Gordon L. Berry Speaks On
 the PTeOentiOn of Blindness
Social Service Department By MRS. SIDNEy Ii. LILLIAN

A small but interested audience greeted Gorden l.. Berry, field secretary of the in ternational commission for the prevention of blindness at lecture in Cable hall Friday night This lecture was given by the association for the recreation and aid of the blind, for whom MT. Berry is mak- ing a survey in Alabama to endeavor to association, through study and invest1- gation, any causes, whether direct or in- direct, which may result in blindness or impaired vision.
 Nr. Berry spoke of the causes of blind ness, saying in part that the most con- mon for.ns of unnecessary blindness is the result of an eye disease which af- ficts the baby before it is a month old, and which in 991a per cent of the cases could have been prevented by proper care and treatment at the time the baby was born
 The proportion ot pupils blind from babies sore eyes in g. state schools for the blind is 22.1 per cent. The tragedy of the whole matter is that none of these children need, have become blind if the proper preventive measures had been adopted in time.
 MT. Berry spoke of the economic loss to the state as being tremendous, as the average cost of educating a blind child is 10 times the amount required to educate a normal sighted child in the public schools.
 The subject of trachoma was intro duced, this being particularly interesting

is none the less immortal, and therefore, the cause for which an immortal body had at first been given to it still exists.
 Therefore, in order not to change the end for which He first made the body immortal, God in a manner owes it to Himself to restore to it for the souls sake the primitive privilege of incorruptibility Hence, it is evident that the resurrection of the body is not something outside the laws of the natural order; but that it is, on the contrary the restoration of the order originally established by God. If there is any miracle in the resurrection, it is only in view of the cause that will work it, which can be nothing but the power of God, and not in view of the natural eXigency which we have just eX- plained. These arguments for the resur- rection of the body are confirmed by req sons drawn both from the moral order, which requires that the body, the in strument of the good or evil wrought by the soul, should share in it's rewart or punishmentt and from the order of nature, where everything is unceasingly dying to resume a new life and where man would be an exception, without eXplana- tion, should he die to live no more.
 It is absurd to object against the resur- rection Of the body, that it is impossible for the scattered elements of the body to be reunited, or that it is impossible for the soul to resume it's former body, which will have been transformed into an infinity of other substances; for in the former case, we put limits to God S power; in the latter, we forget that ident- ity of molecules is not necessary to con- stitute identity of body For science has shown that the body, properly so-called, is not constituted of the molecules that enter into it, since these molecules are renewed day by day and are changed in the space of about seven years, while the body remains ever the same.
 This seems to me to be in harmony with common sense and what the eternal fitness of things should and does demand. pr. Edmonds' Resurrection body seems too incorporeal to fill the bill. It is really more difficult to understand how such a body could enjoy heaven, or suffer in torment than it is to believe in the old doctrine of the resurrection of the body. But why should this poetic dream, the Resurrection body" participate with the soul either in bliss or punishment here, after, when it had no participation with said soul here? Evidence corrobora ting the doctors ''ipse dixit' would be inter- esting. M. F.. KITRICk.

 Tt is estimated said MT. Berry, that there are 2,000,000 industrial accidents in this country each year"
 There were killed in battle during the Civil war 67,05S men, while the loss of life through accidents in a single year in this country is estimated as high as | I5, GOO. Ten per cent of these are accidents to the eyes It is estimated that 75 per cent of the 20000.000 school children in the United States are suffering from some partially or completely remediable defect which is interfering with their advance ment.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
"The Resurrection of the Body"
the Editor off The Age- -Herald.

To the Editor of The Age Herald
 The editorial department of last Sun days AgeHerald regaled it's Christian the burden of which was the astounding assumption that-"People do not now be- lieve in the resurrection of the body. They believe in a resurrection body" (Whatever in heaven or elsewhere tha t anomaly isD That aGod could if He chose, go up and down all those myriad shadowy aisles of life and recapture all the pal ticles % But will He? Or does He? No. The evidence is the other way" Realizing that God is not an anthroI omorphic being that would, even for the sake of pretty rhetoric have to SC up or down anywhere to capture said particles, since He IS everywhere, not as man, but as God, begin to suspect there is something wrong with the Rev. Doctors evidence. Without wishing to enter into biblical discussion of the subject, l would like to present to the thoughtful public reasons motives of credibility as l find them in an old note book on lectures by my professor in philosophy anent the resurrection of the body.
 Since the soul is made to be united with the DOQN, II VIII aSdln De unlCeQ to It after having been separated from it for time. This reunion is demanded not only by the very nature of man, but like wise by the moral order, according to which the body will share in the reward punishment of the good or evil of which it shall have been the instrument Man is neither soul alone nor body alone; his being is complete only when his soul is substantially united to his body. Un- doubtedy the human soul is subsistant in itself, but God has placed it lowest in the order of intelligences, and on account of it's weakness, it requires the body for the perfection and integrity of it's spe- cific operations. Since, then, the body is an integral part of mans nature, it must be resusitated; otherwise we should be obliged to say that man. the work of divine predilection, would remain forever in state contrary to nature. But this cannot be- God has allowed sin to sub vert for time the order of His provi dence, but not to triumph forever over the laws that He has established.
 To this reason, derived from mans na- ture, may be added another, drawn from the end for which the body was original lY created immortal. When God made the soul subsistent in itself. by a special gift, He make the body share in the souls immortality. But. if by the fall the body has become mortal. the soul

