Know
Thy
Self
YOUR EYES

You may be acquainted with the
story of the Six Blind Men of Hindu
stan who went to see" the elephant.
Each told different story of what
the elephant resembled and of course
all of them were wrong.
There is nothing which we would
exchange for our eyes. If they are
defective, through lack of early treat
ment or if the sight has been lost
through carelessness or by an acct
dent, we are all wrong. like the blind
men of Hindustan.
Psychologists tell us of the great
value and pleasing sense of color to
the individual Without it a great
void exists in our lives which moth
ing can replace. With it, the world
is ours, for the eyes are the windows
of the soul and convey to our inner
most being the real joy of living,
through this sense of color.
Guard From Birth
The eyes of the newborn baby
should always be carefully examined
and treated at once if the least weak
ness or any impairment of vision
shows itself. In the great city hos
ritals it is a law that all babies eyes
must be treated as soon after birth as
possible. The Credo method by
which per cent solution of silver
nitrate is instilled in the baby's eyes
is generally used.
The eyes of children should be care
fully examined by specialist before
entering school and at least every
year after that time in order to guard
against any change in vision or eye
strain.
~ Glasses are not always needed. In
many cases, however. the use of cor
rect lenses in early life will help and
often restore eyes to their normal
condition. Worth while, isn't it?
Goggles for Workers
Shop goggles should be worn by
all men who are exposed to the least
danger, in the mills and factories.
Do not let any false pride or the jibes
of fellow workmen rob you of your
eyes. Many mills have physicians
and nurses to properly treat all acct
dents at once. But in spite of all
precautions, there are places where
eye accidents run as high as IS per
cent of the so-called injuries.
Beware of the so-called shop ocu-
list. He is one of those fellow work
ers who is ready at all times with
dirty hands and aharpened match to
remove foreign particles from your
eyes.

its appeal today. In song and story
these two lads show themselves be
worthy of testers in any court. After
viewing over twelve photoplays in or

worthy to be shown at the grand
opening, the management has selected
for this honor THE Bright Shawl"
with popular Richard Barthelmess,
assisted by charming Dorothy Gish.
For the past fifteen years screen art
has never seen such a wonderful pro-
duction as this is nor has Richard
ever been seen in better
character than in this one, playing the
role of young dashing American
youth in quest of romance and adven,
