oCuLIsrs For SCHOOLS.
London Win Hereafter Have Experts
Look After Children's Eyes.

LUX after NnllQItn Eyes.
AT a recent meeting Of the Lon
don school board, oyer which Lord
Reay presided, report was presented
in which the general purposes COM
mittee recommended the appoint
ment Of six oculists at a cost Of eS75
per year, says the London Telegraph.
According to the medical officer, the
percentage of school children with
normal vision increased with every
year of age and standard Of advance
during school life, reaching so per
cent. with standard seventh. Ten
per cent. all through school life had
bad vision, and this remained about
s constant proportion. The percent
ages of defect appeared to vary more
with the social and nutritiye condi-
tions Of the children, and with racial
popularity than with any school con-
ditions, for school effects from fine
work and poor Illumination were
more likely to show themselves in
general nerve strain and unhealthy
~neurotic, nutritional conditions than
in very defective visual acuity during
school life.
The medical officer further stated
that the selection of children whose
efficiency in school is damaged by
dirt, parasites, chronic diseases of
ears or impaired visual acuity is just
beginning. The treatment of all
these matters is tedious, has TO be
thorough, but is a routine ofthe most
monotonous and u~ninteresting de-
scription The burden at present
falls on the hospitals, and they have
not yet adapted themselves to it.
Whether even with time they ever
can efficiently discharge this public
duty is at least doubtful. The vision
examinations show 10 per cent. of the
100000 school children in London so
bad that detailed investigation and
possibly treatment are necessary. An
equal number with slighter defects
would also benefit by this. 1t is
found at hospitals or elsewhere that a
few Of this last class on further ex-
animation come out normal as re-
CARDS acuity, and may require no
treatment. No amount of REASONABLE
care can eliminate these in school.
Regarding vision only, the conclu-
sion is that from 10000 to 10000
children annually in London ought
to have detailed medical examina-
ton, and, if required, treatment, if
the best educational results are to be
obtained, and their future efficiency
as citizens is to be promoted. After
discussion the recommendation of
the committee was adopted by rs
votes to 5.

EXCESS IN GOLF.
An English Publication Feels Called
Upon to Sound a Warning Word.

An English publication Feels Called
Upon to Sound a Warning Word.
Too much time is spent over golf,
and men bring to bear on the game an
industry and a devotion to detail
which ought to be expended upon
more serious things. This kind Of
enthusiasm for a form Of recreation,
says the London Lancet, cannot be
regarded as merely a struggle to
maintain the standard Of physical
health on which mental health de-
ponds. 1t must rather be looked
upon as immoderate attention to q
fascinating sport and must be guard
ed against like any other form of ex-
cess. 1t is an admirable thing in
golf-which we admit to be an excel
lent game even while we desire to
say q warning word against its cult
thatitcannot be played carelessly and
hatassiduouspractice required aft
er the position in the handicap list
that is somewhat contemptuously de-
scribed as domestic twelve" has
been reached, if a higher standard is
to be attained. tits exactly here that
golf proves, to our thinking, a pitfall
to many men. Whatever is worthd do
ing is worth doing well, is an axiom
that every thinking man must cordi-
ally indorse. As no one can play golf
really well without the sacrifice of
much time, the workingman is soon
brought to a parting Of three ways.
Shall he leave off playing a game in
which he can only excel by much ex-
penditure of time? Or shall he con-
INDEPENDENTLY a game which
he feels that he could, and he would,
play much better? Or shall he give
more thought than is right to what,
at best, is but laborious idlenessf
We hope that all our readers will take
the middle course. Let them reap
the undoubted good that is offered
to them by q break in their round Of
toll and by brisk exercise on open hill
and heath, and let those Of them who
are not brilliant opponents of golf
recognize cheerfully that excellence
can only come by the neglect Of more
important things.