Main Batteries of Ten 16-
 Inch Guns Each
WILL COST S1S,OOO,O ,OOO
To Have Greatest Practicable Speed and Cruising Radius of Ten Thou sand Miles-Would Have New
 Ships Displace 32.OOO Tons

Washington. January 14-Main batteries of 10 16-inch guns each, the greatest prac- tcable speed and cruising radius of at least 10000 miles are general characteris- tics urged by the navy general board for the two new superdrea dnaughts Congress 1 has been asked to authorize this year. 1 It was learned tonight that the board proposed that the ships should cost $1S,- 000000 each, displace 36,00O tons and have | the highest speed attainable without sac- rificing armament, armor or fuel capacity It would have them represent 20 per cent increase in gun power and endur- 1 ance over any American batteship afloat | or authorized, and carry the biggest guns ever placed aboard fighting ship by any power.
 indications at the navy department however, are that adherence to the 32 OOo- ton ship of the California class finally will be decided upon by Secretary Daniels, although the estimates already before | Congress are based on the larger craft l Opinions differ among MT. Daniels ad visers as to the advisabiity of increasing the size of battleships, because of many limitations of yard facilities and channel depths.
 Some officers believe. also, that the power of individual guns should not be 1 increased at the expense of the total num- | Der of big guns carried. The California and similar ships will carry 12 14-inch guns each.
 | Experts who favor the 14-inch weapon | for future ships have figured out that | l2-Sun ship will average D per cent more hits than an eight-gun vessel. The only advantage of the bigger gun. they say. is | at ranges in excess of b GOO yards and | navy information as to the battle in the North sea in which the German armored cruiser Bleucher was sunk shows that only l per cent of hits was scored by either fleet. That fight was fought at from l5,0O0 to 10000 yards, and the German ships did much damage to the British battle cruisers, it is said, although they
 mounted only 11-inch guns against the l3.5 weapons of the British.
 The general board reached it's conclu-
 sion on the necessity of bigger battleships sons for raising the cruising radius from S0oo miles, as in the California class to 10000, have not been disclosed but prob ably had to do with the great distances of the Pacific ocean.
 The board did not recommend any spe- clflc speed to be reached advising merely
 that the 2l-knot gait of the present first
 line ships should be increased as much
 as possible without reducing the arma- ment, armor or fuel capacity.

TALKS ON THRIFT
Saving at the Spigot and Wasting at
 the BunghOle


 There is an economy that saves at the | spigot and wastes at the bunghole To ! practice economy in little things and forget it in the larger ones is no econ- omy at all. To walk a mile in order to save cents car fare may not be good policy, for the time may be worth many l times the saving. It has been figured out that it does not pay a carpenter to stoop down to pick up a nail, for the time he wastes would buy two nails You often see men and boys in the big city dashing in front of autos, lodging trol- ley cars and taking desperate chances with their live sto save few moments time, and then stop for 10 or 15 minutes to watch some gentleman in a window advertising a corn cure. Be consistent. It never pays to buy something simply because it is cheap. If you do not need it, it is dear at any price. The woman who is eager for bargains and buys sim ply because she cannot resist the temp tation to get a bargain has swindled her self. True value consists in getting the maximum return for the money spent
 Last summer a woman bought six bas kets of peaches that were spotted, and thought she bought them cheap, and her economical soul was exultant; but when she found she had fewer cans than if she had bought sound fruit, and the scraps were useless for peach butter" and in her anxiety to get them canned before they spoiled she worked herself sick and let the syrup boil until it crystalized she realized that there are some bar gains that are not bargains
 When a wave of economy strikes the household. the wife generally decides to save on the table, which is all very well, provided she knows how But to buy cheap meats and stale vegetables may be the poorest sort of economy
 There are some cuts of beef as nour- 1Shlng as pOrterhouSe at one-third less the cost; but to buy bone and gristle for beef is to deceive yourself If the fam fly eats no fat buy lean cuts. Pork chops can be had with practically no fat or bone at all. These are the loin chops Rump roast is all meat and no bone and goes long way because there is no waste. In the matter of clothing costly economy can be practiced. Two pairs of S2 shoes will not last half as long as one pair of $4 ones Bingham costs more than calico. but it wears longer and looks better. It costs just as mucb to make dress of calico as of gingham ana the only difference is the small .sav- ing in material cost which is overbal anced by the short wear. A remnant is not cheap unless you can use it. fM
 It may pay woman to do her own laundry but if she breaks her health ii is costly washing. You can save money by doing without eating-at least cutting it down to stopping the craving for food. You can eat candy just before dinner and not want soup and meat: but that Is saving money to hire doctor True economy does consist in doing without some things-needless luXuries. but not in doing without the necessities of life There are many ways to save, but look out that Tn saving at the spigot you don't forget the bunghole.
