Life Line: x By Dr. Albert Klein i ~ICan Tell The : Weather is Changing "My lumbago bothers me." "My |tarthritis acts up when a storm is on its way." "When my football injured knees ache, I know it's going to rain." :.. We have probably laughed at times “when people have made the above state- shénts, Yet it is true that many people [edn predict changes in the weather, [Sometimes as accurately as the televi- $10n forecasters who have modern so- ‘phisticated equipment. » The key to health is the ability to jadapt. Those whose bodies are adapting swell can handle drastic changes in the ‘weather. Those whose bodies are not ‘adapting well cannot. That is why when ithe weather suddenly changes, particu- ‘larly in the early spring and late fall months, there are many more people swith colds and flu, Some people have a ‘difficult time adapting to the extreme .changes in temperature which are more ‘common during those times of the year. : Individuals with arthritis, joint dys- ‘function, and even old sports injuries ‘have tissues that are not as healthy as théy should be. Consequently, when the barometric pressure changes, indicat- ing that bad weather is on the way, they know it. The healthy tissues adapt to thatchange in the atmospheric pressure, the unhealthy tissues do not. This causes pain and discomfort in those areas. Knowing that they have the ability to forecast a storm is probably of little consolation to those suffering joint prob- terns. They would gladly trade that abil- ity for a body that was healthy. Chiropractic does not treat arthritis or any other joint problems. Chiropractic is intended to enable your body to adapt better. The nervous system is the most important system in the body aiding in adaptation. Subluxations, slight fnisalignments of the vertebrae in the spine, interfere with the ability of the nervous system to function as it should and hence reduce the body's ability to adapt. Chiropractors correct ubluxations, improving the adaptive ability of the body. Improved adaptabil- ity is important for everyone. It is im- portant for people with arthritis and football injuries. It is important for people who feel good. Itisimportant for newbom babies and small children. The greater your ability to adapt, the greater your ability to stay healthy. The greater your ability to adapt, the greater your potential to get well when you are sick. Chiropractic does not treat sickness, diseases or conditions. Chiropractic re- stores vital nerve supply. Any person, no matter what his or her condition, is better off with a good nerve supply.

He and his wife, Linda, have lived in the township since 1940; their three daughters also live at home. A 1957 graduate of Bloomsburg University, Kozick's training in municipal taxes actually began when he was a boy. While working as a milk delivery boy for Wilson Ryman, who was then the tax collector, Kozick accepted and recorded residents’ tax payments while delivering milk. Later he learned more of the position from former tax collettor Danny Richards. Kozick served two years in the military, taught junior high social studies at Dallas for five years and was part owner of the Broth- ers IV restaurant in Dallas for 11 years. He has been zoning officer since 1972 and sewage enforcement officer since 1974. = e Clarence J. Michael, 57, also seeking the Republican nomina- tion, has lived in Dallas Township for the past 22 years. A former Fulbright scholar, Michael stud- ied in England, where he met his wife, Morag. They have three chil- dren. Michael has worked for the past 20 years as a guidance counselor in the Wyoming Valley West school district; previously he taught social studies, reading ana 'ng- lish in New Jersey for eight years. He has served on the Dallas school board for six years and the West Side Tech board for five years. “People at the Luzerne County courthouse have told me that they can collect local taxes more cheaply and efficiently than the local tax collectors,” he said. “I support this concept, although it could put me out of a job if I were elected.” JACKSON TOWNSHIP e Jacqueline Latosek, 41, the Democratic incumbent, is seek- ing her third term. She and her six children have lived in Jackson Township for the past 12 years. Ms. Latosek works part-time as a full-charge bookkeeper for Design Systems in Wilkes-Barre and is a College Misericordia graduate, majoring in business administration with a concentra- tion in accounting. She is a member and on the executive committee of the Penn- sylvania State Association of Tax Collectors and secretary of the Luzerne County Tax Collectors’ Association. Although Ms. Latosek currently doesn't use a computer in her tax office at home, she has consid- ered investing in one. e Joann M. Wright, 42, seek- ing the Republican nomination, has lived with her husband, Donald and one child in Jackson Township for 11 years. She has studied business at Luzerne County Community Col- lege and uses her accounting and math skills in her part time job as an office clerk. Ms. Wright has been active in Jackson Township affairs for several years and is a member and past treasurer of the Jackson Township Fire Company Ladies’ Auxiliary. Jf permitted by the township, Wright says she would like to have her office in the new munici- pal building, as well as at home, where she would keep regularly scheduled hours. FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP e Joy L. Daubert, 49, the Republican incumbent, is seek- ing her third term as township tax collector. She has lived with her husband, Jim, in Franklin Town- ship for 30 years; they have three grown children living away from home. Ms. Daubert has taken several college-level accounting courses and worked for 13 years with H&R Block as an income tax preparer and instructor for new tax prepar- ers. | She is also an enrolled agent for the Internal Revenue Service. Enrolled agents, who have the equivalent training of a CPA in income taxes, appear in court to represent people whom the IRS is auditing. Before becoming tax collector, Ms. Daubert was Franklin Town- ship secretary-treasurer. “I supply my own computer, programs, telephone, office sup- plies and all other equipment,” she said. “This year Franklin Township sent me a ‘stamp allot- ment’ — a book of 16 first-class postage stamps,” she said. ¢ Susan D. Vodzak, 39, also seeking the Republican nomina- tion, has lived with her husband, Joseph and five children in Fran- klin Township for the past 16 years. A 1974 graduate of Bloomsburg University with a major in secon- dary math, she taught high school for a year in New Jersey before moving to the area. She taught locally for a year in a private Christian academy and was head of sales at Pomeroy's for two years. Ms. Vodzak believes that her home, located in the center of the township, would be a good loca- tion for a tax office. She said the job is also appealing because she can work at home and still be available for her children. HARVEYS LAKE * Terry G. Jones, 44, on the Democratic ballot, has lived in the borough for 38 years and is seeking his third term as tax col- lector. He and his wife, JoAnn, have two children. : The owner of Jones' Pancakes at the lake, Jones attended King's College in Wilkes-Barre, majoring in education. He served on the Harveys Lake Municipal Author- ity as an appointed member from 1981 to 1991. z In addition to collecting taxes, Jones also collects street light fees and 1,200 garbage bills for the borough, for which he is paid five percent of the amount which he collects. e William F. Purcell, 67, seek- ing the Republican nomination, has lived at Harveys Lake since 1958, and is also running in the primary for borough council. He and his wife, Margaret, have four children, all living away from home. Ea A 1950 graduate of Wilkes University, Purcell worked for 25 years in the petroleum business and is now a full-time Lehman Township patrolman. He was previously a Harveys Lake patrol-. man and Harveys Lake constable. “Local tax collectors are be-, coming obsolete,” he said. “The job doesn’t involve a lot of work. I expect Luzerne County to eventu- ally abolish the position.” Republican incumbents Peggy D. Moyer, Louise Evans, Ruth Orloski and Thomas E. Reese are running unopposed in Lehman, Ross and Lake townships and Dallas Borough, respectively. Kingston Township, a home rule community, uses a tax col- lector employed and paid a set salary by the township, rather than electing one. cot allivisvo dl addi YEN dunia vebiiise no % Experienced %* Knowledgeable % Fair-minded % Even-Tempered * Committed to Full-Time Service Graduate — Graduate — Dallas Senior High School Bachelors Degree in Sociology — East Stroudsburg University.
