SCHOOL BOOKS AND EYE STRAIN


What kind of school books should be
in the hands of scholars is that very
sensible question which has been TAX
en- up by the British Association, the
report of which is just published. The
time has passed when any book at all
Is a treasure and it is passing when
books for use in school may be turned
out from the commercial point of
view, without any sanitary considera-
tons. The report is a consensus of
opinion of practically all the educa-
tional wisdom in the United Kingdom,
and the findings are worthy of atten-
ton wherever there are public
schools There is in the report the
fact that the practical needs of the
young people have been worked out,
and again, that no publisher need
make serious errors in his books mere
ly because he is not aware of what Is
really needed
The first important part is the
drawing of attention to the danger OF
overworking the immature eve of the
young child. 1t is a serious danger,
which hae not been properly appreci-
ated in the past. With reference to
Typography the needs of good book
are: A size of type comfortable to
the age of the child; a width of char
acter comfortable to the height; a
proper strength of outline to the
type; judicious leading" a line that
is not too long; black ink and white
paper, without gloss. One or another
of these simple standards is pretty
constantly violated in many current
textbooks.
! The study has a wider application
than might at first be. suspected, but
there are other books in very common
use that have been made up practical
ly without any thought of the eye The
committee calls attention TO the fact
that there is not at the present time
any one edition of the Bible that is fit
ted for children. The book contains
far too much matter to be squeezed in
to a volume that the child can hold in
its hand. The suggestion is made that
it be based in separate books, as 1t is
the custom to do with plays of Shake
speare, and that it even would be JUDI
cious to issue a Bible especially r..
the use OF children, with those parts
