Maine Optometrists.

The Maine association OF opticians held
its midsummer meeting at Eastport,
July IL. The gathering was one OF the
most profitable in the history OF the or
ganization There were members present
from all sections of the State, together
With other leading optometrists from
without Its borders.
This association was instrumental in
placing upon the statute books OF the
State the law governing the practice Of
of optometry, which has already driven
from Maine a large number OF incom-
petent and irresponsible itinerants. The
law has also raised the standard of COM
potency among the prscticing optomet-
rists.
The program included practical talk
and interesting demonstration OF lens
grinding at the optical rooms OF John X.
Roche, who is the treasurer OF the State
board of examiners in optometry. A lee
ture and clinic was conducted by Harry j..
Covelle, OF Bangor. This was followed
by paper by G. H. Philbrick, OF Boston.

in adding two years. course in optome-
try to its curriculum. A pleasant relaxa-
tion from the more serious work Of the
convention was a drive around historic
Eastport, the most easterly city in the
United States, and a shore dinner.
In the evening George Mel. Presson, Of
Pennington, president OF the State board
of examiners in optometry and of the
Maine association, delivered an instruc-
tive illustrated lecture. He was followed
by F. G. Blanchard, of Southbridge, Mass.
The members OF the association from
this section are f. X. Robinson, jr., OF
