WHAT CAUSES STRAIN ON
SCHOOL CHILDREN'S SIGHT
Sir James Kerr Addresses Hy.
giene Congress on Eye.

BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 30-Dr. Ira
S. Vile, a member of the New YORK
City Board of Education, today read
his second paper before the Fourth
International Congress on School Hy
giene. His subject was medical In
spection of schools as community
investment.
"Originally medical inspection was
instituted to detect contagious dis
eases in order to eliminate their
spread to school children. Later the
belief arose that retardation and de-
ficiencies in studies were due to ply
steal defects, particularly those OF the
sense organs. This caused an expan-
sion of medical inspection to medical
examination.
To-day medical inspection virtually
includes the discovery of contagious
diseases and the determination OF
physical defects which interfere with
ability to perform school work or the
detection of physical abnormalities
which, If neglected, will affect the
future efficiency of the children" a
Sir James Kerr, of London, Eng
land, who had as his subject the
illumination of class-rooms, said:
although in steady daylight the
eyes takes little account of differ
ences of five to five hundred feet can
dies the only final test of illuminat-
ing is the continuous satisfactory
performances of visual work.
Like other organs, the eye pos
sesses n considerable working reserve
and under natural circumstances per-
forms well within it's capacities.
Strain is only noticed under artificial
conditions of continuous work in de-
fective light. Strain is due to fatigue
from overwork, to glare, or to both
causes combined"

WOMEN CAB DRIVERS
PASSING AWAY in PARIS

PARIS, Aug. 30.-Women cab driv-
ers are fast disappearing from the
streets of Paris. Six years ago they
numbered fully 100; now there are
only six or seven, and of them all but
one will soon give up the calling.
The one who means to remain has
given various reasons for the dis
favor with which her sex regards
cab driving. At first men rushed for
vehicles driven by women and tipped
generously, but that was when re-
views and songs were advertising
the new departure. One cabwoman
says she makes not more than five
or six francs a day, and out of that
she has to pay a woman to look af-

Crimson Cross To-Niqht.

Tonight at the Paris Grand will be
exhibited one of the greatest, if not
the greatest, religious picture ever
produced. This picture entitled, "The
Crimson Cross" of the Mystery of the
Rosary" has been pronounced by the
public and the clergy as the feature
extraordinary of the silent drama.
While some claim that the religious
subject does not influence the public,
it has been proven that this class of
pictures, rightly presented, are far
more interesting to the public than
most other subjects. The story = is
deeply religious, depicting the birth
of Christ, including the journey to
Calvary, and is one that can move
only mans better instincts. AS it is
an "Eclair' drama, in three rels, it
must pass the National Board of Cen
sorship, which is composed of minis
tiers, high-minded women and other
professional people of great moral cour-
age. This great picture will be shown
for one night only and is itself worth
going miles to see.
In addition to this feature picture,

high-class musical act entitled "The

goes without saying that they have
made the one hit of the local season.

ure was produced under the personal
