EyestraIn Of School Life.

Examinations of over 100000 pairs
of eyes and careful tabulation of the
results in the Boston public schools
show that nearly all children enter the
primary schools with normal eyes. In
the higher grades one-fourth OF the
pupils are myopic. and in universities
this increases until from 90 to 20 per
cent of the students are myopic. In
other words, nearsightedness In.
