CENTRAL PENNSYLVAN
ANNIVERSARY OF
FIREMEN'S UNION
West Shore Organization Has
Been Doing Good Work Dur
ing Its First Year
Enola, Pa., Jan. 9. Plans for
celebrating the first anniversary of
the organization of the West Shore
Firemen's Union were outlined at a
meeting held at Midway Firehouse
last night. J. E. Myers, G. W. Shaeffer
and H. H. Rice were appointed on the
committee to arrange for the affair,
which is to be held at Wormleysburg
In March.
Further plans were discussed in
launching the fight against the River
ton Consolidated Water Company.
The Union charges the company with
furnishing impure water, inadequate
pressure, charging unreasonable wa
ter rates and requiring people to pay
for the water meters. The Union de
cided to hire the services of an at
torney to carry on the fight.
Money is needed for this fight and
each member was given a petiUon
which he will show to every resident
of his district asking assistance. As
soon as SIOO is collected a report will
be made to the Union. The Rev. A.
G. Wolf, of West Fairview, Li. L.
Hamacher and J. S. Cummings, of
Lemoyne were appointed a committee
to visit each West Shore council In an
effort to enlist their services in the

Big Business Men Buy Life
Insurance Big
A few years ago the death of a man leaving SIOO,-
000.00 Life Insurance occasioned considerable com
ment.
But now big business and professional men buy
even larger amounts of both personal and corpur
i ation Life Insurance.
It is because they realize that some definite substitute for
a part, at least, of their producUve ability must remain
after they are gone.
Is the ratio of your Life Insurance to your present income
large enough? Probably not. But a Premium Savings
Account enables you to carry as much as you should, with
out embarrassment.
ANY LIFE INSURANCE MAN IN HARitISBIJRG WILL
GLADLY TELL YOU MORE ABOUT THIS.

Try This If You
Have Dandruff
There is one sure way that never
falls to remove dandruff completely
and that is to dissolve it. This des
troys it entirely. To do this, just get
about four ounces of plain, ordinary
liquid -arvon; apply it at night when
retiring; use enough to moisten the
scalp and rub it in gently with the
finger tips.
By morning, most if not all, of your
dandruff will be gone, and threo or
four more applications will completely
dissolve and entirely destroy every
single sign and trace of it, no mat
ter how much dandruff you may have.
You will find, too, that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop in
stantly, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any
drug store. It Is inexpensive, and four
ounces is all you will need. This sim
ple remedy has never been known to
fall.
HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
1 Buy Goodyears and
1 You Buy Satisfaction
The ainl of the Goodyear factories and the desire of the
| average tire-buyer meet perfectly in Goodyear Tires.
| ]j|lp Ay Both seek the same goal —maximum mileage at
| III \\n//\ minimum cost.
| | SIIMMM / Wjffi The Goodyear factories work toward this end by put
is | ting into their product the best of materials, under
| | the best of methods and the best of manufacturing
| IriH 111 Vara rdii2jiJ| conditions.
| fjyuj The tire-buyer does his part by paying a price that
5 _' /Yl/ will allow such selection and construction.
That this price should not appreciably exceed ordinary
tire prices is, of course, largely due to Goodyear man
ufacturing economies —to compact and intensive
organization, to expert and effective effort, to the
5 elimination of wastage wherever possible.
But it is also greatly due to the part the average tire
buyer has had in the development of this institution
—to his consistent and increasing patronage, which
has built up our present tremendous volume.
For great volume is the parent of manufacturing
economy.
E So both parties who seek high virtue in a motor car
tire, maker and buyer, have helped to put it in the
Goodyear Tire.
And a third party, until now unmentioned here, has
helped as well.
The Goodyear Service Station Dealer.
You will find him in the obscure villages, in the larger
| towns, in the tremendous cities of America, always
within easy reach.
His interest is the same as ours that you shall
= have maximum mileage and satisfaction from
Goodyear Tires.
His purpose is identical with ours —to hold your busi
ness by getting your friendship, by giving you service.
I He does it, first, by selling you Goodyear Tires, and
second, by helping you care for them.
He is an essential in the Goodyear "greater mileage
| triangle" of maker, user, dealer.
| Go to him the next time you want a tire. He is
| foregoing extra discounts that he may sell you better
1 tires. He is a good man for you to know and to deal
with.
= Goodyear Tires, Heavy Tourist Tubes and "Tire Saver" Accessories
EE are easy to get from Goodyear Service Station Dealers everywhere.
