TRICKERY CONTINUES
Pastmaster at the art of political trickery, henchmen of the Judge Fine-
Arthur Nicholson political gang this week attempted to break into the strong
| Sixh district organization of G. Harold Wagner by calling up Wagner workers
“and telling them a compromise had been reached between Wagner and Fine-
Nicho son and that it was no longer necessary to work for Wagner. ~Qrms
of the compromise were, they said, that, Wagner was to withdraw in favor or
~ Bonin. In return the IMine-Nicholson gang would withdraw Aston in favor of
Morga. Nothing could have bee further from the truth or lower in the depths
_ of dirty politics to which the Fine-Nicholson outfit is wont to stoop.
? x Te strength of Wagner is undisputed throughout Luzerne County. So
favorable has been the trend to Wagner in the past few weeks that Bonin
! supporters are seriously put and making effort ehrough whatever means at
7 hand to weaken his organization. Headquarters of Fine-Nicholson have made
determined efforts to break into the Sixth district but have been unsuccessful.
All Fie-Nicholson workers in the district have been called into headquarters
on nunierous occasions and have been asked to do everything possible to
weaken Wagner's lead, but on every occasion they have, reported the districet
tlk solid for Wagner.
The support of Union Labor and of the Water Sonsumers have given
Wagner much added strength. Another example of pelitical trickery and decep-
~ tion are the now famous posters being distributed by Fine-Nicholson and the
advertising of oe Ray Davis, who claims to be seeking the Prothonotaryship.
~ The posters are headed with the name of Judge Valentine and then follows
the names of men on the Fine-Nicholso ticket. eBlow is the captio: “Men
°
hat
ry
: Who Inspire Confidence.” It will take more than the name of Judge Vales-
tine, who is everybody’s choice ad a member of no faction, to put the Finé
Nicholson ticket across. But trickery is a part of the Fime-Nicholson organi-
zation.
: ‘to attempt to keep dummy candidates on the balloe, could not help but inspire
trickery and ‘deception in the hirelings of their organization.

THE PROPER WAY TO “SUN-TAN”
Most fads are foolish, vain and short lived. This summer, however, we
have with us a fad that I hope has come to stay. I refer to “sun-tan’—bnut
not the drug store variety.
There are on the market creams and lotions which guarantee to give the
wearer a igoautiful ccat of tan without coming in contact with the sun.
There are beauty parlors who specialize in the sun-tan treatment by means
of artificial light.
inevitable; not everyone has the leisure time to bask on the beach. And yet—
a genuine sun bath, if taken only once a week, is by far the most healthful and
satisfactory method of acquiring that bronzed look. ,
It goes without saying that the sun-tan creams and lotions are utterly
useless, as far as any beneficial properties are concerned. The sun lamp, on
the other hand, really has health value and is indispensable in the treatment
of certain disorders. But even that is only a substitute for the sun.
' Get your sun-tan first hand! Besides beautifuying your appearance
and keeping you up with the latest fashion, if will also improve your general
physical condition and give you the sparkle and vigor thak makes even the
homely person attractive.
But sun-tan also has its attending dangers. I have heard of several over-
enthusiastic young people this summer who have become dagnreously ill
through excessive sunburn. There is not much difference between a severe
sunburn, and a severe steam burn. People have died from both.
Lying for hours at a time in the sun is as bad as no sun at all. Moreover,
it is not the way to acquire an even, pretty coat of tan, for with excessive sun-
burn the skin peels and the tender, flaming underskin is exppsed to the sun
causes this skin to blister and peel again. This can go on indefinitely.
\ For beauty and health. results take your sun baths gradually. Begin
with only fifteen 'minutes exposure. Next time add fifteen minutes. Increase
the time according! to the texture and pigment of your skin. Thin skin naturally
burns more quickly. Auburn or sandy haired people sometimes find it im- |
~ possible ever to acquire a coat of ‘tan. They merely burn.
