Color Blindness.

There are three distinct kinds of
color blindness or three colors which
those with affected eyesight cannot
see. These are red. green and violet.
Red or green blindness is considered a
serious defect. Children should have
proper training in color study. All
of the colors should be kept before the
eyes of the pupils In the kindergarten
and up until the nerves of the eyes are
trained to distinguish TO the slightest
shade any shade Of difference in color.
The work In color in the kindergarten
is a good one and one that has more
merit than one would think at first
thought. Wooden balls colored are
good for baby playthings. Des Moines
