will win Mir. Davis's own election dis trict by large majority"
 Then Mir. Shaver will reply that Following talks with the democratic scouts in Massachusetts it appears that John W. Davis is far stronger in Pres ident Coolidge's home state than Pres ident Coolidge is himself"
 Before that campaign is over it will be a wonder if one or the other of the campaign managers doesn't, predict that his candidate will carry the City of Washington and not realize until af- terward that no one can vote in Wash ington.
 Here ise what Chairman Butler says the republicans are going to do:
 We are going to leave decrying, deriding and deploring to other peo- pie. The character of our candidate, the strength of our platform and our record of postwar achievement through the difficult years of this republican ad- mihistration enable us to depend on an affirmative campaign. I believe the nation is more interested in accom- 2lishment than promises"
 According to Mir. Butler himself it will be his purpose to make the cam paign an exposition of the character and redprd of President Coolidge. He wants the voters Ito reach the con sidered conclusion that Mir. Coolidge is an ideal President"
 It will be up to Shaver to persuade the voters that John W. Davis would make an ideal President. Shaver and Davis have been close personal friends for years, just as President Coolidge 0nd Mir. Butler have been.
 Regardless of the plans that But Ter and Shaver make, the campaign will ultimately be one of personalities Not personalities in the sense that the term is generally used in politics bu: in the sense that an appeal will b, made to the people to consider the diff ference between President Coolidge's personality and Mir. Davis personal ity.
 Chairman Butler will see to it that General Dawes does most of the speak ing for the republican ticket. He will have President Coolidge do his talking over the radio. Not that the Presi dents voice sounds particularly melleN over the radio but because it fails t. carry an Over-impressive tone from tht rear end of Pullman car.
 Directly Before People. Chairman Shaver will make every eff fort to get his candidates face and voice directly before the people, espe- cially the people of the east, where ] President Coolidge is strongest. He

To accuse an innocent person wrongfully for years to let suspicion drive him away from home among strangers at the time of life when he was most in need of kindness and a home and parental love-to discover finally the mistake and be able to make amends before it is too late
 This was possible only through a Personal" Want Ad in the classified pages of The Age-Herald.
 And yet newspapers claim they are impersonal-mere- ly news organs simplifying the events of the day with out color or bias, except in editorials! -. But turn to the classified section and read until you come to Personals" or Notices" and it will be seen that the "I" predominates. There the newspapers can right wrongs, claim redress, utter legal warnings, protect personal property, sound desperate and heartbreaking appeals to friend or family.
 But to go back to the be- ginning of this Romance:
 James Nipple and his wife adopted a baby from an or- phanage asylum in their lit tie town. They knew noth- ing of his percentage. Mrs. Nipple wanted a boy with blue eyes. Beside that, this one had curly hair and an appealing mouth.
 He grew up into a likeable youngster and they were proud of him. He showed only one serious fault-he did have a casual way of ap- propriating things without saying anything about it, and the Nipples both feared he might have an evil heri- tage to fight-that his un- known father might have been a thief.
 So they watched him care fully-too carefully.
 MT, Nipple was an elec-

them out of order. I wish you'd keep him from going there," he said to his wife.
 Howard was 16' then.
 One night after MT. Hip pie had sent him out of the. store in the afternoon, the store was broken into about midnight and some batteries and flashlights taken. Not a big loss, but it looked as if the burglar had been fa- miliar with the store.
 Even the suspicion might not have been directed to Howard had he not dis played some money and ex- plained he had gotten it by selling some old electrical supplies his father had given him to a "kid." Then the Bergen boy, who worked

Campaign Managers, How ever, Are Adopts In
 Minor Politics

NEW YORK, Aug. 16.-One of the remarkable things about the forthcofn- ing presidential campaign is that both Mir. Coolidge and MT. Davis have se- lected for their campaign managers men who were unknown in national politics at the time of their selection.
 No one outside of Massachusetts had ever heard of William M. Butler when President Coolidge picked him to sue ceed John T. Adams and there were few who even knew that Clem l.. Shaver of West Virginia, existed until John W. Davis was nominated at Mad ison Square Garden. Shaver was prom inent in his home state, but there are West Virginia whose names never be- come familiar beyond the boundary line.
 Even now Butler and Shaver are comparatively unknown to the people at large. Their pictures have long published in the newspapers and long stories have been written about them, but neither has ever said or done any thing to attract unusual attention. Un- til one of them does, every effort to popularize him will fail.
 Campaign managers are like brides. They assume a new responsibility full of hope that they have tied up to the right man. A bride who has never been a bride before knows nothing of married life. Neither Shaver nor But Ter has ever managed a national cam paign and neither has any practical experience along these lines.
 They are both small town politi- cians suddenly lifted out of compara- tive obscurity and placed before tAe nation as spokesmen for the two lead ing political figures in the country.
 Wait For Events.
 There is really nothing for either Shaver or Butler. to do but stand around and wait for something to hap pen. After they have appointed thu various regional campaign directors ana subcommittee chairmen they can mako tour of the country, if they want to and then start predicting.
 Coolidge will carry everything including Clarksburg, W. Va. Mir. But Ter will say. After conferences with the republican leaders in that town have come to the conclusion that we
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-08-17

