Says School Children
Not Straining Eyes

DETROIT. = Exaggerated $ ia c :
ments concerning the amount of de-
fective vision among school children
are being made continually, declared
Lewis III. Carrish, managing director
of the national committee for the pre-.
vention OF blindness, in an address be.
fore the annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Public Health Association.
"Any impression that the nation is
rapidly going blind or that more than
half of our school children need to
wear glasses is so obviously an exag-
geration," declared Mr.. Carrish, that
the true condition of affairs is lost
sight of, namely, that approximately
one-eighth of the children in our
schools are suffering from eye diseas-
es or visual defects, many of which
may be removed by properly fitted
glasses or by medical attention"

These millions must be educated, not
alone to the wonders Of nature, but as
to the direct bearing nature has upon
their daily lives. Extreme need Of ed

lures wonders Is shown by the esti-
mates that predict three million auto
twelve million books. That means
only one book to every twelfth fam
lily. 1t also means that thousands Of
newcomers will take to the road.

ties in the nature Of parks, forests,
rivers, lakes and Fairgrounds which
are available or may be made avail
able in the future.

geologic Discovery By m
Washington Professor

An important geological discovery
ford has recently been announced in
a paper published by Prof. Olaf p.
Jenkins of the State College OF Wash
ington geology department. 1t ap.
pears as No of the University of
California Geological Science Series,
Vol Is, and is entitled "Unconformity
Between the Ringold and Ellensburg
Formations, Washington"
The significance of the paper lies
in the fact that it points out discov-
cry of an exposure in the White
Bluffs, opposite and little north of
Hartford, Wash, revealing two dis
tinct formations, one everything, in
horizontal beds, the up-tilted and erod-
ed-off surface of much older forma-
ton.
This discovery confirms an impor-
Merriam, president of the Carnegie
Institution of Washington, and DR.. j.
p. Buwalda, based on their discovery
of fossil bones collected some years
ago near Ringold in the White Bluffs.
The White Bluffs beds had been
previously classified as the Ellensburg
formation of Miocene age but these
biologists found among the various
fossils fragments of the skeleton of a
prehistoric horse (Equs), which
showed later evolutionary changes
than those of the horse (Hipparion
collected from the Ellensburg forma-
ton of North Yakima.
An unconformity of the beds was
therefore believed to occur (although
at that time it was not found, which
should show break in time of depo-
sition between the two formations.
An actual exposure in the bluffs was
discovered by Prof. Jenkins, proving
DR.. Merriam's belief which was based
purely on his archaeological study of
the evolution of the horse.

ALL EUROPE TRYING TO
INCREASE SUGAR OUTPUT

NEW. YORK.-A. b. Carlton OF Col
orado Springs, Colo, president of the
Holly Sugar Corporation, returned
recently from a two months trip to
Europe. In an interview with Facts
About Sugar, Mr.. Carlton stated that
from present indications this years
European sugar crop would be much
the largest produced since the war
and should be 100000 tons greater
than last years output.
Every European nation" said Mr..
Carlton, SIS trying its utmost to pro-
duce from its own soil all the sugar
required by its people and If possible
TO become an exporter. There are
two main reasons for this policy. One
is the desire of these countries to i'm
prove their commercial position by
more. The other is the necessity
which they feel of improving agricul-
tural conditions.
The war gave European agricul-

understand that sugar beets are one
Of the most valuable crops they can
grow because the production of sugar
takes no valuable elements away from
the soil while beets increase the yield
Of all subsequent crops grown in ro-
tation with them. Consequently they
are anxious to expand the acreage
devoted to this crop as much as posi-
BILE.
"a most striking example of this
Is the policy adopted by the labor
government Of Great Britain in pro
posing a direct bounty equal to over
4 cents pound on all sugar grown
in Great Britain The reasons given
are their desire to provide employ
ment and to restore British agricul-
ture to the prosperity that it formerly
enjoyed.
"The United States has It's own ag-
ricultural problem We are produc-
ing too much of certain crops, for
the surplus of which we cannot find
a ready market in the worlds present
financial state. AT the same time we
are spending hundreds OF millions of
dollars year for other products, Of
which sugar is the most noteworthy
example, that we could grow at home.
Our rich soils have been depleted by
the one-crop system, We need diversi-
fication and the greatest possible uti-
lization OF the home market. No other
policy will do more for American agri-
culture, the foundation Of our national
prosperity, than the encouragement of
sugar beet culture, which will put into
the pockets Of our farmers millions of
dollars that we now send abroad, i'm

W. S. c. Dormitory Life\N
Broadening, Says Girl

STATE COLLEGE, PULLMAN. -
Life in college dormitory is broad
ening, because of the contacts with
girls from different parts of the coun-
try and from different types of homes,
says Olive Swan Of Centralia, who Is
a new Journalism student at the State
College Of Washington. She has made
survey of the resident students in
Stevens Hall, where she lives, and
found some interesting facts.
"Of the 81 girls in the hall, there
are only two who are sisters, so there
are 80 homes represented there" says
Miss Swan. "These 80 families are
Of many different types. There is the
Only Child who has had everything
lavished on her from babyhood, and
the girl who is the eldest of a large
brood of little folks whom she has had
to tend. There is the girl from home
Of cultivation, and the girl from a
home where books and other good
reading are rare, the girl who has had
to work all her life thus far, and the
girl who never learned to sew or do
other useful tasks. You may be sure
they learn many things from each
other, and it is the girls of strong
character and self-reliance who are
the leaders.
"The wide territory from which
they are drawn is also educational
One girl comes from China "a Rus
sian of fine family driven from her ma
tive land by the Soviet regime). An
other girl comes from Long Beach,
down in southern California. Still
another is from Occur d'Alene, Ida.
And there are 46 cities and towns of
Washington represented. OF course,
they compare notes, learning must
about the country they would not get
from school geography or history.
"It is significant fact that more
of the girls come from Western Wash
ington than from the eastern half of
the state. There are 40 from the
Coast country, while 40 are from
Eastern Washington"
Miss Swan is pledged to sorority,
but she believes that the girl who
does not spend at least one semester
in dormitory life misses an important
part Of her college education. There
are contacts and adjustments to- be
made in so large a group that one
does not have in the same way in
smaller ones in sororities.

Third-When be is out of town he

ing a brief postgraduate course.
Fourth-He asks frequently for CON
sultation or refers patients to col
leagues for special examinations, and
when his patients die asks for autop-
sizes, all because he never gets through
studying medicine. This is why he
buys so many books and subscribes to
so many first-class medical journals.
Fifth-He prescribes simple medi-

he prescribes no medicine at all, but
merely lays down some common-sense
rules for the guidance of his patient.
Sixth - He never guarantees or
promises "cure," because to do SO
would be dishonest.
Seventh-He is inwardly stickler
for the observance of rules of ethics.
Eighth-Being an honest laborer, he
deems himself worthy Of his hire and
demands payment.
Ninth-He does not put patient off
with the evasion weak lungs" nor
does he perpetuate the near diagnosis
"catarrh." He makes definite dag
