THE DREAD OF CATARACT

The public has horror of the word cataract" It is a synonym of ire mediable blindness. This is bad for two reasons. In the first place, the patient and his friends are inclined to regard every eye trouble as cata- ract. Every spot on the eye, every decrease in vision, causes the fear. "I'm going blind from cataract" Frequently the patients go to the ocu- list so wrought up that even his fla vorable opinion fails to relieve them. In this state, they fall an easy prey to quacks, and charlatans, who assure them that their glasses and lotions will affect a cure. Sometimes there is an actual improvement in the ocu- lar state, as a result of which the re- medy to cure cataract is heralded far and wide. On the other hand, they may serve to keep the patient from securing proper treatment until the condition which at first was compara- lively harmless, may have progressed beyond the possibility of cure. In the second place, even if the patient has a cataract, the outlook is by no means hopeless. It must be explained to him that the nature of the disease is such that there will be a progressive loss of sight until a certain stage is reach ed, after which it will be possible by a delicate but not especially danger ous operation to restore the sight. In only a very small percentage of cases does the eye become blind In the great majority of cases, high degree of useful sight is obtained, and in some a condition approaching normal vision results. In fact. cataract is one of the most favorable of eye diseases which would cause loss of one of the most favorable of eye diseases which cause loss of sight, and patient whose failing sight cannot be reme- died by glasses, should hail this diag nosis with relief instead of with hor- TOT.

nrpJJC EDUCATION IN MARY
 LAND.

rho oroanization of the Council on
 u..ltb and Public Instruction of the
 ,uor;can Medical Association, at the
 q Touis meeting in 1910, was a defi- nite recognition of the obligation on tba mart of the organized medical pro- ,ession to educate the public and to make its special and technical know lsdge available as far as possible for
 be guidance of the people. Like all other activities of the American Medi- ,sl Association this work can reach it's highest development only through the coordinating and cooperating work If the state associations. For this reason each state association was asked to establish a state committee on health and public instruction if it had not already done so, or to dele gate this work to one of its existing committees. Many states are not talk ing up this work. Probably in no state has it been developed to any higher point than in Maryland, in which the work of the Committee on Public In- struction was early inaugurated and has been carried on vigorously and
 enthusiastically. In a recent issue of the Bulletin of the Medical and Chir- mgical Faculty of Maryland appears an editorial review of the work of this committee for 1914. After stat ing that without question this work IS one of the most important and val uable factors of the state association activities, attention is called to the health week held in Baltimore, with its accompanying public health exhi- bit, and to the smaller meetings and exhibitions held throughout the state, as well as to the large number of lee lures and public talks on health topics gwen by members of the faculty in dlferent towns and cities. A notice able feature is the number of mem OefS taking part in this work, thirty

Simplicity will this year mark the entertainment to be extended to the delegates of the Arkansas Federation of Women's Clubs, which will meet next month in Fayetteville. The en- tertainment will be none the less lav- ish on the part of Fayetteville's citi- zens, than it has been a former state conventions of this nature, but an eff fort is to be made to make allowances for conditions in Arkansas today. One of the most notable of these is the re- uest that the visiting delegates ap- pear at the reception on the opening afternoon in dresses of cotton weave.

departments cannot have men act for
them except incidentally. The game
commission has been asked to detail
men to act on special cases involving

do so until II Is satisfied the money
from hunters can be legally expended
for the purpose. 1t is the first case of
