LIST Of NAMES
URGING RECALL
Men Behind Movement Will
Take Advantage Of Ten
Days to Amend
Petition.

Despite the charges repeatedly
made by Elmer Thomas, special at.
torney for the city commissioners
named in the recall. of fraud in the
petition filed 10 days ago, the city
clerks report to the city commission
yesterday makes no reference to
Mr.. Thomas charges.
The petition against Mayor Smith
and Commissioners Ringer, Ure and
Towl was declared BY City Clerk
Hunter to be insufficient because it
lacked the proper number of names.
Mr.. Thomas, who was employed
at the city's expense to act for the
members of the council against
whom the recall was aimed, has
given out number of interviews to
the newspapers declaring that he
had discovered evidences of fraud
in checking the petition. City Clerk
Hunter did not attempt an explana-
ton of these declarations in his re-
port to the council.
The clerks report read simply
"manifestly insufficient"
Mayor Smith made a motion that
the petition be placed on file, and
it was filed without comment.
The city clerks report to the
council stated that the petition pur-
ported to contain $3.50 signatures.
According to the city clerks opin-
ion and that of Elmer Thomas and
some others, the petition must have
at least 6843 signatures, which
would be 80 per cent of the 22,810
votes cast at the election in which
the proposition to buy the gas plant
was voted on.
The men who are engineering the
recall declare that the number of
signatures required should be only
so per cent of the number of votes
cast at the last general election
which would be 80 per cent of $4,000.
However, the recall boosters are
out now to get the 400 additional
signatures which the friends of the
administration declare will have to
go on the petition before it can be
accepted.
1--WE have been getting additional
signers for the last 10 days." de-
clared James Mcdonald, one of
those in charge of the campaign.
while we are not willing to agree
that we need as many names as op-
poncnts claim, it has been thought
the better plan to amend the petit
ton, since there will not be the
slightest difficulty in getting as
many as 1000 or 5000 additional
names in the next 10 days"

H0W to Lose Your Tan,
FreckLes or Richness

A days motoring, an afternoon on the
tennis ground or golf links. a sunbath on
the beach or exposure on lake trip,
often brings on deep tan or vivid crimson
or. more perplexing still, a vigorous crop
Of freckles. A very necessary thing then
is mercolized wax, which removes tan, red
ness or freckles quite easily. It literally
peels off the affected skin-just a little
at time, so there's no hurt or injury
As the skin comes off in almost invisible
flaky particles, no trace of the treatment
is shown. Procure an ounce of mercolzed
wax at your druggists and use this night
ly as you would cold cream. washing it
off mornings. In a week or SO you will
have an entirely new skin, beautifully
clear. transparent and of a most delicate
whiteness.
