and then smart they are telling
you, in the only language they are
able to employ, that there is some
thing wrong-that they need at
tention; and the wise individual
needs the first gentle appeal, the
itching, and does not wait for the
more forcible expression when the
lids begin to smart and become
crusty and glued together through
the night and the lashes fall out
and the eye-ball becomes infamed.
For, by this time, it may be that
some condition has become estab-
lished which will be hard to re
move-if posi- bic
Just as tall oaks from little
acorns grow" so deep-seated in
fammation is often the result of
neglecting what may seem only a
trife. There are so many condi-
tions leading up to "sore eyes"
that the patience of a casual read
er would become exhausted long
before an enumeration of them
could be fairly begun, and the
more one studies the causes which
give rise to ocular inflammation
the more one is surprised at the
multitude of causes.
One of the chief causes of "sore
eyes" is the need of glasses to
overcome a deficiency in either the
retroactive or the accommodative
ability of the eye. The refraction
of the eye is governed by the same
physically law which governs the
refraction of rays of light in any
other connection, and distinct i'm
ages of objects at which we look
should be created within the eye
without any muscular effort on the
part of the eye,
If this cannot be done, glasses
should be placed before the eyes
to redirect the rays of light so
that the eyes may remain passive.
or in a state of quiet reposeT as far
as the muscular structure is con-
cened.
By accommodative is meant the
ability of the eye to adjust itself
for different distances. This re-
quires, in the normal eye, only the
involuntary muscular movement;
but, when there is present an in
suffciency of the involuntary mus
cles and a voluntary effort is nee
essary, inflammation is brought
on. Muscular insuffciency may
also be corrected by the use of
proper glasses.
Many people dislike wearing
glasses, and self-respecting ocu-
list will hardly require patient
to wear glasses if they are not
needed, but to delay the use of
glasses when, by using them,
other and more serious conditions
might be overcome, is certainly
choosing the greatzzr of two evils.

the temporary camp to the advance
base.
Late in June a handsome private
mansion at 81 Avenue Montaigne,
just off the central point of the Ave
nue. des Champs Elysees, was leased
for the duration of the war and a
period of three months after its con-
clusion. 1t was Immediately convert
ed into an administrative headquar
tiers of the association and a club
house for Americans engaged in war
work of all kinds, including Amer
leans with the British and Canadian
forces, of whom there are approx
mately 10000. Reading and waiting
rooms were opened, pool and billiard
tables installed and shower baths pro-
vided. French classes have been
started for officers and men and
large number have enrolled. Tennis
courts have been made available to
men in the service and early in July
a baseball league was formed among
the ambulance, aviation and other
units in the city.
Arrangements are being made to
provide sleeping quarters for 300 men
for the benefit of those who may
come to the city on leave or are
quartered here, preparatory to join
ing their units. A canteen will be
opened at the Paris headquarters to
provide the "Sammies" with candies
and American cigarettes and tobacco,
which are difficult to obtain in
France. Mr.. and Mrs. Vincent Astor
recently purchased one of the largest
restaurants at a French seaport and
turned its management over to the
Y NJ. c. A. with instructions to sup
ply American soldiers and sailors
with American food at reasonable
prices.
The Paris headquarters were oc-
cupied until recently by Napoleon
Magne, whose grandfather Pierre
Magne, Frances celebrated minister
of finance, received the manstou as
gift from Emperor Napoleon III.
The house is furnished in the style
! of the Second Empire, the decora-
tions and chimney pieces being
authentic In the ante-chamber is a
| fine marble bust of Napoleon III, the
gift of the Emperor to Pierre Magne.
The officers of the Paris associa-
ton are: President, James R. Bar

urer, J. Ridgely Carter. Lewis A.

ial representative of the War Work
Council of the American Y. NJ. c. A.
to supervise the financial work of the

in-law of President Wilson, also ar
rived recently and is attached to the

Recreation Supplied Sammies
In France By the Y. M. G. A.

Paris, July 18.-(Correspondence
of The Associated Press. THE gil
gantic task of supplying American
soldiers in the training camps and at
the front with recreation has been
undertaken by the Array and Navy
Young Mems Christian Association.
Organized early in May, its French
branch already has leased and opened
a large clubhouse and Headquarters
in this city and have established CEN
ters at the permanent American base
twenty-five miles behind the lines of
the Western front and at several
ports where American sailors. SOL
diers, ambulance drivers, aviators and
others engaged in war work disem-
bark.
Under a comprehensive plan out
lined by directors of the local branch,
working in conjunction with military
authorities and American Young
Mems Christian Association officials,
representatives of the association will
follow the troops wherever they go,
into the training camps in America
on the largest troop ships crossing
the ocean, at ports of debarkation,
into the French training camps and
advance bases and even into the dug
outs near the front trenches.
Five Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation secretaries, trained in special
branches of the associations work
will accompany each brigade of APP
proXimately 5000 men into the train
ing camp in America and continue
with the unit until it reaches the
front. Each Y. NJ. c. A. unit will be
equipped with barracks or a hut
which will serve as a recreation cen
ter and an attempt will be made t.
provide the soldier with all the COM
forts, conveniences and privilege that
his family would like to provide fol
him. These barracks and huts will be
equipped with reading, writing anC
game rooms, shower baths and other
facilities for indoor and outdoor rec.
reation.
Later, if the demand warrants, tn:
association plans to open attractive
clubs for officers in the naval anC
military service. These will be TO-
Gated at ports of debarkation, advanc:
bases and in the urban centers where
officers are likely to congregate. They
will be operated Independently o.

Practical Talks on Diseases

TENT
The first article, on the Care of
the Eyes, is published today.
Why is it that the care of the
eyes receives so little Considera-
ton on the part of so many
people?
When we take just moment to
realize that our eyes are our best
friends and that without them we
are solely handicapped, does it not
seem that more thoughtful care
should be bestowed on them?
What is the value of a beautiful
complexion or beautiful hair, ar
tistically coiffeured, if the pleasing
effect is to be spoiled by red lids
and bloodshot eyes?
Men spend an hour or so, in the
barber chair, over a shampoo,
hair SINCE, a scalp treatment and
a facial massage and the moment
they step into the street they
screw up their eyelids to protect
their eyes from the strong light
because of some inf1ammatory con-
dition in their eyes. Ladies spend
hours with the manicure, or at
home, having their nails trimmed
and buffed and polished, all of
which is proper, and pretty hands
and nails are attractive-but they
don't harmonic with crusty eye
lids or lids which are half closed
to keep out the light or bleary,
blood-shot eyes.
Do not forget that rich complex
ions, artistically arranged hair,
clean teeth and pretty hands are
all commendable; but blue or
brown glasses, by their failure to
harmonic, spoil the effect, and the
same amount of time spent on the
care of the eyes, which was neces-
sary to produce the other attrac-
tiveness, might produce an har-
monious whole which would be
above criticism. BY care of the
eyes" is not meant penciling the
brows and lashes or the use of
drugs to dilate or contract t, g
pupils, for any of these proceed
ures will hardly add beauty to
ones eyes 2nd all of them are
more or less associated with dan
ger, especially the indiscriminate
application of drugs. When you:
lids begin to itch and later 20 burn
