THOUGHTS TO THINK
ABOUT

Burdens are hig bluffs when
you sing songs and trials are
overcome by your smiles; all
are joys when you make toys
out of these bad boys, bur
dens and sorrows.
You can't cover up the wrong
by training your conscience to
voice it as right. You cannot
endorse virtue il you do not
practice it.
A vacant house is leaky In
vestment; you will continue to
lose the interest on the money
you have invested until you gain
a tenant. When you advertise
in the Palladium you reach 50
per cent of the homes in Rich
mond. ~

BELGIUM COMMITTEE
ISSUES A STATEMENT
Work Should Be Prosecuted
More Vigorously Than Ever
Says Local Branch.

The executive committee Of the To-
cal Belgian childrcn's relief fund de-
sircs to impress upon the Tulsa public
It's determination to prosecute the
work even more vigorously than here
tofore. The committee is convinced
that all loyal Americans will readily
recognize the patriotic aspects OF the
attempt to discharge in some small
measure Americas heavy obligation to
heroic Belgium. No valid excuse can
he offered for American apathy. We
cannot dodge the issue. Belgium sac
rlficed her all for civilization, for de-
mocracy-for us, Bclgium's children
are starving. Shall we repudiate our
debt?
The commission for relief in Bel
gium is positively the only agency au-
thorized TO care for the civilian pOpu-
lation OF Belgium. Any reports to the
contrary are without foundation in
fact. In "A recent letter to the treas
urer of the Tulsa fund George Barr
Baker. special appeals man Of the
commission writes. THE fact that
the president Of the United States saw
fit to appoint n special committee to
act IN an auNlSOry CdpaClty 10 tne com
mission. as shown In our letterhead. Is
one indication of the confidence re-
posed in us by the government. 1t is
further demonstrated by Mr.. Hoovers
acceptance of the Craftsmanship Of the
national food committee. which post
he will fill in conjunction with his
present duties as chairman Of the com
mission for relief in Belgium. Added
to this the recent contribution Of the
Rockefeller Foundation. in the sum OF
St0O,0 900, is conclusive evidence of our
ability to discharge our guarantees
and should dlspel all doubt as to our
ability in this field"
The local committee urges a wider
and more generous support of its eff
forts to maintain Tulsa's commune of
555 children; 81 month will save a
child. Can you afford to disregard
such an obligation? We offer you an
opportunity for systematic. effective
giving to a definite district. Deposit
your donation In the Belgian children's
fund at any bank or send to the treas
urer, 6l6 West Seventh street, Tulsa

Every person in school should have
his vision and hearing tested at least
once each year. This is being done in
all progressive cities. Unfortunately
there is as yet no medical inspection
in most of the rural and town schools.
If people realized the necessity for
it they would find n way to have a
physician in each locality examine the
sight and hearing OF all pupils. But
when community does not provide
for such examination, then parents
and teachers ought to make the ex-
aminations themselves. They can do
this with sufficient accuracy to detect
marked deficiencies in either vision
or hearing.
The principal defects in sight to be
looked for are shortsightedness or
myopia, long -sightedness or nyperopia.
and astigmatlsm.
People often act as though they
thought If you let child with eye de-
fects alone he will outgrow them in
time. but this is rarely the case The
opposite is more likely to be true. The
use of a defective eye is apt to increase
the defect throug unnatural strain;
and defect in vision always causes eye
strain.
As to hearing: every parent and
teacher can easily make n few tests to
determine whether child is defective
in this respect. When a child who APP
pears to be attentive "'fails to hear
words spoken by the parent or teacher
which other children at the same dis
tance hear distinctly, it suggests that
he has dull hearing. 1t is not always
certain, though, because child does
not hear what is said to him that he
has defect in hearing; some children
,.Htsb hAt
thoughts that they are unaware of
what is going on around them 1t IS
important that the parent or teacher
try to discriminate between the child
who does not hear what is said to him
because of dun hearing, and the ono
who does not understand because of
prcoccupation. - Professor M "
O'Shea in the April Mothers Maga-
zine.
