Concerning The Eyes

HEALTHY EaEs are the only beautiful
sort. Near-sighted folks are never
pretty, the strained expression
makes them seem over-inquisitive.
People with bad eyesight cannot be
beautiful. and glasses, SO common
an affection, spoil many an other
wise good-looking face. Indeed,
hope we will come to a day when
glasses will be discarded, when some
sort of treatment will become known
that will do away with these clumsy
appurtenances. .-
Sight is caused by the converging
of rays Of light from the eye upon
certain objects. If the. eyeball is
ffattened-too much rubbing will do
this so will i'll health and old age
the rays do not converge or focus
properly and the person cannot see
correctly. Glasses, of varying thick
ness and curvature, change the de-
Election of these rays to make them
focus correctly. Have you watched
the part OF a stick thrust under
water and noticed how bent seemed
the submerged part? Water, being
thicker than air, makes detection
in the rays Of light that go from the
eye to the stick, and gives the bent
appearance. ...=~
If the eyes are overworked they
must change their shape the least
bit to focus properly. This strains
them, often permanently. If there
is the least feeling of strain it is best
to stop work and close the eyes for a
moments rest, even though the task
in hand seems important. If any
thing is wrong with the eye-a sly,
opthalmia, Inflammation, or IL any
foreign particle gets into the eye, it
should not be used while the condi-
ton exists. Bind the eye with clean
linen, and use the ons that doesn't
hurt-strain at such a time may
mean glasses in the future. !
For inflammation or for drawing
out cinders or dust, a f1axseed poul-
tice or a fat oyster, are the best
treatments known. -. -

Girl SCOUTS h
BRANCH TO BE
ORGANIZED HERE

Honolulu is to have an organization
of Girl Scouts whose pledge will be
similar to that Of the Boy Scouts, and
who will have their drills. practise
marches, hikes and encampments Just
as the boys have theirs.
A movement to organize company
of girl scouts for Honolulu had its
origin seven months ago, In meeting
at the Library Of Hawaii called hy
Miss Mary S. Lawrence, the children 8
librarian. who is at present on the
mainland. Miss Lawrence's idea OF
the meeting was to organize Hon0lu-
lu branch of the Camp Fire Girls, the
local organization to make use OF the
Hawaiian myths and legends instead
of the Indian folklore which has been
worked into the Camp Fire Girls asso.
citation in the States.
After Miss Lawrence had proposed
her plan, Miss Mary J. Lowe, Of Bos-
ton, who was then doing Palama Set.
Element work, suggested that instead
of the Camp Fire Girls, the girls or
the island be organized into Girl
Scouts, and from this suggestion
sprang the plan which is now begin
ming to bear fruit. Miss Lowe has re-
ceiyed her commission as Captain OF
Girl Scouts from the national organf
zation, whose headquarters are in New
York.
Four troops have been organized.
and Troop No. 1, captained by Miss
Lowe herself, and made up of so
scouts. most of them Kamehameha
girls, has been registered at national
headquarters. The other three troops.
which have not yet been registered.
are captained by Miss Evelyn j. DEM
ing, who has 40 girls from Punahou
and Manoa; Miss Margaret Jones,
with 20 Palama Settlement girls, and
Mrs. William Knott, of the Kakaako
Mission, who has organized 40 Of the
Kakaako girls into troop. The last
three named captains will receive
their commissions later.
Four councils a year will pc held.
which will be open to all women and
girls in Honolulu who are interested
in scout work A large attendance OF
women and girls is hoped for at the
first meeting of the council, which
Miss Lowe has called for 2:3e Satur
day afternoon, at the Library Of Ha-
wall.

who is bubbling and sloshing over
with his own sentiments, bestow
them upon the first girl who happens
to be handy and solemnly pledge him
self to come back at that indefinite
date when the war shall be over and
marry her for keeps.
Even when the girl is nice girl
and would make suitable wife fo!
the young man under Norman condi.
tons, it is suicidal thing for him to
do under the circumstances.
To begin with, at the most impress
sionable time of his life almost, the
young man is starting forth on the
greatest adventure that any human be-
ing ever undertook He is going to q
far country, to strange scenes, to a
thrilling new environment, to undergo
crucial experiences.
These may make him better man
or worse, but they will make him a
different man, with different ideals,
different tastes and habits and with a
different point of view. He will be as
changed as If he had changed his
skin and whether he will want to mar
ry the kind of a girl for wife when
he comes back that he asked to marry
him when as callow youth he went
away is exceedingly doubtful
In addition, no one knows what the
war is going to bring him. Some will
inevitably come out of 1t with broken
bodies. Some with empty pockets and
no immediate way of retrieving their
fortunes. Lucky under such conditions
will he be who has no one but himself
to provide for. and who is not hamper.
ed by the knowledge that some girl,
back home is waiting for him to come
back and make good his promise to
marry her. He travels the fastest who
travels alone with a light load on his
back.
Given moonlight night, and a man
a little heartsick at breaking old ties,
and going off among strangers, and
homesick at leaving the place where
he has lived all of his life, and he will
propose to any girl who is properly
sympathetic and looks as If she were
ready to shed tear or two over his
departure.
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-11-23

1t is just this situation that has
made hundreds of thousands OF young
men pop the question to the land
lady's daughter, or to the girl next
door on the night before they started
to the city to seek their fortunes. And
il is these engagements that nave
wrecked the lives Of half the men
who entered into them.
For the man went along and grew
and educated himself and improved
in every way. and came to be differ
ent man from the village boy he was,
but the girl stayed put, just as she
was. ,.-- ~.
And always around the mans neck
was the thought Of this engagement,
crushing him, pulling him down. The
girl became an old woman of the sea,
of whom he could not rid himself. He
had outgrown her utterly. He had
come to admire an entirely different
type of woman. He was ashamed OF
her narrow provincial ways. She bored
him to death with her platitudinous
conversation. E.* :. p. :.=ss
But she had missed marrying the
butcher or the baker, either of whom
would have made her an admirable
husband and a good previder, for his
sake. She has waited for him, and i'll
her empty years had built all of her
hopes and plans on his marrying her,
and so in the end, being neither cad
nor welcher, he had to go back and
redeem the promise he had given IN
a moment of sentimentality, although
it meant lifelong misery to him.
"a young man married is young
man marred," says the old proverb.
A young man engaged is a young man
hobbled and this is why Sammy, if he
is wise, will go to the front unfettered
by any matrimonial promises. 1t is
best for him, and a million times bet.
