Keen Eyesight of the kingfishers and

keener eyesight than does man. 1t is
fact that the eyesight of man is go
ing to get worse in the future and is
getting worse all the time-that is, we
are growing more nearsighted. The oc-
equations of a majority of men in
cities compel them to do their work at
very close range. This removes the
necessity of the farsighted eyes with
which most men are endowed. 1t is
probablyEa good thing that we are be-
coming arsighted
As al. example of the visual capacity
of some birds one has to think for a
moment of a hawk poised several hun
dred yards above a meadow in which.
field mouse or small chicken is
hidden. In a few seconds after the
quarry is sighted it is seized by the
bird, whose sharp sight has not only
deIecIed 1t, but whose wonderful ac
commodative apparatus permits Of a
