IMPORTANT MATTER OF LIGHT
Excellent Reasons Why 1t Should Al
ways Fall From the Left Side of
Writer or Worker.

The wcll-known fact that, when
using the eyes for any near work, the
illumination should come from the left
side rather than the right, is often dis
regarded.
Let anyone who considers the matter
OF little Importance once demonstrate
to himself the difference and he will
never forget II. Take q pencil and pa
per and try to write while in such a
position that the light will fall from
the right side.
The shadow of the hand or pencil
or both is thrown on the paper in such
q way as partly to cover the characters
one is making. This necessitates q
closer viewpoint and u conscious strain
On the v Now let the position of the
writer be reversed so that the light
falls from the left side.
He will notice that the shadows fall
away from the work he is doing, and
leave the field unobscured. In making
the change lie cannot help but notice
the feeling of ease that Immediately Is
experienced by the eyes.
This applies to any other kind OF
near work in which the fingers act UNI
der the guidance of the eyes. This fact
should be remembered in planning
s~chOolrOOms, wOrkrooms, Offices and
any places where steady, close work is
to he performed.

While Hoover is moving in his plans
for government control of the 1917
wheat crop he emphatically denied
yesterday afternoon that he is in any
way interfering with or seeking to
interfere with the price fixing COM
mission. This denial came in ansW er
to the rumOrs that he Was seeking
to influence the commission to set an
arbitrary lrice Of $50 a bushel to
be paid fer the 1917 CrOl.
Food Administrator Hoover yester-
day took up the matter of the control
of fOOdstuffs with the editors Of Chi
cag0 agricultural parers. He explained
to them the necessity of such action
and asked them for their cooperation,
both as individuals and through tie
columns Of their publications.
At the request Of Hoover the wheat
pit of the Chicago board of trade
closed Yesterday. Through this
course the trading in futures in wheat
will cease there and as it is the wheat
center of the world and makes the
prices, will be checked on all other
exchanges of the country.
