SHELDON AIDS OPTOMETRY
Governors Support Of This Profession
Makes Him Friends.
APPEAL GOES OUT IN HIS BEHALF
j. G. Huteson, Secretary of state
Board, Calls on All Fellow
OptometrIsts 60 Pail for
Sheldon.

J. c. Hutescn, secretary Of the Nebraska
Board Of Optometry, has sent letters TO
every optician and optometrist In the state
holding a certificate from the board call
ing attention to the support which Governor
Sheldon gave bills and the encouragement
which he gave measures that have placed
the profession on a safe basis and relieved
them from the ~onslaughts Of "fakirs' and
Spectacle peddlers."
The requirements of the Nebraska law
are such that every village loafer cannot
fit glasses and tamper with the eyesight
of unsuspecting hundreds and the secretary
Of the board. who is intimate with the
workings OF the law, gives the governor
due credit for his work, urging the optome-
trists to give Governor Sheldon their sup
port and uphold his hands in securing
measures which were opposed nv a demo-
crat in the last session of the Legislature.
Mr.. Huteson calls Alteration to the fact
that some other governors had vetoed the
bills. but Governor Sheldon
signed the Nebraska bill in the face Of
considerable opposition.
owe Debt to the Governor.
A part of the letter follows:
w should all feel proud of the stand
ard to which Governor Sheldon has raised
optometry.
Every optometrist in the state should
stand loyalty by him and not only vote
for him at the coming election, but use
| every influence possible in having your
friends vote for him.
lou law will need some amendments at
the next session of the Legislature and in
Governor Sheldon we have a man who has
proved himself friendly to optometry.
"Remember. too. that the Legislature that
passed the optometry bill was a republican
house and a republican senate. The only
voice raised against our bill was a lon.
democrat.
mo matter what your political faith is
you should do all in your power for the re-
election of Governor Sheldon and a repub-
lican house and senate. Optometry will
need both this winter. Get busy for Shell
