Doctor Lil- lian Lynes has been appointed in Nor wich by the league to make the official examination of all candidates for these prizes.
 The league has instituted a vigorous campaign throughout the United States and Canada, fo1 the purpose of saving children, and consequently the coming generation, from spinal curvature. Three quarters of the school children in this country have faulty spines. The percent age of incorrect backs in girls is even larger.
 An astonishing feature of the situation i is that the majority of these cases of curvature are unsuspected by the chil- dren, teachers, parents and even by medi- cal examiners themselves.

ART STUDENTS ASSOCIATION

The regular monthly meeting of The Art Students Association was held in the lecture room of Slater Memorial Hall Monday evening. After the usual business meeting the programme con- sisted of a paper by Miss Hannah Crowe'b on The New Art of the Thea tre. This showed thoughtful research. was instructive to the uninitiated and entertaining to all, from which only very brief quotation is possble "TAe true progress of dramatic art in Amer lea, is shown in the amateur, semi-pro- fesslonal theatres, and dramatic so- cieties which have sprung up in the last few years. The theory on which the new stage craft is founded is primari Y that art of the theatre exists not in the text alone, or in the acting, or in the stage decoration, but in the production as a whole, with play, acting and set ting, bound together to afford one har- mo2ious appeal"

wonderfully benefited by following the simple rules. Here is the prescription: Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of glass of water and allow to dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eyes two to four times daily.

EATS DISPUTED APPLE
 AND CLAIMS BET OFF

IT bet you ten to five those are Baldwins, said Cne local young man to an acquaintance, as he reached over and picked up an apple from a box in .a local restaurant Monday night. You're on, said the acquaintance and the long green was put up. the restaurant man obliging'y acting as stake holder.
 The duo had been arguing over the variety of the apples in question and the bet was made to clear up the knotty problem. The opinion of several of the restaurant patrons was then solicited and the consensus was that the apples were not Baldwins.
 Then trouble started. The young