will let Governor Bryan do the talk ing west of the Mississippi.
 Shaver and Butler are as different as the two men they represent. The campaign manager for John w. Davis cares little about his personal appearance. If he has a necktie and suit that match he never wears them at the same time His hair is gener- ally mussed as though he had been up all night running his hands through it and his trousers and coat look as if they hadn't been pressed since General Grant smoked his first cigar.
 William M. Butler is just opposite ir this respect. When the gentleman from New Bedford receives visitors he looks as though he were dressed either for lawn party or a dance on board q houseboat in the Hudson. He has several pairs of white trousers with crease sharp enough to cut your fin ger. He usually wears light gray coat, gray tie, and highly polished black shoes, yn
 Butler is a dead ringer for former Governor Nathan l.. Miller of New York He is slightly heavier but in almost every other respect bears a striking resemblance to the man who was elected governor of New York in 1920.
 The manager for Mir. Coolidge is very particular about his clothes. He must be dressed just so before appearing in public or he won't appear. Clem Shaver doesn't give a whoop how he's dressed as long as he's dressed.
 Ignorant About Publicity.
 Both Shaver and Butler have got lot to learn about handling publicity for their respective candidates.
 When Mir. Davis returned home from Dark HarbOr, Maine, the other day Shaver kept the newspaper men wait ing just long enough to miss two or three early editions before he saw them. Not that the newspaper men cared, but Mir. Shaver might have had bis candidates name on the front page | in four editions instead of two if he had been ready sooner with the announce ments he had to make.
 There may or may not be a daily paper in Clarksburg, W. Va, but MT. Shaver ought to familiarize himself with the number of dailies in New York City and the number of news agencies that serve out-of-town dailies. On the day that Mir. Davis arrived fro ,mMaine he made statement rel ativc to his attitude on Mobilization Day. It was timely and the papers were anxious to get it. More than a score of reporters waited outside the room where Shaver and Davis were in conference for nearly an hour. When Shaver finally appeared with his can didate's statement he had scarcely a dozen copies of it, hardly enough to
The Birmingham age-herald., 1924-08-17

discussed the whole matter with his wife and told her his suspicious,
 q didn't dare ask this kid, for fear I'd find out that Howard had sold it to him" he told her. And 1 guess 1 won't follow things up, be- cause it will reflect as much on us as on Howard, if he did break in."
 Howard heard them talk ing.
 The next day he stole a ride in a truck to the nearest town and from there got on the train and came to the city. He wrote to his mother and told her that. if she would admit he was inno- cent and wanted him back, she could send him a letter to the General Delivery.

4 water as their populaFtiop, too, was in creasing faster than facilities for talk ing care of it. Some unkind New Yorker flippantly remarked that the New Jersey towns were as hard press ed for water that keeping gold fish had come to be disloyal to the com munity even in suburban homes. The building of the Great Notch Tunnel from Wanaque Dam is expected to re- lieve at least temporarily the general water shortage in New Jersey.
 When people use exactly eight times as much water every day as they weigh, as is the case with New York city's population, they aren't snubbing such auxiliary water supply, systems as could be constructed in Westchester county, if the situation becomes too serious. These systems would be small, however, and used only to help out the big new system New York engineers must work out.
 The Delaware river may, and prob ably will, furnish our new source of drinking water. If so, in a sense, New York will be going to the neigh bors for her water supply as the head quarters of the Delaware are in the state of Pennsylvania. Three states really have claim on the Delaware. They are Pennsylvania, where it ori- ginates, and New Jersey and New York, where it flows. If New York does use Delaware river water, then she will get water from the river as it flows into New York state. The en- tire system of pipes and tunnels to car " the water to the city can be built hot. ,kaF
 If the rainfall in New York state continues to be as abundant in the fu- ture as it has been in the past, New York city can construct water supply systems that will take care of her pop ulatiOn for many years. A scarcity of rainfall in New York such as is be- ing experienced on the western ecoast would, in short time, affect the popu- lation of the metropolis. Since the population has increased out of all pro- portion to the area covered, if the,fain- fall lessens in the small vicinity sur rounding this city, then New York may find her glories listed with those of Greece and Rome and her people migrating for lack of fresh water as did the Mediterranean peoples hun dreds of years ago for the same req son.
 Wall street brokers seem remark able to the average person because they are supposed to live six months ahead of the rest of the country in thei- business. They seem e mmonplaca compared to New York's engineers who are living ten years in advance of the rest of the city, preparing for a heed less population of the future, which ten years from now will be pretty well divided between gratitude and indif- ference when the new water supply system will be finished and given them.

But MT. Nipple wouldn't let her write to him.
 "I'm afraid he's got bad blood in him and we're bet ter rid of him. He might get us into a lot of trouble some day and we'd have to help him out and lawyers cost lots of money. Sometimes they bleed parents fer every cent they've got to de- fend their sons. I know he stole those things and sold them to some kids in town. Maybe he took some of 'em to the city with him."

 They got a letter finally from a clerk in a hospital, who wrote that they had a patient, Howard Nipple. The boy had been working as delivery boy for a florist shop and his small delivery truck had been crashed into by a big truck, injuring him so severely that he probably wouldn't live.
 Both parents came at once to the city and saw Howard before he died.
 It was a big comfort to talk to him and ask his for giveness, and to make the last few days a little happier for him, and to give him a funeral ''back home" and bury him in the Nipple lot in the little cemetery on the hill.
 Never as long as they lived, will either cease to be grateful to the Want Ad medium and the little Want Ad that made this possible.

 You. boys will have to divide thess up," he drawled.
 Butler too has lot to learn about presenting his candidate to the news papers and getting the full amount of publicity the occasion warrants. When he was in New York a few weeks ago, Chairman Butler summoned the repre- sentatives of the evening papers to his suite at the Biltmore one morning with the promise of a story. He entered the room with a prepared statement setting forth lot of facts that had appeared in the morning papers hours before. If the reporters hadn't literally grabbed him and demanded something new there would have been but scant mention of the Coolidge campaign in the papers that night.
