CHILDREN'S
EYES
BY Brice BeIden, M. D.

~ AREFUL attention during
the first years of a child's
~ life will prevent many eye
troubles. Such care should be-
gin at birth.
Vision has a great deal to do
with the health and development
of children. When a child Is
dull or slow in school work he
should be examined for near
sightedness or far-sightedness.
When such defects are the cause
of the child's difficulties one may
expect to see a marked improve
ment in school work and general
health if suitable glasses are
worn.
If child persistently holds
book or other objects nearer to
the eyes than fourteen inches
some defect of vision should be
suspected and a physician should
be consulted.
Children will injure their eyes
unless watched Thus, they will
read without sufficient light, or
by unsteadying or poorly adjust
ed light, or they will read too
long at a time. A table should
not be so low as to require stoop-
ing when reading. Highly pol
ished tables which reflect the
light should be covered with dark
material Over eyestraln viii
be guarded against if the reading
children will rest their eyes occa-
sionally by looking out OF the
windows or into far corners of
the room. In the same way,
when out OF doors, they should
look much across stretches OF
town and country, this trains the
eyes to accommodate, most inn
portant function.
When it is necessary to pro-
tect the eyes of children against
light glares, from water o.; snow,
amber -coIored lenses should be
worn.
After illness the eyes are easily
strained and should not be used
too soon or for 100 long time.
This is particularly true OF
measles and scarlet fever.
If children rub the eyes they
are likely to become infected.
TO prevent this, cleanse the eyes
with a solution of boric acid--one
teaspoonful to the pint of water
using a fresh piece of absorbent
cotton for each eye.

She nodded.

HOSE seals were certainly
great in the circus, weren't

They're such clever animals
that you can teach them any
thing.
Did l ever tell you about the

You see. found him when he

He was lying on the sand on

too weak to get into the water

When l brought him into the
house, Bobby asked
What are you going to do
with a seal, Foxy Grandpa?"
I'm just going to see if
can't bring him up, and when he
gets older, I'll put him back in
the ocean,
What are you going to keep
him in?" Bobby inquired with
puzzled look on his face.
I'm one Of the washtubs," l re-
piled. Bobby, will you please
run down to the ocean and bring
me a pail of salt water?"
When Bobby returned, put
my little seal in the tub and
threw the bucket of salt water
over him.
He looks better already" re-
marked Bobby, as he ran off to
fill the bucket again.
Soon we had the tub filled
right up to the seals neck.

HELP THE CHILD WIN
WHAT EVERY PARENT CAN DO

1t is merely a matter of GER
tain amount Of careful repetition
in all these matters, not permit
ting any failure or relapse 20 oc-
cur while they are acquiring the
new habit.
We make the young members
of the family self-managing. They
get themselves up for school and
they get themselves off to school.
They do not need either scolding
or showing.
Similarly we deal with money
matters. They know exactly what
the allowance is to be and they
figure on dealing with that and
no more.
Not only boys but girls quickly
learn to manage their money sue
cessfully if they are dealt with in a
regular, decisive manner.
We explain to our children how
their forehandedness and thrift
will bring added pleasure and in
creased leisure. They learn that
by carefulness they work for
themselves more than anyone else.
We do not believe in the idea
that children must be taught to
do good and to be good in order
to please someone else. They
must learn to do and to be in
order to reach standards set by
their own conscience.
Thus in the foregoing state
ments / have summarized the
excellent paper reAd by a busy
mother of three at a recent meet
ing Of a local parent-teachers'
association. Her idea is that the
deed of the child must quickly
rgturn to himself and relate it.
self somehow to his next move.
Children, she believes, will soon
become self-directive and self-cor-
receive if we introduce into what
they do the element of time and
forehandedness.
