Folsom, who has been a driver for the
McQuaid grocery for eight years and
whose daily visits to so many Des

tinuous headaches for four years, all Of
which time his eyes bothered him and his
vision was so imperfect as to interfere
with his work. Thinking his hea6aches
We're caused by i'll health, he resorted to
medical treatment, without success. He
was finally advised to consult DR.. Lew
ATntz. Dr. Arntz made a careful ex-
animation of his eyes and had glasses
specially ground to correct his errors of
refraction. These have made a marvel-
Gus improvement in Mr.. Folsom's condi-

headaches have left him. He would not

10 overcome LnlS Cne UnlCeQ Hebrew
Charities of the city Of New York has
instituted an active campaign in the di-
rection Of finding deserting husbands.
The reason for mentioning this specific
ally in this article is to bring this organ
ization to the notice Of other communi-
ties in the hope that their cooperation
can be obtained, and that similar move
ments can be organized in all sections OF
the United States.
Under the plan which has been ar
ranged by the New York society a special
desertion committee has been brought
into being, special desertion agent has
been engaged and it is now intended to
organize similar committees wherever
feasible in the United States who shall
be correspondents of the society, through
whom information may be gathered and
who will cooperate and assist in bring
ing deserters to justice in the cities and
towns where they have taken up resi-
dence.
What is possibly Of the greatest i'm
portance in this movement is the will
ing cooperation that has been given by
the Jewish press, particularly the "Yid-
dish' press Through this medium the
committee is making an active propa-
ganda, keeping before the public con-
stantly the fact Of it's existence and ad
vertising, wherever the wife will permit
it, a notice Of the husband s desertion,
giving his physical description where it
can be obtained, and even going so far
as to print his photograph, so that he
may be recognized Considering that
the Yiddish dailies have wide circula-
ton, not only in New York city but
throughout the United States, it is hoped
that in this way we may not only find
deserting husbands through the medium
of committees in other cities, but that
many of these men, seeing themselves
thus publicly advertised, will realize
that a determined effort is being made
to find them, and will return Of their
own accord. Naturally, it is not the de-
sire Of the committee to prosecute any
man who is willing to assume the respon-
sibilities which he has temporarily
shirked.
The movement thus instituted should
not be local one. Similar organizations
should come into existence in all COM
munities and cities which at all confront
this desertion problem. Similarly, pub
icity should be given to it not only in
the eastern press, but wherever Jewish
newspaper is published. 1t is Of par
ticrlar Importance that such publicity
shall be continuous, so that the fact
can readily be brought to the notice OF
the deserters that determined, system
