Already, however, is the value OF tnat
law proved. Already has it "opened the
ewes" of the public at large to condi-
ton of things rather alarming in its
significance. A large number OF the
school children in the state are beng
shown to have defective eyesight, and 1t
is demonstrated that improper lighting
of school rooms and Objectionable
methods of arrangement and study are
responsible therefor to no small extent.
These defects being revealed by faithful
application of the law in question: 1t re-
mains for school authorities to bring
about improved conditions and methods,
in order that the eyesight of the school
children may not be injured by reason OF
poor planning or thoughtless neglect.

Massachusetts republicans have nomi-
mated Curtis Guild, Jr., for governor, and
E. S. Draper for Acknowledgements, and
declared solidly for tariff reform despite
the protests of the nominee for second
place and the leader of the reciprocity
faction. The latter, Eugene N. Foss,
formerly resident of st. Adams in this
state. made a strenuous effort prior to
the convention to have the reciprocity
idea substantially recognized in the plat
form, but met with no success. Curtis
Guild IT.. was nominated by reclamation.
He is pleasantly known by many people
in this section, who will endorse the Bay
States action in choosing him to head
the ticket. Congressman Weeks, chair
man of the convention, characterized
Mr.. Guild as IAN able, tried and honest
man, party man who has won his pro-
motion by over 20 years of effective
party service" The chairman's speech
also had word of praise for the present
democratic Gov. Douglas, who hao
"signed every revenue and appropriation
bill sent him by a republican legislature,
and who "was too honest to stat
conditions differently from what he foun'
them"
