CATARACT

THE eye is Photographic camera.
A or. rather, the camera is an imi-
tation of the eye The light rays enter
the camera through the lens and fall
ON the film or plate. The same ar
rangement exists in the eye. The eye
lids are the shutters; the crystalline
lens is the focusing machinery; the
retina is the plate. II the lens in your
camera became cloudy or Opaque, you
couldn't take a picture. If anything
happens to the crystalline lens in the
eye so that the light cannot pass
through it, then that eye cannot see,
because no light can reach tile retina
The old Greeks and Romans thought
that vision was located in the lens.
When 1t became thickened and white,
they thought that water had fallen
down In front of the lens, so they
called this waterfall by its Greek
name, cataract. We now know that
this thickening is not in front of the
lens but in the lens itself or in the
capsule or envelope which surrounds It.
This thickening of the lens often oc-
ours in old age. Just why the lens
thickens in old age we do not know.
1t may be one of tha changes due TO
age, like gray hair. But many old
people never have cataract. It is
sometimes found in young children. 1t
may be caused by other conditions,
such as diabetes. Brights disease, poi
soning. injury or eyestrain.
1t is especially frequent in persons
exposed to high degrees Of heat, such
as glass blowers and furnace workers.
1t is sometimes hereditary.
In the beginning the clear, transpar-
ent lens becomes spotted, or streaked
with white bands, the vision Is weak
ened or the patient may see double,
or may see black specks. One peculiar
symptom is that the patient can see
better in the twilight than he can in
bright daylight. The white spots and
bands slowly increase. the pupil be
comes white and the patient gradually
becomes blind.
Cataract may affect one or both eyes
or 1t may attack the eyes successfully.
1t may become stationary at any time.
leaving the sight impaired but still
present to a considerable degree, or. it
may rapidly develop in both eyes until
the patient is completely blind.
Cataract does not destroy sight. 1t
forms light-proof shutter in the front
of the eye. If the thickened and use
less lens is removed, sight can be re-
stored. This is done by the eye sur
geon, who hicks the conjunetiva, which
covers the eyeball, cuts through the
envelope which surrounds the lens and
pops the hardened lens out through
the opening just as the cook pops peas
out of their pods.
But this cannot be done successfully
until the cataract is ripe that is,
until the lens is hard enough to pop
out in one piece. If done too soon. it
won't come out clean; If too late, it
may have grown fast. The eye sur
geon can tell when the right time
comes.
When the cataract is removed, the
light can get into the eye. But the
patient can't focus. SO he has to have
artificial lenses in the form Of glasses
to focus the light rays on the retina.

The necessity of conducting a ma

dangers which lead to occupational
diseases in the chemical industries
was urged on the American Chemi-
cal Society here today by a special

the subject.
The committee report stated that
safety measures should be supplied

not listed as chemical industries,
but which carry on very hazardous
chemical operations"
The death of operatives some
months ago in a tetra ethyl plant
at haywood, n. J., was character
lied by the committee as lone Of

though very deplorable, that can
come in any industry"

The engagement of Miss Dorothy
Richardson Newton, of Bridgeville,
to DR.. James r. Porteus, of Middle

nOunced last Saturday at a bridge
