Notice was given that the measure would have to be compiled with before June 1. hut many persons failed to pay any atten tion. The health board permitted sev eral more opportunities to comply, hut ! some persons would not heed.

Magical Effect of New Face Peeler To maintain a clear, white, youthful complexion, there's nothing so simple to use and yet so effective as ordinary mercollzed wax, which you ran Ret at any drug store. Just apply the wax at night as you would cold cream. In the morning wash it off with warm water. If you've never tried It you can't Im agine the magical effect of this harm less home treatment. It causes the old worn-out scarf skin to come off In minute particles, a little at a tiir.e. and soon you have entirely shed the offen sive cuticle. The fresh young under skm now in evidence Is so healthy and girlish looking, so free from any ap pearance of artificiality, you wonder why you had not heard of this marvel ous complexion-renewing secret long ago. Equally magical In Its action is a simple wrinkle-removing lotion made by dissolving an of powdered saxoltte In a half pint of witch hazel. Bathing ihe face In this for two or three minutes Immediately affects everv line and furrow and Improves facial contour wonderfully.—Advertisement. AMATEUR WIRE LESS OPERATORS By Frederic J. Haskin [Continued From Editorial Page.] grade are the same, as nearly as they can be shown In writing. An examin ing officer is given discretion to waive the examination in person of an appli unt at some distance, provided his Written examination satisfies the offl- 1 cer that he is qualified for a license and will fulfill its obligations. There are not sufficient inspecting officers to cover the whole country, and they are chiefly located along the coast. It would be a hardship to deprive a youngster of a license he Is qualified to hokl because he cannot present him self for examination. Many of the most efficient amateur operators hold second grade licenses. They have picked up their qualification with no other aid than by corresponding with the authorities. Assign Call Signal Each wireless operator has his own call signal, which is assigned to him by the Bureau of Standards after he has passed a satisfactory examination granting him a license. He also re ceives a book giving the location of every wireless station in the country trnd the call signal and name of its operator. He is at liberty to get into communication with any or all of them, according to his ability to trans mit messages. Most of the amateur operators show a desire to keep within the law in all respects. They have set up their sta tions chiefly for pleasure and realize that disobedience would involve a sus pension of privileges. Violation of the law is also punlsnable by a fine. The Hureau of Standards is always willing to test amateur machines for a nominal fee. An Increasing num ber of boys are making their own instruments as a part of their work in technical high school. The Bureau of Standards gives advice to instructors in these schools as to the materials best adapted to amateur work. It also gives free Individual Instruction to any boy who asks for it, as hundreds are doing. Few days pass In which a con fidential letter io not received by the radio-engineer of the bureau from some boy asking whether his machine will meet the requirements of the law. No girls have as yet qualified as I licensed Qperators, although it is stated unofficially that hundreds of girls arc transmitting messages in sta tions controlled by their licensed brothers. Many French girls have qualified as wireless operators and are now in active service In the war zone. Mechaniicsbur? Scene of Series of Petty Robberies Special to The Telegraph Mechanlcsburg.
