PUT NEW PUPIL IN BOYS EYE
One Of Wonders Of Modern Optical
Surgery Recently Performed
Many People Wear Glasses.

Every time you return from Europe
you are more impressed by the i'm
mense number Of Americans who wear
eyeglasses. We are a nation Of spec
tacled people.
asked DR.. McCluney Radcliffe, who
in the last few years has examined or
operated upon 1900 eyes at the Wills
hospital, what single afiiction is re-
sponsible for most eyeglasses.
"Farsightedness," was his reply.
He told me also that the relative
number Of persons who wear eye
glasses IL increasing. AS q matter Of
curiosity / subsequently counted the
specialized men who we're sitting In
one large clubroom having lunch.
There were 20 Of them, while but Is
wore none.
All kinds OF surgical science is i'm
proving, but none more rapidly than
that pertaining to the human eye. Not
long ago Doctor Radcliffe put q new
pupil In the eye Of q boy who had been
suffering from an old injury.
The longer time which children must
now spend in school is believed to be
one important reason for the very
great number Of young persons who
wear eyeglasses. But oculists insist
that while more people wear glasses,
the average sight Of all Americans Is
now better than ever.
A similar thing is true Of the human
tooth. While q far greater sum is now
paid to dentists than formerly, the
average tooth is much better than that
Of our forefathers. Both eyes and
teeth used to be grossly neglected.

strongly.

night the governor occupied an up

get though he applied for accommo-
