ton and maintenance of the lines,

Company, The American Telephone
and Telegraph Company and the
Newark Telephone Company. In all
the period Of service he made good
and earned the respect of all three
Of those great employers of labor for
his.
His work with the named COM
panies attracted the attention of
Sheriff Vogelmeier, who was also en-
gagged in contract work on roads be-
fore his second advent into politics.
In February 1923 Mr.. Vogelmeier ap-
pointed Mr.. Foulk as a deputy sheriff
Mr.. Vogelmeier has at all times since
felt that the appointment was good
one. Mr.. Foulk and from the matter
entrusted to him the more intricate
and delicate work of the office. Mr.
FOulk has enforced the law, always,
going at all hours of the night in all
weather and road conditions. One of
his trying functions was that Of en-
forcing the dog laws and his care in
that matter has gone far toward saw
ing the flock masters of the county
from loss. Most every person in
the county knows him as a good safe
and efficient officer who has always
acted within the bounds of the law
and given all square deal. He says
that if the choice of the people should
ultimately rest on him he will fill the
office in that way.
Mr.. Foulk is member of the Fair
mont Presbyterian church, as regu-
lar in his attendance as a deputy
sheriff could be. He is also valued

AMERICANS SEEK
SIGHT OF ROYALTY
This Is Declared First Goal
of 100000 Going to Brit
ain This Season.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 3.-What will the
$50 900 American visitors who are ex-
pected this year in England enjoy
most?
This question was propounded by
the Associated Press to number Of
tourist agents and hotel men.
Royalty and it's trappings, was
the unheSitating answer of many OF
the Americans and Englishmen who
have to do with the tourist traffic.
King and queens and princes and
palaces have greater fascination for
Americans than for Continental WIS.,
itors. The latter, SO the tourist agents
say, have had greater experience or
royalty and accept it as matter OF
course.
Red Coated Guards.
The changing of the relocated
guards before Buckingham Palace at
1890 every morning always attracts
many strangers, and the changing of
the guard at Whitehall every morn
ing at II o'clock draws even a greater
crowd.
London Tower, with it's murderous
history; Hampton Court and other
palaces associated with the life of
Henry VIII and his unhappy wives,
have a special charm for American
visitors. Even the men and women
who are but slightly versed in English
history know about Anne Boleyn.
Catherine of Aragon and the other
unhappy ladies who sat on the throne
with him.
Museums. galleries and theaters
which enable visitors to get back into
the atmosphere of the EliZabethan era
are most popular, especially with Wis
itors coming to England for the first
time. Shakespeare and Drake are so
inseparably connected with the reign
of Queen Elizabeth that they share
the popularity of the virgin queen in
the estimation Of tourists.
The Old Vic, with it's never-ending
season of Shakespeare, and the
Shakespearian Theater at Stratford
afford visitors an opportunity to see
the plays of the Bard of Avon in case
the theaters in the heart of London
are not offering Shakespeare.
Warwick Castle Attracts.
Tallyhos and old inns-in fact, any
thing which reproduces the atmos-
phere of old English prints-have a
great attraction for American visitors.
Warwick Castle, so the tourist agents
say, comes nearer, perhaps, than any
other to filling the eye of Americans
in search of real castle, with walls
and meats and drawbridges and ar
NOR and a banquet hall in which the
knights OF the Round Table might be
sitting.
There is a considerable Dickens cult
among the American visitors, and
many of them are eager to visit the
home of Burns and the haunts of
Wordsworth and other poets In the
English lake district. University folk
generally want to visit Oxford and
Cambridge.
But the majority of American Wis
itors give most of their time to Lon
don and points within easy reach of
the British capital
