A candidate comments on
Lumbee Tribal Election
A> wcpondei this thanksgiving
about who the I'rcNiclcnt will be and
what went wrong in I'londa. let's
Nhme some light on the l .umbee 1 nbal
Gov eranient 1 lection and the cruel
joke played on the l.umbee peopleAs
a candidate for chairperson m>
campaign was clean with focus on
avenues toward l.umbee unity and
brighter futures for all I wish to
thank even one who supported that
initiativ e Howev er. I assure you all
is not lost and as a concerned Native,
there are things about this election
that in my opinion that eonstitute
crtminal acts First a candidate's family
prepared the ballots and both he
and his sister won seats on the board
One candidate set up all the ballots
he also won lo top it all off the
chairman ol the Democratic Part)
was also a candidate lor the I umbee
Chairman position Monies from the
IX'inocratie Parte were paid out to
ensure that \anous candidates were
successful and isn't it ironic that the
chairman of the I.umbee Tubal Cio\emment
is also Chairman of the
Democratic Part\ I herefore it seems
that we sold out the I.umbee peopleto
the highest bidder
Sincerely.

Eczema
Eczema is a common skin problem
m children. It is also called
atopic dermatitis Although, it'scause
is unknown, it is thought to be related
to other " allergic" disorders such as
allergic rhinitisf' hay fever") and
asthma lic/ema is commonly seen
in children who also have .allergic
rhinitis and/or asthma. Many children
with eczema will have other
family members with eczema, allergic
rhinitis or asthma Most children
who will develop eczema will show
signs before the age of 5.
Eczema rashes often are itchy and
the affected skin feels dry These
areas are also often scaly and red.
Eczematous areas can feel "bumpy".
For younger children (ages of 2 mos
to 5 years), eczema usually appears
on the face. neck.elbows and the
chest. In older children (4-12 years),
eczema is typically seen on the hands,
the inside surfaces of the arm and the
backside of the knees. Eczema can
flare up to specific triggers or for
unknown reasons. Specific triggers
can be certain food allergies or
changes in weather (either hot or
cold). These symptoms can come
and go and the sev erity of the svmpi
toms can vary
Eczema can be distressing to children
and parents due to the severity
of itching Therefore, measures to
alleviate irritation to the skin may
help to reduce itching Such things
to avoid are: wool or acrylic clothing
that may irritate the skin, soaps and
detergents that can be drying, and
avoiding uncomfortable climate conditions
may help to prevent flare ups.
Clothing should be loose fitting and
preferred Creams, such as Eucerin.
and petroleum jelly (Vaseline), can
be applied to the skin, especially after
bathing and whenever as needed help
to retain moisture.
Eczema is treated by avoiding
things that may cause a flare up and
taking care to avoid things that dry
out the skin (hot baths or showers)
Steroid creams, both over-the-counter
and prescription varieties, can bring
down the itching and swelling. Antihistamines.
like Benadryl, can also
effective in decreasing itching.
While there is no cure for eczema,
it can be Well controlled with appropriate
measures and visits to your
pediatrician, if eczema is particularly
severe or if the rash looks
unusual.
