PRESIDENT OF BODY

That it is an excess OF the ultra
violet rays OF light rather than the
heat of the tropics that has an injur-
ious effect on persons accustomed to
a cold climate was a theory advanced
by l.. W Bugbee. representative OF
the American Optical Company, or
Southbridge, Mass who spoke at the
ninth annual meeting Of the Opto-
metric Society Of Delaware. held in
the Hotel DUPONT last evening. The
subject of Mr.. Bugbee's address was
Tinted Glasses
The reason the Negro thrives so
well In the South. Mr. Bugbee said. Is
due IN part TO a augmented skin, which
furnishes "a protection from the exc

that 40 we lived under natural condi-
lions that there would be no eye
trouble. Nature would supply us with
bushy eyebrows 70 protect us from the
light above, and tho light that would
then reach our eyes would be softened
BY the green Of the grass and fields
Eve troubles and the necessity for
glasses are due to the artificial con-
ditlons and to the reflection OF light
from tho pavements, etc, tho speaker
said.

EVERY DAY COUNTS
Contestants Are Improving
Every Minute and Their
Friends Are Ratlying for the
Final Effort to Win the Herald
Prize,

The little drops of water and the
little grains of sand make the
mighty ocean and the pleasant land,
and the little efforts constantly kept
going make the winner in every en-
deavor, and this has no more forcible
illustration than in the Herald vot-
ing contest. The contestants at the
head of the list are the ones who
to use a common expression-have
kept saving wood" They have
improved every opportunity and
now are on the final round of this
popular contest.
AS has been previously said, the
readers of the Herald will select the
winner, and from the good work
they have already dome 1T is evident
they will determine who will take
away the grand prize, the $3.50 piano.
This week we are giving them an
offer that will surely determine who
the winner will be. This is to all
new subscribers who have taken the
Herald for two, three, four or six
months since the contest started,
and is as follows: Every one OF these
who will pay the balance of S1.50, a
years subscription, will be furnished
the Herald to Jan. 1, 1918 For in
stance: If A subscribed for the
Herald last March for months, pay
ing 40 cents, by paying the balance
of 81 so or 81. 10, A will receive the
Herald until Jan. |, 1919. If G SUBJ
scribed for 2 months last July, by
paying the balance of $1.5o, or 81 LIS,
C will receive the Herald until Jan. l..
1919. For every such subscription
there will be given $4,000 votes. and
every five such subscriptions handed
in at one time will receive a bonus
vote of 109, 900. This is an opportun-
ETY. that yen cannot afford to let
pass. ..
We hope to close the contest
shortly and on the amount GG work
done in the next few days will be de-
termined the date of its close.
