Mashing-
What The Times Readers
Think.
COARSE TO ~MAsH HIM IN FACE"

never could understand why it
was that some people are silly
enough to think that men will in
sist on flirting when they have
found out that the girl in question
is mot that kind" Now I am not
a sarcastic old man or a he vam-
pire, but young Washington
woman (twenty-two), and accord
ing to my friends not altogether
unattractive, and I have observed
such things for the six years I've
been working.
You know it aways takes two to
have fuss. There are several
girls in our own office who are al
ways talking about the fellows that
insist on flirting with them. but 1
wish you could see those girls. One
glance at them would tell any man
that he was perfectly safe in flirt-
ing. Their hair. their face and
their very walk indicates same.
am q strong believer in the
fact that, with very few exceptions,
there Is no man so bad that he
won't respect a good woman. Many
women agree with me in that, 1 am
sure. When n girl gets in trouble
you can almost invariably feel that
she was at least partly to blame.
i think 1t takes away from a
girls dignity and refinement to do
anything SO coarse as to mash him
in the face" All she needs to do
Is to turn away with her head up
and that will go far deeper than a
slap, I can assure you.

Throughout practically all OF our
waking hours. the eyes are on duty;
contributing to our enjoyment, sc-
curing knowledge, and protecting
US from pitfalls and danger. No
wonder. with the constantly chang
ing focus for near and distant OBJ
tects. that the eye Is subjected to
considerable strain. This Is true
under ideal conditions OF lighting
and visual hygiene and is aggra-
waited under the conditions that only
too frequently exist.
II has been estimated that at least
oneLfourth OF the population Is
more or less handicapped by some
defect OF the eyes. Among the
school population. from 10 to 80 per
cent need glasses. The defects re-
quiring this correction are near
sightedness (myopia), far-sighted-
ness (hyperopia). astigmatism. and
sQuint.
NEAR sIGHTEDNEss.
The shape OF the orbit. or bony
socket of the eye, Is probably the
chief factor in the production of
nearsight. and an excessive amount
OF near work In schools increases
the tendency. Therefore, though
the schools cannot be said to be the
underlying cause Of child's near
sightedness. bad school hygiene
will undoubtedly aggravate the
trouble already existing.
Anything which causes a pupil to
hold his book too near the eyes, or
to assume STOPPING position
while at work in school, as too fine
print. insufficient light, or insult
able desk. or chair. may result in
the development of a more serious
degree OF near-sightedness. An ex-
cessive amount of near work will
cause strain in even a normal eye.
a slight degree of far sight is
normal in young children. and need
cause no special concern other than
to avoid overmuch near work.
Marked far-sightedness, however, is
one Of the most serious causes Of
eye strain, and IL not corrected may
lead to very harmful results.
Astigmatism is the effect of ir-
regularity in the shape Of the cor
nea (the clear part of the eye BALD.
This produces blurred vision
because the child can see better in
one meridian than the other. II
the astigmatism is slight the eye
corrects the fault by using its
power OF accommodation, but this
entails strain. Hence, astigmatism
ranks with far sight as cause OF
eye strain. 1t is also one of the
causes Of faulty posture, since the
child naturally turns his head and
twists his body until he gets into
the position where he can see best.

HEART OF HEMLOCK. By Clay Perry.
Indianapolis Bobbs- Merrill Co.
A tale of the northwoods lumber
camps and of the regeneration Of
Gary Holt, this story will undoubt-
edly make a strong appeal to the
average reader, with its bracing at
mosphere and its adventurous incl
dents, full Of perils from log and
jam and river.
It's central figure. Holt, is very
typical of many of the young men
Of today. restless and unhappy In
daily drudgery and routine. Holt
finds the solution to his individual
problem in a broader view OF his
work and its value.
And this story Of pulp forests and
paper mills carried with it thread
of romance that lends much to the
enjoyment of the whole.

WILLING TO
FORGIVE.

The first great factor - a hap
py marriage is love. Not only love
for each other. but love for God
and Gods people in general. Each
should bc willing to forgive and
overlook the faults OF the other.
Where there IL love. there Is will
ingness to forgive.
Suppose John comes in from work
and finds Mary tired and worn out
and supper only half ready. Per-
haps that uneasy look Is on her face
because she fears what he is going
to say. If he would go UP to her
and put his arms around her and
press a kiss to her lips. as he did
before they were married, and
whisper, "Never mind. dear, let me
help you" how different IL would
all seem to her! How muca better
his sympathy would make her feel!
On the other hand. suppose John
has q very busy. straining day at
the office. What a pleasure 1t would
be for him to meet smiling face
at the door-the face Of his old
sweetheart!
Every married couple should have
a home. A house Is not all that Is
necessary for happiness-but
home.
"a house Is built OF brick and stone.
or posts and stills and piers.
But a home is built of loving deeds
That last a thousand years"
Divorces are not necessary In
real home. God should be the
head" OF every home. He should
be consulted on all matters.
