"100T BODY TO START
OR WING PRINCIPLES
Subcommittees to Meet Mon
day Will Discuss Mayoralty
Candidates and Declaration
BIG SESSION WEDNESDAY
The executive and platform committees
of tlio committee of one liumlrcft are
expected to meet Monday afternoon to
consider the names of men mentioned
for candidates for Mnyor and start the
work of drawing up n declaration of
principles.
The entire committee is to meet at
the City Club Wednesday afternoon. It
was said today that the executive com
mittee might decide Monday on the
men It considers available as Independ
ent candidates.
The executive committee is h,eadcd by
John Hampton Barnes and the plat
form committee by Thomas Itacburn
White.
Senator Penrose, who has been in
"Washington since last Sunday, is not
expected to return to Philadelphia be
fore Monday. After that he will spend
the greater part of his time here work
ing in the campaign.
Penrose to Talie "Rest"
It was said at the office of the Sen
ator today that he would probably go
to Atlantic City tomorrow "for a rest."
His followers here state it is more
likely he will visit the seashore to con
ifer with Select Councilman Charles
Seger, leader of the Seventh ward, ltotlt
Penrose and the Vares appear anxious
to win the nid of Councilman Seger
in the approaching fight. The council
man is spending the season at the shore.
A central headquarters will be openi I
by the combined Pcurose-Independcnt
forces to direct the mayoralty light.
Both the present Republican Alliance
headquarters, 14'M) South Pcnn square,
and the Town Meeting headquarters in
the Transportation Building, 20 South
Fifteenth street, will be continued.
Activities of the committee of one
hundred will be directed from the new
headquarters, which will be opened as
Boon as a candidate for the mayoralty
nomination has been ehos.cn.
Following the selection of the mayor
alty candidate, a campaign committee,
Which probably will be headed by
George AV. Coles, chairman of the Town
Meeting paity, is to be appointed.
. Hints that Vnrc men arc taking ad
vantage of the differences between the
Independents and Alliance -men over the
man to be indorsed for the mayoralty
are convejod frpi the Town Meeting
and Alliance headquaiters.
Vares Sowing Discord
Varcitcs, it is intimated, arc carry
ing on a propaganda for the purpose
of sowing discord among the indepen
dents. Encouragtment of the Winston boom
for Mayor and the influx of council
maniac candidates arc attributed to the
Vare propaganda.
Candidates for Council on the Inde
pendent side continue to crop up almost
daily. In an effort to head them oft
and present a united fiont against the
regular organization, headquarters will
bi'ii'alntuined in all the senatorial dis
trict. The first one of these to be opened
will be in the Fifth distiict, where head
quarters have been leased at Diamond
street and Gcmuintown avenue.
In political circles Judge John M.
Patterson is being generally accepted as
the man who will bo the standard
bearer of the Ilepubliran -organization.
Charter Itecord Good
Judge Patterson's popularity and his
presence on the chaiter revision commit
tee njp counted on by organization men
to make inroads on the independent vote.
His announcement of his willingness to
, run is the strongest declaration made so
far by any of the possible candidates
who have been mentioned on either side.
Assessment figures certified to the
' county commissioners by the registra
'tion commissioners fix the last De
cember assessment at 417,73!) voters.
On this number will be based the ap
portipnraent of the number of the new
Council.
It will consist of twenty-one mem
bers as originally planned for in the
charter bill.
FILING TIME ENDS THURSDAY
Nominating Petitions for Judgeship
'Are Coming In Fast
Time for filing nominating petitions

tered at the office' of the secretary of
the commonwealth notwithstanding tftc
fae that Pennsylvania this fall will elect
eighteen Common Pleas and five Or
phans' Court judges In Philadelphia and
a County Court judge in Allegheny.
The office of associate judge appears

more than thirty petitions on file for the
fourteen judgeships.

numerous petitions from aspirants for
county and municipal nominations, al
though Buch papers have to be filed with
county commissioners. The time on this

Philadelphia Architect Hears Wash

Honor where honor's due.
Tlierc's nn architectural tribute to
frenzied "kettle and pan" syncopation
in the capital city of the United Stutes.
And Albert Kelsey, the Philadelphia
architect, during a reeeut trip to Wash
ington, discovered lie's responsible for
it. Here's the stoij :
A while back Mr. Kelsey designed
the Pan-American building in Wash
ington. And one of the most delight
ful features of it is the "Jade Fence."
a low wall circling a fountain. The
wall is reminiscent of the picturesque
Aztec and is in lieh green stucco with
a wealthy variety of color in terra cotta.
Mr. Kelsey was strolling over the
giouuds yesterday when he happened
upon a group of sightseers trailing after
an official guide.
The guide was sajing as he pointed
to Mr. Kelsey's jade fence:
"Ladies nnd gentlemen, to your right
j-ou will observe the most distinctive
architectural gem in. this city of beauty.
It is known to students of beauty and
to sculptors and architects as the
famous 'Jazz' Fence."
Mr. Kelsey is still chuckling.

Have you given up golf in
hot weather? Do you leave
before a ball game is half
over? Do you find it hard
to sleep?
Do your corsets make you
miserable? Do you perspire
over-freely? Does your skin
become so irritated that you
are a nervous wreck in hot
weather?
Do diaper rash and teeth
ing rash make your tender
skin all blotchy and raw so
that you are a very un
happy, fretful baby?

Kora-Konia relieves and
heals chafed skin. It is
perspiration-proof, will not
readily wash away, "stays
put" all day. Use Kora
Konia and be glad.
A doctor gave us the idea
for Kora-Konia. It is used
in hospitals to relieve bed
patients. Kora-Konia
soothes and heals. Great
for sunburn.
Kora-Konia gives instant
relief to little chafed legs.
It dries up raw spots and
adheres. Kora-Konia has
changed many cqes into
coos.
