, save one or two candidates,
is paying any attention to year 1922
being an election year. There Is
vet time for numerous candidates
to enlist and plead their worthiness
before the election. but few have SO
far awaited themselves of that op-
portunity. 1t is known one or two
are looking with anxious eyes to-
ward a certain office or two. The
bait is very tempting, but in these
instances, those thus afflicted fear
a hidden trap before the bait eau
be reached You know, a man in
politics is very much like one slid
ing down a plank; mighty apt to
strike rusty nail now and then.
From the mass of political talk
about the county seat, it is the con-
sens1s ofNopinion there will be no
row among the Democratic candl-
dates for nomination. And virtual
1y the same can be said for the Re-
publican nominees, excepting one or
two offices, and probably some
which are not county Offices"
Announcement has been made in
Wheeling that headquarters for the
campaign of II. c. Ogden for the
Republican senatorial nomination
have been opened in the Garvin
Building in Wheeling. which is To-
Gated in Chapline street, directly
across from city hall. n. G. Under
wood. clerk of the board of Ohio
County commissioners, is in charge,
and he has associated with him
Howard Hastings. former sheriff of
Ohio County, and James McHenry.

The Nelson

IL - >. y o.
.s Tom Mix has never been looked
upon as comedian, but in @Chas-
ing the Moon," he has shown that
he Is quite as much at home in
comedy as in the roles of western
life for which he is best known.
When he combines both action
and fun, as he does in the vehicle
in which he is appearing at the
Nelson today, he puts into it the
same spirit and enthusiasm that
have characterized his former
efforts.
Eva Novak, as the sweetheart,
who believes her lover (Tom Mix)
should do something useful, in
stead OF spending his time and
money SO lavishly in having a
good time appears also in a new
role, but is ideally cast.
News and comedy are the added
features.

fun and witticism, and even those

break into society, with nothing
to commend them but their check
