to Section 9, which reads:
"It shall be unlawful for
any person employed in ex-

or department thereof, to

interfering with an election
or affecting the results there

Mr.. Meloy had no hesita-
ton in saying that a Goy-

had a political streamer was
not in violation. He was firm
in the opinion that a Gov

about a parking lot and past

tomobiles would be in vio-

price policies In just the past year, Sengs contact lens
volume has rped We extremely grateful to the public
for this and dedicate department to giving

natufal period OF adjustment.
The point is-today millions Of
people do wear these fluidless
contact lenses every waking
hour of the day-and for every
activity-even including SWIM
ming.
HOW ARE YOU FITTED?
Sterling Optical utilizes all the
modern advances in your exami-
nation. Modern equipment meas
ures the curvature of your eye
without ever making physical
contact with the eye itself. Even
if you bring your own doctors
prescription, Sterling will give
you a complete examination by
contact lens specialist.
is THERE A TRIAL" FOR
CONTACT LENSES? Before
you are fitted, before you COM
nit yourself to any expense,
Sterling will actually let you
wear a contact lens and expert
ence it's comfort. This is done,
quite frankly, to help you over
come the mystery of the un-
known-to help you make an in
telligent decision on whether or
not you want new contact lenses.
HOW MUCH SHOULD YOU
SPEND? There are no ''bar-
gains" when it comes to your
vision-but Sterling Optical has
proven that high ethical stand
ards can be maintained without
prohibitive prices. A pioneer of
cost reduction in eyeglasses (and
one of the largest optical offices
in the nation), Sterling has ap-
piled the same technique to con-
tact lenses. You are examined
thoroughly. Your prescription is
sent to one of the largest contact
lens laboratories in the country
where your lenses are preci-
sion ground. You are fitted pa
tiently and kept under expert
supervision until you adjust sat-
isfactorily. An excellent invest
ment, your contact lens prescrip-
tion seldom, if ever, need be
changed-and Sterling guaran-
tees the prescription for life.
Evening star., 1960-06-12

WHAT ARE NEW CONTACT
LENSES LIKE? In the past
Z to Is years contact lenses have
undergone vast chronological
Improvements. The lens recon-
mended by Sterling Optical
today is tissue thin, optically
ground plastic that requires no
fluid and literally FLOATS" on the
eyes tear layer. This lens is only
one-third of an inch in diameter.
WHY SHOULD YOU WEAR
CONTACT LENSES? There is
an obvious cosmetic advantage.
Being completely invisible, con-
tact lenses do improve your ap-
pearance. Many sensitive par
ents choose contact lenses to
give their children more self
confidence. But there are other
important benefits: For most
people who are nearsighted, far
sighted or astigmatic, the con-
tact lens provides as much visual
acuity as eyeglasses. For certain
special eye conditions, the con-
tact lens has a unique corrective
value NOT offered by eye
glasses. What's more, contact
lenses provide you with a wider
field of vision because they elm
mate the frame of eyeglasses.
HOW SAFE ARE CONTACT
LENSES? The simple fact of
the matter is that many athletes
prefer contact lenses over eye
glasses-on the basis of safety.
The contact lens is virtually un-
breakable and nearly impossible
to dislodge. Sterling Optical will
show you why contact lenses are
excellent for active, outdoor
people and for youngsters who
engage in sports.
CAN YOU ADJUST TO CON-
TACT LENSES? This is a key
question-and one that Sterling
will help you to resolve before
you make any investment. We
have found that the majority of
people who sincerely want to
wear contact lenses can and do
adjust satisfactorily. The prob
lem is primarily psychological
that's why children usually ad-
just more rapidly than adults.
If you remember the first time
you wore eyeglasses, you will
remember that you were con-
scious of wearing them. Today,
you probably don't even realize
your glasses are on. The same
effect holds true for contact
lenses. Sterling's patient and
considerate adjustment super
vision will take you through the
Evening star., 1960-06-12

In one of the modern
examination rooms, a
contact lens specialist
will discuss your opti-
cal needs before CIV
ing you an eXamina-
ton.
The widely expanded
facilities enables Ster-
ling Optical to give
you extensive atten-
ton before you select
contact lenses - and
during the adjustment
period that you may
require.
