New York.
Davis Ignorant OF 1t
The Home Town club members
have financed it all.
when we started the Home Town
club Mr.. Davis was across the wa
ter. He was ambassador to Great
Britain. He didn't know a thing
about it. We urged his nomination
at San Francisco. When Ambassa-
dor Davis visited this country he
came home on a trip, he dropped
into Clarksburg and asked us what
all this was about We told him.
He said he wasn't candidate. He
tried to discourage US, but we
wouldn't be discouraged.
'"The Home Town club task includ-
the writing of letters to prominent
democrats throughout the country
telling Of Davis availability. We
sent out some literature. We an
swered every letter, and followed up
those letters that there were ia
vorable. In this way we planted
the seed for the Davis boom. We
did no travelling around. We simply
planted a letter here and there
throughout the country.
when we came to New Yok,
we felt that every prominent demo-
crat in the country knew something
of the Davis movement. We felt
that Davis claims for the honor
were we'll known to the leaders. Upon
reaching here, we quickly realized
that Davis stood no chance unless
the deadlock between Governor
Smith and VIM. G. McAdoo was
broken. Therefore, our policy was
to wait until the delegates were
free. We knew that Davis had no
chance until they were free. We
were not responsible for the sud-
den Davis flash in the convention
balloting about a week ago. We
did not favor that policy. Our pol
icy was to wait. That Davis flash
however, revealed to US that we had
planted the seed pretty well through
out the country.
Encouraged by Rally
'It encouraged us instead OF dis
coura ging us. We knew some rea,
Davis sentiment was hidden behind
the McAdoo and Smith instructions.
and all we had to do was to abide
our time until the convention was
free. That time and the country
knows the result"

Davis, as a Boy, Sent
To Girls School to
Overcome Shyness

CLARKSBURG, w. Va, July 10.
Many schoolday chums of John w.
Davis, Democratic nominee for the
presidency, today found it hard to
realize that the bashful youth of
years gone by had risen to his pres.
ent post in the public eye.
Johns bashfulness as boy, his
friends said, led his parents to take
extreme measures. His school
chums, time and again, found John
going out Of his way to avoid meet
ing girl acquaintance. The parents
approached Prof. George Young. who
conducted a preparatory school for
girls here. BY special permission,
John and one other Clarksburg lad
were admitted to the school. But
even this close contact with the girls
failed to show an immediate effect,
and it was not until he had com
pleted his course of study that he
lost his bashfulness.

CHOICE OF COLOR
VERY IMPORTANT
Appearance of House Made
or Marred in the Painting.

Every home owner wishes his house
to be as attractive to the onlooker and
passerby as possible. If the house has
been constructed of wood. nothing that
the owner may do win go so far to-
ward improving the exterior appear
anoe as paint.
AS Mr.. @. Z. Utley, manager of the
Marion Paint Company, says, 1T is
absolutely surprising how much diff
ference the right kind Of painting
makes Color should be chosen care
fully, bearing in mind the location,
surroundings and shape and size of
the house. After the main color has
been chosen. equally great care must
be taken in respect to the color fo~
trimming 1t has been found that trim
greatly accentuates the lines of the
house so unless these are artistic and
rightfully proportioned, it Is much
more advisable to dispense with the
trim.
We sell direct to the consumer from
our own factory and thus are able to
save the consumer the middleman s
profit Our paints are Of the highest
grade, made of ingredients that are
free from foreign properties. 1t never
pays to buy cheap paint, for it not only
makes a very unsatisfactory job from
the standpoint of appearance, but it
does not wear and in a very short
while will check, blister or deteriorate.
