that is impaired vision.
None but specialists or optome-

The child with glasses is far more
likely to be the adult without glasses
than is the week-eyed one whose

eye defects of children may be cor

THE HANDICAP OF bad EYES

BY F. s. ROGERS, Opt D.
The race set for a child to run
in arriving at maturity with highly
developed powers, and with all ma
tive forces unimpaired constitutes
the greatest "home rum ever dis
covered Children are tripped in a
thousand ways in this race. The
tragedy of it all is that many If not
most of the obstacles could be re-
moved from the path if parents
were Just ordinarily careful and
thoughtful. Through ignorance OF
the adults, the children who are
supposed to be protected and guided
by these elders, are left to struggle,
fight, grow weary, fail and finally
accept an average gait or slower
in the great race of life. The enc
mics in the child's path are unknown
to him, and ignored by their pro-
tectors.
There are literally hundreds of
these enemies in the path, such as
bad companions, bad habits, cigar
cites, idleness, under nourishment,
bad teeth, tonsils. However we want

CARELESSNESS DOES NOT
PAY.

An old man died in our city few
days ago and over his bier a col
lection was taken in order that his
funeral expenses might be paid.
In life he was not necessarily an
improvident man. He had worked
steadily. He had saved consistently.
But. like. too many among us, he
had been unwilling to trust the
judgment of those of his friends
who knew better than he; with the
result that at his death he was de-
MED that for which in his later
years, he had striven hard-that in
death he should not be dependent
upon charity.
He had wasted the major por-
ton OF his earnings in land pro-
jeet. preached to him by an oily
tongued fakir who gave him a
worthless, deed in exchange for his
hard earned cash. Even then the
old man had enough left to main
tain himself comfortably and to see
him decently buried. But instead
Of trusting this sum to a bank or
to-, some old friend or employer In
whom he could place his trust con-
ndently, he was unwise enough to
place II and himself in the hands of
one who neither sympathized with
him nor had his welfare at heart.
When he was stricken he was
penniless. A pitable case indeed but
one which is being duplicated and
multiplied a thousand fold by those
among us who daily refuse to make
definite disposition of their affairs.
Examples such as this should be
provocative of much thought and
some decided effort TO cause more
general tendency toward definite
disposition OF our financial affairs.
Savings are safest when placed in
reputable institutions established for
We purpose OF protecting them.
Investments should be carefully
considered before being finally COM
pleted. And lsi their making, the ad-
vice OF someone who knows should
be sought
Some meTsber OF the immediate
family should always be informed
ne to how TO gain the informaticn
necessary 10 he successful winding
up OF ones financial Affairs in case
OF misfortune.
II Is true that our strivings for
life should be hardest. But since
death is the only condition Of which
we can be absolutely certain, and
its time Of occurrence Is seldom
foreknown, care should be taken
that our efforts at thrift he not
misdirected into channels which are
undesirable.
One should make definite dis
position Of his effects
